  1. Past hour
  2. Is it possible this benefits the programs like utsa or even down to texas state or la tech.They become almost like double a or triple a.
  3. Me liking every post in this thread. Dogs are the best
  4. you can talk to whoever. the dead period only prohibits in-person contact between school and player
  5. ha literally posted same thing at virtually same time... dead on. 🤘
  6. This is the second coach I've seen post for walk-on tryouts. Also the second notable coach's son I've seen.
  7. Or wouldn't have happened in the same way.... Maybe they start a year or two somewhere else, but then portal in for last year or 2... But agree, the raw gem, program developed guys are going to dwindle... Could make early recruiting even more important though, as that kid that goes somewhere else year 1 and 2, may be more inclined to portal in if given some attention / love / familiarity with Texas up front... Definitely a new world, upending decades of models of how to build a program... 🤘
  8. wouldnt've happened exactly how they did. but they still could have come through the program when they were ready to finally play. or they coulda been part of the lower end of a class who have the expectation to develop and are paid accordingly.
  9. yeah exactly. its a simple math problem/zero sum game. We are just in a wild time where the new reality is coming to fruition. with teams paying proven potential, all that will happen is that the development guys will get cheaper until they are proven and then move up the ranks... nothing will change other than where players develop. Not every year will have 25 players leave because the rosters are getting smaller. out of a 20 man class (10 insta contributers that are expensive/10 development cheaper guys), maybe 3-5 of the big money recruits you bring in that dont pan out will get their offers pulled and then 3-5 development guys who are in that no mans land of too expensive to not play but not cheap enough to be in a development role. Then those 6-10 will be replaced with proven guys in the portal. It just feels weird rn cause we are in a transition period
  10. Last but not least Frankie boy.
  11. FIFY. We pay the athletic department a lot of money to get these kind of things correct. They are.
  12. our other boy Ruger
  13. Problem is some of the best players to come through the program in the last 20 years wouldn’t have happened
  14. One of our boys Thatcher aka “Sultan of Swing”. 2025 American National Grand Victor and 2024 Canadian National Grand Victor.
  15. Not sure how many Cam Colemans and Hollywood Smothers have to occur before people stop with the 'Sky is Falling' panic. Here is my weekly reminder to the pant-pissers: We will be fine. Take a lap.
  16. How is that WI OL taking forever feels like more than coleman
  17. No sense to recruit high school OL unless they can start immediately. We lost 2 potential starters for next year and lost our only back up center.
  18. Compare to Seaton as a freshmen
  19. They will be better in '27 when they are expected to be ready.
