So the two aggy additions so far are 1) A QB that was benched at Baylor and is coming back from a major injury at UAB. 2) A TE that's been unable to produce or get much playing time at Auburn. 

Yikes.

They will get Cook and Hudson and the idiots that have no understanding of portal rankings will tell everyone that they signed a top portal class with no context.

I can't see them taking both.

Two unproven headcases/prima donnas seems like too much of a risk even for those idiots.

People were ready to cut Broughton after he got married during the spring game. You never know how this goes. Sometimes you just need a contract year and a woman to straighten you out.

I see what you did there.

And in some cases, it’s an underwhelming set of offers and helobious’s steady hand to straighten one out.

Thread title could use a *ahem* buff.

Might I suggest:

Transfer Cycle 2024-2025: Fluff Bothwell Isn’t a Name, It’s a Strategy

or

Transfer Cycle 2024-2025: Helobious’ Fluff Bothwell Gambit

The thread title is perfect unless SamMan is willing to up the ante to blow jobs.

What happened to Sark's "if you go in the portal you're gone" stance? And yes I realize he wasn't technically in it but he did announce

The guy didn’t actually go into the portal. Same shit with Blue a year or two ago. 

They wanted to keep Mitchell, but they weren’t going to match past NIL deals. Apparently he saw the light that no one was going to match that. The guy has progressed in the last two months. Maybe they get something out of him.

Cook has serious off the field issues right now, allegedly. He’s not a take for anyone paying attention. He has a lot of shit to sort through to be a viable entity at the P4 level.

God forbid you delete the space below a quote on a phone. Fucking stupid. 

Anyway, @SamMan, I laughed when I changed the thread title but I didn’t expect the kind of mileage we’ve seen now. I will edit it to something else involving you and donkey punches for kickers and punters whenever the shine for @Helobious shaking DTs down wears off.

Sounds like a game of chicken was played and Sydir and his team blinked. Hopefully he doubles down his focus with this opportunity. 

Learning your value on the market can open one's eyes to one's overestimation of oneself. The lesson: you gotta get to work, son.

OB with a few portal notes

Spoiler

A few things to get started...

1. From what I can gather, the Texas Football program is treating its Portal business with significant urgency as we head into the weekend, but there are some complications in this first week of Portal action that are beyond the control of Steve Sarkisian and Co.

a. The NIL market for good, but not great players has definitely left those on the 40 Acres with a bit of pause. As I've mentioned a few times this week, a player like Georgia Tech wide receiver Eric Singleton is reportedly generating NIL offers in the neighborhood of $1.5-2.0 million after catching 56 passes for 754 yards and 3 touchdowns this season. One Texas source told me this week that they think Singleton is a really good player, but they have a half-dozen players at the wide receiver position (including newly signed recruits) that they wouldn't trade for the chance to land Singleton. It speaks to the decline of the talent available in the early stages of the Portal when compared to the talent that was available 12 months ago. "We can’t do that and keep this team together," one source said this week.

b. Texas will not spend wildly for good players. Too much work will need to be done on the retention side in the off-season and the Longhorns know that there will be harsh consequences within their own locker room if they overextend for players that might not even start for them and then have to turn around and take care of players already on the roster that are better players.

c. There is more cash available in the marketplace from more teams than we've ever seen before. More money + More teams with money + Less quality talent = Less than desirable marketplace for a program like Texas.

d. Expect some of the biggest names in the Portal to enter in the final days/hours of the Portal window. For the teams that they might have reached an agreement with behind the scenes, keeping them hidden as late as possible will potentially keep other schools from hijacking the deal. Just something to keep in mind.

2. Everyone knows that significant help is needed within the interior of the Texas defensive line. I was told that the Longhorns would sign at least 3 defensive tackles in the Portal last week and that number might be even higher with the departures at the position this week. It's not a great place to be in for a number of reasons, as the representatives of the talent at the position that is available will look at holding the Longhorns over a barrel, knowing that the Longhorns have such a major need.

3. Former Kentucky nose-tackle Keeshawn Silver is likely to land a 7-figure NIL deal for a one-and-done season. USC and Florida are the main two schools pushing the pedal to the metal in this recruitment. This is the going rate for a guy that finished this season with a single tackle for loss.

4. Texas is not going to pay crazy money for good, but not great players on the current roster. It's very possible that the only All-SEC players that will return in 2025 from this season are soon-to-be-juniors Anthony Hill and Tre Wisner, along with All-SEC freshman Colin Simmons. There's a sense that Texas has already paid a number of players more money than anyone in the country is currently paying players and there won't be an urge to pay non-elite players at a level of elite-level players.

5. The Longhorns are hoping to finish off the recruitment of Purdue tight end Max Klare before the end of the weekend. There's a strong sense that this could get done. Stay tuned.

6. One school that is prepared to spend elite dollars for non-elite players is Texas A&M. "They gotta do what they gotta do," one source said. "There's no turning back for them once it starts."

7. If you're wondering whether the Longhorns will be a factor in rhe Portal recruitment of USC wide receiver Duce Robinson, the early word is that Georgia and Nebraska could be the favorites.

8. Pretty sure the Longhorns are not involved with Georgia transfer cornerback Julian Humphrey. Houston received a visit today and it looks like Texas A&M will get a visit tomorrow.

9. Thought I would pass this note along for those of you that enjoy Oklahoma misery. "They are so cooked," a source said. "I think they are about to enter their Charlie Strong stage. Or worse. Charlie won 5 games. I'm not sure they get there in 2025."

10. USC is a team to keep an eye on with Arizona linebacker Jacob Manu, although Arizona is hopeful that they can lure him back in with a substantial NIL offer.
