More concerned about December than I am July. So, if we had hit on everyone, but they bailed prior to signing day, would you feel better?

The problem is we are operating like there is a salary cap, while our competitors are not. 

Sounding like it. Because they know history shows the NCAA is not shutting down a program like LSU or Bama.

Horns are in a good spot, especially after the addition of Okpala.

Let’s change the title to “1-9”

My guess is we come up with Okpala and one of Turntine/Ojo

This is aging well

2/11 after Turntine commits tmr, 18% commit rate in the last 2 weeks… not going to cut it…when is it time to be concerned

Ref the new 'Salary Cap" would some of your higher value athletes that happen to come from well off families ie manning soon to be dia bell offer a discounted price to get better talent around them to be more competitive especially come playoff time?

Some already have and not just because they’re from well off families but because they want to build a better team.

Not something that needs to be called out by name but those athletes should be commended for the team first mentality.  I dont recall seeing this anywhere else.  Thanks Bobby

Which ones do you think we didn’t push for?

Texas didn't push late for Calicut,

For those keeping score at home

Someone asked which prospects Texas didn't push for late ... I would say NIL match late.

Calicut
Simeon

Texas isn't pushing for Bryce Perry-Wright ... OTF has reported that numerous times. The commitment of Richard Wesley meant Texas wasn't going to push on BP-W.

Xavier Griffin wasn't coming to Texas when Tyler Atkinson was brought in for an OV ... so not sure how one calculates that. But OTF reported multiple times that was going to be the case. 

Texas absolutely wanted Ezavier Crowell, Malakai Lee, Kendall Guervil and Trenton Henderson. Texas will hang around those through senior year.
