The fact I wasn’t even sure if this was a joke when I clicked it…

He would fit right in there.

Spears is not a developmental contributor.

This was too good not to share. Lol

On3's Jaimie Shaw did a "Call his shot" of the top uncomitted 2027 players. Still so early so this really doesnt hold much weight but heres what he said about 5-star PG Beckham Black Beckham Black is the No. 5 overall player in the 2027 Rivals150, and the top point guard. Black has already taken an official visit to Georgetown. He has upcoming dates set with UNC and Texas. He is the younger brother of Anthony Black, who played for Eric Musselman at Arkansas. USC, Arkansas, Miami, Texas Tech, and others are also mentioned in Black’s recruitment. Calling My Shot: Texas Confidence: 25% Biggest Threat: Duke, USC, etc.

Pat Padgett, Honorable Mention

Already noted but he's going to be with the WRs in fall camp and may cross train a little as needed.

Mods - is there any way we can have a Marketplace thread or board? I've seen some other posters ask for a place to buy/sell tickets. I have several pairs of size 12 Nike / Texas sneakers that I'd like to clear out, too and this would be the perfect place but obviously want to be respectful to your forum. Thanks.

There needs to be as that’s my favorite number 🤘🏼

What is your definition of major contributors? Then I can answer Spears will be a major contributor for sure though

So really he could have been in the 26 class to begin with according to his age. He's a LITTLE behind, but not much. It's certainly not beyond the realm of possibility that he could play this year right away, especially if there were injuries. HOOKEM

Man I like Goosby. Great kid, great player. He’s going to be a high draft pick and play for a long time.

It's hard to be physical playing in a zone-blocking scheme where you never put your hand on the ground and fire off the snap with your pads low. My biggest gripe is how bad they look in double and triple teams. They would execute the first part ok, but then let delayed blitzers and looping DLs run right by them to make a sack or tackle. Flood's OLs have been bad about that since he got to UT in 2021. If I were Sark, that would be enough for me to make a switch, but he seems to love Flood and protects him.

The hope is it definitely changes at the quarterback position. If everything goes well, Arch Manning is QB1 in the conference. I could definitely see Tennessee RB DeSean Bishop putting up major numbers in that offense to get into the conversation at the end of the season.

Great list CJ! do you see this listing changing by the end of the season? If so which positions ?

Was tough not including Jelani McDonald given the expectations around the program for him, but Bolden and Hubbard definitely deserve the 1st team mention.

Thank you my friends. @Joe Zura @Bunk Moreland

Hard to argue with much. You pretty much nailed it IMO

Thanks. If you were to bucket these 15 into groups, would it be?: Major Contributors: Isaiah Johnson, Elyjah Freeman, Matas Vokietaitis, Austin Goosby, David Punch, Mikey Lewis, Amari Evans Developmental Contributors: Marcus Spears, Bo Ogden, John Clark, Lewis Obiorah Practice Players: Joe Sterling, Coleman Elkins, Mantas Laurencikas, Anton McDermott

Great list 🫡🫡

The All-SEC teams will release here shortly, but wanted to display the ballot I submitted this weekend in Tampa. Feel free to ask me about selections, or just let me know if you disagree!

Just turned 18 in July. Yes he will be participating in training camp from the start.

Yes, we are definitely looking at things differently. Our defense was rated nationally much higher in every measurable category than our offense. Those stats don't lie. I'm looking at the entire season as a whole, not individual in-game failures. Yes, the defense had some busts from time to time in coverage and running lanes that were frustrating, but overall those were minimal compared to the offense. Most would argue that in this age of no targeting and constant PIs with high-powered up-tempo RPO offenses, a solid bend-and-not-break defense like PK's is not a bad thing to have. It keeps your offense in the game, but your offense has to contribute and keep scoring and eating the clock. Sark's didn't do that last year for most of the season. I thought the UM game was the first time the offense truly complemented the defense all year. I think Sark was looking at a season where they were number one and missed the playoffs. When he analyzed things, he decided some change was necessary. Since he knew he was the offense and wasn't going anywhere, the only change that could be made was defensively. And, having come from Bama with Saban's style of defense on his mind, and having played Kirby and UGA many times and experiencing the aggressive Kirby-ball firsthand, I think he just decided to try something new. He probably reached out to Muschamp and found he was interested, and then it became an easy decision. I don't think we will see overall a whole lot better defense this year than we saw last year, but I think we will be better as a team because our offense will be a little more consistent in maintaining drives and scoring TDs in the red zone. Sark wants complementary football. I hope the offense does its part and he finally gets it.

Disgusting!
