    Co-DC at Bama- Pete Golding. DC at Washington- Jimmy Lake. DC at SMU- Kevin Kane. 

    Those are the three names I’ve seen thrown around on TFB donor side. Common thread being they are all young with attacking style defenses.

     

     

    Jimmy Lake would be a helluva hire if y'all could pry him away. He's underrated

    He tweeted about it being “different” when you play for someone you love. I’m sure it was a dig at Mike and his style, but it wasn’t a big deal and he took it down pretty quick. 

    Much to Texas fans chagrin, there isn’t much of the dramatic turmoil you’re looking for. There isn’t going to be a flood of defensive decommits. 

    Question will be how the players respond moving forward and what Lincoln wants to do long term with that side of the ball. It’s full of B. Stoops guys. 

    I didn't mean it would be a mass exodus or anything, just a bad look in general. I can't say I blame the dude, but at the same time he signed up to play for for him, and it's not like Stoops' defense ever got better. Any idea who y'all are looking at for a long term DC? Any potential names on your end?

    That's fair.  And those names are who I thought about.

     

    Hand appears to be a huge upgrade. Hopefully, Herman can upgrade again this offseason.

    Same. Any OC's out there that would fit our system, and not suck?

  4. I'm not giving up on Evans like some. Once he sees what a healthy Ingram can do, and now that we have a serviceable line, I think he'll come around. He'll be a NSD commit, but it's still early. Tom is gonna work his magic after the season we're having. I don't see another loss on the schedule, but tech does pose a problem. I think we get it done, make a NY6 bowl, and carry that into next season and rack up some elite payers across the country. Now someone pass me some peyote.

    If there's anyone we could steal from Bama, it would be Sanders, who seems to genuinely love Texas and Stan Drayton. Noa Pola-Gates hasn't even visited yet.

    Ah, OK. I guess I was under the impression that he had visited. I genuinely believe we can and will land Sanders. Herman just has to sell the city and atmosphere of Texas. Maybe not WILL land, but we damn sure will be in the final two. I just don't think it's as much of a long shot as some are making it out to be. Same with Bru.

  6. I see what you're saying, but Ingram is banged up and still putting up elite ypc. Until he's 100% I can't see him getting more than 10-15 snaps. When healthy, there's no one on the depth chart that's better. He just needs to get healthy before unleashing the beast.

    I still think Herman wasn’t joking when he said he wasn’t taking a job without Yancy McKnight. 

    Yancy is absolutely an incredible hire. Might be the most important in terms of making our kids look like they're ready to kill people. Hell, Anthony Cook bulked up like crazy.

    You must work in the media. Everything new has to be "the best." I really like what I've seen of Hand so far, but plenty of reasonable folks would say Orlando is his best hire.

    Yeah, true. I meant to say on offense. I should have clarified, that's on me.
