    The women's teams will need to carry the load again this year with football missing the playoffs (except for Swimming & Diving where both teams need to, but the men will be favorites for the title). Softball will be expected to compete for a championship, not sure where baseball will be, women's bball expected to compete, doubt it on men's bball (after watching Virginia take them to the woodshed), so far volleyball looking good.

    The sad thing about the big 12 is that without Texas and OU, literally anyone can win in that conference because there's no standouts. Luckily for tech, they have donors rich enough to flex their money and out spend the rest of the other schools. There's literally no blue blood or perennial power in the big 12 left.

    This is pretty much it. If they had someone already in their back pocket, the BYU coach fiasco wouldn't have happened. They would have just sat quietly until the person was ready to announce and one has to think that it would have been before signing day. For grins, let's assume that it's Deboer, and because his team is still in the hunt for the playoffs, he didn't want to pull a Lane Kiffin. Well he's just making it harder on himself when he does go to Penn St. Why would he make it better for the old employer than for the new one? That's why I don't think he's going. Kiffin's move may have been a douche move, but he had to move before signing day in order to prevent recruits from bailing.

    The rebuild at Penn St. is going to be just like when it was post Joe Paterno. It's going to be literally ashes.

    But then he wouldn't get paid from LSU right? Kelly can just wait for a really good situation and get paid.

    Not if all the stud players are off the board by the time they hire a coach.

    I live in Houston, Rice alumni are extremely well off on average, if they wanted to be competitive in NIL and field a strong football team, they could. It's just not a priority for them.

    Likely not Elko if Bobby’s theory in opposite style replacements. Elko is defensive mind.

    BYU would be a massive step back considering he's at a blue blood with other blue bloods courting him (Bama).

    Penn St. fired Franklin early hoping to get a jump on a coaching search only to be left out in the dust with no great options. They aren't who they think they are.

    And that was Georgia's only loss I believe, so they got screwed that year. Bama was in because they won the championship game, and Texas beat Bama that year head to head, so they couldn't leave Texas out without leaving Bama out, but then you can't leave out the SEC champ. FL got screwed because their QB got hurt.

    Methinks those hoping for Cam Coleman to enter the portal might not like the result of it. Gerry stated before, Texas wouldn't be the only team chasing him - I would say that given he was committed to the aggies prior to flipping to Auburn that he'd give them a hard look considering what he's seen from their wideouts this year. Those farmers won some major portal additions last year, they'll be a thorn again this portal season.

    Bama is not going to be left out, they lead the SEC going into the conference championship game. imo it’s the Notre dame live fest that trumps Texas because among the names at the bottom half, only Notre dame has the same type of national pull as Texas. if Texas doesn’t make the cfp, maybe that’ll light a fire under Sark to run up the score next year on everyone. He sounds pissed enough last few days. also Sark needs to politic for the team to go to the cfp to keep the team’s trust in him. If he says they don’t deserve to go, then likely there’d be some fallout with the players. It’s like an old boss of mine always said to us - “I’ll always have your back if you keep me in the loop. Even if you screw up.”

    Like you said, Saban made the Bama fanbase spoiled with impossible expectations. If you're not winning multiple championships, they'll call for blood. Those fans won't even be happy just to competitive for the post season.
  16. HookemTexas
    Which is odd considering he left ou to run away from the SEC.
  17. HookemTexas
    What's he done that would make him desirable? Tennessee's been so up and down, and this year, down compared to expectations. And they just got spanked by Vandy in their rival game.
  18. HookemTexas
    If Texas is on, they should be able to make it to the final four. Hopefully freshman don't make too many mistakes.

    There will be openings in the big 12 and ACC, Riley would absolutely kill it in those conferences because there's only 1-2 major games a year. a la when he was at ou in the big 12.
  20. HookemTexas
    Yep, Texas is being punished for the Florida loss because while they beat some teams above, no one has as bad a loss on their resume.

    This stuff is what makes college football fun. Reminds me of when in high school, when our school played against the rival last week of the season, there were so many pranks, the various clubs from each school would play each other in non-official football (band vs band, choir vs choir, German club, etc. I was a "band nerd" and my senior year both band directors bitched out their respective bands because of all the injuries from people hitting each other so hard that bones were broken. In our side, our 1st few chairs (aka the best people for their instruments) were all injured and could no longer participate in UIL marching competition because there were broken arms, broken legs, etc. Good times.

    Jordan Lee is getting there, she's looking like the 3rd star player right now after Booker and Harmon, not afraid to take it to the hole or take the shot, and plays great defense. Coach Vic's building a monster with the the next class coming in as well.
  23. HookemTexas
    Thanks, but Thanksgiving responsibilities trumped watching tonight.
  24. HookemTexas
    Couldn’t watch the game being on trutv, did they say why Crump and Preston are out?
  25. HookemTexas
    Such stupid scheduling not actually trying to put the few rivals left against each other on rivalry week.
