Respectfully, this is an underinformed assumption. The mods have repeatedly said that info re OL is being kept under lock and key at the behest of various agents. They also reported that 10-15 players visited last weekend. We heard names for like 5 of them. Bobby has also said the staff feels they could wrap up OL by the end of the weekend if they need to, indicating there's more lines in the water than we know. Just my opinion, but I think we are operating with a severe information deficit and should avoid drawing conclusions like this at this time.

With Everyone knowing offensive line was our biggest need How in the world do you only have 3 o linemen visits completed a week into the portal? One of which wasn’t even offer worthy? Is Flood even trying at this point?

Jan 20th is "officially" the last day that students can add a class at UT for Spring enrollment. However, I remember Silas Bolden was well beyond that when he finally got all of his paperwork in order, so there are exceptions. Furthermore, who's to say anyone would miss Spring conditioning or Spring practice if they're not enrolled for Spring? At this point, who is going to do anything about it?

From what I gather, you seem a loyal and rather amicable fan. I commend you for that. This week I’ve watched half this seasons games. Particularly the offense. With attention to the blocking aspect. Here’s what I’m confident in saying. Singling out Stroh beyond the oddity of season long coaching decisions is wrong. A few observations about the guys upfront. The two biggest hits to Arch during my half season review were at the hands of Goosby versus UTEP and likely Brooks versus Kentucky. Hits that easily could result in injury. Believe in the first 5 games, Campbell and Baker accumulated 12 penalties combined. At least two of Arch’s picks versus Ohio State and UF but thinking all 3 were after penalties put us behind the chains with resulted in impatient play calls and impatient QB decisions. Hutson/Robertson were never clean themselves. And oddly enough, Stroh didn’t play versus Kentucky. I’m sure our worst offensive performance was because of him though. The final offensive play of the OSU game sure as hell wasn’t off his side. Now, Campbell and Baker got tagged with 9 penalties the remainder of the season. Stroh had none incidentally. But there’s evidence that Baker improved over the last half of the season. We want to attribute the improvement to the Robertson/Hutson combo. Because that means Stroh was the problem. You might also think to which game, which seem to turn the offensive tide. 4th quarter MSU, right? You might watch that quarter and see how that combo worked together. And note who it was. Now, I’m not speaking to Strohs ability, but I’m pointing out some of the things that occurred rather than making him the scapegoat, which has been done repeatedly. He certainly loses his feet too much. He does make an effort to initiate contact. He’ll gladly start on a double in pass pro then peel and help elsewhere. I saw multiple instances that he was clearly using his head to get things done. And I sure as hell saw another player who had more plays in which that player never engaged a defender. That wasn’t Stroh’s approach. Stroh probably had fewer negative plays than a few others for that matter. I am damn curious about decisions surrounding the choices regarding the offensive line. We will never know, and it sure doesn’t make sense. But the story that is told and the finger pointing is misguided and inaccurate regarding how things went down on the field. Unfortunately all the parts contributed to falling short.

Kyle Flood as soon as Wes King stepped foot in Moncrief

More click bait 😂 What a waste of Arch. Sucks we are going to have a generational QB and not maximize what we put around him.

Wes King, you are a Longhorn!!!

Hope it’s ok to share something personal/non-football related here. Been dealing with some financial difficulties recently that have been tough. Have tried to get a raise at work for months to no avail. Lots of stress, especially with the holidays and all the expenses that go along with them. Anyway, I called Brandon Harris and said I wanted to transfer to Texas and now my boss doubled my pay overnight. Thanks Brandon!

Oline discussion always is interesting for several reasons. For one, run and pass blocking generally ignore the impact of the non-Olinemen. Most people don’t have a clue about individual responsibilities on a given play. And unless you run it in slow motion and rewind every play multiple times, a person cannot see it all. So when you say inexcusable, how often over the years have you rewatched games? And over that time, was it just the Horns?

My last meme of the night, but my mood below. Im wishful thinking more negative happens tomorrow ((maybe, a reverse jinx) but s/o to the OTF staff and fellow fans for riding with this boat together, lol. On the bright side of things… at least I don’t have to stress about my Dallas Cowboys choking this Wild Card weekend….

What was that last word? And multiple reports said he was entering the….

Nick seems more like a Vegas guy so maybe he goes to UNLV🤔

For Bobby: “The Stalking Longhorn “ (instead of the stalking horse)

I’ve found myself staying up late in case the good ole days of Sark After Dark return but they have not unfortunately lol

Personally, agreed! But I gotta get the jokes off.

Heard he’s going to Indiana

If there is ever a year for a young lineman to take a massive leap next year is the year with Nick Brooks assuming he is at Texas.

Idk dude it’s a tough one to predict right now because Ohio State is also on a massive losing streak in the portal. I think they only have 1 commit the entire cycle so far or something. So it’s basically like who’s most likely to lose this guy an right now it might be them.

quote, not quite. 🤦🏻‍♂️

We just do not have to hear about inferior Texas websites, thank you.

Things went well with Zion Williams Wednesday afternoon. He arrived later in the afternoon. Again, Williams entered with a do not contact tag.

Imagine what this place would be like if we had lost to Oklahoma or the Aggies……. Chillllll people

Yeah the alcohol was good. And the pizza was a hell of a lot better up there then down here.

Just my prediction based off the extremely strong pattern that has formed over the last week.

Goodnight my fellow degenerates 🤘🏼 p.s.
