And right on schedule the overreaction’s in this thread are aplenty. Best of luck to him if he prefers to chase more money to win a couple games a year and not be developed.

Oh, I had to think about this comment for a while to understand it. You switched your antecedents midway through the comment. He was 2-2 vs Arkansas in those 4 tries, but 7-5 cumulatively vs the three in those 4 seasons. The other 3 losses were to OU.

July’s starting early this year.

When researching, I was surprised to see he had four opportunities. In those four seasons, he went 7-5 against them, with five of those wins coming the 2004 and 2008 seasons.

Nothing definitive

Will be a straight up NIL move if it happens, as expected.

In Mack Brown's defense, Arkansas was rarely on his schedule.

At least we aren’t losing the number 1 qb in the class to vandy.

Our recruiting class is cooling off. We got some roster filler 3 stars but that's about it lately

We have only accomplished this 27 times in our history, including last year. Sark & Co. have an opportunity to complete this task again. Beating our three historic rivals is relatively unique in our storied history. Darrell Royal accomplished this 8 times, Dana Bible 7 times, Fred Akers twice, and Mack Brown once. This one today is about pride, history, and the state of Texas. ———— 1903: HC Ralph Hutchison (5-1-2) 1906: HC H. R. Schenker (9-1) 1907: HC W. E.

If he came here solely because of NIL, which has been reported, not terribly surprising he would leave for the same reason.

Texas - 31 aTm - 24

This stuff is what makes college football fun. Reminds me of when in high school, when our school played against the rival last week of the season, there were so many pranks, the various clubs from each school would play each other in non-official football (band vs band, choir vs choir, German club, etc. I was a "band nerd" and my senior year both band directors bitched out their respective bands because of all the injuries from people hitting each other so hard that bones were broken. In our side, our 1st few chairs (aka the best people for their instruments) were all injured and could no longer participate in UIL marching competition because there were broken arms, broken legs, etc. Good times.

Not loving the trend of this class

Yikes Disappointing HS class. Not natty level

For UNC? Definitely!

It's Chip Brown. I wouldn't even pay attention to a thing he says

It’s all going to get harder and we have a guy who was good at recruiting acting as a nfl gem who manages contracts. Texas needs a gm with experience managing money and salary. That is not Brandon Harris. I’m not saying Harris should be replaced but we need an additional staffer here.

Disappointing. I don’t see how anybody would want to join that disaster unless the NIL package is that much bigger, which it must be. Seems that Max Wright flipping to SMU is a forgone conclusion at this point too?? Losing prospects in the trenches this close to signing day is a bummer. Hopefully there are contingencies in place or that money is now free to find immediate portal line help for 26.

If he wants to play for that sinking ship good luck

Choosing to go to UNC right now is just bad business. Might be the worst situation in p4 football.

Hahah

Look, I hate it, but for some of these kids, NIL changes the lives of their whole family. I have changed jobs and left places I enjoyed to go somewhere that paid me more, because that meant my wife could leave a job that she hated and find a better job that maybe paid less, or to allow my kids to go to a better school. I'm just saying I think UNV is a dumpster fire, but I can't be mad a kid for making a business decision, even if it's not the one I would make.

I don’t understand why we processed a defensive tackle in the class when another one was on flip watch…..
