  1. Past hour
  2. Good for him!! Was kind of hoping he’d go to the Uggles and play with Makuba again!!
  3. My guess is that OSU was also willing to pay more than we were for Klare.
  4. Earleywine's gotta get the bats going
  5. Good grief, we look terrible today.
  6. Was the staff passing on Klare and taking Endries really due to size? Because the NFL apparently didn’t agree
  7. It is a tribute to the Texas coaches to be able to compete with so few NFL players on the roster compared with other schools. I see a lot of Aggies and Sooners going ahead of some our Horns in the draft. How did we ever beat them repeatedly with inferior talent? If the draft is correct in assessing talent, it becomes more clear that talent alone doesn't win games. Put that into the NIL equation and think about how college ball will proceed. Will alums be willing in the long haul to pay big money for one and done players? Will alums still want to pay up when some player has to look at his jersey to remember what team he is on? Doesn't seem like alums and players will identify themselves with a particular school when NIL is the main binding agent. Where is the school pride in that? How do you maintain the link that binds alums, players and universities when it is a revolving door? The coaches that can maintain what is commonly called culture have the best shot at creating that link. It is the link that will eventually sustain the NIL giving and the program. The GM and HC are now tasked with keeping the alums involved to keep the money flowing and wheels turning while managing payroll for a wide spectrum of talent. NIL isn't too different from the old system of schmoozing to run a top flight program, but it is certainly more intense and on a grander scale. Kudos to Sark and his guys for the job they are doing.
  8. Yes they will. Manny was CB15 (!) in this draft. He should have been no lower than CB7 or CB8 (if you roll the dice on McCoy, who is a stud recovering from an ACL tear). When you look at all the guys picked above him that should not have been (Igbinosun, Davis, Everette, Neal, Husky, and Moore), they are all taller and bigger than he is. He got dinged for being 6', 182 lbs. Keionte Scott went right before Manny for the same reasons (5'11" slot corner).
  9. Texas safety Michael Taaffe was selected by the Miami Dolphins with the No. 158 overall pick in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft on Saturday. The former walk-on turned All-American put together a storybook career in Austin over the course of five years. In all, Taaffe recorded 222 tackles, 9.5 tackles for a loss, three sacks, 21 pass breakups and seven interceptions, including a pair of picks in back-to-back years against Texas A&M, fittingly enough. Taaffe started 36 games, appearing in 53 overall. He earned Second-Team AP All-American honors for his 2024 efforts. The Austin Westlake product opted to come back for one more season in 2025 to help Texas try and get back to the College Football Playoff. He’s the fifth Texas defensive back to be selected over the last three drafts, joining Malik Muhammad earlier in the day, Jahdae Barron and Andrew Mukuba in 2025, and Ryan Watts in 2024.

  11. Yeaaaahhh..read the write-up on Devin Moore. More negatives than positives compared to Malik. Injured, bad hips, bad make-up speed; 3" taller but shorter arms, smaller hands, slower than Malik. Sounds like the standard Cowboys pick. No idea why teams passed on Muhammad but may they all regret it.
  12. Taaffe to the Dolphins!!!
  13. Comic book store called heroes and fantasies in San Antonio.
  14. Crap , how in the hell did I end up on sheep humper site.?
  15. My girl Katie is at the plate😍
  16. Overvaluing our players’ draft stock is a rite of spring.
  17. Today
  18. Wow, good for him I wasn’t expecting him to go in the 4th!!
  19. That doesn't seem to matter in this draft, Jeff. It's truly mindboggling to watch this unfold.
  20. Jack Endries is either the best or second-best tight end left on the board.
