  1. It’s been that way forever. I agree they should try to follow the NFL more closely because the NFL is actually aggressive in how they operate and change their rules, even if it’s only slightly. Helmet communication is an example.
  2. Thanks Robert. Gotta say, I just find it fun as heck to talk football with Longhorn fans. That’s what it’s all about for me. Hopefully that comes across.
  3. I really like that X went and celebrated with teammates after.
  4. Yes, unequivocally. 🙂
  5. Yes, there are two possibilities from what I hear. One is a Jets guy and another is a 49ers guy.
  6. And we’re live.
  7. This off-season, Texas is paying the price of winning. Yet another of Steve Sarkisian’s behind-the-scenes employees has left for increased responsibilities elsewhere. Bobby Merritt, who was responsible for breaking down opposing film and evaluating prospects in the portal for the Horns in 2023, has been hired by Rice University as its new general manager. The move has yet to be announced publicly but Merritt started with Rice on Friday. Merritt’s former boss at Texas, Billy Glasscock who was the director of player personnel for the Horns, left in January to become the General Manager for Ole Miss. That’s the price of winning. People will move up and get more responsibilities at other places.

  9. Given the performances yesterday and in Friday, the NFL combine has a burnt orange hue to it Gerry and I are going to carry a special livestream this morning at 8am to talk about it. Just a huge day for the Horns. https://youtube.com/live/iF4adQtwy1I

  11. Good year for TEs. Hope Texas is able to take two.
  12. Who had Ryan Watts with the longest wingspan of every Texas player (except possibly Christian Jones)?
  13. The problem even McMillen acknowledges is that there are major differences between some of the schools he lobbies for. For instance, the difference between Texas and Old Dominion is fairly significant.
  14. I sat down with the president of Lead1 Association Tom McMillen. McMillen’s group encompasses the top 130 football programs in the country, not all of the NCAA. I got his thoughts on where college sports is actually headed.

  16. I don't know that any of those three are necessarily at the top of the board for the Horns at this point. We just don't know if the Horns are prioritizing them.
  17. Love this stuff.
  18. We're going to keep this updated for folks.
  19. We shall see!
  20. I still think it should be a single day/week on the first Wednesday of February. Either that, or sign whenever you want.
  21. This week, Gerry, CJ and I talk big picture issues, including the strength of Texas football this spring, Rodney Terry's first year at the helm, and how proposed new NCAA rules, particularly a June signing day, would impact the Longhorns.

  23. This is a major development.
  24. On Sunday night, we’re going to do a quiz show instead of our regular Sunday night Livestream. It’ll be Gerry, Rod, Blake (who is hosting) and myself. One of the segments needs some feedback from Texas fans. If you would, please fill out this quick Google for for us. Questions are simple and easy. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Am1ayv5k_L2faGvg6YyLR_sgvNOtnZ3DkYCNOwHf9QE
  25. The fire now encompasses 800 square miles. And is 0% controlled. A nuclear facility has been evacuated.
