  1. Chad Morris wasn't in the public rumor mill, but he was 100% considered. He made it very well known behind the scenes that he coveted the job as far back as August of 2022. At the Scholz Bobcat Coach's Luncheon he called Morris "the wealthiest WR coach in CFB" which got a pretty big chuckle. Said Morris heads up the HS recruiting due to his relationships.
  2. Do you think G5 programs have extra cash just sitting around? The vast majority run at a deficit and the changes of the last couple of years have only made that worse. Total Cost of Attendance, adding coaching/recruiting support staff and social media staff to try and keep up w/ the P5, NIL (I'm aware the schools don't technically pay for NIL, but the donors do, and they are the same pockets getting hit up for these additional costs) have put the screws to the schools y'all pay to beat up on opening weekend. It's mighty Texas of you, with that gigantic budget you have, to think that additional costs benefit the poors. Anything that costs money is a negative to the have nots. Texas, and maybe a dozen other powerhouses, literally print money and don't worry about the cost of literally anything. The rest of college football has a stroke every time something like this gets approved because the gap just widens.
  3. This is stupid as all get out. How the hell do you think the poors can afford to pay extra coaches in waiting?
  4. Went to the one at Scholz and I've been to pretty much every one since Fran was hired. 1st time I've seen a coach legitimately confident in the upcoming season. I know the majority of the transfers we have are guys that didn't make it at the P5 level, but we've never had anywhere close to this amount of talent on campus. Most off the players we've had since moving up didn't even have offers from a winning G5 team. The last 2 classes: P5 - 30 G5 - 18 FCS - 18 JC - 12 HS - 19 Deeper at every single position than we've ever been. Favorable schedule w/ 7 home games and Sammie State paying us to play them at NRG. Hate that we have 3 weeknight games, but fuck it - let's ride.
  5. Texas State Bobcats Use Transfer Portal To Become Sun Belt Favorites
  6. Game time for UTSA @ TXST is 3pm on Sept 7. Fucking brutal. Goddamn double edged sword of ESPN.
  7. We have a message board collective at TXST, but it isn't position specific. Have 22 players getting paid today.
  8. The committee is terrible, but putting the 20 RPI at the #1 would have been way worse than what they did. TXST went 4-0 vs aTm and PSU in the regular season. Nice to see aggy get screwed, but we got screwed more. How the fuck is Bama hosting as a 14 seed when they went under 4 games under .500 in conference? Complete bullshit.
  9. TXST DB commit William Mitchell took gold in the 100, 4x100 and 4x200. That's a pretty good day.
  10. San Marcos kid who missed his JR year w/ a lacerated spleen. Texas did offer out of HS, but never got the impression it was a committable offer. Very surprised to see him land in Austin out of the portal. I had expected him to move up in team quality from Vandy, but not to the level of Texas...or at least where Texas wants to be. His overall stats at Vandy weren't great, but he was starting by the end of the season which is a plus. Curious to see what he looks like after a year at Texas.
  11. That's fucked up. Chris is a hell of a good man. Aggie through and through, but never seen an ounce of aggy out of him. Cut his teeth in San Marcos, then UTEP and Washington State so he could finally come home to his alma mater. Hate that for him.
  12. Proper alignment from Damphousse, Coryell set up Texas State for on-field success Good read on how we've gotten our act together recently.
  13. So classy! We'll be up to DKR for sacrifice come September of 2026.
  14. Reading this thread this morning is almost better than being at the game last night.
  15. Shane showed up at our fraternity house one Saturday afternoon while we were building for a party, convinced his girlfriend was inside for some reason. Our pledge class was small in numbers (spring class - like 10 guys maybe?), but most of them were big ass dudes who lived at the gym and not afraid to scrap. Obviously not the size of Dronett, but not your normal 170# frat rats. Dronett is out on the sidewalk raising hell and the pledges are basically a wall between him and the house, telling him to gtfo, beating chests, etc. Dronett swings at the closest one, misses him but connects w/ the next closest one's shoulder, and straight up dislocates it w/ one punch that wasn't even meant for that guy. 😲😲 That turned into Dronett vs 8 guys w/ the 8 guys barely holding ground until Shane decided he'd had enough and decided to leave. Our guys were thrilled w/ his decision.
  16. This kid is fuckin' HOT. Over the last week he is 10/18 with 5 HR and 17 RBI
  17. Our Barstool is at least as cringey as everyone else's Barstool. Hell of a game all the way around and happy to come out on top. Always a huge W when we can beat the Horns - like y'all say, you're everyone's Super Bowl...or World Series, in this case.
  18. Their "ace" is a tOSU transfer who came in with an ERA of 8.64. Just looking at last year's numbers, not shocking that he may have been their best option: Saw something about this series being their 1st time playing outside this year, at all. Also, their 1st 16 games of the season are on the road. 😲😲 Final tally from the series: Bobcats 37-Penguins 4
  19. "Aggies" was trending on twitter, so I clicked to see what those moops did today and as I scrolled, I saw this from a week or so back. Damn nice pickup if he can keep his act together.
  20. Bobcats at the Border: HC Travis Bush - WR @ SWT, Co-OC DC Brian Gamble - Inside Linebackers coach OC Jeff Bowen - OL @ TXST, Interior OL coach OC Mike Schultz - RB coach @ SWT, OC @ TXST DB Adrian McDonald - GA WR Chris Brasfield - WR assistant TE Mike Barela - TE coach AC Nate Langford - DE @ TXST AC Marco Regalado - TXST grad
  21. The wheelchair was college students doing dumb shit. Last night the little kid was the PGs cousin there to watch him play and he just got excited. We're trash, and will be for the foreseeable future, so might as well have some shenanigans to keep the masses....er....dozens, entertained.
