No Kelvin Banks? Day 1 starter and never looked back. First round draft pick.

Just breathe out Gerry. Relax and let the doctors do their job. You've got this.

If anyone can find A&M first televised SEC game you will be in for a TREAT. Right before they send it to the two announcers, the studio guys point out the national championship signs outside the stadium have mysteriously grown by several. They all start laughing and then the announcers begin.....................classic aggie. Even a new conference INSTANTLY recognized them as frauds.

They are also the people who think they are in good hands with Marcel Reed.

They make a blue pill for that.

I imagine certain publicly disclosed factors played into that list and I can further imagine A&M exaggerating on their end because that's just what they do. From stadium size to logo size to drum size they are clearly compensating for having an embarrassingly small...........uh...............trophy shelf. I guess they have a bad case of micro-shelf. Poor aggies.

Yahoo Sports wrote an article listing the most valuable college football programs. The Longhorns were first with a value of over 2 billion and aggie came in a distant second at 1.5 billion. That's NOT the funny part. It's this direct quote from the article: "Texas A&M proves that you don’t need a shelf full of trophies to be one of the most valuable businesses in the country." That back handed compliment was teeth shattering. I died laughing.

His tape looks good! I really like his ability to time his disengagement perfectly in order to make the tackle. He's clearly controlling the offensive lineman. I bet he rises in the rankings. He's a havoc player.

Congrats Young Man! You are Coach Boom's FIRST commit. What an honor.

This post is not what you think. By change, I mean philosophically. Rod B and others speculate that Sark is moving on from the "big human" prototype and embracing more athletic tackle types to play inside. Flood can develop tackles like nobody's business (let's not forget that). The game is evolving on inside line play and that might be a good thing for Flood. Last year (especially against GA) showed that quick, explosive defensive lineman trump "big humans" on the inside. Perhaps Sark's evolution of the prototypical lineman plays into Floods strengths? (developing athletic lineman as opposed to "people pushers") I'm being optimistic...........I know. I just have a hard time believing that Sark is going is simply accepting business as usual from Flood's IOL evals and development. That's not Sark's history. He evolves with the game. Examples: He now favors dual threat QBs and bigger receivers. That was not his preference five years ago but the game evolved and so did he at those two positions. Maybe this past season simply showed Sark and Flood that people pushers don't work anymore and that it's time to evolve. Maybe that's why we so many "big humans" go and seem to be signing more athletic types? Just a thought. This is based more on Sark's ability to adapt than ANYTHING I've seen from Flood on the inside.....just to be clear. I mean SOMETHING must be keeping Flood here right?

I've heard from a reliable source that there either is or isn't a mysterious Longhorn football player who may or not be playing guard who could have possibly or perhaps didn't enter the portal but probably didn't unless he definitely did. Of course all that could change. This is Casey67 with another ambiguously ambiguous breaking story. Back to regular programming.

You fail to mention the fact that you have to rifle through so much click bait found on X to even get to the real stories.............So if you want to hear things first, look at sources that posts everything they hear the moment they hear it. Then, have fun figuring out if it's real or not. People don't join OTF to hear things first. They join to hear things that have been CONFIRMED by Bobby and company.

outscored the combined CFP scores of Texas Tech and Texas A&M. Hey aggies and red raiders:

If your concerns are more for college football in general then, yea. This probably isn't good. But for Texas? We just have to adapt. We now have a farm system. We don't have to project how an 17 year old kid will do when he's had a year or two of development. We just have to watch ESPN. It's different for sure but it will drive viewership up. If there's some stud RB at Rutgers and Texas needs a RB, we might just watch the Rutgers game (or a rerun) towards the end of the season to get a look at our possible future. I will miss the old days for sure though.

I like Justin too. It would be cool to have him too.

True. Most of them seem like really good dudes. I hope someday that the sites start supporting each other...........kind of like what Joe Rogan does with other comedians. They all constantly have each other on their podcasts and support each other. It's such a win win for all of them. They literally don't view themselves as competitors. I think that could absolutely work with Texas football reporting but because 247 and On3 and Rivals are actual corporations, I doubt we'll ever see it. (All the comedians I was talking about are independent). Oh well. At least Chip broke the news that Arch Manning was returning........I kid.

Spot on. Bobby is the Texas Tech of the Moderator Portal. (the only one left that he needs to go get is Ian Boyd. I'd love to hear him and Rod B. break film down.)

Some folks just live to moisten there undergarments a bit. (I didn't use the term that Bobby banned! I just described it) But yea, if you follow this stuff long enough, you just develop patience. Remember all the panic about Stan Drayton's running back room? Just a few months later we're all watching Bijan and Rojo tear it up. The same thing could easily happen again at offensive line or running back. This is Texas. It can happen quick.

as in "Coach" flood of commitments I hope.......

Prayers for Jordan and his family. Such terrible news.

You need to do the Longhorn Blitz's Rod Babers introduction on the podcast.

When Gerry is traveling in his car and is crossing over to a state that has legalized marijuana, he often sends us a misspelled version of "high" to let us know he's arrived and won't be answering questions for quite a while.

It only matters if you're pasting something from behind their paywall. On3 posted that to Twitter. They made it public.

How bout Derrick Dockery? Jake was ok though. Definitely better then Robertson or Cole. Majors took a lot of blame which should have been directed at the guards beside him.

Did you really just mention Jake Majors in the same breath as Dan Neil and Casey Studdard? Shame on you.
