New Texas RB coach Jabbar Juluke has updated his twitter account with a new profile picture.

He added, "it's different on the 40!" 

If my hashtag knowledge remains true, the Texas RB room mentality is going to be a definite strength in 2026.

Florida just hired Duke’s Chris Foster as their RB coach. I believe Sumrall is expected to meet with Baugh tomorrow at his house in Georgia. Seems like this one is leaning towards him staying a Gator

In what world is that leaning towards him staying a Gator? Not saying it's not 50/50 right now but hiring the Duke RB coach is not getting him leaning toward staying?

It was reported Baugh wanted to see who the RB coach was going to be before making a decision. He was hired today and now has in home visits with Sumrall tomorrow and other staff on Wednesday. Not saying it’s a home run hire, but I don’t think Florida would bring on someone their best player wouldn’t care for.

I disagree. I would hope a head coach hired who he thinks is his best option versus hiring a guy from another school hoping it keeps one specific player on the team. This could go either way for them. Sounds like it’s gonna be an important first meeting for them

Those two things aren’t mutually exclusive. You can find a coach that fits your program (bigger priority of course) while also being someone that your current RB room likes. Florida reporters have said retaining Baugh is one of Sumralls top priorities so why wouldn’t that be a factor in his hiring decision? They brought in a coach who has a footprint in Georgia and developed a true freshman into a near 1000 yard/10 TD back. He’s a better hire than people are giving them credit for

Well DBAP stands for Don't Be A 😺
No idea what AOAi means though

Per Google: 

- Azure Open AI

- Avanti Owners Association International 

- Or my favorite, AsOneAfterInfidelity - an online peer support group for groups attempting to reconcile their relationship after an affair.

Obviously Baugh feels cheated on and this is Juluke trying to reconcile their relationship! 🤔🤣

I get what you are saying and that could be the case. My reply was based off the statement “Florida wouldn’t bring in a guy Baugh didn’t care for” which would imply he had some say in the hiring

Oh yea I didn’t mean to say they asked Baugh who he wants. Just think they took retention of Baugh into consideration of the hire. 

Also, just now thinking on the flip side of things…maybe they try to bring the Duke RB over in case Baugh does leave 🤷‍♂️

Yeah I’d say that’s also a possibility. Crazy world of portal is about to unleash its chaos in a week or so 🤣

Actually. I wouldn’t mind getting the Duke RB.

Maybe Florida thinks they can get a back equal to or better than Baugh and can sign him for less money. And save money for elsewhere.

I wouldn’t break the bank for Baugh. I think he only had one run longer than ~ 20 yards and only scored 6 rushing TDs. The Duke running back had less carries, had a higher YPC and scored 10 rushing TDs.

Baugh would help our RB room but is not a TD maker based on his stats.
