Give Me Your Thoughts | Coverage for the Fall

My suggestion for OTF is we cancel/ban @Gerry Hamilton because he eats corn dogs with mayo 🤢🤢🤮🤮

I would love a weekly show/segment breaking down players on the opposing team that Texas recruited and any draft prospects. We follow these kids for months and then they sort of disappear. Would be fun to get an update on their careers every once in a while.

I feel like the loss of LHN’s pregame and postgame opens a huge opportunity for someone to step in as “the” source for pregame and postgame coverage and discussion. It’s one of the few things LHN got right. You guys should fill that role and have CJ on location doing interviews with players, etc after the games. When you do all get to games together like TXOU or major bowls you should consider a legit branded desk production you could sit at and broadcast from with a guest seat, etc. 

Ambitious yes but the need is there so why not the best most connected dudes in the business filling the role LHN left behind.

I'll go back to my main one - clip up the shows into snackable segments like Klatt does. You've got the best content but I don't have an hour daily to watch. Hopefully boosted views and engagement offsets the costs.

Fully agree.   Klatt and Cowherd probably do it the best and realize it’s extra production effort.   Makes consumption rate skyrocket.  

Also, for weekly shows where they are clearly broken up into different segments, consider creating chapter bookmarks on video segments to make it easy to scroll to different topics when time is limited.

no baseball no basketball talk just football?

First, CJ, thanks for putting this out to OTF.   It’s awesome the way Bobby and team are constantly working to improve OTF.  
 

Here’s a suggestion.  During the season (especially football and possibly basketball/baseball to an extent), consider doing regular Top 5, Top 10 or even just Top 3 lists.

For example, after the game on Sunday could be Top 10 plays of the game (mix of plays across offense, defense, ST)

Call out the ‘Catch of the Game, Throw of the Game, Run of the Game, Hit of the Game, ST Play of the Game, Best Play call of the game, etc.   

Name the Top 3 Players on Defense and Top 3 on Offense after each game.   

All ways to make it fun and celebrate the team and individual play. 
 

Coukd do something similar for basketball, only shorter list.   Maybe just Top 3 plays of the game.   
 

Hook em!! 🧡🐂🤘🏼

In addition to all the regular shows, I loved tuning into the postgame last year with Brian Robison and Rod B. Also really enjoyed Lunch with the Coaches! Coach Irwin and Shipley bring it🤘🏼

One thing I would recommend staying away from is getting into specifics about injuries. Whether it’s severity, recovery timeline, rehab, etc. I come from this world and it’s very apparent that most of the information presented is not very accurate when it comes to the specifics. You guys are the best place for all information regarding Texas athletics, including team info, recruiting, evaluation, etc. But unless you bring in someone who specializes in injuries and rehab, I would refrain from discussing in too much detail.

Wouldn’t mind a more robust recruiting prospect database in terms of website content.

Absolutely!!!

Too much talk about the past teams by the former DB, who  now moderates various podcast on OTF you tube.. I'm interested in today's longhorn sports and not when he played years ago.

It’s Rod Babers. And I respectfully disagree, having historical perspective on current situations can provide insight assuming, it’s relevant.

Add in some comedy.

Show your predictions, and then what REALLY happened.  Include posters as well.

I’d love to have more former players in the watch with us and post game. It would also be nice to have a recap with those guys focusing on their specific area of expertise on the breakdown as well as commentary from you, Jeff, Bobby, and Gerry! Might be fun to have a contest where a subscriber gets to join the team during in game and post game?

It was great during softball playoff run when y’all had current active players on OTF for interviews.   Would love to have more current active players on OTF for interviews throughout the year from football, basketball, baseball, volleyball, softball, etc.   Great way to get to know players.   Realize you do it some, just suggesting more when possible.
