That strategy may have worked 20 years ago not anymore especially in the NIL era. Some of these kids just came out the womb the last time Texas played for a natty.

Do you know something that we don’t know @Gerry Hamilton?

Lucky you have NO say

Feel like Dell because of how much he has already donated to the university.ll and it has its history is directly linked to UT

Could be waiting for Pat McAfee show to fire back up again.

Will never be Buccees, cofounder is an Aggie not to mention his son got caught filming people undressing while enrolled in SMU law school - the irony

All of this right here 🙌🏾

I can’t see Texas ever going with something like Tesla or SpaceX because they’re so politically charged. I don’t think the Texas brand would welcome the sort of negative attention Elon brings. I say this as a huge Tesla/SpaceX fan. If I’m thinking on building up the Texas brand and enhancing the national footprint, I suggest they do something like Dr Pepper or Ford. But I’m a huge fan of HEB. The Astros do it.

Dell won’t contribute to athletics just academics.

As usual Bobby nails it

Because Indiana is the hometown favorite?

I almost went with that lol

Love it! Haha

Men’s Basketball signs Marcus Spears Jr. The nation’s top-ranked player in the Class of 2027 reclassifies and joins the Longhorns for the 2026-27 season. AUSTIN, Texas — Marcus Spears Jr. has signed an Athletic Scholarship Agreement (ASA) to play basketball next season at The University of Texas, head coach Sean Miller announced Friday. Spears Jr., the nation’s top-ranked player in the Class of 2027, has reclassified and will join the Longhorns for the upcoming 2026-27 season. With the addition of Spears Jr. to the Texas roster, the Longhorns have moved into the No. 1 spot nationally by 247 Sports in the organization’s ranking of overall basketball recruiting classes. The ranking includes the combination of high school and international signings and transfer portal additions. Miller and the Texas staff have added 11 total newcomers to the 2026-27 roster. Spears Jr. (6-10, 210), a forward from Frisco, Texas, was ranked as the No. 1 prospect in the nation by ESPN in the Class of 2027. Following his reclassification, he is ranked as the No. 4 prospect nationally by ESPN, No. 7 by Rivals Industry and No. 8 by 247 Sports in the Class of 2026. Since ESPN began its recruiting rankings in 2007, Spears is the sixth top-five national recruit to sign with Texas, joining Avery Bradley (No. 1 in 2009), Myles Turner (No. 2 in 2014), Mohamed Bamba (No. 4 in 2017), Dillon Mitchell (No. 4 in 2022) and Tre Johnson (No. 5 in 2024). Spears Jr. played his junior season at Dynamic Prep and averaged 15.1 points, 7.6 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game while leading the team to a 39-5 record and a run to the Chipotle Nationals semifinals. Competing as FaZe in the Overtime Elite (OTE) league, the team captured the OTE league championship with a perfect 19-0 record through the regular season and playoffs. During this spring’s Nike EYBL circuit, Spears Jr. was the only player to rank in the top 10 in both scoring and rebounding as he averaged 20.9 points and 8.7 rebounds per game. Per ESPN, he is one of just four players since 2022 to average at least 20 points, 8.5 rebounds and one block in three straight EYBL sessions – joining Cooper Flagg, Cameron Boozer and Tyran Stokes. Spears Jr. helped Team USA win gold at the 2025 FIBA U16 Men’s AmeriCup in Jaurez, Mexico, on June 2-8, 2025. He started all six contests and averaged a team-best 14.0 points to go along with 6.5 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 1.8 blocks per game while earning FIBA U16 AmeriCup All-Star Five recognition. His older sister, Cari, is a sophomore All-American outside hitter on the volleyball team at The University of Texas.

“Indeed” was founded in Austin Tx

Assuming I have to live in a world where this comes to pass, I agree with Burton on Dell. AT&T is a close second.

The longer he waits the better for Texas? @Gerry Hamilton

I think a Buccees Beaver on the jersey would be about as Texas as it can get.

A Longhorn football jersey with a small silver Apple logo patch would generate enormous attention. Apple rarely places its logo on third-party apparel, so such a partnership would be perceived as exceptionally exclusive. Combined with UT's academic reputation, Austin's tech ecosystem, and the Longhorn brand, it would likely become one of the most recognizable sponsorships in college sports. NVIDIA or Oracle would be cool as well.

I wouldnt be surprised if we are negotiating a package deal with both of their agents to make it a compatible fit where they both make bank. I think both realize their chances of success are higher if other teams can’t focus them. They compliement each other’s styles as well. Sure LSU may make us pay more, but it would be worth it to get both of them.
