Venables better KILL it in the portal or he’s toast. His roster is now noticeably worse than it was two days ago, and that’s saying something.

Texas in back to back playoffs and OU bout to have their Strong-era. I've only dreamed of times like this!

I wonder how long it will be until the regret sets in

It doesn't seem like he's a player looking to compete for Nattys in college. It seems like his priority is being the big offensive star on the team. Being the one bright spot at OU for three years will highlight his talent and isn't a bad strategy for going round 1 in the draft. This is all assuming he can get the development he needs from Bill Bedenbaugh which I think he can.

Being a diamond in a sea of garbage seems like strange priorities. I thought the goal was to compete for and win championships

That's what I think the goal should be, but Gerry's been pretty consistent that Fasusi highly prioritized early playing time during his recruitment. Valuing early playing time over sitting for a year or so on a talented roster does not seem like a decision a player makes if he's all about competing for championships...

Damn I wonder if Texas is even pursuing anyone right now, they seem so quiet. To be fair I don’t see mega game changers out on the market yet

Trust the support staff evaluation of portal players. Patience everyone.

Lebby not keeping Van Buren is a mistake. He can play and you would have him for three more years.

is this lebby not keeping Van Buren, or Van Buren wanting to go somewhere he can have more success?

Lots of consternation about how quiet Texas has been thus far. Reminder that this is what things were like the last couple of cycles as well, and look where we are now. Calma.

same people were crying in July about the recruiting class

Until A&M finds a quarterback that can sling the rock, it won't matter who they add at WR.

What was the main reason for Texas not pursuing Micah Hudson? Lack of college production as a freshman? Bad blood from his high school recruitment? Prioritizing more experienced WRs in the portal? Is he just not interested in Texas at all?

You don't entertain Jackson Arnold and bring back Blake Shapen if you are dead set on Van Buren being your guy.
