Babers said today that teams are hurting Texas defenses by formations that are forcing Texas safeties into coverage since PK does not allow the nickelback to travel.

So going forward, Texas might adjust by having better cover DBs that can play both nickelback and safety... interchangeable DBs.

Long explanation starts around 40:30 mark.

 

Coverage, speed, and interchangeable are key characteristics for nickel/safeties going forward.  Shut-down corners that will press more often too.  

 

I agree with Rods theory that Texas wants to man press more.

I think not succeeding at Texas was the reality check. No shame in transferring out to get playing time at a smaller school. 

Actually yeah there is....If you don't have a future in the NFL you're better off staying on scholarship and getting a degree from UT then chasing some bs pro football career by going to UNT...

Damn Mattess Mack really fucked up then. How will he ever recover?

 

No matter the player most have the dream of making it to the league until they don’t. They have a better chance of that by transferring and playing. Just because they didn’t work out her doesn’t mean they can’t be good at their new school. 
 

Also they probably didn’t have much of a choice to stay

The portal works both ways. It’s not just disgruntled players choosing to leave, half of the portal is filled with kids that were pushed out.

I don’t know why this is so hard for some people to understand. I’m sure Sark was nice about it, but Brice, Turner-Gooden and Allen, were all essentially told they should look elsewhere.

Not surprised. We'll see if he can win the starting QB job at Oregon. 

Interesting. I’m sure he didn’t come cheaply. That’s a lot of cash for a redshirt year.

That is interesting because Gabriel is there as well.

QB of the future. 

The interesting part of it is, what does this mean for Austin Novosad?

Even more interesting is, he was actually committed to those guys as a HS recruit before UCLA snagged him late.

Moore is either okay with a "redshirt" year or Gabriel is gonna go somewhere else. 

Gotta be the first. No competing program is recruiting Moore as their starter next year.

I guess Baylor is after Malik? They should put together a nice NIL package for Novosad. They need a QB.

I want to say I read or heard on some stream that those two are cousins? 

If you're Katfid, they're the same person.

The Agroids are in a veritable tizzy - a tizzy, I tell you! - over McCoy.  A DB from Oregon State.

So none of them found quite the demand from the big boys they were expecting. Hopefully this is a learning experience for other prospective portal hoppers. (Assuming they don't need to jump in the motherfucker for reasons of they'll never play a down at Texas)

I doubt these boys really wanted to leave, but the "honest conversation" Sark has with guys at the end of the regular season informed them where they stand in the pecking order. They may have had no option to stay at UT and still pursue a FB career after being passed up by true freshman & a former walk-on plus being recruited over with an über talented class of '24 group coming in.

Crap ... looks like I'll have to redo that.

Yikes.

Extremely douchey if written by Raiola. If a fan submission, still douchey that he reposted it.
