If he can't work out, he's going to return. The decision to turn pro even as a late-1st early 2nd, when a healthy season would mean a big jump up the board. He only has 22 starts, that's not a lot of tape and he could make enough from NIL to make his return worth his while.

I'd rather save the money on a transfer QB and spend it on the OL or some skill position players

You have to be all-in or all-out on portal QBs. It would be pretty stupid if we invested a pretty penny for multiple developmental years of KJ Lacey and Dia Bell, only to just bring in another high priced transfer whenever it was time for them to finally play. I’m not going to take the time to look it up but I’m gonna guess Miami and Indiana have basically quit recruiting notable HS QBs.

As of last Saturday, I am still “very cautiously” optimistic for this year. Texas is a little down, but not out.

Portal Needs: 4-5 OL 2- DL 3-4 LBers

He’s going to create a problem for Jerry. Jerry seems to hate drafting Longhorns BUT he can’t help drafting OL.

There is a side of me that thinks that Sark would like to be joined at the hip with Arch. No, this season has not gone as planned for either one of them. So, Sark says for Arch to come back and lets try it again and reload. Then, for whatever reason and certainly the hope would be that Arch does light it up next year and they find success together as a pair. Then they can shop that success to an NFL Team and go together to do it on Sundays.

Big fan of the dynasty. Great post season battles. Like Texas/USC in the Rose Bowl.

He’s still deciding but he should go.

I see how it came across that way, but I did not mean to imply that it is a clean and easy process. More of like a risk reduction or better yet, playing the odds of a proven QB on the field.

Its an exhibition game and change to practice against another team without counting towards the season record.

but if you bring in a proven QB from another school then sark wouldnt get credit for the development, right.

Great to hear the surgery went well. I expect him to recover and do quite well in the NFL. With the Chiefs. lol

Prayers for a speeding recovery. Go make some money in the league young man.

No

Upgrade in exhibition opponent.

I can't imagine he would return. Especially if he gets a good draft grade. He had a decision to come back last off-season and chose to return instead of going to the NFL. Can't imagine he'll make that decision again after playing through an injured knee this season. I'm praying he comes back to full strength and continues to be a great representative of Longhorn nation throughout his NFL career on and off the field.

Plan next year is probably Arch... I'm with you on the transfer portal obviously being the smarter play than Lacey/Bell though. It takes playing in real games to develop as a QB. Why waste a season developing our QB when we can just buy one like Miami?

Good to read his positive prognosis after surgery. Hope Trevor makes a full recovery soon.

Foolish to return

I was more alluding to if Sark is still at Texas. If this team goes 8-4 with this years roster, that would put his job at risk. As far as Arch's future, I feel like he would either go pro or come back to Texas. With how the Manning's operate I just don't see him transferring to another program. Anyways, apologies for the pessimistic outlook lol. Hopefully the team builds on the Ole Miss win and we don't have to worry about any QB drama down the road.

I think Sark does whatever it takes to keep Arch at Texas if he doesn't go pro. The optics would be really, really bad for Sark if Arch transfers and does extremely well while looking like a complete different QB.
