Portal did close but there’s still a lot of players in it. News might be slow for a while.

You need to stop that! lol

What happened? News just stopped. Did portal close?

PAUSE 😭

Inch for inch Mugsy was better

Almost all fan bases are the same. I am retired and listen to Finebaum a good bit. They go nuts when things are not going well. Bama fans not used to losing go on suicide watch. Another thing I have learned. they all don't like us. Pretty sure I get on the bashers nerves. Always have a tendency to back our coaches and players. Especially when we are winning as many games as we are.

I don't know what this means. Beard was on his way. Smart and Terry were in over their heads. None of this is Miller half way through his first season. Outside Kentucky, North Carolina and Duke, who do we know actually puts more resources in it? I'm more concerned if Darryn Peterson is really like Kobe. Everybody knows I'm a big Kobe fan, but the first thing I thought when I watched Peterson play is that the boy played like Kobe. He's not nearly as game or tough as Kobe, but maybe he will toughen up.

He is so much fun to watch, for me, especially on defense.

We have four really good recruits coming in next year. Two are great. If we keep.our underclassmen, with these new girls, we will remain very good. The big center, who is redshirting, will have a year of training, weights, etc. She is 6'6".

The AI pics and clutter are a bit much for me in many threads. I’ve cut down to mostly just mod posts. To each his own

I’m somewhere in the middle. I’m not a Pollyanna but I don’t think the sky is falling either. I do find it funny when others complain about negative posters when they are complaining themselves in just a different fashion.

My youngest child was born in the last year the Dallas Cowboys won the Super Bowl. She graduated from UT in '17 and will be 31 this year. I grew up in the 1960s and was a big Cowboys fan. My father took me to see them play the Browns in the Cotton Bowl Stadium and Bob Lilly and Jim Brown got tossed for fighting that day. As a high school senior, I saved from working after school and summer jobs and went to SBVI in NOLA. Cowboys 24 Dolphins 6. End zone ticket cost me $55. When the Cowboys were a total No-Show at home against Green Bay in the playoffs...I declared the end of my Dallas Cowboys fandom. I haven't watched a single snap since and from what I can gather, I haven't missed anything. But I started with the Longhorns in 1968, graduated in '76 and '78 and I will never leave Horns. Hook 'Em!

Or Nebraska? Or Vanderbilt? Or Georgia?

Keeping him healthy will be the Spurs' biggest challenge. He is a freak, but rail thin. However, he is a total force multiplier. Spurs have a knack for timing their cratering of a season and landing a generational player in the draft.

Hero Kanu is a great example of someone who came in and exceeded any expectations. I, in no way was bashing Texas or saying this is a failure or anything close, simply stating we lost a lot of depth in the O-Line and I don’t know that we replaced it adequately enough considering it was our biggest concern. Everyone is quick to defend without even trying to understand the point. I think we’re gonna have an incredible season, I just worry if injuries or anything happens to our already THIN O-line we may be in a tough spot. Simple as that

Is Texas truly that far behind? Does Aggy commit more or even an Alabama?

The problem is your impatience as a fan and need for instant gratification. Let the coaches and staff work and go through their process with due diligence. BTW one of those "whatever players" from last year's portal class was Hero Kanu from bucknuts. He came to Texas with little to no fanfare and ended up being an integral part of the defensive line culminating in him being a draftable player and will be back as a key member for next year's championship run.

Lmao you guys ignore the comments about this being an overall great portal class. Typical fans not being able to take any criticism. We didn’t fully fix our biggest issue from the previous season (we did however improve, but still leaves questions to be answered). Correct or incorrect??

I never got off the bus. We have had three mediocre coaches in a row. The two at other schools are struggling and the other is commentating and working for an NBA team. It’s the “resources” that have always concerned me. Keep waiting for them to actually give the coach a fair chance to compete in the SEC.

We have six seniors or graduate students out of a team of 15. I read some comments that said some of these portal guys will not be back. Who out of these 15 guys do you think will be back? Who do you think our of some of these young Freshman, RS Freshman, and Sophomores will hit the portal? 🤘 #O JORDAN POPE: Senior.G. 61" . 180 1bs #1 COLE BOTT: Graduate Student .
