First of all Samman, I will post what I feel like posting, and I don't give a rats ass if you like it or not. In fact, just don't read them, that show a narcissistic childish mentality on your part. As it relates to this post, as someone who has played sports, I am thinking about what would be a potential better option for this young Man's career. When he arrives at Texas he will be behind the other players, and as a grad transfer I want him to get the most catches he can to improve his drift stock. At Texas he may get, what 20 or 30 catches for 300- 350 yards 5 TDs. If he transfers to a power 5 school that needs a WR he could get 60-80 catches 800 yards. Yes, he can compete but will that be best if he is not on the field? There is enough talent in that room right to bring out the best of each player, adding one more means less reps for the super talented young receivers. As for number of catches in the room, they have plenty now and I guess you forgot how many catches were in the room when Worthy cam in, how did that work o out? Or the starts at left tackle two years ago, how is that working out? If he comes great, but I want to see reps taken away from him, or the young guys. I can tell you're young 20 something, grow up and realize that you don't know everything, and this is a football site to enjoy and have fun. Your opinion is just that, no better or worse than anyone else. Life will be hard for you can't handle a football blog? FYI I will keep posting what I want, and will never add a disrespectful comment to anyone on this site about the subject/post they start. I will read it and move on if I disagree. It's time for you to learn to be respectful. Lastly, grow up already.

There could easily be the possibility that Texas has too much talent at wide receiver, and if you're Silas Bolden would you start having serious second thoughts about not coming to Texas? He's going to be so far behind the other receivers and the talent of these young guys will make it hard to keep them off the field.

LMAO, what? Clueless at best. Lol

I am so glad, yall weren't around when I was 16, the pranks we played on teammates would have us in prison with this group. I kind of hope Texas sings him to see how many quit being Longhorns fan

Let he without sin cast the first stone. He was stupid, but he was 16 and if has been forgotten by the player, and has apologized and learned a real lesson, then give the kid a chance.

I was incorrect about missing the game, it is missing the 1st half of the playoff game. Similar to targeting rule. If the announcers were correct. What chance would Texas have against either LSU or south carolina?

According to the announcers they said that all the players suspended would miss the first game of the NCAA tournament? If that's true, would that affect both those teams seating? Or would they still get number one seed for South Carolina.

So we all think there is a Texas bias in the rankings? Malik Murphy was the number two rated quarterback until he committed to Texas and then they dropped him down to just passed a hundred and ten I think? This last cycle almost all of the Texas top 200 players dropped on the final rankings. Three five star players became four stars? Not saying there's a bias, but it sure feels a bit strange?

I have not seen KJ play, but I have seen the kid from Duncanville play and he's good? Just wondering if a coach can fall in love with a kid to early? Or I like this kid in 2025, but I love the kid in 2026 a lot more.

Why is KJ Lacy not getting the love from the recruiting sites? He's ranked anywhere from 110 to 141? On 24/7 he is the number 14 ranked quarterback in the 2025 class? Whereas the kid from duncanville is top 50? Steve Sarkisian see something in him that the ranking services do not? And how would you compare the kid from duncanville versus KJ Lacy? I think there are 3 Texas kids ranked higher than KJ.

Thanks for the advice.

Is there a way to quantify the value of a number one wide receiver versus the number 2 wide receiver? For example is more the number one wide receiver on the board worth three points a game more than the next wide receiver on the board? Or is the difference so slight that there really isn't a point differential.

I do hope we pick up a really good DT in the portal, but they are few and faw between. The idea the OL players are not athletic is ridiculous, of course they are. Coaches will always view OL guys that are big and athletic a premium because they protect the quarterback. Yes it's a different skill set than a defensive lineman, but in today's world offensive lineman with really good feet play offensive tackle, you see centers that can pull and block because they have good feet. Yes Byron Murphy and Sweat were two great defensive tackles who were big and athletic, but as far as the other defensive tackles on this team they are not nearly as athletic, and I would say that Kam Williams and Trevor Goosby are just as athletic as any of the defensive tackles. I know it's easier to recruit a defensive tackle who has played that position his entire career, then trying to teach an offensive lineman a new position, so I get that. But what happens if you don't pick up a defensive tackle in the portal and somebody gets hurt? And no I'm not suggesting that they should move Cam or Trevor, just making a point about athleticism.

Just asking the question, Texas has a national championship quality team with the exception of death at defensive tackle. And if we can't pick up a defensive tackle in the portal then that may be the biggest issue next year. So I was thinking out of the box a little, we have a offensive lineman playing tight end who has caught a couple of passes, that's pretty athletic? Is it good chance we lose two or three offensive lineman in the portal this year, just looking at potential options.

Plenty of lawyer have become doctors, just takes schooling and training . Weak example.

I was talking about the younger guys, on the starters.

When you're a bad typist sure would be nice to have an edit button. LOL

Texas has so many offensive lineman, why not take one or two and see if they can play defensive tackle or nose guard? Most of these guys have probably paid defense before, and definitely has the size and the an explosiveness, it's just a matter of technique? If Texas does not pick up another defensive lineman, why not take a offensive lineman you may lose in the portal and turn him into a nose tackle?

That was 20+ years ago, most of the haters are over 40- 80 and should have grown up by now. I just hope the kid that gave out his phone number has apologized. That was an asshole move. Bobby, maybe you could get him on your show?

My bad Simms

I've been watching Chris Sims show where he's been interviewing Texas longhorns at the combine, and showing a lot of love for his longhorn brethren. I think it's time that the University of Texas figures out a way to bring him back to Austin by showing him Texas longhorns want him back. Maybe Texas could have a bring back the quarterback day, and bring back as many former Texas longhorn starting quarterbacks, which would include Chris Sims and Todd Dodge. Those two guys really don't get a lot of love from the University of Texas.

Just wait until the kids decide to go on strike for more money and we lose a season of football. This will get bad in my opinion.

Also, does this mean a school can go to another school and offer a player an nil deal even though they're not in the portal? Will you have to offer a high school kid or a portal person a contract a two-year deal worth x number of dollars? So they don't leave?
