  1. Don't sleep on peroneal. This is sports, after all.
  2. It is possible that they will fall for some line of reasoning to the effect that BV was hamstrung by the chain of command issues as regard personnel. While this may be true, it is unlikely to be the reason for last or this season's on-the-field results. If they give BV more time while vacillating on their org chart model, they might even dig themselves deeper. One can hope.
  3. Live-in nanny is a major mistake unless old and ugly. It won't matter whether he even experiences attraction if she thinks the nanny is potentially a rival.
  4. Easy to get snagged by a thorn, no?
  5. This. We are TEXAS, and CDC was a bases-loaded home run hire for AD. They are not randomly going to find themselves where we are.
  6. Forget practice squad money. Go back for another degree, load up on NIL, and dare the NCAA to stop you.
  7. Now that they have absorbed it, the name from ETSU is available.
  8. 'd'ran'ta
  9. Bleeding maroon as they do, they didn't wish to cause alarm by wearing uniforms that could appear to be soaked in their blood. Also, sometimes when they aren't pretending to be the Texas Longhorns, they have enough time also to pretend occasionally to be Texas Rangers.
  10. Fanduel has us +650, tied for 2nd with Oregon behind tOSU (+600). Unless we get some unlucky bounces, I like our chances.
  11. What a huge difference in the number of scholarships occupied by JAGs compared to a few years ago.
  12. Spring Ball '25: Slow RBs that can't catch
  13. I try not to be a grammar nazi, but, "Let he?"
  14. Put rah-rah aggy-looking imagery on the packaging along with the GUARANTEE that 100% of all proceeds go to NIL funding for students being recruited to A&M. Earmark the NIL for athletes choosing between UT and A&M.
  15. Help please for an old. My son wants to watch the Barstool / Kayce Smith video in which she first claims A&M is above Texas and then later declares they are almost like us, just like OU and OSU. I am having trouble finding it. I have done some searches but clearly without an obvious success.
  16. College sports as we know it has to end because it was illegal and had a hypocritical pretense of fairness. People who feel an affinity for their hagiographic recollections of days gone by will mourn its passing, as will those who benefitted from its features (whether good or bad). Southwest Airlines used to be Texas-only airline with sex-kitten stewardesses. It's not just death and taxes; the inevitable includes change and responding to it with denial and lamentation. College sports are changing, not dying. Yes I know I used it as both a plural and singular collective-- sue me, grammar police.
  17. Muestrame un buen perdedor y voy a mostrarte un perdador. pardon my rusty Spanish
  18. I think we should be stone-cold serious about mocking aggy the Texas A&M Fightin' Aggies. It diminishes the genre of aggy Aggie jokes to mix in silly misspellings. Come to think of it, maybe we should abandon making light of them in any fashion whatsoever.
  19. Sometimes a bruise is replaced by pigmentation changes in the skin as the original fades. It essentially becomes/causes a giant freckle. In that sense, one can acquire a "permanent bruise."
  20. Never go full cloak room
  21. Mate selection is one of the most important choices a man can possibly make. And to (roughly) quote Chris Rock: "People say there's never a reason. There's always a reason. Just don't do it."
  22. We have seen good running backs before, whoopee. ASU has a locker room full of guys we processed. They are in the playoffs because they ended the season on top of the very-evenly-matched Big 12. They have not "been there before." They have already exceeded their season goals. They will fold up like a cheap tent. We are going to mudhole them. Preseason rankings don't tell everything, but they offer some insight into the talent pool at each school-- talent that needs to be deep in order to compete in the post-season. The lesson so far in this year's playoffs is that those teams that started out the season as playoff afterthoughts turned out to be, wait for it, playoff afterthoughts. Not all those teams have had the chance yet to be eliminated. We will oblige ASU on NYD. Mud. Hole. Hook'em!
  23. The same pressures that caused the bag game before and that have fueled NIL-mania will exist, should any salary cap result in compensation that is less than what the "market" would have found through its own equilibrium. Phil Knight is still going to want Oregon to be stacked. What form the extra-cap compensation takes remains to be seen, but money finds a way.
  24. There's still plenty of time to start private auctions on tamperBay. I'm not worried we'll miss out on a suitable portal receiver.
  25. Foot-first slide = instantaneous down
