Should be 1-2. 11-2 overall for A&M* (Typo on my end)

I remember when he was first recruited, Sark said the raptor had first round potential. Looking forward to him, potentially returning to his best with us or with another team.

In addition to what another poster already highlighted for you, he actually never entered the portal. He just made his desire to enter the portal known. But with the recent staff changes (Muschamp and Gideon) he is obviously reconsidering. So I think it’s just a unique set of circumstances.

@Bobby Burton I assume if Muschamp personally wants Williams back it means they think he will be fully back from his injury. Is that fair? I only ask because he didn’t play much this year and clearly looked a step slower. Not sure we’d just run it back with him if we thought it would be another Baxter situation.

Derek is listed as a portal entry as of 12/11/25 on the OTF Texas Portal Entry Tracker thread.

Agreed! 🤘🏼

A lot of OU and A&M fans. Seen a couple videos on social media talking about it as well. Had to drop some facts on them.

According to A&M you have to anyways because they’re in the SEC…

I don’t know if it’s been mentioned, but something to keep in mind going into next year. Teams with first round byes are 1-7 with Indiana being the lone winner. The question is, is having a first round bye really that beneficial🤔

I guess I’m rooting for Ole Miss in the Fiesta Bowl to keep our sole ownership of NY6 wins alive.

You’re right!!! I remember that being mentioned now

It’s funny that A&M complained the last two years that we had an easy schedule when they had one of the weakest schedules in the SEC in 2025. Had we beaten Florida, I think we’d have had a Top 5 SOR. Can only see Indiana, Georgia, Ole Miss, or Ohio State performing better against our schedule and two of those teams were on our schedule.

Yep! Only school to have won every NY6 bowl, accomplished it last year with the Peach bowl win against Arizona State. Great graphic, thanks for sharing

Texas is the only team to win every NYE bowl according to this graphic. If Miami wins, they’ll join us

believe OTF . Bobby doesn’t allow clickbait.

Who suggested Texas had a weak schedule?

Looking at Winsipedia, we've played Texas State once, back in 1930. Texas State was then named Southwest Texas State Teachers College (I did not know the school's original purpose was to train the future public school teachers of Texas). Texas won 36-0, led by Head Coach Clyde Littlefield in his 4th season. Southwest Texas State was led by Oscar W. Strahan in his 12th season. Texas went 8-1-1 (4-1, SWC) and won the Southwest Conference.

OTF said on a stream yesterday (maybe 2 different ones even) that he hasn’t officially entered yet

Perhaps one of the reasons for him leaving is no longer present.

Just a bit outside - I mean, just a bit south. Since I’m from Belton I’ll start telling people I’m just inside the Texas/Louisiana border.

If Texas wants Derek to return I assume the staff thinks he has healed. He still showed signs of being slowed by his injury this season. The talent he flashed as a freshman was evident, of course.

It only matters if you're pasting something from behind their paywall. On3 posted that to Twitter. They made it public.

Remember who recruited him - Gideon 😘

Low blow
