    One of the many things I like about OTF is that all the daily contributors seem so comfortable in front of the camera. Each person has something to contribute and expresses it clearly. This plus the depth and breath of knowledge clearly separates this channel from OB and all others who follow UT football.

    Not that my opinion carries a great deal of weight, but I really liked Griffin’s Hudl video. I trust Sark but I would love to see him at the 40 Acres.

    If we get 8 or 9 drafted and the others make a roster as an UDFA, that will be big with future classes. 2025, 2026, etc will see that the UT staff develops talent and puts its players in the NFL.

    UT Sr. vs UT Jr. I like it.

    PS, I stole this idea from Coffee and Football this morning. Bobby and Gerry both made great points. If you have not seen today’s episode, you are missing out on a great deal of info.

    While I am happy for a Lifetime Longhorn to get back to our beloved state, I do worry (at least a little) about recruiting against him. Of course I know UT vs UH recruiting is not on par.

    Which opponent do you think is the most important victory in 2024? Feel free to add why. I will go with OU, Georgia, A&M, Michigan

    Getting him on campus is huge. If we could pry him away from the West coast teams that would be a big, big win.

    On Coffee and Football the topic of non conference games was discussed. More specifically, should we include in our non conference schedule the Michigans and Ohio States. My opinion is quite simple…no. If we were still in the Big 12 then we would need great non conference opponents to elevate our strength of schedule. Since we will have teams like Alabama, LSU, Georgia, Florida, etc on a yearly basis there is no need to boost our non conference games as we did when we were playing Baylor, Iowa State, TCU, etc. What do you think?

    How about another Mac Davis song? “Its hard to be humble when you are perfect in every way”.

    OTF should raffle off a road trip with Gerry all the proceeds go to the One Texas Fund or Gerry’s jerky fund. 🤘

    So far the Sark Way has created very positive results. Most of us realize that recruiting is fluid and there a series of ups and down any given cycle. In Sark I trust.

    There are stories out there suggesting that Seattle kept the news quiet till after the 30 day window closed, as a way of helping Alabama. No link for you because it is behind a paywall. However, a story about the move is listed below. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39494674/seahawks-hiring-ryan-grubb-offensive-coordinator

    Simms has always been mistreated or misunderstood by UT fans. I am not sure if it was all the hype surrounding him out of HS, him replacing fan favorite Major, that he did not perform up to expectations in several key games, or (probably) many Longhorn fans are just obsessive jerks. I truly hope that Sark brings him back upon the 40 Acres soon. Longhorn fans need to let go whatever anger (no matter how delusional) aimed at him and embrace him as a lifetime Longhorn.

    I think we all realize that all the “Arch is leaving” talk by the national media was just clickbait BS. I don’t see the Mannings in general and Arch is particular as people who would bail on a school just because he is not starting his FR year. Add to that his younger brother is enrolling at UT this Fall and I believe UT has an all aboard true Longhorn who will probably start for three years (after getting some quality mop up time this season).

    I love this kind of content. Keep up the great work.

    I may be an optimist but I believe that this will be a very good season which will result with a trip to Omaha.

    One thing I will miss when LHN is shut down is the coverage of softball, baseball, track, tennis, golf, etc. I realize that LHN will be folded into the SEC network but I don’t see how it will be the same amount if coverage.

    It is horrible that D Woodsen didn’t get in to the HOF.

    I have had the same problem but all I do is just scroll back to the beginning. I am not all watching the video in real time but I can live with being a few seconds or even a minute or so behind. But that is just me.
  21. Robert Gilbert
    Keep in mind, this is just one man’s opinion. Granted Bobby has more experience in this type of evaluation than all of us combined but he is not infallible, as he has said. However, I would tend to go with his opinion over my own observations. When it comes right down to it, this is a beauty contest. Do you like blondes or brunettes? Do you prefer size in a WR or speed? Beatles or the Rolling Stones?
  22. Robert Gilbert
    I agree. Just look at A&m’s #1 class a few years ago. How many of them are still there? How much did they contribute? Did they elevate the program?
  23. Robert Gilbert
    Excellent watch. I really enjoy watching these short vids that focus on a commitment or Sark’s press conference. Keep up the good work.
  24. Robert Gilbert
    As I understand it (based upon what Bobby, CJ, and others have stated) the problem with DeBose has not fully healed from his Jr year injury. I think we all believe that if DeBose is fully healthy he would be a plus contributor by at least his 2nd year on campus.
  25. Robert Gilbert
    I think if Parker Livingstone is fully healed he will have a very good career at UT. Maybe not All American or even All Conference but I believe he will be a plus player for the Longhorns during his time on the 40 Acres.
