WR was seen as a sort of weak link in the class for most of the year.
We ended up with 5* Wingo, Dubose, Livingstone, and now Butler so that turned into a nice haul.

The career that refuses to end.
The portal is mostly fool’s gold for lineman. The size required makes identifying them in high school really simple so there aren’t too many difference makers on G5 rosters to pluck.
The TexAgs veto had a chilling effect on their program. Understanding they could be canceled midair, coaches are unwilling to resign to take an aggy job, lest they end up with neither.
On the other hand, let’s be happy for the analysts getting on field aggy coaching positions and 10Xing their pay.
Another thing is that great players made a ton of money during their playing days so coaching is just a hobby for them. Are they really going to be burning the midnight oil and sleeping in the office? Yea, right.
Deion is so lazy is boggles the mind, but what does it matter? He doesn't need this career to feed his family he just needs something to get him out of the house.
The vast majority of portal players are trash. The few that aren't are almost always gobbled up by elite programs like Texas.
So if the plan is to have the foundation of the program be G5 or bottom tier P5 rejects, your program is in a lot of trouble.
