I thought the portal deadline for our guys was Wednesday? Or is Niblack a grad transfer?

😂

Yeah… the guy who couldn’t pick up Sark’s offense after spring ball, summer training, and a full season was simultaneously able to knock out 60 credit hours (mostly upper division) in two normal semesters and two summer sessions.

😅

For 20k, I’d think about hanging out with the Funk Doctor 

Better watch that money 💰, because he’s likely to steal it and spend it on drugs.

Well. 
 

 

So to recap:

1. People are already signing rev share agreements even though it hasn't been passed and the DOE is saying Title IX applies

2. It was a multi-year rev share agreement 

3. Anyone can leave anytime they want

Got it, cool. Seems healthy.

One of my favorite moments of the Sark era so far.

Oh, pardon the multiquote longcat; I'm on the road between Merced and San Diego and posting on my break before heading into the stink-ass smoky nightmare of LA.

Orakpo and Kindle

Orakpo had to gain a lot of weight before he could hold his own.  That's what sets Simmons apart, he hit the ground running as a freshman.

 

Orakpo's senior year started the trend of Big XII officials never calling holding against Texas' opponents. He was held, sometimes awfully, on every play. It was almost understandable, because he would've killed about 3 QBs if they hadn't.

One thing I have noticed is that Bobby often oversells the doom.

 

Yep. Especially where Texas is concerned.

You're too cheap.

The lack of outgoing portals and especially the lone portal out being a portal in should tell you something about the buy in, culture and NIL structure in place to build a long term roster like Georgia and Alabama and Florida and Ohio State had during their dynasty-like runs.

It's all about infrastructure, a system and a continuity factor regardless of personnel that gets you into a situation of long term sustained success.

It really is staggeringly stupid. 

What's stupider; what he says, or people failing to put him on ignore KNOWING he's going to say stupid things?

No CR, but by Fall there might not be a DOE

Such a good movie that the Mickey Rooney bits can be forgiven (kind of, they're pretty tough).

Having worked in Hollywood, I can attest to the strangeness of much of its decision-making.  But with regard to Breakfast at Tiffany's, in 1961 it was fine to racially stereotype Mr. Yuinoshi, who was not comedic fodder in Capote's novella.  It was not okay to celebrate Holly Golightly as written, because she was a charming yet bottom line oriented prostitute masquerading as a socialite..  She ends up married to a third-world tribal chief who can bejewel her properly.
Derail over.

I think I remember the film. 

Based on the lyrics, the writer always seemed like a pretentious douche to me. I hope the song was based on reality and his girlfriend left him because she wasn't into pretentious douchebags.

The transfer thing isn't that extreme. It's the normal transfer period for any college student.

Now some schools could get clever and have 6-8 week periods throughout the year. Or a 12 week semester style. 

Exactly. He's a college student. He has decided to transfer schools, nobody would care except for some reason lots of people think that if you're a student who happens to play intercollegiate athletics then you should be restricted from transferring schools unlike every other student.

OTF said that Niblack was a good teammate -  Gunnar Helm's father attested to it - and that Niblack was a serious country boy who would go fishing every day in Lady Bird Lake.

I tuned into that podcast for the first time today and subscribed right away.

Longhorns and Lunch, or Texas and Tuna, I forget the name but I'm on the list now and will find it easily tomorrow when I take my dogs for a long walk.

 

Niblack sounds like someone who just wasn't a personality match, and not in a bad way.  Not at all.
