  1. Sometimes people lie!!!🤣
  2. Concerning Tenn. Until your team plays against an opponent with similar or better players you really don't know what you have. Talented inexperienced freshmen quarterbacks who have never been in this environment will be interesting. It is curious to see how he executes start to finish.
  3. Last sitting president to attend a Texas game at a place other than Austin? Gerald Ford, Texas vs OU 1976 in Dallas. BTW, it was also DKR's final game vs the sooners.
  4. Blake, he is a 2028 class recruit, correct. If so can he reclassify to 2027 and if so he would be 16-17 years old and thus a minor. Would that insure he would be on campus and not eligible for the ML draft by doing so? Thanks
  5. Not sure it has been mentioned but last time Texas beat #1 at home before last Saturday. November 4th 1950, Texas 23 SMU 20. Didn't realise that!

  6. Great team based on what? Gerry has maintained that the fighting Dabo's have talent interspersed throughout their ranks to a limited degree and if that is true you might be more accurate. However, the orange tigers looked like a very poor rendition of talent while the stay in your pro hopeful lane's will be interesting to watch as they move forward.
  7. Thanks CJ, I must have missed this earlier today.
  8. In the words of Barry Switzer when talking about Texas recruiting position. " Texas NIL means now its legal". Leave it to Barry to access the obvious.
  9. I have been married to one woman for more than 45 years, worked for the same company for 42 years ,one month, 18 days and 4.5 hours. Was involved with three volunteer different things. Two of them for 12 years the other for 17 years. Two of the three at UT. I don't quit things easy but last week I cancelled my sub to one of the others sites for Longhorn coverage after many years and decided that I am a one site guy. Everything Bobby does is top notch, from the talented people to the vision of what a great site should look like. Just settling in , and enjoying it a lot.
  10. Baseball is such a crazy sport. This team had a losing record in the SEC yet put it together at the right time. Momentum and performance. Amazing calm and focus they displayed in Omaha!!! Great job Skip.
  11. Bobby, it seems aggy relevance has always been defined by obsession to have what Texas has and they don't.
  12. I like that time of night.
  13. Aggy musings. Let's go back to a few years , Aggy has just learned that they have been betrayed by the SEC and that evil Texas has been invited and is going to be a new member of the Southeastern conference. In response aggy panics, screaming they had been promised to be the only Texas team in the conference. The howling is so sever that in retaliation they decide to spend Elon Musk type money to sign the highest rated class (2022) of all time just to beat the sips. Mercenary magic didn't work, Jimbo gone, Elko in! Fast forward to 2026. After losing the first two games vs Texas by double digits each with conference titles on the line and with two of their better teams. This time around they have to rebuild and are once again spending like a drunk sailor. #1 class, lots of 5 star hs recruits and should top what some have said too be more that 50 mil in NIL with hopes of stopping the bleeding and the day drinking. Gerry mentioned recently what life might look like in BCS for Elko if they go 0-3 vs the Longhorns. But I digress! Lets move to baseball shall we. Two years ago aggy is on the verge of a championship at the CWS. They come up short vs Tenn in the deciding game and two days later see their coach head to Austin to work for his friend CDC. Oh what a betrayal !! Wailing and nashing of teeth follow. Then aggy has to empty the bank account to keep key players from following Schloss to UT. BTW, did I mention that with those very expensive players they failed to make the NCAA tournament in year one and then looked uninterested a few weeks ago, getting crushed by USC in a home regional. Now, they are really big mad and going to get us back, running the table with big money for Football NIL to be #1 and today getting Cain to come back to the Brazos bottom for a big raise. Boy did they stick it to Texas ! A wise man once said, the aggy's don't want to just beat Texas. They want to BE Texas! They have Texas Derangement Syndrome (TDS) and I don't think its going to get better soon! There is no cure! Thoughts?
  14. Not a big fan of UCF but really loved the flyover during the National Anthem!! What a celebration!
