    Im not against a bill that reigns schools in. I am however against all schools are equal. Texas brings in significantly more than Baylor for example. It should be tiered. The other issue I have is limiting actual NIL because some players are highly valued and will push this cap way over. You can not restrict a player on how much they can earn. By this way of thinking it would be a detriment to other players on the team. For example Arch, Simmons, Cam, Wingo, and Goosby will probably equal 70% or more. Where would that leave guys like Biles, D Will, Mosely etc.

    PK was a good coach, but he always played not to loose. Muschamp is a championship level DC. He plays to win. You have to be willing to take calculated risks and put your players in the position to win.

    Hoped for 2 5 star HS recruits in Sales and Royal...as of now 1 in the boat, but likely flipping so probably none. Texas will have a boatload of excess cash with Cam, Wingo, Arch, Simmons, and Goosby highly likely to go pro, so they will be able to keep the players on this roster that they want. With Sark and friends they will probably turn lemons into lemonade and find a gem none of us thought Texas had interest in.

    What are the biggest area/s of improvement did you see and what needs to be improved?? For me Arch throwing layered passes as opposed to rockets to everyone. I think thats part of the worm dirt searches he had a hard time with. Patience for Arch instead of quick bail, and communication for the oline. Defense would be just let the game come to you. By doing this, everyone gets the opportunity to chip in and the rest of the stats will come.

    I love the combo of Cam and Wingo, but the dude that has the highest likelihood of catching that many passes is Mosely if he can stay healthy. He wasnt healthy long enough last year to see what his YAC is. ANY way it goes itll be fun to watch.

    I dont know if thats the SEC standard or the Mannings upped the ante.
  7. watty7796
    Goosbys response is good, tho there were other issues that are well documented here. Penalties, Mental Errors, Leadership (which has me curious whose gonna be the guy here) and owning and fixing the issues as the season went along (Flood has to be more impactful here) to name a few.
  8. watty7796
    Bobby Dillon tho way before my time should be on this list somewhere.

    If and thats a big if, Texas OL can minimize the dumb penalties and get to their mark 75% of the time, I dont think it will matter if they know what play has been called. The upside of this Offense with the talent they have aquired should be top 5 in the country. Again that is if they dont have the mental errors/lapses or penalties. Even with the play diagnosed if they drop that many into coverage, how do you account for Archs feet. If you dont drop that many how do you cover Wingo, Mosely, Coleman and whicher back is in. Texas really did a good job getting the numbers advantage whichever way it goes in the passing game. What worries me is blocking in the run game, especially when it has to be between the tackles. G/C/G last year did not demonstrate the want to or personality to get that done. On offense and defense Texas needs to dictatate tempo and keep teams off balance.

    I doubt seriously that Texas will go into that game given the change in the chess pieces with anywhere near the same gameplan. If Texas develops into 3/4 of the ceiling i dont think OU has a chance. With that said, if Texas does NOT put this puzzle together, then BlowU and whatever edge PL can provide them extra ammo. Either way it depends on how Texas melds together. If they loose this game, it will be a direct reflection of this program and direction they are headed.

    Jett Bush is my guy here. Theres something about a player that was never counted on that comes out of nowhere and shows out.
  12. watty7796
    I know hes a bit salty but i doubt Sark has any regret for what followed. Id also venture a guess that Sark doesnt have him circled. BLOW U yes but not him.
  13. watty7796
    One question for Colin or any other leader or coach is how Important it will be for Texas to get off the faster starts. 1. Lets your defense eat 2. Gets younger players more time for game development/experience 3. It will allow your starters and 2 deep to rest and thus lessen opportunities for injury. Bottom line is this is a long season and the physical and mental grind wears anyone down. What say you?
  14. watty7796
    Colin has grown alot. Im impressed with the legacy over thw me mentality. Records and stats will take care of themselves.
  15. watty7796
    I would say no commitment is firm til the ink is on the paper. Someones word no longer means anything. Its no knock on anyone. Young people are swayed and in some cases situations change. Dont blame em, its part of the process.
  16. watty7796
    Now that the shoe has dropped...Other than Calis Williams is there any other recruits Texas is awaiting decisions for??
  17. watty7796
    Sales and LEC...are these the last uncommitted guys Texas is currently pursuing? I know there will be 1 or 2 senior evals and hopefully a flip or 2. It seems that every year all commitments are getting earlier and earlier.
  18. watty7796
    Haha...Sark is a great coach and fits the bill for what a Texas HC must be. Juggling donors, NIL, rabid fanbase, unreal expectations every year. Not many coaches are built for that. Winning at Texas is just not enough. You have to beat teams bad enough to leave no doubt, and you better not loose to ATM or Joklahoma. And why did you loose to Day and Smart again. Just to name a few. Im one of those guys, but sometomes i have to step back and look at the totality of all Sark has accomplished. Then I go sit in my corner shut up and color.

    Looking pre Mendoza Rourke @ IU 11-2 (2024) Jordon McCloud JMU 11-1 (2023) Todd Centio JMU 8-3 (2022) Cole Johnson JMU 12-2 (2021) 14-2 (2019) QB Coach and Recruiting Coord @ NCST Coached and developed a young man named Philip Rivers. No 4 overall pick. Dude wins, doesn't seem to matter a whole lot who the QB is. Solid system...and IMHO one of the top 2 or 3 to coach since 2000. It took him awhile to break through and climb the ladder, but you have to give credit where credit is due.
  20. watty7796
    Any word on how long he will be laid up? Same question ref Jonah W. How long will he be in the tune up shop before hes ready to go.
  21. watty7796
    When you dont have to have it and you care m ore about team and talent around you....Leadership with a capital L.
  22. watty7796
    I would agree, however they have a very very good coach in Cignetti. That dude just wins every where he goes. Do I think he will get developed the same. No. Do I think IU will be a winning program. As long as Cignetti is there. Absolutely. All I am saying is dont put the cart before the horse. IUs offensive scheme is good, and they play disciplined ball. And lets not forget, Texas spent a while walking through the wilderness before they got their footing back as well.
  23. watty7796
    Id like to see a ranking of overall coach+staff and another that has all head coaches as a cumulative across the athletic department. Also curious which AD is the best in the country.
  24. watty7796
    Not number 54 but the 54th overall NFL pick AD Mitchell.
  25. watty7796
    Lambo should put a Texas logo on a special car. Burnt orange Longhorn Badging. Tesla would be an option here too. Texas markets their logo and keep the other stuff off the jerseys.
