Robert Gilbert

It is hard to grasp that Sark and the staff are looking into 2027 recruits while in the middle of recruiting 2025 players. This staff’s effort to bring in and evaluate talent is something I have never seen at UT before.

Thanks for the info. Looking forward to tomorrow’s Coffee and Football to hear the discussion between Gerry and you.

I am thrilled to get this inside look into UT football. I am as starved for Longhorn football as everyone else. These little doses feed my addiction and fuel my obsession.

This is one of the better features of OTF. Since I spend so little time on social media, I can come here and see what media around the country, the players themselves, and the university is saying and doing about UT sports.

I’d say you proved my point. While I believe both Baxter and Blue are capable of rushing for 1,000+ yards (though not in the same season), neither has proven that they can last a full season as RB #1.

I agree. I have read a number of accounts of the incident and they all varied slightly. Did he know that peanuts were life threatening? Did he think that they would just give him a rash? Did he really try to clean up the peanuts from the locker when he learned how dangerous they might be? I do not know, and to be honest I doubt anyone on this board knows for sure. However, if anyone who has posted opposition to this recruitment and has driven under the influence (liquor or drugs) then your hypocrisy is showing. Those of you questioning Sark over this remind me of his first two years when you were calling for his firing (or PK, Choate, Gideon, etc) and who now scream his praises. To the original topic, I trust Sark will not do anything to jeopardize the program. He has as much, and in some ways more, than any of us to lose if this goes South.

I agree with the panel that at least 8 of the decade’s teams make the playoffs, possibly all 10. Rod’s statement about Mack coaching scared brought back memories. No knock on Mack but Ced B’s career didn’t really begin till after the OU game his Fr. year. His unwillingness to open up the offense, especially early in the decade, could have cost UT some games.

Watching it now. There were just so many good UT teams during that decade.

Thanks

Will the usage of headsets begin the 2024 season? If so, will Sark use them during the Spring game?

He so richly deserves it.

I think it is apparent that the Colts do not have Sam in their long term plans, at least not as a starter.

Fantastic news. Any info on who will be hosting the show?

Fantastic work

Gotta love large humans.

I think C Williams will be a bust as the #1 pick. I would hate to see A Mitchell as an Eagle.

I loved to walk around just to see all the pics of the people who had performed there. Does anybody know where the pics went or are stored?

I like both of their Hudl film. Fortunately for me, and the Longhorn nation, I will not be making the choice. I trust Sark to choose the vest on for the Horns.

UT basketball, HS Championships, took the kids to Sesame Street on Ice, but my favorite was the Motley Crue and Whitesnake concert in 85 or 86.

Great video with Blake hosting Cat Osterman and Reese Atwood. If you are a fan of our softball team I highly recommend it.

I agree. I am sure you remember all hate directed at Worthy as his sophomore season ended. It wasn’t till later we learned he had an injured hand which probably was the cause for several drops. If we look at this from a larger societal issue, I think we will find that social media has made it easier to be critical of athletes, actors, politicians, etc. It is one thing to rip Dak on the Cowboys when he is making 40+ million but to tear into a 20ish QB because he doesn’t live up to your ability on Madden Football is sad.

1.78 for the 10 yard split and 5.05 for the 40. https://x.com/InsideTexas/status/1764362811776393558?s=20

Gerry, do you think he will be getting any DI offers in either sport? If so, what position do you see him playing?

Great points. I just don’t want to see college football get bogged down as we so often see in the pros.
