Keelon Russell

Sark must have not felt very confident in flipping Keelon, or just really really likes Lacey that much, cause its hard to not wonder why we didn't go harder after Keelon with how insane his senior season has been and how much he has rose in the recruiting rankings. Hope we don't look back on it and wonder what the thought process was.

Assuming no major injuries, Manning will play at least two seasons, then Lacey and Bell can duke it out for the starting spot once Manning goes pro.  Not worried about QB after this season as long as Sark is the HC.

Yeah the two seasons of Arch is why I'm not stressing it too much. I won't ever really stress QB recruiting under Sark.

We might see 3 years of Arch guys the family is different & doesn't want to rush Arch the to NFL

I'd be very shocked if Arch stays in college 5 years and stays for his redshirt senior season. Especially if he's a top 10 pick type player after his 2nd season starting, which he should be. I think 4 years was always the expectation.

Yeah it depends on what he values more at that point in his life.  Soaking up the college experience or getting enough games under your belt to appease NFL GMs then bounce?  I doubt money will be his main motivation in his decision.

He had a down year as a Junior and needed to build his draft stock back up. If Arch plays like a top 10 pick as a redshirt Junior, I wouldn't count on him being back.

I'd love to see Owens play meaningful snaps at Texas, but I think he's gonna take the Maalik Murphy route, get experience in Sark's system, then transfer in 2026.  2025 is a big year for Owens as well.  Always be ready because you never know.

Watching a QB throw 45 TDs to 0 INTs in 6A Texas football is not star chasing. Y’all are really dumb sometimes.

“how much he has rose in the recruiting rankings“ 

Dont worry your tiny little brain and let sark make the decision because he’s a hell of a lot better at it then your eye test EVER will be.

Texas could have had Keelon, but passed on him prior to him committing to Alabama. They did not extend a 2nd QB offer and had no plans to take a 2 QB class. Gerry went into great detail about this earlier this year…Sark simply liked KJ Lacey more. KR certainly has all the measurables, make no mistake about it… but in Sark’s evaluation we Trust

Ahh so you looked at a whole paragraph and focused on the only sentence you wanted to complain about. Even ignored the replies of me saying I trust Sark and wouldn’t ever worry about QBs under him. Or I guess you just didn’t see those huh? Again, idiot.
