@Gerry Hamilton I know everyone has been preaching patience, but when do people start to panic lol? I mean all I’m seeing is talent going out, talent returning to their schools, and us getting ST players lol. At some point Texas has got to pony up for someone and make an offer they can’t refuse right? I mean we’re already down to a RB3 we have a chance at Coleman but if he goes somewhere else my oh my we’re in some deep shii.

Texas has to start winning soon

I’m losing all positivity. How in the hell can you see all of this and assume everything is fine? There’s a reason mods went silent today and it wasn’t a good one

Same here, lost most of our top targets and lost a lot of our players. The staff is showing no sign of life right now. Half of our players we got from the portal are special teamers. We better get Cam Coleman, or fans are going to call for Sark's head.

If we lose out on Sprague and Coleman I think we’re in serious trouble. I understand Brown and Baugh didn’t enter the portal but it does still kinda feel like we lost out on them. 
 

but it would officially be Woods, Coleman and our top 2 OL and then 20 departures. That’s not good. We HAVE to pay Coleman what he wants now and shut that down.

Correct me if I’m wrong but Coleman is the one guy we CAN overpay for. No one we have on campus in that room is as talented. No one can be upset by that dollar amount. I get we have a lot of money in that room already but this is a one year rental to max arch. Go cheap next year.

Ran across this article from yahoo sports this morning that gives a peak behind the curtain of deals being struck. Very interesting read for those like me that aren't well versed.

It's crazy (but not unexpected) how this back door sorcery has evolved so quickly. Moves like university aligned third‑parties redirecting corporate sponsorship dollars directly to athletes (funds that once went to athletic departments) is wild , and I can't help but wonder how this move in particular will affect funding for all other school sports that don't draw the attention/revenue that football does.

For agents and agencies cashing in, this must feel like the California gold rush or the housing boom in the '00s. Crazy time to be a fan of college sports.
