  1. Greatest of all time. It’s one of those compulsive things that kids constantly say about everything. It’s nowhere near as stupid to the recruits as it appears to y’all.
  2. I am 31 and have never used a fax machine in my life.
  3. You used to get recruiting updates from a fax machine? Like they just sent you a print news letter?
  4. The Clearinghouse is 100% going to get sued.
  5. What about T&F? OTF was talking about how outdoor T&F is 90% recruiting and something Texas just isn’t very competitive in. Also that can land Texas more Olympic medalists and which is alway a win for the Burnt Orange and Red White and Blue.
  6. Keep it going. The Clearing House is going to get sued the second they try to deny a players NIL deal.
  7. His comments at the event he spoke at show that the cult hive mind has already gotten to him. It’s also a perfect example of how the national media misses the very important sub text when talking about A&M. Elko said they are going to be a premier national football program and will have 12 draft picks. So he has set the bar at exactly where Texas is, and it’s clear that they’re incapable of assessing themselves and can only judge progress and success by looking at others.
  8. Watching Tom Herman 2.0 coach OU and Steve Patterson 3.0 be the AD at A&M has given me a stiffy.
  9. The Lombardi trophy wall is absolutely embarrassing. That’s an NFL team award. Do they also have all of Mahomes AFC conference trophies? What about the AFC west banners? I
  10. I didn’t realize Gwen Stefani is 55 years old and NO doubt was formed in 1986. I mostly associate them with the 2000’s.
  11. Nah, that’s definitely Nickleback and Creed that everyone pretends to hate.
  12. Quite a few artist made comments about Swift and the Eras Tour, not just Grohl and all of them can get bent. The Eras tour is by far the most impressive concert I have ever been to and it’s insane that Swift was able to do that for like two straight years.
  13. The ratio of championship off seasons in places like Austin, LA, Seattle and Miami vs championship off seasons in shit holes like Baton Rouge, Tuscaloosa, Clemson and Athens is firmly in the latters favor. Championship caliber programs have their players stay on campus because that the expectation and culture of the program that is built to compete at the elite level. Austin is nice so hopefully our players stick around in the offseason is the kind of unserious approach to football that defined Texas during our 2010’s dark age. Now obviously in the era of NIL having access to Austin’s corporate NIL is an absolute super power to turbo charge the football program.
  14. But you think 18 year old kids give a fuck about the local area? Football players live in a bubble and they just don’t care where the school is unless it’s a extreme outlier like WSU or Tech.
  15. Alabama behind Ohio State? LSU behind Oklahoma? Florida behind us? Oregon ahead of multiple national title winning programs? Who ever made this list is smoking crack
  16. Josh Allen has broken the brains of NFL GMs. So expect massive white dudes with big arms and mediocre college production to be selected in the first round on an annual basis.
  17. The thing that gives me hope is that the SEC and its troglodytes won’t let Texas retreat into its high castle. They will be relentless in their mockery of Texas if we fall into a slump and not being in a conference full of little sisters of the poor also means won’t be able to lord over the conference from an administrative position. Being ass in the SEC is going to be an utterly miserable experience that will make it really for people at Texas to white knight.
  18. That’s nothing new. DKR and Texas just let OU and Switzer drag their nuts all over us, Mack bent over for Saban and the SEC to come into Texas pillage our recruiting grounds. Dodds sat on his high horse while A&M and Nebraska went crying to anyone who will listen about evil Texas destroying the Big 12. Negative narratives about Texas thrive because lets them thrive by not combating them.
  19. I think this whole College/GM front office trend is going to permanently kill programs. The NFL and professional franchises in general operate as their own beasts and have their own internal dynamics and cultivate their talents internally given the unique nature of their business. Jim Nagy appears to have zero actual operations or management experience as in his whole career in the NFL he never rose above the title of Scout, no player acquisition, personnel management or football operations experience. This reeks of a situation where a company is trying to expand or diversify but they have absolutely no idea what they are doing so they just try to copy other successful operations and are only able to hire overly confident and under qualified individuals.
  20. On3 Andy and Ari had Marion on they show this week and he can across as trying to be Temu Deion Sanders and Colorado.
  21. Now I am not a surly lawyer but I am pretty sure that this just has zero legal legs to stand on.
  22. Third and Longhorn has Derrick Johnson, Alex Okafor, Fozzi and Rod B.
  23. Where have you been bub? Arch Manning, Collin Simmons, Ryan Wingo, Cade Phillips, KJ Lacey, Justus Terry Jamie French, Graceson Littleton, CJ Baxter, just off the top of my head.
  24. As someone who has plenty of windshield time and thus consumes a ton of random CFB content. In the last six months I have noticed a significant growth of a SEC Lost Cause War of Northern Aggression in regards to NIL and the transfer portal take hold amongst program specific media. Especially from Alabama, LSU and Georgia. There is already a full antebellum narrative regarding pre NIL college football amongst these fan bases and a severe victim complex regarding their rightful place in the CFB hierarchy being stolen from them. I also have feeling that should the current course hold that some of these SEC fanbases will end up hating Texas the way Nebraska fans did for usurping their rightful place in the conference.
