  1. The Aggies were desperate for this guy - putting some Aggies 247 thoughts and reactions here. (A supposed insider, below. See upvotes.) (Cringe.) (The allure of the Elk.) And ... the end.
  2. You're confusing a buyout with a guarantee. - Even at Washington, the rumored new $9MM - $10MM per year contract would have been guaranteed. So $70MM - $100MM total. That's what the school would have had to pay him, if the school chose to terminate his employment. - His Bama salary could be a little above that, so the guaranteed total could be commensurately higher, assuming equal duration. - The size of the buyout determines what he - or typically the school that hires him away - would have to pay, to leave. The smaller the buyout, the easier it is for him to leave. - For example, Fisher had approx. $100MM guaranteed, with a $0 buyout.
  3. Is Jahdae Barron returning to Texas or headed to the NFL? Horns247 Staff "Based on what Horns247 was told, the feedback from the NFL has him considering using his COVID-19 redshirt to return to Texas for another season to boost his draft position for 2025." "Whether he makes his decision minutes after this note is published or he takes it all the way to the deadline, the odds are greater than they initially appeared to be that the Longhorns could be getting one of their 2023 defensive centerpieces back for 2024."
  4. Texas A&M pass game coordinator/defensive backs coach Wesley McGriff headed back to Auburn Carter Karels (Aggie 247)
  5. If we were to get Bond ... lulz. #2 overall; #1 WR. Suck it, Evan.
  6. The whole post made me laugh ... the misspelt names. The "it's not about money". The "99% sure" ... except for the 'ol wife bit.
  7. Lulz. Aggie board. Disappointed with the (lack of the) Wiggins effect - err, "affect".
  8. Wow. 12:07 PM: Bond submitted paperwork to enter the portal 12:17 PM: Bond is in the portal 12:20? PM: Bond to visit Texas This is the kind of speed Sark likes. We're not just stirred; we're shaken.
  9. Meanwhile, the goings on with the coaching staff at Auburn. Am sure it looks just great to Ryan Williams.
  10. Given the timing, can't imagine he would make the official announcement without being pretty confident about Sark being here. (And at this point, he would have zero idea of a replacement if Sark left ... )
  11. Hank South was the Bama 247 guy for a while, before he shifted to covering Texas. Hopefully he has some good sources.
  12. Bama 247, on coaching search candidates: (Whatever happens, it's nice to have a coach who is spoken of as being desired, but who may simply prefer staying at Texas, because of program it is and is becoming.) The whole article (Mike Rodak / Bama 247):
  13. Ignore these worthies at your own collective peril, kind sirs ... πŸ˜‚ πŸ˜‚ πŸ˜‚. (Note the upvotes below, as an indicator of prevailing sentiment.)
  14. - I would be surprised if they pursued Dabo (and laugh if that's whom they end up with). Doubt they go with Kiffin. And lulz at Franklin. - With Sark, hopefully this year demonstrated some things about Texas first hand - coming off an 8-5 season, to still land the #3 class, take the team to the playoffs, keep the QBs he has, the financial and other support here. - Unlike in the past, he may decide that in the long term, he has a better situation and ceiling at Texas.
  15. From Sir Ulrich's list, I want this guy! Can you imagine the DL getting tfls and sacks, and doing this chant every time? Lulz.
