  1. I think it is apparent that the Colts do not have Sam in their long term plans, at least not as a starter.
  2. Fantastic news. Any info on who will be hosting the show?
  3. I think C Williams will be a bust as the #1 pick. I would hate to see A Mitchell as an Eagle.
  4. 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?
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. Great video with Blake hosting Cat Osterman and Reese Atwood. If you are a fan of our softball team I highly recommend it.

  8. 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.

  9. 1.78 for the 10 yard split and 5.05 for the 40. https://x.com/InsideTexas/status/1764362811776393558?s=20
  10. Gerry, do you think he will be getting any DI offers in either sport? If so, what position do you see him playing?
  11. Great points. I just don’t want to see college football get bogged down as we so often see in the pros.
  12. Here are some football highlights with Craig Way on the call.
  13. I coached Jr. High basketball for a decade and he is as good in 8th grade as anyone I ever saw.
  14. Conference championships, coaching All Americans, winning awards, and putting players in the NFL is fantastic. However, when you get this type of endorsement from a parent…this is something to be proud of. Good work Sark.
  15. I first subscribed to OTF when your channel had less than a 1000 subscribers. Of course this was when OTF was affiliated with IT. To be honest, I wasn't over impressed but I needed a change from OB’s videos so I continued to watch. And after watching a second and then a third video I got hooked. It isn’t that the other YouTube channels are bad…they just lack the smooth deliveries and/or knowledge of the program and recruiting that OTF delivers daily. Getting Gerry back was a major coup. As long as you put out honest, reasoned, and enthusiastic shows I can see the channel growing by leaps and bounds.
  16. Barnes looks like a must get for UT. He could easily be the continuation of great LB play on the 40.
  17. “Would it not be a better gauge and better preperation for the next level if the rules were the same?” I agree. There should be some overlapping rules for the college and pro ranks. However, since only a very small portion of college players play pro football, it doesn’t make sense to mirror the rules completely. After all there already mechanisms in place (the Combine, Pro Days) for prospective pro players. The college game is more wide open and more exciting than the pro version and many of us would hate seeing bogged down by pro rules. Also since college players are not as developed either physically or in their skill level differences are needed. For example, the pros requiring both feet to be in bounds to be a legal catch as compared to college needing only one foot.
  18. Simms is the best/worst example (depending at how you look at it) of what the Horn fanbase can do to a player. Simms was a great recruit and a very good QB for the Horns. However, since he did not live up to the hype while on the 40 Acres he has been vilified by many so-called fans. Mack didn’t do him any favors by starting him ahead of Major but he never deserved the animosity showered upon him by so many. I would love to see him back home and welcomed with open arms.
  19. Let’s face it, the Longhorn nation does have a number of people who know little about football. Don’t believe me, then check out threads on OB or IT during any football game. From firing Sark and PK during the game to disparaging comments about players for not living up to the poster’s skills on Madden Football the Longhorn Nation has its share of nutcases. I just hope OTF will be different than OB and IT. This is a great story and thanks for sharing.
  20. This is just another sign that the Longhorn program is on the right track. Our appearance in the playoffs, three years of top 10 recruiting classes, losing coaches to promotions (especially head coaching positions), front office types being sought after, and the success the Horns had at the Combine. TCU made the Championship game a few seasons ago but could not continue that success. In other words it was a one season fluke. It is a great time to be a Horn.
  21. Excellent video. By the way, congratulations on surpassing 38,000 subscribers on YouTube. Of all the channels that cover the Horns exclusively, OTF has the largest number of subscribers. At least as far as I can find.
  22. Vic is amassing talent at a Sark like level.
