You already take the smoke for free!

He didn’t produce this year at a high level but he’s still a young player but we need more big bodies with higher impact!

I'm not too worried, have a feeling there will be plenty of LB's to pick from this portal window.

Can we get Mack Brown to pull him this way?

Please elaborate

I actually like that Bama and OU play. I can live with either outcome: Bama win- first round exit for OU, undoes their biggest season accomplishment, possibly makes it look like a fluke depending on how bad OU win- makes it look even more like Texas was the better team than Bama Same for TAMU Miami: Miami win- first round exit for TAMU, 0-2 to end season, crying Aggies leaving Kyle Field Aggie win- makes it look like Texas was the better team than Miami I’m also happy that Oregon and Tech play- Daddy Warbucks #1 vs Daddy Warbucks #2. They deserve each other. Hopefully Nike U can send Raider Rash out crying. MOST IMPORTANTLY- I’m happy each of them have 2 opportunities to lose before playing one another (1 for Tech because of the bye). Would hate to see any of them play one another, because it would be like rooting for which testicle to have kicked.

Bobby, uninformed or inaccurate stuff is a message board tradition. If you remove all that, what do we have left? I will never quite understand the mentality of fans wanting the program to push people out the door assuming they go about their business the right way. With NIL and the portal, things have shifted, but I’m not quite to that point. Obviously we can improve, but this team didn’t lose games because we were physically incapable. We simply did not make enough plays at the right time. We were far from healthy too and the schedule was the most difficult to navigate. I am woefully uninformed on NIL allocations and with that I cannot begin to discuss the proper moves regarding the roster. So I take the guys for who they are and their upside, which for many players that upside is realized over the years and not necessarily from year 1.

I did hear Oklahoma as someone to watch for North Carolina LB Khmori House.

Wishful thinking lol

Yes please!

RB- Baugh (if Wisner leaves) or Durham (Durham with Wisner) WR- Ryan Williams or Nick Marsh or Cam Coleman OL- Midwest corn fed white boys DL - likely good LB- Experienced depth DB- Depth

Cameron won’t come to UT

I think he sticks at edge mostly. He’s better going forward. Smith and Lefau provide a very sturdy base at the position. The ceiling comes with Barnes and Atkinson.

@CJ Vogel do you anticipate Spence playing LB at all next year? I know they like him at edge, but he was so good at Arkansas at LB. Seems like he could fill at least part of the void left by Hill.

So head to head matters but only sometimes? Why were we ranked behind Vandy in the last poll even though we beat them and it was WORSE not closer than the score indicated. BYU being ahead of us is just a f-u to Texas for thinking we could possibly bring a valid case to upset this stupid approach. We need to expand now. We have teams opting out of meaningless bowl games because there’s literally zero point to playing them for the older guys. Common opponents ND loses to us too. Miami does deserve to be in but somehow they magically moved up 8 spots with a win over Pitt versus us moving 3 spots and being ranked ahead of them with three losses and a dominant win against the number 3 team in the country. We shouldn’t have lost to Florida?? Fine, then kick bama out and put BYU in because they shouldn’t have lost to FSU. G5 has no business being at the table and effectively created a bye for the 2 teams that play them. Instead we get a Bama OU snooze rematch? Horrible, just pitiful. The irony at this point is that we wanted TAMU and OU to go deep enough in the playoffs and get smoked by osu and UGA so we again have an argument posthumously that they got it wrong and we should’ve been dancing.

@Gerry Hamilton has entered the portal

Josh Cameron or Amare Thomas make a lot of sense. Cameron makes the most sense with how things are going at Baylor.

He's used to getting that free Oregon money.

I’d agree with @TexasFanatic Dont think you need an all conference level guy at linebacker, but certainly not a developmental piece. Kentucky LB Landyn Watson fits what I would target right now. Just someone who can give you 10-20 quality snaps and could step in as a starter should someone go down. I’m looking for a David Gbenda level role to be filled at LB out of the portal.

That’s worth paying non-premium NIL for. Not getting into a bidding war for
