Was it multiple times? I just remember his freshman or rs freshman year Oregon wanted him and he wasn’t even that good yet. Thankfully we held on to him

Yep. Every offseason.

But he didn’t close his eyes and pick a random lyric out of a hat to post. 

The guy has made more than $1M in two years at Texas and he was only a part time starter his freshman year. At no point has he been “cut short”.

Texas thinks it’s got its head around the roster, Muhammad included. He’s being cute with his rap lyric choice but I don’t think this is something to really worry over.

Be cool if we could not do negotiation talk until after we finish the season+.

There isn’t an elite corner on the planet that would tell you they’re paid sufficiently. Not worried about it, he’s irreplaceable and no doubt will be taken care of

Unfortunately portal window doesn't wait for the end of the season.  Got to negotiate when you got the leverage.

I can't believe they still haven't fixed the portal window nonsense.  It's absolutely ridiculous that it coincides with the playoffs (and give me a break about spring semester nonsense, figure it out).  It got a lot of publicity last year when Malik felt like he had no choice but to leave before the Sugar Bowl.   Wait until this year when it impacts all 12 or at least 8 teams.  Just wait until someone playing for the title deals with injuries and is impacted by losing key depth pieces they should have on the roster because the powers that be in college athletics are absolute morons.

He is a great player, to be sure, but irreplaceable? There are 17 more just like him either waiting in line or waiting to wait in line to start for Texas.

The people in charge of that have shit for brains. It’s an easy fix that they wont fix until they are forced to fix it.
