That’s what I’m talking about. This is what we need. Literally cut out one Starbucks or CFA meal a month, $10,$20,50 a month May not seem like a lot but it adds up quick. Get your friends in too!

Or cancel just one OnlyFans subscription.

Finally can tell my aggy story.    Have a good insight into this kids recruitment and I’m still laughing about his visit to aggy. Dude gets his player host (I’ll let y’all find who that is) and

How do you think this is helpful? Not being a jerk, just asking y'all to keep your shit together and use common sense. In any event, I know for a fact that nothing ever happens with Texas until a

He could have if he isn't. Play devil's advocate and tell us why you feel about this guy's overall approach to his recruitment and how that either translates to the next level or doesn't matter.

Set up to donate to the general fund.  Thanks for doing this @RGBIII @closetojumping @SydneyCarton - again yall rock setting this up.  

Any word yet on LHF points?  I know that was going to happen and then NCAA came out with guidance and CDC said not for now.  A letter from LHF and making those points work for this donation seems like the game changer to me.  To get the 30k or whatever people that already donate to the LHF to donate to Texas One.  Then it gets fully weaponized.  I know yall can't snap your fingers and make that happen- I just haven't heard anything in a month or two and was curious 

Texas can turn that around fast, but there's a lot of SEC politics involved in that, and right now Texas isn't looking to come out being a dick to our new partners. So it's going to probably take some time. But unsurprisingly, everyone hates A&M.

That’s good and all, but have we reserved the plane to fly the OneFund banner on game days? Everyone knows that’s the only real way to get your message out. 

 

Oh we have some good surprises coming on that front

Since Satya isn't around, I would just caution people to not assume just because the LSU mods are talking about flipping their pick that Simmons is Texas-bound. This dude has played the media game extensively. This could easily be a last-minute head fake.

Can’t help but notice the complete disappearance of Satya & 6th Street when possible good news hits this thread.  Just a coincidence I guess.

Guess if they have to, they'd take solace in losing McKinley to OU instead. Getting some really Aggie vibes from those guys. 

If they lose Simmons, McKinley, and Mack to us it might be the biggest meltdown ever this side of Texags.

Not to derail the thread, but as good of a play caller as Sark is as an OC, I’d rather he give up those duties to someone else on game day while he’s the head coach. 

Good management would be the opposite. Sark should lean into his strength as an OC. It's his defining feature, biggest competitive advantage as a coach, and what got him where he is. Hire a special assistant to have a second set of eyes on in-game management so he can keep calling plays (which I think they did this year IIRC?).

I got a call today and my buddy says "Miami thinks they're making a late run. I laughed out loud."

McKinley is Collins. He'll wind up 6'5"/6'6" and 310, looking like an NFL bad ass. Will he ever play like one? These are the recruitments that Texas has won over the last two decades that have a low success rate. Not being a downer, but these are the concerns folks have. In any event, barring desperation from OU or LSU, I expect Texas. I am not sure even desperation helps LSU. It looks like they're being placated on this one. 

There's a notion that all of this may lead to Mack getting something put in front of him that makes him stay in state. We'll see. LSU's actual NIL is really weak shit.

Simmons committing tomorrow should make everyone feel more confident about landing Black.

I believe that's the role Paul Chryst is expected to fill (at least part of his role, anyway).

Yeah, I think we realize you feel that way. Given your behavior on this site, I've generally assumed that your life mantra is "often wrong, but never in doubt." That statement should be chiseled above the entry doorway to your garden home in Irving.

Just curious, if you have heard anything on his brother (mental make up)? He is going to be one of the top ranked DL also.  (Probably too early to hit your circle, but figured I would ask)

I subscribe to the theory that I’m never wrong and I do happen to be wrong then I go into a complete dickhead role. Sound familiar?

What are you talking about?  They are still “dabbling in the NIL game.”   
 

 

Lol. They think this is going to placate anyone? 

So the athletic department is going to hire kids to promote the athletic department? This is actualyl WORSE than what they were doing before, holy fuck. 

This absultely will get them busted by the IRS and the NCAA. Jesus christ these guys are fucking stupid.

By this rationale, you've basically told everyone that you're actually 100% wrong, 100% of the time. 

Also you're missing a "when" between your And and your I. "and WHEN I do happen to be wrong."
