Is he your John Mateer of this year CJ 👀👀😂

Kamario Taylor is going to be such a baller for MSST next year. If he stays healthy, he took a lot of hits in not much time last fall.

I can only speak on those I’ve watched enough so this is my top 5: 1) Chambliss 2) Arch 3) Stockton 4) Leavitt 5) Reed

Who gives a crap if the guy started another thread? You don't have to read it or post in it. Just ignore it if you don't like it and it will soon disappear if the first page. This board and some of its posters are starting to sound like the same idiots who made the IT board suck so badly. Unfortunately, they might have moved over here. I would 1000% prefer new threads over these albatross novel-like threads that take you a day to read, go off in 15 different tangents, and you have to read the entire thing for context. I also don't mind a little off-topic thread now and then, especially during the off-season. It makes board more interesting. Bottom line, by trying to play board-police you ruin all new threads. @Txhorn1213 Sark obviously likes Flood and trusts him. Why, only he can answer that. If we never get an answer to that question we will only drive ourselves crazy thinking about it. Sark, and CDC to some extent, are responsible for the production of this team, and we have to believe they are not going to keep a guy around who is not doing their job. That would be professional suicide. Hook'em 🤘

2025 Auburn is a 9-10 win team with Byrum Brown

We just saw Miami and Indiana showcase 2 elite OL groups filled with upperclassmen on the depth chart. As of now nearly every single backup on the Texas OL will be a freshman or RS freshman. The staff could be confident that the younger guys are developing, but having multiple vets along your line makes a big difference. If we want to play 16 games you have to be prepared for injuries along the OL. Texas took 5 DL last portal cycle. The same should’ve been done this year at OL. Yall can tell people stop complaining…of course our opinion doesn’t change anything. But fans have a right to be very disappointed as we’ve been looking forward to this OL portal class for months

I think he is stating that this is not the first post - there are been a lot about this. It's very narrow sited to say that he has underperformed since sark has been here. He has developed DJ Campbell to be a draft pick, Cam Williams was a 3* that got drafted (Should have stayed another year but he made that decision) Goosby is a 3* that developed. Hayden Conner 3* that developed into an NFL draft pick. Jake Majors 3* that did a great job as our center (Came in as a tackle) and is on an NFL roster. Kelvin Banks 1st round pick. Christian Jones, completely changed his trajectory from a backup in college to an NFL draft pick. He has generated more OLinemen draft picks since being at Texas than texas had in the DECADE prior.

If I remember correctly. He was the one that did not want to take a picture with the UT coach lol

I would need to see more of Meredith in person. Sanchez was the best corner prospect I have ever seen at the high school level.

Kamario Taylor is very gifted … he may be the big jump guy this season … if he has enough around him

Is he a D. Sanchez level player? Meredith I mean

Think it was a lot to with his brother … which is an extension of him, and is seen as negative to him … which is understandable

Yall are doing a fantastic job at covering all things UT. This is definitely the best site for UT info out there 🤘

My favorite is probably JayQuan Snell, but I don't think that one is going to happen.

John Meredith III at North Crowley. On the OL, two of Camara, Swanson and Miller is a very strong in-state haul as well.

On top of that who is your favorite on 27 if they are different

Kyle Flood completely changed the OL dynamic at Texas from a national joke that hadn’t had a first-round draft pick for 20 years into a team strength by 2024. The 2024 line wasn’t perfect but it was one of the best in the country and to say otherwise is to be blinded by confirmation bias. He developed Christian Jones from a terrible waste of talent who could barely walk straight into an NFL player. He developed Goosby from a skinny basketball player into a likely top-15 draft pick. The whole country was laughing at Kelvin Banks after his all-star camp performance his senior year, but look at what he became. Jake Majors and Hayden Conner got so much crap from Texas fans, but under Flood they became NFL players. His recruiting has been up and down, no doubt. It’s insane that the cupboard was so bare last year. But that’s every bit on Sark and his roster management as it is on Flood. Flood’s IOL development has not been great, but I think that’s as much a problem with the “large humans” philosophy as anything. And recruiting massive linemen who can’t move was fully a Sark-endorsed idea. As bad as the line was to start last year, the job Flood did to turn it into a solid unit to end the year does not get enough credit. Has he made mistakes? Absolutely. I still think the reliance on unproven young players last year was inexcusable. But yall are going to run the man out of town, and we are just going to have to live with the results. But be careful what you wish for.

Clearly all Sark’s fault. Flood does no wrong. 😉

Texas parked itself at the top of the offensive line market and never really came down. When true difference makers didn’t enter or agents couldn’t get deals across the finish line, the staff chose to keep aiming high instead of pivoting to what was readily available. That wasn’t disorganization, it was intentional. But intentional bets still have consequences. The interior OL market was thin from the jump, home programs did a solid job holding their ground.

It’s might be to early in the cycle to ask but who is your must get recruit

"Isn't their whole O line gone?" -> I think you answered your own question.

Starting a new hate flood thread i see.

Just go post in one of the other 500 threads started about it. That’s the problem. We don’t need 5 new threads a day started on this topic.

Listen I hear you. But this is a message board, this isn’t the Texas board of Regents, we can bring these topics to the attention of this site for a reason. Flood is a Cristobal leaving for Miami situation away (how we actually got Banks) from being a certified bank robber of UT funds as an employee

Wut? Aggy is not making the playoffs this season..
