Man, life in the SEC sounds outstanding! Can’t wait!

Big, if true

Weigman is the real piece to watch. If he’s out, do they try to bring in Riley Leonard?

At least Justice has enough sense to say ATM has everything in place to be a top 15 program. I think 15-20 is about right. Contrast to Josh Pate’s “top 3, maybe 4” statements.

I like the early start. All the possibilities of the playoffs are still open to the players and they won’t be deflated by watching results in other games.

All blowouts that went our way. Nice. Sark seems to have figured out that Quinn just can’t throw the deep ball accurately and hasn’t forced it nearly as much as he did last year.

Seems like Remington Strickland should have a IV or V after his name.

You’re thinking of Nico Iamaleava and the rumored total was $8 million https://247sports.com/Player/Nicholaus-Iamaleava-46101236/

I don’t know what Robinson’s ambitions are, but the niche of a Rodney Garner or Bo Davis or Larry Johnson recruiter and developer of D-lineman pays very well these days, makes you in demand no matter what happens with your head coach, and comes with a lot less stress and pressure.

Well, crap. First world problems, I guess.

Technically, Maalik is the backup. I would expect him to portal if Quinn returns. From hearing some of the IT guys discuss it, Arch likely stays if Quinn comes back and given that Quinn can’t seem to play a whole season would probably get a few starts.

Texas wins, confetti comes down, everyone is cheering, then all the lights go out and the gong hits. Crowd goes nuts and Taker comes out to deliver a Tombstone to Yormark on the 50 yard line.

Manifest!

So are the boosters trying to set up a “turn key” situation for a new coach after they fire Napier in 2024? Because that schedule just sets him up for utter failure and a Charlie Strong/Derek Dooley 3 year run. I guess it worked for them when they fired Ron Zook after three years of great recruiting and subpar results when they hired Meyer.

We are in a very similar spot to where we were in 2001. Coach with mostly his players in his 3rd year (4th for Mack) that made it to the CCG despite a loss to OU and playing an opponent we clearly should beat with a chance at playing for the national championship on the line. That year felt like we had stepped up to a new level, but left a bitter taste knowing the opportunity we had let slip away. We don’t have the regular season head to head with OSU the way we did with CU that year, but that CU team was really peaking coming into that game, having just ran all over an undefeated Nebraska team the week before that ended up playing for the BCS title. I don’t think OSU is nearly that good. Even with that result in 2001, in retrospect that was the year where Texas got truly back on the national stage. It was the first year of Mack’s 9 year run of winning 10+ games every season. It really feels like Sark has us heading in that direction, so I have to consider this season a success.

No love for the Country Palace? Great place to go kicker dancin’

I’m old enough to remember when Joe Wickline had the OL position on that list. Then we actually hired him.

Old Rock the good ag and . . . I got no idea

This guy is going to get so much tail in Austin telling chicks he’s Arch Manning

I guess for $42 million you have to demean yourself like this

A heel turn in the title match!

Yeah I guess that’s right on the 9-5 bit. Math is hard.

How does a team go 5-9 in a season? Or 9-5 for that matter? I think this is a fair take. Elko always was the most reasonable and achievable choice for them. It was all the Josh Pate’s of the world saying that they were a “top 3, maybe 4” coaching destination that got it twisted.

And it’s a good one. I don’t know the answer. Should be interesting to watch play out.
