  1. Didn’t Duvernay steamroll first rounder Delpit? I remember a gif somewhere of this.
  2. He and Tony have made Texas football a major force on social media. It’s been a bright spot in an otherwise down few years. Can’t say enough how much I’ve enjoyed their work.
  3. Right, I’m following that. My point is that you’d think going somewhere like Georgia or Bama and taking a little less money up front and winning + NIL would be worth more than the over market value aggy is allegedly paying.
  4. It’s honestly wild to me to see what they’ve been able to do. I get the paying players angle and all, but if you’re getting paid by Georgia, Alabama and whatever other winning program, why would you bother with aggy? At some point you’d have to think winning matters more than getting a little more money - especially in the NIL era.
  5. This backup is a freshman. He’s due for a god damn mistake.
  6. I just want Casey to get the chance to kick the shit out of ousucks.
  7. Seriously - the fuck is this shit? Some kind of fucked up territorial justification to take away PUF funds? Some kind of weird “you need us” cry for help? He looks like a bitch for this.
  8. I wondered this, but the only rules I had to compare to were football catch possession rules. Those fucking suck too.
  9. Agree that he doesn't have to be a take due to speed alone. There's plenty of guys that are fast that also happen to be able to play football.
  10. Ah then it’s Bynum lol. What a weird year that was.
  11. Yeah I was splitting hairs with it being the 08 season. I watched the game and the team played great. Maryland looked lost in last ~2 min or so.
  12. Agreed - considering Texas just rolled over for OSU in the Fiesta Bowl in 2009......oh wait.
  13. This right here is what I like to see - the more this happens, the better.
  14. This is a school that LITERALLY left a conference to not have to get crushed by Texas again. Why is anyone surprised here?
  15. I fall somewhere on this spectrum. It’s encouraging that Texas now has a document that supports its claims that the song doesn’t have racist origins. The problem is the already established narrative and the reaction of people who don’t experience life the same way the football players do. I don’t envy Sark for having to support his statement that everyone will be there for the song but the only way this works at all is for the entire team to stay - even if they don’t sing. Not everyone sang in the past anyway. Hopefully the team votes to look at it as an opportunity to appreciate fan support and has everyone agree to stay. If not, I think we’ll be having a conversation about getting rid of the song sooner rather than later. It just won’t be worth the continuous trouble.
  16. Precisely. We don’t know. Assuming in the absence of certainty is part of the problem and serves no purpose other than to twist the narrative. The report simply acknowledges that racist tendencies existed back then (they do today, obviously), but that there’s no documented connection of the Eyes to anything explicitly racist. To say the song is racist is factually incorrect until proven otherwise.
  17. There a lot of fine takes in this thread - including several about whether or not it was stupid to pay Dak. This take is fucking stupid.
  18. The remarks that PK "let" Petersen name Lake a Co-DC just to make Lake happy/stay at UW make more sense now that we've seen what's happened since.
