Still a great thread going!

@Jeff Howe Just wanted to say thank you for covering basketball the way you do. Love the sport and glad we have a place to talk hoops here as well.

Rare in our world we live in now you can trust what is reported. Agree that is what is so great about the Mods on this site, They don't sugar coat and almost always when they report something, you can take it to the bank.

Kid had issues . Hope that has gotten better. Don't need him in the mix. Great talent though.

Is the Maryland OL in the portal or not. I saw he was then it was deleted than it was put back in??

CJ, your take on this player and our chances?

Assume we get movement on the Seaton recruitment today - still not seeing that he’s in the portal yet.

I’ve always said you can judge a coach by the improvement a team makes over a season. This team is on the right trajectory now, after a rocky start. There will be some hiccups but they are moving in the right direction. This team has some deficiencies but if the play as hard as they have lately, should be fun to watch. Tanks Jeff for your work covering basketball.

@Jeff HoweJeff, the two things that have really stood out for me the past couple of games are better defense, and better rebounding. This, IMHO, is a direct result of great coaching, staying on the players 24/7 to improve their game. Texas roundball is fun to watch now.🤘

OMG I almost fell out of my chair. @Bunk Moreland, you have outdone yourself!!!

You fail to mention the fact that you have to rifle through so much click bait found on X to even get to the real stories.............So if you want to hear things first, look at sources that posts everything they hear the moment they hear it. Then, have fun figuring out if it's real or not. People don't join OTF to hear things first. They join to hear things that have been CONFIRMED by Bobby and company.

LSU

Two things would help a lot and is possible with 105 scholarships. 5 years to play. Two to three year contracts, scholarships.

outscored the combined CFP scores of Texas Tech and Texas A&M. Hey aggies and red raiders:

If your concerns are more for college football in general then, yea. This probably isn't good. But for Texas? We just have to adapt. We now have a farm system. We don't have to project how an 17 year old kid will do when he's had a year or two of development. We just have to watch ESPN. It's different for sure but it will drive viewership up. If there's some stud RB at Rutgers and Texas needs a RB, we might just watch the Rutgers game (or a rerun) towards the end of the season to get a look at our possible future. I will miss the old days for sure though.

Really interesting breakdown. I think this actually shows how valuable development still is, even in the portal era. A lot of these guys weren’t obvious stars coming out of high school, and some might not have stuck around in past years, but they became NFL players because the staff believed in them and kept working with them. To me, that’s a big positive for the program. It shows Texas isn’t just chasing five-stars or quick portal fixes, but can also grow players over time and get the best out of them. Yes, the portal changes things, but seeing this many late bloomers turn into draft picks proves that strong coaching and patience still matter a lot. That’s a good sign for the future, not a bad one.

I trust you had the decency to name these two Hanz and Franz.

We're getting errbody this thursday❗‼️💯

Okay, I'm just not going to comment on him before he goes back to Maryland lol.

@Gerry Hamilton @Bobby Burton @CJ Vogel Is this a Texas “All-In” portal candidate? 🧐

Richard Wesley has the Strahan gap. He is about to dominate everything.
