Wow.

Every program is not equal.

Also: Former Auburn basketball coach Bruce Pearl suggested a $25mm-$10mm revenue share split between football/basketball, a 2.5-to-1 ratio. This is the problem. No one can agree on much. At Texas, that number would more likely be a 8 or 10 to 1 ratio.

He’s saying something interesting things about college sports and the future. Says collective bargaining is a 36-60 month process among other things.

No. Please give the family some space. Not going to say anymore.

It’s a tragedy. Please give the family some time and space.

Glad you’re staying! I want to add this. You’ll find folks on here that are somewhat negative and folks who are somewhat positive. And everything in between. But most importantly to me, rarely does anyone lose sight of the fact that we’re all wanting the best for Texas, just in our own way. In other words, Hook’Em first and foremost.

It’s easier for folks to pick holes against perfection IMO.

Ugh. Still one of the most dominating high school tapes I have seen. They showed it at the Houston TD Club player of the year ceremonies and everybody kind of oohed and awed while watching.

Only the roads are dusted here so far.

You want to know what the penalty for this might be? Pete Golding might get suspended for a game when Ole Miss plays Jacksonville State or something. The punishment never fits the crime IMO with the NCAA.

+1,000

That’s awesome!

It’s up to him.

SUNDAY AFTERNOON: There has still been no resolution between Texas and at least one of its current players. Our understanding is that the player has filled out the paperwork to go into the portal, but has not been populated into the portal yet. Texas apparently has until Wednesday to do so, which is two business days from Friday (Monday is MLK day, so it is not considered a business day). ** Texas is still open to players who enter the portal officially next week. There are a couple of defensive players of note: Missouri's Damon Wilson and Ole Miss' Princewill Umanmeilen, both of whom specialize in rushing the passer. Umanmeilen is still discussing a return to Ole Miss, and LSU is thought to be the front-runner if he actually goes into the portal. Texas would be interested, but time will tell if that interest is reciprocated (or even able to be reciprocated). Wilson visited Texas Tech on Thursday/Friday before returning to his Florida home this weekend. He has an offer in hand from the Red Raiders. A complicating factor is his current litigation with Georgia. As part of his NIL package, Wilson is said to be seeking to simultaneously satisfy the Georgia lawsuit against him. Ohio State and Miami are also in contention for Wilson. ** On the offensive side of the ball, Texas remains in the market for a starting OL. Colorado offensive lineman Jordan Seaton was originally linked to the Longhorns but has since taken visits to Mississippi State, Miami and LSU, and is headed to Oregon tomorrow. The Horns have been unlikely to pursue at the same level of other teams since the addition of Wake Forest's Melvin Siani, who was on his visit to Texas yesterday with his parents in tow. That leaves Texas primarily considering interior offensive linemen. Louisiville starting OG Jordan Church committed to Texas Tech yesterday. He had been planning a visit to Texas. It's unclear if Church remains unsigned and will still take a visit to Texas. The Longhorns are also looking at multiple possibilities and awaiting the final closure of the transfer portal itself. All names must be entered no later than Wednesday night. The only players who can enter after that (for five additional days) are participants in tomorrow night's national championship game. Long story short, Texas remains on the hunt on the OL. Will someone pop into the portal late? Will a player currently playing for a national title decide to enter? There are a lot of questions that we don't have the answers for. Beyond just the prospective starters, Texas is also looking to add more depth on the OL. So we could see additional names considered depth pieces for 2026. ** What about other positions? It's not out of the realm that we will see Texas attempt to sign a QB (Sark historically likes to keep four scholarship QBs on roster), an experienced wide receiver and possibly another defensive back (corner/nickel). ** When the portal first opened, I was told Texas would likely land somewhere between 15-18 players. Texas is currently at 15. They will land within that threshold or go slightly over.
