Sounds like the smoke is real. Although strange to take a lateral move when you’re about to be able to sell a top 5 pick at your position (Simmons).

Just watched a highlight video of Kohen Brown on youtube that Texas Recruits put out. He looks like a 4.3 guy. I do not remember Ffrench or Lockett looking anywhere near this fast on film. I am dying to see what he does in Spring.

Yeah just saw an article on the athletic about how "fearless" of a passer Mateer is. Incoming: 5 INTs vs the first good defense he faces in the CFP.

Corn. Fed.

Agreed. I bet he gets at least 5. PSU doesn't roll through coaches like many others. The portal can help but PSU has to show more commitment to $.

Yeah I'm pretty sure the high end guys will want to go to Oregon, LSU, Ohio State, even Penn State before going to the Aggies.

That NC winning coach is fool's gold. Lucked into Jameis Winston. Did not "develop him"- less than one year of development factored not at all into what Winston was in 2013, which was lightning in a bottle. Fisher ran FSU into the ground and got ran out of town by Dabo Swinney. I do not fault the Aggies for not doing anything with that "NC winning coach". I DO fault them for being idiots for hiring him. And that recruiting class was just an amalgamation of recruiting points. The whole thing was just bolstered by a boatload of highly rated DL. Takes more than a good DL obviously.

With coaching carousel so active, maybe there won’t be a lot of dynamic play callers available

0 snaps this year. Could be a good player, but not one I envision Texas pursuing for immediate play time

It's the aggies...no matter how good they are, they will Aggy it up against us. They literally got a NC winning coach and couldn't do anything with him. Had the best recruiting class ever, couldn't' do anything with it.

Need experience IOL, doubt Texas purses.

Exactly. As long as Reed is there we're good. Remember that this was our down year while it was their best year in more than a decade. A lot of guys that made that team what it is are leaving. Same thing with OU. Maybe Mateer is actually injured but I'll take a guess and say that that "Gamer" s#*t doesn't work in the SEC, unless you're a Caleb Williams type of guy which Mateer will never be, not even in a million years.

ND will be in the CFP. travesty.

Same. Though, as long as they have Marcell "One Read" Reed running the offense I feel fine. Plus, the losses they will have on the OL as well as losing Concepcion and possibly Craver SHOULD negate any advantage getting a better OC would have. We DEFINITELY need to out recruit TAMU on the OL in the portal. It will be a major failure if TAMU is better than us on the LOS on either side next year.

At this point it just feels like our situation with georgia and Kirby. Sark just has elko’s defenses and his teams figured out.

Do you think concessions don't NET Texas money every time they have an event? I think you think Texas gets more money from participating in the Citrus Bowl than they actually do. That is not the benefit. The benefit is the extra practice and playing time for backups, which this scenario could also achieve.

The payout for the Citrus Bowl is on the order of $8 to $10 million, which is split 16 ways between conferences. I would be shocked if the Texas couldn't come out with better profit from this.

Concessions, logistics, staffing, who is gonna broadcast it? You are thinking WAY too small

For an average ticket price of $200 for a low estimate of 80,000 people, that is $16 million before sales of anything else. Texas couldn't put on a football game (a la enhanced spring game, which they used to do for free) for $16 million?

Are we going to talk about how going to 16 teams and this whole conversation doesn't matter too? Everyone get your bingo cards out.

I believe Klein getting the Kansas st job is possibly a bad thing for Texas, Pete K's defense has matched up very well against his offenses clear back to Kansas st. Anyway Elko may make a poo hire, we will see.

Florida loss!

This makes no sense. Texas would foot almost all costs for this

So what?
