I agree with you. I would add that the playoff committee has taken strength of schedule into account in some fashion, even though we can’t decipher what the criteria is. Take Baylor’s 2014 team. They opened with a 45-0 win over SMU, followed by a 70-6 win over NWST in week 2. I week 3 they won 63-21 over Buffalo. They later beat UT 28-7 and beat TCU, the league’s co-champion 61-58. Overall they finished 11-1. But the committee, citing SOS, deemed that Baylor should not be included in the top four even though the top four included three one loss teams (Alabama, Oregon, and Ohio State) and an undefeated FSU team. So the committee somehow did factor in SOS. I think the real issue is clarity of the SOS, and how it is weighted in the overall analysis. I would really hate to see losing the thrill of in-season marquee intersectional match-ups because the SOS is inconsistent and opaque.

My favorite countdown, thanks Blake! Most excited for the schedule, lot of cool road trips and big brands. Player wise, I would love to see what a fully healthy Colton Vasek can do and for an already proven player, Lance Jackson in year 2. Let's Go!

I’m 22 years old and can’t remember any team since I’ve been old enough to know what’s happening that has this much talent and star power and all of it is in key positions. QB, WR, Edge, LT and more. Just can’t wait to see it on the field and hopefully they can mesh it all together and play as a group

I’m excited to see a healthy justice terry. Really excited to see biles in coach boom system

Arkansas SG Maleek Thomas staying in the draft. Impactful for the SEC race in 2026-27 IMO

I'm excited to see how Sark balances all the skill talent the team has on offense. Arch shouldn't have to play hero ball with as much help as he has. Probably most excited for this group of WRs.

Louie Gohermt 🤮

Accurate. “STrictLY NiL rECrUiTMenT”

I know Todd. I have no doubt he wants what's best for the boy. What's best for the boy is to secure his financial future.

everyone is up in arms about the kid not doing any OVs. What does he learn at an OV that he hasn't learned at all the other visits he has had and all the meetings he has already had with coaches and players? He is choosing to finish school a year and a half early to get started sooner on college. Good for him to know his goals and get them done regardless of outside noise. not sure the comparison to Ojo...i haven't seen any videos of him being manhandled by other recruits in camps.

The same family in gilmer that adopted camara also was involved with helping (not sure if they adopted) another former longhorn.

Gerry has reported numerous times that it's a complete NIL recruitment.

Feel like there is a narrative that has started on this board that Camara is strictly looking for a payout and he’s another Ojo. I’ve seen interviews with Camara and read articles that give me a totally different vibe. In interviews I’ve seen with him he comes across as very mature and serious kid that has to deal with some very challenging life events (lost both parents). He just moved to the US as an exchange student a couple of years ago after losing both his parents in France. I believe he came over his soph year so he’s trying to make up 4 yrs of hs in 2 1/2 years. He’s trying to graduate by December. That requires him to take 6 summer school courses. The thought is he will not be able to balance recruiting visits in June with the required course load over the summer.

“If” is loser’s excuse. UCLA was the best team in the Final 4. Deal with it.

Read the article you linked. Then follow the link for the NGO that’s raising money with Canada, and who leads that NGO. Then, connect the dots of his circumstances and the “shocking coincidence” of events for where he is now (from France to a guardianship in Gilmer, TX with no family relations involved…what are the chances 😉😂). I am sure this is a good kid from a very difficult background, and I wish him nothing but the best in his life and career. But, I’ll remain highly skeptical of how he’s being marketed by others and I would question if football is priority #1 here for anyone involved. Is the financial risk really worth the on-field reward here?

And if our All American had a mediocre game we would have beat them by double digits.

Good decision.

Louie isn't involved in Camara's recruitment. Todd is.

Looking forward to making at least 10 games this year and of course all playoff games if it happens. I am always excited about tailgating at all home game.

Thank you!

I completely misread Eli Drinkwitz. I like the cut of his jib.

@Blake Munroe hinted at this initially during our livestream in conjunction with the selection show on Monday. We knew Dylan Volantis wouldn’t start against Holy Cross. The only question was whether Schloss and Max Weiner would go with Harrison or make it a bullpen game. The Longhorns are going with the veteran lefty, who has been better at Disch-Falk than he has on the road.
