    Agree with this, less time to think and overthink, let your training and natural abilities take over. I was never an elite athlete, but I did complete some Ironman triathlons, my friends always told me on race day to ease my nervousness - just trust your training. That's all the Longhorns needs to do, trust their training - they have some of the best coaches in the sport.

    It's strictly a business decision for them, they do the cost analysis of how many they think will still subscribe and how many they think they'll lose and make their decision on what they think makes them the most money. Basically looking for the sweet spot on price where they maximize revenue.

    I'm expecting the Fox games to be available via the antenna, so I just purchased a $20 one off Amazon. For the rest of the games, assuming an ESPN network, I caved in and got the Disney bundle special for $29.99/mo. for all ESPN unlimited. I figured it was the cheapest route as I don't watch much anything else on any of the streaming networks to make the full cost worthwhile.

    I’m thinking this may be a precursor to the SEC changing the champion game to a play in game for 3/4 or 5/6.

    Last year Texas was down to pretty much 2 RBs and a QB that didn't have the skillset to run. This year, Texas has it's full stable of backs along with a QB that will take off and is pretty fast at that. Go ahead and play a 3 front and get gashed. If the O-line can't create holes against a 3 man front, Texas is in worse shape than what we've been sold.

    You can throw in aggie softball from this past athletic season too, after all, they run ruled Texas in the SEC conference tournament. Did they print cups?

    Have to create the perception that it's a "punishment". If they go celebrating like "haha we got away with it" then . . . well doesn't really affect anything really.

    I would seriously consider buying an Osterflex jersey if it was a real thing.

    Which would mean pretty much everyone involved would be gone, they get their natty with basically little to no consequences. The school is paying the financial penalties, not them.

    And they'll be games against inferior opponents where the team could basically coach themselves without needing any coaches on the sideline and still would win handily 99% of the time.

    Agreed, basically says cheat your way to a championship, we won't take it away. The revenue the school makes on the championship run will more than make up for any penalty. Essentially there's not much of an ROI hit.

    It is, that's what drew me to the idea, Old Metallica is better than their new stuff also.

    I'm a bit old school as this will show my age, but something like this with the team strolling in a la Remember the Titans (but not dancing like that) would be badass imo. Just gives a vibe of confidence. https://youtu.be/lYn0QdBmtfM?si=r1cQdMPKC87GBYT5

    Not just Caleb Williams, Texas has problems with new QBs, Stockton at Georgia brought them back when they couldn't move the ball at all.

    I think based on what's been said, he stays at least 2 years regardless. If he wins both Heisman and natty? He could stay and try to repeat both, a feat I don't think has ever been done?

    This is not apples to apples - when the men's game started, there weren't lucrative TV contracts, social media, widely available viewing in your pocket, etc. Throw in that it wasn't a global game at the time and the concept of athletics as a career was not a thing like it is today. I don't think they are losing money in that it's a negative for them, I think the league isn't making money and they are in the red, but it's probably a write-off or something worked in, they are just using the words not making money (which can be true) but the owners themselves aren't losing millions.

    I want to see a beatdown like Bama vs Fl St. to start the season a few years ago with Texas playing the role of Bama.

    This is a really tough loss, he's the coach that gave Reese Atwood said signaled to her to swing while being intentionally walked in the national championship game 1. The team's hitting greatly improved when he came on board.

    At some point you'd think they would eventually come off the cliff and learn that the world is not out to get them, in fact the world doesn't even really care. They should listen to the great Kansas band's lyrics . . . "all we are is dust in the wind"
  20. HookemTexas
    Disagree on that take, you get him reps where you can, he's already lost last year. He'll have the added benefit of being completely fresh and it will allow the other guys to rest to get ready for the post season (assuming Texas is going far). There's plenty of games to go around and getting him prepared to contribute in the playoffs would be huge as well.

    I thought about this today as well, still have not received anything. I'm about to contact my credit card for review. They are on the Texas One Fund page so I imagine there's some sort of partnership there, but to date I've been really disappointed. Complete lack of communication.

    Just like softball this season, they can have the regular season, I'll take the championship.

    Started watching WWF back when it was Hulkamania, Junkyard Dog, Ricky the Dragon Steamboat, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Andre the Giant, Iron Sheik . . . have lost a lot of legends.

    Good point, but with potentially issues of sanctions, USC might be able to get away w/o a buyout. All depends on what all happened and contract details of course.

    My money would be on Riley at USC. Their boosters don't have much patience and they seem to be giving him money to get a good recruiting class.
