Honestly, I hope he does take this all the way to the first national signing day. As of right now, LSU feels they are going to flip him. It’s a matter of when and not if. This means their pressure has not hit full throttle yet. If he can get to December without flipping, then he can sign with Texas and get out of town without dealing with all the backlash from friends, teammates and probably some family members. I’m sure he will make enough in NIL to relocate his mother and siblings if they want to be closer. I hope his agent has talked with him and his family about being a professional and dealing with the public and fan peer pressure. I could be wrong, but I thought Bobby had mentioned that his agent was the same agent of Cam Coleman. If that is the case, his recruitment will play out respectfully and not end up like some others in the past. Fingers crossed. And happy 17th birthday Easton!

I was always hoping he would reclassify so he would not have to deal with the LSU pressure to stay in state.

I echo Jonathan Brooks. Was the 23 team our best team to win it all? If Brooks had not got hurt, we beat Washington and play Michigan. A.D Mitchell, Worthy and Brooks against that Michigan defense. What if Ewers came back for his final season in 2025? I know he struggled in 2024, but doubt Texas loses to Florida in the swamp and maybe we beat Ohio State on the road. We make the playoffs at least and with the talent we had who know what could have happened.

I saw this yesterday and was surprised that Arch was rated at only 91.

Excited to see the team come together and play as a team. Last year it did not seem like they played that way until the last few games of the year. Hoping to see it from start to finish this year. Arch getting the ball to his playmakers (Coleman, Wingo and Mosley) Running backs finding the holes the oline has created and making people miss in open field. Defense attacking and causing havoc. If the above takes place, think we will be in for a fun and memorable season.

I’ve been a member since Bobby & Gerry started OTF. First memory of Texas football was “Roll Left w/ James Brown”.

Is Jhadyn Nelson a top recruit? For that many coaches to go and visit him, it seems he is of high priority. Is he the same level of LB prospect as Gouda?

So true. The run game was working but both Baxter and Blue put the ball on the ground. That made Sark not trust the run at times. I don’t recall Brooks ever having that issue. What could have been!

I still believe to this day that if Brooks does not go down with that season ending injury, TX would have beat Washington and played for the championship.

I see the tweet says 5 star running back. How good is he? If he reclassified to 27, would he still be upper echelon such as Crowell from Alabama.

Is there a scenario where Texas lands both Culpepper and Gouda? Or is it like Xavier Griffin and Atkinson where they won’t end up at the same school.

I recently saw 5 star running back David Gabriel George included Texas in his finalist list. Was just curious if Texas was truly actively recruiting him or if this was just just done to make his list star studded. I don’t recall Gerry mentioning him when he talked about possible running back options for 27. He has Georgia, Miami, Tennessee, Ohio State, Bama etc. within his finalist. Just wondering if Texas will be making a strong push and would he be considered a true difference maker at the position.

Legend Bey. He should have been offered this past summer on his name alone. Not to mention that Tennessee offered him. They have had some good receivers over the past couple of years.

Maybe Sark should call a couple of QB run plays to get Arch going? From what I’ve seen of him, he does not start to become accurate until later on in the game after he has had time to settle down.

Malcolm Brown. I remember when he committed to Texas. Was so excited. Thought he was going to be the next Cedric Benson. Must admit. He had a more memorable pro career than collegiate. Brandon Foster comes in second. Relatively unknown in his recruiting class to becoming a true player later on in college. Had a great senior season.
