It's a different era to be sure! No more 'Kansas Melt-Downs' in the near future. Still one of my all-time favorite media moments, but for all the wrong reasons. Passion!

.....aaaaannnndddd DONE!!! Thank you Bobby, and well done to OTF! Let the games begin!!!

Welcome to OTF, Jeff!!! The biggest development this offseason to date is your joining the team and community here. I was bummed to hear you were leaving 247, but my second thought was, jeesh, if Jeff comes to OTF this site will be unstoppable. Looking forward to baseball threads and, of course, your excellent takes on Texas football. Your passion for the Horns is infectious and I can't wait to see how this team progresses into the '25/'26 season! As soon as you have a handle on it, can you let us know if we can expect some form of the Blitz to pick back up? Also, if you have any insight you can share on Matt Butler it would be appreciated as well. Hook'Em!!!

So you take the blue blood coaches out because no one has ever said yes before?! We've never been on a coach hunt as members of the SEC. CDC got us Beard who was the best coach in the country at the time and then gave RT the opportunity which he has fallen short on. Nah, shoot for the damn stars and make them say no.

I think OSU wins, as they're a pretty good match up for ND. I'll cheer for them simply so we can say the team we lost to won it all.

I would love this development! He's the only reason I've held onto my 247 sub (and a few of the long-term members there). Jeff and Rod B are great together on The Blitz.

That's encouraging. We will need every bit of that O-Line to keep QE clean.

Nice! Shaw was a 5* coming out of high school. Huge potential here and a good hole filler if nothing else. Also played basketball. Good athlete.

It would be problematic if it moved. I won't be able to watch live if they do. I'll make a call.

Well, maybe. You could have not made the playoffs and lost to Navy, USC or Michigan... 😉

I don't think there's any way to say a 13-win season isn't a success. It's been a great year so far, BUT, I'd bet if you ask anyone on the team if they're happy with where they sit they wouldn't be. The biggest goal is still there for us. 2 more wins, baby!

Sark and Quinn are 25-4 in their last 29 games. Not sure how long you've been a fan, but if it's at least 10 years, stfu.

42-13

Excellent first post, thanks for sharing the story!

Losing Taaffe and Makuba is a big hit, but we have some nice guys waiting in the wings. Interior D-Line is my biggest concern. I'm also not convinced TE is going to be fine without someone stepping up that I'm not seeing just yet. As much as I believe Arch will be amazing, until we see it on the field against major competition there's a small question in the back of my mind.
