OTF expects Wisconsin lineman Joe Brunner to head to Indiana. Brunner's circle reached out to Texas but he wants to stay in the Midwest.

They're trolling.

You can find hidden gems anywhere. No doubt about it. But where do the majority of impact portal players come from? P4 schools. And yes, Texas has a fairly large scouting department and they look at everybody.

No. Texas historically has not done multi-year deals.

Texas has not been too principled.

Yes, there are all types of deadlines and negotiating tactics (like evaporating offers) that schools use all the times.

I think Texas should just pay everybody what they want because of what they might be 2 years from now. 😞 I’ve got news for you folks. It’s a new day and age in CFB.

Winston is 2nd team in 12 personnel and could now move to 1st in passing situations. Simon certainly has a decision to make and has been weighing that.

This is a mid-day update. Still no word on offensive tackle Andrew Sprague. The Kansas City native is still debating between a move to Texas or returning to Michigan. Both sides are awaiting a decision. It was originally thought he would announce a decision this morning, so it could come at any time.

There’s plenty of time. The timeline to enter the portal closes on Jan. 16. As I mentioned in my article this morning, I suspect Texas will be adding depth pieces all the way into the spring.

2-3 With the third a cheaper depth piece than Barnes.
