2023 Transfer Thread - Texas Capitalized, ATM Victimized

Shapen and Duggan both had some of their worst performances against us, so basically half the schedule, but other than that, ousux nailed it. 

I’m going to chose to believe that we’ve been a little light on talent on the defensive side of the ball for the last few years, and that problem is being addressed via recruiting and the portal.  The cupboard was empty on defense and OL when Sark took over.   If QE can figure out how to be the Bama version of himself next year, we might be pretty good.  That is what will get me through the next 8 months.

Oh. So you're one of the guys that thinks Christian Jones is returning for an extra year, after a tremendous year starting at Tackle, to improve his draft stock by moving inside to Guard (where the NFL Payday is substantially less) to make way for 2nd year player Cameron Williams, who is still green AF. Duly noted.

Uh, no. Sydney was talking about the poster he quoted thinking Jones should move to Guard. We all knew Jones was coming back - that was the point of Sydney’s mocking.

Listening to tonight's IT livestream and Bobby & Gerry are reading text messages from their sources and they mention that UT will have good news tomorrow and they will have to do a video together tomorrow because of that news. 
Y'all think think the good news is a portal commitment OR a WR coach hire?

God damn, get a hobby, take up woodworking or something.

Probably about Trey Owens (2024 QB)

I think if they were going to have to do a new video about that news it would be quite a bit bigger than Trey Owens commitment.

Don’t they do a commitment video for every new commit?

Brunch is a combination of breakfast and lunch, where it sits between both standard meal times.

Lunch and Dinner would be some other combination, call it Linner or Dunch, whatever. But what you've done there is somehow combine Brunch and Dinner, while skipping over Lunch entirely despite the fact you'd be well past the Brunch designation, and well onto just "lunch." What in the ever loving fuck are you thinking here?

What the fuck? Brinner is breakfast for dinner. The best meal ever created 

I thought that you all were implying:

Dinner that goes into Breakfast 

NTTIAWWT

The words are switched, because really “Brinner” is a more subtle way of saying what Dinner->Breakfast really is . . .

ULM's QB who looked pretty decent against us

 

Did he?

 

I know this place loves revisionist shit, but that's not true at all.

14/19 for 108 and an INT

Sacked 3 times

Ran the ball 12 times for 8 yds.

It's a sliding scale. Considering how wildly outmatched all of his teammates were he played well.

While he wasn’t amazing, I’m surprised he couldn’t find a better school to take him.

Did he get a degree at auburn or A&M at least?

So lets see some portal jumpin'.  Adonai Mitchell your table is ready.

 

If it made Kirby Smart cry there's no telling what that same news did to Sonny.

I mean, is that some amazing sacrifice to stick with your team for two more games when it’s in the CFP and you can showcase your talents against other high level teams?

Risk of injury.  I don't think too many schools are keen to take a player on scholarship who just blew out a knee at another school.

That logic would apply to every player on both teams who plan to go pro next season but don’t have to. Is anyone crying over Jalen Carter or Quentin Johnston putting their first round grades on the line by playing?

Doubtful.  This is what, his 3rd year?  I'd guess with transfers he probably lost some credits in the shuffle.

What a dumbass   While those aren’t the best schools in the world, their degrees have so much more value than IW.  Especially when you factor in football player networking

Joe Thomas and Jason Peters are the premier tackles of that decade.

20 years ago I'd probably agree with you - but now so many players choose to opt out that you end up with Mitch Trubisky as a pro-bowl QB.  It sort of loses its meaning at that point, doesn't it?

Considering Worthy is about maximizing his dollars and brand, and that Oklahoma has no fucking dollars, and that offense from last year doesn't seem like an idea way to maximize his brand...No.

I love how the guy's original post listed like 5 accolades, the first one being All Pros, also an All Decade team, but you've pounced on his inclusion of Pro Bowls like none of his other accolades cited existed.
