Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi! Eloi, lama sabachthani!
Akina prefers to play press man, does he not? And I'm not claiming he's flawless or some kind of savior, but I think laying the blame for our soft secondary coverage on him is misplaced.

Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi! Eloi, lama sabachthani!
I think that's just a title. Akina's secondaries never looked like this, PK just likes to play soft on the back end and he's calling the shots, IMO. I do worry that we're too slow at CB and we're really going to miss Manny. Maybe Phillips and Chester or someone else steps up and takes charge, but the entire secondary is concerning going into next season.

Texas Basketball 2025-26: It’s Miller Time
I haven't been this excited for Longhorn hoops since neither Rodney Terry nor Shaka Smart was head coach here.

Oh, hell yeah. Now just reel in Austin Goosby and Cam Williams and I will be one gruntled Longhorn.

Best offensive player in NBA history?
Agree with Oscar, but my vote goes to Wilt. Other overlooked offensive juggernauts are David Thompson, Kareem and George Gervin.

Why Does Mississippi State Exist?
I have given this some thought and whew, boy, you have posed a difficult question. All I can come up with for matching academic and athletic futility is Rhode Island. But it's in a suburb of Providence so that's already better than Starkville. Fresno St?

Week 7 2025: Texas at Kentucky
As out of left field (or absurd or insane, choose your preferred adjective) as this is, I wish Nick Townsend had been cross-training in the backfield. He did everything for Dekaney, including RB and Wildcat. He's big, monstrously strong and very fast for his size. We've already seen how physical he is blocking. Doubtless it is too late for this, but it might have provided dividends.

Texas D-Line Talk
Shaw and Brevard get more snaps against running teams. We have better pass rushing DTs.

Texas O-line talk
Yeah, I noticed Hutson whiffing a few times "downfield," missing blocks to unlock edge plays. Is he really such an OL Svengali, guiding our line, that we can't risk playing someone more aggressive? Genuine question, because to my eye he's a liability.

My Red River Rivalry Experience 2025
Or just call it The OU Game. My first was in 1967 (I was 7 and yeah I'm old) and I never heard it called different until the 90s.

Texas Basketball 2025-26: It’s Miller Time
I'm slightly more optimistic. Pre-conference play I am right there with you, but our roster is better than last year, the coaching staff is light years better, and our aforementioned pre-con is crap and allows the new teammates time to meld. I think we can break even in the SEC, maybe a smidge better. I think we reach 20 wins before post season play.

It really is weird, I can remember a time when he was excellent. Did he suffer a head injury or something?

Texas Recruiting Notes 2027: I remember watching his dad play
I think it's those pesky research doctorates holding Tech back. SMU and Baylor have been pouring $$$ into doctorate programs and research projects. TCU awards fewer doctorates than the aforementioned colleges but their entry level salaries roughly double the other Texas schools. Tech awards a lot of doctorates but their entry level salaries are lower than almost any other Texas college.

Apparently the big programs disagreed with your brothers. I mean, Holy Cross, is he studying for the priesthood?
