I am not saying Arch is injured. However, forgive us if we don’t trust Sark who never told us about Worthy’s injury that he played through or Quinn’s injury, etc. Arch definitely grimaces and has some serious stinker throws.

A different perspective from Dan Orlovksy. Dan says it was not Arch playing poorly as much as Matt Patricia dialing up NFL concepts that Arch had never seen. It is a good 2min 30sec video. Instagram link

Hook me up too! Thx

I don’t understand all the hand wringing. Guys - this is simple. Here is Sark’s strategy: 1. Invite guys to visit unofficially to show they are interested. 2. Have guys come on official visits and show them all the amazing things UT has to offer and have them fall in love. 3. Start handing out NIL offers as a way to “choose” the guys they want. Low ball guys that are low on the list and see if you can get “value” commitments and give the guys you want a “solid competitive offer”. 4. Guys who love UT will commit with NIL offers that are on or under budget. 5. Guys who do not commit but the staff really wants - you keep recruiting through the whistle with knowledge of what the NIL market is for the player. 6. Circle back in December and match NIL offers for guys you want and since they loved everything about UT they will choose the good guys by simply matching or getting close to the NIL number. This ensures UT is never setting the market or bidding against themselves. Effective and genius!!

Maybe we are not watching the same tape. That is a man among boys on the film! Admittedly, I cannot speak to the competiton level, however, that guy pops on tape IMO.

@Gerry Hamilton Meaning you think it is Bama or NOT Bama? Michigan and Texas were thought to be the leaders, right?

Colin Simmons 2.0 ?

My daughter’s friend is doing an AP research project on whether your political affiliation is correlated to your beliefs on schizophrenia. No personal data needed. Takes 2-3 mins. Thx!! Survey

Exactly!!! We were young and poor so did $10, $20, $40, $80, etc. table limit of $1000 got us

lol - I tried this in my younger years in Vegas on Roulette. I thought I had it all figured out playing black and red. I would wait for 3 in a row and then bet the opposite and keep playing that color but doubling my bet every time. Of course, Vegas wins because of Table Limits! At some point, I could not keep doubling my bet.

I heard Joel Klatt discussing how the game plan was to get to the perimeter in short yardage situations. That is what the tape shows since OSU (similar to us) has had many goaline or short yardage stuffs. i am surprised we did not bring Arch in for some zone read / boot options. edit: Just heard Arch was not available. He was concussed on the other run play. True??!?!?

Having an older and experienced team matters. One thing I don’t think has been discussed much re: Texas and the transfer portal is Sark seems to get one year rentals. He seems to not want to rock the boat with multi year eligibility guys that are not planning to go pro. He has seen it did not work out with Cole or Savea or Carter. He likes to sprinkle on top with players off to the NFL. i understand that is a luxury but also different that some schools approach.

I’ll play…. My Prediction Probable: Michael Terry + Javion Hilson Surprise: Malcolm Simpson Possible Flip: Dorian Brew, Michael Fasusi, Riley Pettijohn Class Ranking: 3rd

I got this from an A&M buddy. Sure hope we kick the crap out of those weirdos.

Just met Bobby @ the Local in Nashville. Looks like a good turnout. Nice guy - here is a pic with my boys.

And…..care to share more??

Gotta have Florida State Maybe Florida as well

Didn’t see it posted. Thought you would want to know. I’ll duck now!! (No pun intended)

Sounds like a great coach

Title IX makes it very difficult to pull off

Good stuff Gerry. They seem like great young men. Interesting list of schools for Derry Norris.

Me likely Dear…..that kid good!!!

Video My brother is an OU fan. He watched this video with Jason Belzer who runs the OU Collective as well as Vanderbilt, GT, Rutgers, Wake Forrest, etc. He is VERY transparent about how NIL works, talks specifics and talks about Dillon Gabriel and Cayden Green. Apparently OU spends $4M per year and is a top 15 spender. Each kid got at least $26k, with the average being $45k. The most insightful and behind the current interview I have heard. Sorry it is about OU, but super interesting.

Good stuff - don’t sleep on Auburn
