Edwards visits Texas for tOSU game and all the feedback is Texas leads. Then, Edwards visits Tech for Coog High game and now all the RPMs are for him to go to Tech. Don’t need to be a rocket scientist to figure out what happened was offered on the Tech visit that wasn’t on the Texas visit? And to whom that offer was made (hint: it’s not necessarily the player making the decision here)?

He didn’t get any snaps against tOSU o. Saturday, correct?

This is what happens when you forget to pay the electric bill.

2028, I assume?

Followed by their kicker

10 points may be too much for Mateer and the OU offense to overcome 😂

OU is paying Livingstone $800k. In two games so far, he’s caught two passes for 14 yards and a fumble.

Defense - Lawrence Taylor Offense - Walter Payton honorable mention: John Elway

Steven Wright, Dennis Miller, and Andy Kaufman (more of a performance artist than comedian, but funny and irreverent).

Not a lawyer but I assume this amended filing in a federal court is to give Sankey / SEC full power superseding any future Louisiana state court rulings on the matter, and includes the punishment clause so that the same Louisiana court can’t TRO the SEC handing out that punishment. Preemptive authority given to Sankey, including punishment.

Sure he could’ve been that at Texas (and he was given that offer), but he chose to take a bigger paycheck from Florida State. And he never bothered to inform Texas of his decision to go elsewhere via the Portal, and instead decided not to show-up for the team flight to Orlando for the Cheez-it Bowl (after having practiced with this the Texas team throughout bowl prep). Decisions have consequences.

On the flip side, Wisner will earn more money playing football this season than he will at any other point in his playing career. In fact, it may well be the last paycheck of his football career. Maybe he realized he would be a P4 level back-up RB wherever he went, so he took the biggest paycheck to serve as an RB2 / RB3?

It looks like “OR” is going to get a lot of reps against Texas St.

RC Slocum - 14 seasons - 123 wins, 3 conference titles, 3-time conference “Coach of the year” awards, 0-5 in NY6 bowls. Never coached for a National championship. Zero top 5 ranked finishes. Fred Akers - 15 seasons - 108 wins, 3 conference titles, 3-time conference “Coach of the year” awards. 1-3 in NY6 bowls. Coached in 2 National championship games. Three top-5 ranked finishes.

A&M got a 5-year NCAA probation (including no TV appearances and no bowl game in 1994) for violations in Slocum’s first 3 years as HC. This was after aggy fired Jackie Sherrill for recruiting violations and probation in 1988 (with RC as his DC, and noted by the NCAA investigation as being a facilitator of illegal payments to recruits). Those recruiting violations (boosters paying players), led to the apex of the Slocum era (and perhaps aggy football all-time), where they won 3 straight SWC titles from 1991-1993. Of course, those aggy teams managed to lose all 3 Cotton Bowls those years, as well as losing non-conference games to schools like Tulsa (yes, Tulsa!), and a 30-pt loss to OU. My personal favorite Slocum achievement was his first season in the Big 12 (1996) where he lost his first two non-conference games to unranked foes (one loss to Steve Sarkisian-led BYU, and another loss to ULaLa). He then opened Big 12 play by losing to Colorado, K-State, and Tech. In fairness, Slocum did finish second in the B12 conference in 1997, and celebrated this by losing another Cotton Bowl (0-4 in Cotton Bowls for RC). In 1998, Slocum was a heavy underdog but managed to upset K-State in the B12 Championship game in OT. Slocum celebrated by losing the Sugar Bowl, making him 0-5 in NY6 Bowl games for his career. After 1998, Slocum went 16-16 in Big 12 play over his final 4 seasons, and was fired in 2002. It doesn’t require much connecting of dots to conclude Slocum inherited the best team money could purchase in the dying SWC era, parlayed that into 3 SWC titles. But, his teams always lost non-conference and bowl games during that 3-year apex era, so nothing translated into any worthwhile national achievements. Once the Big 12 came into existence (1996) it didn’t take too long for Slocum and aggy found their historical level (mediocrity) and he was fired by 2002. I assume aggy built the Slocum statue so that current generations of aggy fans would be aware that they actually won a conference championship within the last 30 years.
