OTF Premium Mo Portal Mo Problems

IMO, there's been more nutty sh*t from UT fans on the internet over the last couple of months than ever before.

New portal thread! New lease on life.

What I think happened is that there are conversations happening behind the scenes with Lynch’s agent and they expect him to be their guy. But they don’t want to get burned again like before, so they planned to bring Church in for a visit to keep on the back burner in case Lynch doesn’t enter. But they didn’t expect church to commit to Tech so soon. If Lynch falls through, I think they bring in 1-2 experienced grad transfers to compete.

Yall ever put DragonForce on the radio at work just to watch peoples reaction? I just did. I got fired. But it was worth it.

Call me crazy but I’m hedging my happiness in this national championship game. I absolutely do not want Miami to win, so I’m putting $100 on them to win. If they do end up winning at least I got something out of it, but I’d rather lose $100 and Indiana take it home!

[Steamboat Willie]

Texas has materially raised the ceiling of its top players, but the offensive line still needs reinforcement. The only true unknown remains left guard, and overall depth is still thin. Kyle Flood still has work to do.

[Bunk Moreland]

I want Indiana to win. Gonna be hard for them to recreate the magic IMO. But Miami is a program I don’t want to get hot. Might slam the door shut on some of our Florida recruiting.

[ETXHorn]

I hope Sark & Co are trying to "with this out" until after the CFP game tonight and for the 5 days following when players from these last two teams are eligible to enter the portal.

Still feels crazy to me that Coleman is a longhorn!!!

[Steamboat Willie]

Brown and Smothers are a clear upgrade over the players who left. They force defenses to account for them on every snap and can turn ordinary plays into real damage, something the departing group simply did not provide.

fwiw, Houston Chron has a quote from Lynch saying he's coming back to Indiana next year.

I think it's generous to assume the staff has a plan at iOL...

What is he supposed to say— yeah I’m about to play in the championship but I really want to go back to Texas for my senior season? No athlete has ever in the history of sports asserted their commitment to a team only to leave days later. Not saying he does end up at Texas, but I’m not putting any stock in quotes like that—especially when Bobby’s been hinting there might be interest there.

As for your second statement, I guess we will have to see.

we still don't know who is in the portal until wed from the non championship game teams.  lets see what happens. 

[TheRoJoShow]

Let’s see what happens this week, but it would be very disappointing to have not addressed our biggest need. It was made very clear by Texas and OTF that OG was priority #1 at multiple phases of this process, so anything to the contrary would be blatant backtracking and revisionism. Still have confidence it gets resolved in one way or another but it’ll be interesting to see if/how the narrative shifts if they can’t address it fully.

Don’t get me wrong, I hope this happens but the way he talks in this interview doesn’t paint a convincing picture for him leaving

I get the feeling weds entrants will be a major letdown. We would’ve heard about players planning to enter as we have throughout the process.

Indiana and Mendoza would make helluva story… Hoosiers all day … Cmon
