If I recall the interest waned because the amount he cost.

I think Mosley can be really good. Does he have the speed of Golden? Maybe a full offseason can do him well. I think Wingo can be a dynamic player. He is extremely inconsistent. Parker Livingstone is a good deep threat but not much more. If he was WR4 then I’d be solid. We need true guaranteed WR1 IMO especially in a big year for Sark and Arch. You can’t bank on “I think the WR will be good” but you need to “guarantee the WR will be good”. Of course injuries can happen. If you have seen some posts, I said you may have to make some moves and push some guys out the door. I’d prefer to keep Mosley and Wingo but some guys seem like JAGs to me. Maybe the Bowl game Will change my mind.

Saying our WR are “mid” misses the mark. Just because you don’t have a Jeremiah Smith or Randy Moss doesn’t mean they’re mid. We need OL & RB more than we need WR. Period.

Was joking. Only thing I disagree with you on is Mosley he is a stud and will be golden 2.0 and one thing I won’t stand for is Wingo disrespect he was all sec 2nd team even with his issues this year.

lol happy to let mods here chime in since they can see information 🤣🤣 definitely not him/her. I just have a strong passion about our WRs. Was extremely disappointed in them and don’t see a a championship level group. Hope I’m wrong

I don't know that Singleton moves the needle. There was a reason our interest waned after we got him on campus and saw him in-person.

Isn't this Earl's first ballot? I agree his a HOF but not first ballot. Don't see any of the finalist he should make it in over. I hate the Cowboys but really hope Darren Woodson gets in. It should be a crime that he isn't in yet. Who i see gettign in from the finalists -Drew Brees -Larry Fitzgerald -Frank Gore -Eli Manning -Darren Woodson

Hashtag are you back is this your burner??

They didn't lose to a shitty Florida team either, Oh and they beat Ohio State and we didn't. Our WR room is and was young yet explosive, they aren't "mid". Mark this post, we currently have 3 WRs that will play in the NFL. That isn't mid. Will we get a receiver in the portal? Yes, I would be shocked if we didn't. I would also be shocked if they backed up the brinks truck for anyone. Don't take my word for it, Sark said essentially that this morning. He said "don't waste my time".

Read my post above. I said OL is number 1 need. Indiana also didn’t play 5 top 12-15 teams. My difference in opinion is that I think our WRs are mid and not championship level. Wingo can be but you can’t rely on that. If he is your number 2… then heck yeah There is also no true NIL cap. That is separate from revenue share. If there is some donor pushback on amount then make room by pushing JAGS out the door. Also there is also a rumor going around, some WRs on the roster are waiting on Coleman’s decision. Id also be extremely happy with Eric Singleton (if that rumor that he is entering too is true)

I remember that game well. Little did we realize that Mack would soon come to Austin to take over.

I'll add that we already have a dynamic WR on the roster that just needs to be consistent.

No doubt. Woodson’s wait has been a travesty.

Not being mean, what exactly do we have different opinions on? Our Offensive line, running game and pass blocking was our weakness on offense. Do you disagree? If we agree on that, then we agree we should shore up the OL and RB room as priority. LB would follow as we lost two big contributors. We have lost one receiver, with someone ready to step up. WR is a luxury in the portal this year, not a priority. If you get a good one, great but I wouldn't be chasing stars at the expense of signing better priority needs. Ever heard of Cost, Benefit Analysis? I'm looking for bang for the buck, sustainable models. This is a business, it needs to be treated as such. Look how Indiana got where they are. You can laugh and say we aren't them, you would be right. They are better, they are where we want to be and should be.

WR is an extreme need. This is where my pushback is. Our WRs are extremely mid and even Bobby says WR is a need. I am aware OL is likely need number 1. However, if you want to maximize Arch you also need legit WRs. Sark has also only won win with round 1/2 WRs. We might have a day 2 pick (just maybe in Wingo) Until he proves he can be Kirby Smart, then give him all the weapons we need for both Sark and Arch

If there's a position for Texas to look at that aren't P4 or even FBS, it's kickers/punters. Went 3 of 5 in 2024. Hit from 54 and 51. Missed from 57 and 51. Went 16 of 18 this season. Hit another from 54yds. Finished 4th in FG% in FCS.

This got brought up in another thread, but Priest's three-year NFL run (2001-03) is as good as any running back in history. There's no telling how different his career would've gone if his body hadn't let him down.

We have different opinions. I’ve said what I believe and even some of the mods said better WRs likely leads to more wins. Coleman would be great but I’d also be happy with a guy like Singleton, Williams, TJ Moore, Marsh, etc. We have one WR where teams have to game plan for (and he is extremely inconsistent). Two changes a lot.

Thirty-one years ago today, Priest Holmes scored four touchdowns for the Longhorns in a 35-31 win in the Sun Bowl over a North Carolina team coached by Mack Brown.

A good IOL and running back would have had a better chance of changing the outcome. Once again, Our issues this season weren't associated with WR unless they were trying to block.

Coleman also tries to play hero ball instead of going out of bounds and fumbled the game away vs alabama.. so hes prone to game losing plays as well. Not like hes perfect. I think all of us would love coleman in a vacuum, in a no cost world or in an unlimited resources world. The pushback you are getting on coleman is purely due to WR seeming like a want (WR/DB) rather than a need (RB, OL, LB). so if they can make both work without sacrificing needs for wants, go for it. Just seems like we are being primed for a "you can't get everything" world, despite some taking "All in" to be an unlimited funds.

You mean like how he fumbled the game away against Alabama?

It's also harder for safeties, for whatever reason, to get in early. The fact that Darren Woodson has had to wait this long is absurd.

People were stacking the box to attack our weakness, the OL. It had absolutely nothing to do with our WRs not getting open. Guys were running free all year, early in the season Arch couldn't get it within 5 yards of open receivers. Go see the first play of the season as an easy example. Are you representing Cam Coleman? Sure reads like it. The juice ain't worth the squeeze. That money is better spent elsewhere. Ask Oregon about big money receivers and injuries.

There are some real scumbags in the HoF. Earl definitely fits that bill, but it doesn’t mean he doesn’t deserve the professional accolades. Seems like selective punishment.
