With the A&M game looming... I thought this would be an appropriate time to get some good ol wishes in. I've been scouring social media of a few major players on schools with major coaching changes... and I'm seeing some Longhorns of note in the comments section. I'm also seeing a lot of those particular players on those same Longhorns posts. I also see the players teammates indicating that they seem to be a bit nervous.. like its possible they may leave! 

 

Drop who you want in the portal here. I got a major name... but I'm waiting to see who's on the same page.

 

🤘🏿🔥🔥🔥

I’ll say at RB, it would be nice to get a guy like kewan lacy, Caleb Hawkins, or Bryson Washington if he doesn’t head to the NFL. 

Wouldn’t surprise me to see Hawkins follow Morris to OKSt though. 

At WR, Jayce Brown would be interesting if he’s cheap enough. I think he’d do well in this offense. The Scudero guy from SJSU is tiny, but would also be interesting if he could survive a hit or two.

Scudero barely survived Anthony Hill 😂

Give me Baugh at RB while we groom Cooper.

2-3 SEC starter quality interior OL

1-2 burner WRs who can create separation and take the top off a defense. 
 

Defer to others on our defensive needs.

A steady presence in the safety or corner room would be nice. They’ve been exposed way too much for my liking. A downhill runningback, a wide receiver that can win in space and a road grader or two at guard.

Yes because players are never lured to the portal before they enter. 

Can’t have wish list without players in the portal is my point. Yes I’m aware players are lured into the portal.

It all depends on the amount of money we have to work with.  If it is a similar dollar amount to last year then we will go after overall depth shortfalls again.   Sark maximized our money last year.

IMO next year should be in it to win it year. Spare no expense and go above budget to shoot for a title.

I agree including trying to entice Muhammad and even Hill to come back. Go all in like Ohio State did last year.

Gotta be 2 or even 3 guys in the interior for OL and at least a starter at RB that we know is gonna produce, you can find the at the G5 level for cheap.

Don’t really care about WR, I think we can manage, they’re also really expensive, don’t know if that would be a good ROI.

A TE that’s more of a threat in the passing game would be nice.

Safety is a must.

Line backer we probably need an SEC starter level player.

Probably need one or two dbs?

https://www.on3.com/transfer-portal/wire/football/ In case anyone needs a list

Kenyon Garner - Edge Livingstone College

Tech seems to be the pick and there are already great players on the UT roster but gotta keep Tech and A&M from getting good players. 

https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17609075/68e87d452e0659a35aeb6ed5

Tony Diaz - WR UTRGV

Not in the portal, don't know if he will, this is a hypothetical wish list - just named Freshman of the Year for the Southland Conference and First Team All-Conference. I'd hope he stay another year in the Valley though. 

Tellek Lockette - IOL (RG) Texas State

Super senior, highly rated. Dad's a coach at Marshall. OLine is still going to be pretty green next year. Stroh and Kibble are behind DJ, unless there's shuffling with Cojoe hopefully back. Does Coach Flood stick with them or actually consider adding experience? Robertson and Umeozulu being the only seniors, if Neto returns.

Dylan Edwards RB - Kansas State via Colorado

Ehhh super talented, would've been a pick but 5'9 167, I don't think Sark goes for a smaller back. Let's see who else shows up. Experience would be great if CJ Baxter still has injury trouble. I think we expect James Simon to get a bigger bulk of the snaps.

Hold up...this kid just popped up on my For You. 215 with hurdles and trucks, ok Mark Ingram 3.0

Safety and Corner

is a wait and see. Need to know where Santana Wilson and Caleb Chester are at. IF Littleton moves opposite of Phillips, could that move either one to nickel..behind Mack?? or a solid transfer or an incoming freshman stands out for either corner or nickel.

Kicker

Saw Will Stone on threads asking where he should go, having him in 2026 would have been great. But accuracy and long distance kicker is a MUST.

 

again, these are hypothetical wish lists. I'm looking more at lower divisions as well, tons of highly experienced talent that shouldn't break the NIL bank. Except Garner, Tech obviously opens the McDuck vault every time a player submits a resume.
