Wasn't just chatter. Teams tried. Glad they didn't succeed.

If I remember correctly there was chatter mid CFP last year of teams trying to poach Simmons and Muhammad away. I’ll just say…I completely understand why many coaches have no interest in coaching college anymore.

Saw something that is would be the 2nd fastest speed recorded in the NFL this season and 3rd last season. That’s insane. I THINK it was out of all offensive players too. Not just QB’s

Absolutely. Just pointing out how its easier for some schools to go all in on certain position groups or players when they aren't having to devote heavy dollars to retention (or at least not near as heavy as we do).

Supposedly he hit a top speed of 21.7, which is incredibly fast, especially for a QB with his size.

Can he kick into the end zone. Asking for a friend.

This kicker from Illinois has been clutch this year. could be a good option 2x all big ten kicker. would have to fight OSU for him probably

Thanks. I’ll shut down my “National Champion Arch for Heisman” website.

We still have quite of bit of retention to do but I’m hoping the attrition helps free up space for multiple big hitters in the portal

Well. It certainly worked out for Tech and Bailey and Hunter in this case.

It's a lot easier to offer up spots for one year mercenaries when they don't have any competition on the roster and can walk into starting gigs. Tech didn't have to do much, if any, retention last year and still significantly less than Texas this year. Stark difference in the programs and how they have to approach the portal.

That would have been fun to see .

You’re lil’ that dude Arch is THAT dude

Sark was definitely a in your face QB.

7 figures if I remember correctly

Solid take, Michigan not exactly the powerhouse they were, considering all the other stuff a much expected win for Texas. Good start, would be cautious with Arch for Heisman and Texas #1 to start the season, a lot of questions to be answered and a legit schedule in 2026.

Post Cheezit Michigan presser… it was a bit irritating how the Michigan HC kept emphasizing how QB Underwood was just a 1st year QB while Arch Manning was a 3 year QB at Texas so of course Manning would perform better. No one corrected him. Did everyone forget that this was just Arch’s 1st year as QB1??

@Bobby Burton @Gerry Hamilton Last cycle we were pretty in on these guys and I wonder if it ever came out how much more Tech paid than our offer to get these guys? I think few people recognized Bailey could be a stud, but we were after him pretty hard. I feel like Lee Hunter would have also been a great hit for us.

I might be one of the few members here that actually saw Sark play quarterback live at BYU. I used to follow him because he went to El Camino JC as did my mom. He was a very fiery quarterback. Similar to Pavia. Fast forward to today, and he is very professional with the media, however, you just know behind closed doors he is as fiery and passionate as they come. No way were we losing to Michigan. He had our young guys ready for an alley fight.

Thread full of armchair professional coaches as usual. There’s a reason sark is making these decision, So the only thing you can do is, sit back, shut up and let it unfold.

He really needs to focus on the guys catching the ball rather than dropping it. Don’t know what he was thinking.

Shipley wasn’t doing kickoffs late the season.
