  1. @Gerry Hamilton does the unexpected early emergence of Nick Brooks as a guy on the two-deep at Offensive Tackle this season, change the number of the OTs Texas may take in the 2027 recruiting cycle? Goosby, B.Baker, N.Brooks, A.Cojoe sounds like a top 4 OTs, and all 4 players have 2-4 more seasons of eligibility (unless they leave early for the NFL)? Maybe we need only 2 true OTs in the 2026 cycle, and also considering how loaded the in-state 2027 class appears to be at Offensive Tackle?
  2. It’s always good to get a Jimmy Johnson from Miami on campus.
  3. I agree with the original poster re: Pecan Lodge. Good, but not great, and it’s not in the same area code (literally 😀) of many of the best Central Texas BBQ stops. In Dallas-Ft.Worth area, I prefer Panther City, Goldee’s, and even Heim to anything in Dallas. Hutchins is pretty good. I’ll be at Snow’s on Saturday morning on my way to the Horns - UGA game (weather permitting), and Snow’s always delivers. I’m hoping to see Tootsie again. In Centex, I’m a big Louie Mueller’s guy, Black’s in Lockhart, and Stiles Switch. RIP Valentina’s.
  4. Fun fact: that montage showed the famous backboard shattering “send it in, Jerome” play from college basketball lore. Trivia: who passed the ball to Jerome Lane to get the assist on that famous dunk?
  5. Give me S.Utu (OG), Krempin (C), and Nic Robertson (OG) as the 3 IOLs this class.
  6. Texas takes current aggy coaches, while Aggy takes fired Texas coaches. The pecking order is pretty clear.
  7. Sark is planning to run the old 12-personnel recruiting visit formation. He’s always thinking ahead.
  8. Trev Alberts must be a real pleasure to work with….top notch coaches are literally running for the exits (Schloss, now Buzz). I wonder how much of this is the Jimbo effect…having a massive debt to pay off is impacting the level of commitment to facilities and NIL in non-football sports? Add in the upcoming $20M needed to meet House revenue sharing requirements and the funds prioritization must not be baseball, basketball, etc.
  9. I have Aggy going wayyyy under 7 wins. Oh wait, I thought this was baseball projections 😂
  10. Who does he think he is…Kelee Ringo?
  11. His father was a two-time NCAA high jump champion, and leaped 7’6”+ to make the 1988 U.S. Olympic team as an alternate. Talk about good genetics.
  12. Can you imagine this guy being in the same offense as Bryce Underwood and Dakorien Moore??!! Oh wait….
  13. UC-San Diego up 13 with 1:33 left.
  14. Yeah, when I compare our resume to Xavier, I’m lost as to how they are considered to be ahead of us. They are 2-9 in Quad 1 games, and their top 4 non-conference opponents are nearly identically ranked as our top 4 non-conference opponents based on NET rankings. The only difference is the overall records. Texas is 8-10 spots higher than Xavier in NET, and above them in WAB.
  15. Yeah, I think with Boise State beating UNM, we may now be the last team out. To make matters worse, if Colorado State beats Utah State (they are up 9 pts early) that will set up a situation where the winner of Boise vs Colorado State automatically gets into the tournament. Both of these teams were behind Texas starting play today (according to Lunardi), so this may be the bid steal that dooms Texas. Assuming the above, I think the final Play-In spot is now between UNC and Texas. The fact that UNC made it a competitive game against Duke in the second half may change committee perceptions (from the dreadful first half for UNC). Aside from this Boise vs Colorado St scenario, Texas needs to be aware of North Texas upsetting Memphis in the AAC tourney, which would also be a bid steal that may doom Texas.
  16. Does the fact that we have Tennessee a decent game while UNC is getting blown out of the gym matter in the calculations? UNC may lose by 30 to a Duke team without their best player.
  17. OU, Indiana, Xavier, and SD State all losing (while Texas wins over a highly ranked team) is just about a perfect day in Bubbleland.
  18. I’d assume it’s a DL. USC is pushing “Coach Henny” (LOL), and USC focused on DL with their early stage NIL giveaway last cycle too. Plus, the state of California grows far fewer elite DL prospects than the SEC footprint, so they’ve got to make outsized NIL promises to address the talent shortfall.
  19. Parks was arrested on Sunday, March 2, and charged the following day (March 3). He had been hired by LSU in February. The incident took place on Dec 17, in Oregon, while Parks was on the Ducks staff.
  20. Well, obviously, because LSU would have no idea that a staffer they hired would later be charged for choking his lady while employed at Oregon. But other than that… I guess Texas should’ve turned away Chris Beard and Xavier Worthy for being charged with beating up / choking their ladies as well? If only Texas had turned them away for character issues…like a good organization.
  21. Can this standard now be applied to the Xavier Worthy thread?
  22. So, your theory is LSU intentionally hired a low level staffer knowing that he would be eventually charged by Oregon police for choking his lady? Or is your theory that LSU has sources placed in the Lane County, Oregon District Attorney’s office to monitor pending investigations and possible criminal charges being filed? Whichever, it’s an interesting theory.
