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.

That's just not true. Another Muhammad would be expensive and hard to get. He's really good.

You hardly hear his name called ...which is because nobody throws his way.

Pay the man his 💰

Yeah, those residuals pay big money.

Trainers and Uncles have to eat too. Time for some schools to pony up and support some players or see them poached by promises by others. The choice is up to the schools. What a sad time this has become. Loyalty to the dollar versus the school.

You sound like the aggies. Let’s just go get some rough country boys who want to be Longhorns and send ‘em to Junction to get tough and learn how to bleed burnt orange for their school! Fuck life changing money for them and their family! 
 

stupid fucking post. The cheating was always fucking there, it was just localized to 10-15 programs. NIL has evened it out for Texas. You want to go back to 2011-2022, do ya? Those years were full of great horns who bled burnt orange and loved their school so much they skipped the singing the Eyes after games. 
 

Go shake your fist at the sky and change your depends somewhere else, old man. I’m going to watch my time play in the playoffs.

Dude, did you not watch our defensive background in the first few years of Sark? Having talent back there is critical. You can’t fake it with weak CB’s and safeties. He is legit and difficult to replace.

I do my day job because I like it and because I'm paid to do it. It has benefits other than the fungible payments. But I still ask for the payments.

EDIT and I prize loyalty in my employees, but they wouldn't work here forever without fair pay.
