  1. Texas is in the midst of trying to rectify about 10-15 years of relative inaction on the facilities front. The biggest piece of the puzzle for football has been the lack of a premier indoor facility. The Texas bubble has lagged that of other top tier programs for the last decade-plus. It's also inconveniently located. It took a while to get things situated, but I feel like things will finally be satisfied for football with this build. Everything else that is still to be done should be straight-forward (like grass at DKR). For other sports, I think baseball's turf is behind others but that's up to Coach Schloss to define what he wants and then for CDC to go get it accomplished. Outside of that, with the creation of Moody, I just don't hear anything other than rave reviews for Texas facilities overall.
  2. Good luck to him. Those two receivers - Red and Brennan Thompson - from that class will now both be on their third schools.
  3. I'm all for creativity and seeing if it sparks something for me. But I'm not for a logo change. The Longhorn silhouette is instantly recognizable moreso than individual letters.
  4. Underestimated point IMO. I think we’ll also see more throws to back of end zone with higher release point and taller, stronger armed QB.
  5. Jack’s right. Texas wasn’t supposed to be ready for the wiles of the SEC. Outside of men’s basketball, it feels more like the SEC wasn’t ready for Texas.
  6. Appreciate the kind words!
  7. Cody Campbell should be the head coach instead of Joey McGuire because that’s who’s really running things.
  8. First of all, congrats to coach and Loreal. Second, folks wondered why he missed practice earlier this week and we told y’all to just sit tight. Hopefully now everyone understands.
  9. Appreciate that. I’m at 5ish. Would not be surprised with as few as 3 or as many as 8.
  10. I think the over/under is 5. I am not mentioning any names until they put themselves in the portal. Conjecture from an OTF staff member here serves no purpose and might be misconstrued as reporting. Plus, it's only 10-15 days away, so we can wait.
  11. The $20mm is across all sports. Football will be roughly $15mm. Some collectives will disappear but not all. Texas will continue to have an outside collective designed to find deals for players. The bigger issues here are around the edges. For example, what will be “fair market value” of a player? Will that definition hold up in court (most believe it will not). What happens when and if the players organize? The House Settlement is yet another band aid on a bullet hole. It’s a start but it’s nowhere near finished.
  12. He’s a take. Seven sacks last year.
  13. Belyeu was heading to doc today. MRI yesterday on thumb.
