Scotty Walden: “I’m trying to constantly make sure with GM that we don’t go over the $20 million cap.”

Room breaks out in laughter.

”I did that for the people in the back to wake them up,” he said. “We’ll never touch the $20 million cap at the University of Texas-El Paso.”

Again, not sure what’s being said, but Traylor is cracking Sark up.

Sonny Dykes echoed the same. He said if the starting left tackles at Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech and TCU make roughly the same thing, then recruits will pick schools based on things other than money.

I mentioned this in another thread, but CJ and I happened to walk by the Texas coaches coming out of back stairwell in the convention center after Derrek Cooper committed. The staff was very happy, to say the least, and Sark was on the phone with a big smile plastered on his face.

Today was a good day for the Longhorns.
