Texas and Oregon put the CFB world on tilt with their respective NIL efforts. Many alumni bases are reacting pragmatically and trying to build something competitive of their own that fits their specif

Color me surprised that people promising NIL as enticement have not followed through at all and those who have done everything by the book have set expectations that will be met.  It's almost lik

Would any OU players actually transfer to Texas though? So much built up hate there with all the horns down stuff, gotta be a tough mental block. Maybe true freshmen can do it..

Very few players actually give a shit about "rivalries" like fans do.  A lot of these guys are friends.

There isn’t as much hate as you think.

True. Many of the guys consider college a means to an ends - I remember hanging out at a party with Kentucky and Louisville basketball players. Many grew up together and played AAU ball together. For them, the rivalry means a game against friends. There isn't much built-in hate.

Remember when Danny Green was partying with Lebron like 15 minutes after their finals game?  It's just a job to these guys these days.  Maybe before the 80s it was real but not now.

agreed.  the all star games, camps, etc. give these guys a chance to meet a lot more these days.  this isn't like the days when there were unlimited scholarships and you chose to go to OU, Ark, or Texas with no numbers game to deal with.  

I do think the hate is pretty bad between Mich/tOSU and Auburn/Bama.  Texas OU not so much, the roster of OU makes it a different dynamic from those other rivalries.  

Texas/Aggy could get back to that again a bit I think.

So he can share carries with Achane?  Should be an interesting recruitment - again.

Achane is apparently already upset with the lack of carries. He would transfer if they added Evans. 

The headache of Evans to run off a good back doesn't make much sense for aggy. Evans is talented as hell but Achane is a good back too.

Achane is the only home run threat on that roster. Please let this happen.

Not a shock but still a big one. Sadly I'd assume he ends up at Aggy 
 

All the big programs backed off him because they didn’t want to deal with his bullshit, no? We’ll see who’s changed their minds. Could see OU or LSU trying to bring him in under new coaches

He's miles ahead of Casey Thompson and Hudson Card. Would be lucky to have him at Texas

Rattler is not good. Going from shit to slightly better shit isn't going to fix anything. 

Not to mention he's a huge mental case that will cause all types of problems on the roster. He's the exact type player that Sark should be running off on the current roster.

Slightly better shit is a bad take. hes a good college QB and better than what we have. He can sling it.
