Totally agree. Too early.

RIP Chris Gilbert?
Four of us in the dorm drew tickets together for the 1966 TCU game. Henry was an amateur photographer with a great telephoto lense. He got this Pic of Chris Gilbert on his 96 yd TD run. He gave me a print of it. I went over to Moore Hill Dorm, found Chris, got him to autograph it. He was so kind to do it and said he'd never seen that angle. Lordy, he was so good and a thrill to watch.

UT Portal Exits
Somebody help me. I believe 26 UT players put their names in the portal this year and were there when it closed. Did any of them fail to find a landing place with another program?

State of the Team
@Bobby Burton @Gerry Hamilton @Rod Babers Following up on your State of the Team podcast this afternoon, I was right there with you guys on grading the Transfer class as B++. I took it a step farther in getting a weighted average for returning team, net transfers, incoming frosh and coaching.

NCAA employees
Quick thought without total in-depth scrutiny: Make all student athletes employees of the NCAA, with requirement that they be enrolled at a member university, carry min of 12 hour per semester, making progress toward a degree. Set pay based on university generated media revenue. Then member institutions can add true NIL money opportunities.

Roster composition
I am for a well paid 65 scholly athlete roster for football. Then a 50 person mix low-paid ($200/mo ??) scholly and walk-on JV/Development squad for development and injury "call-up" availability. Also, let this latter group play 5 games vs other similar DI squads or JUCOs or full DII teams.

Other schools message board conspiracies, meltdowns and screenshots
Thanks for posting all these board comments from Bama fans. Hilarious in context of Sun at 4:30ish PM.

Upgrades should happen at OU and Farmerland
If Sark has the gonads to let go of a solid Grade B DC, Venables and Elko should step up and replace Grade B QBs if they are serious in 2026. I hope they don't. Unless they both want to keep Grade B offenses. Or maybe switch to the Wishbone.

Texas non-conf big games
Seems to me the only reason Texas should play big non-conference games is if they received special revenue for it. I never understood a conference getting member media rights for non-conf games. Let each school make their own deals for those games. That way schools could have a reason to schedule big games. Why should Vandy or South Carolina or Arkansas, for instance, benefit from Texas playing Buckeyes or Wolverines or Irish or Trojans or Nittany Lions?

OU and Ags
Pretty dang good list. I'm still old school Cowboy fan (pretty Jerry) so sometimes my gut cheers for boys. Then I think for Jerry Hog Thinks-he's-a-football-genious.

OU and Ags
I may be considered a poor sport but I hope the Sooners and Farmers each lose significantly in the first round of CFP. It's bad enough that they flaunt their CFP appearances to us Horns, but first round wins would hurt. Ags losing to Miami is rough for me because Miami is way up on my "can't stand them" list. Anyone else feel same? Jim

Missing the CFP
I'm for the top 16, irregardless of conference champions. And a rework of the committee.

Missing the CFP
I contend the biggest factor in our record that hurt our CFP rating was the drubbing by Georgia. 1) A 25 point loss was disgraceful 2) any type win against UGA would have made us 10-2. And another Top 10 win.

DeBoer
Penn State is after DeBoer. If they get him, Alabama will have Sark at the top of their list. CDC better re-up Sark's contract again.

No Revielle
As I understand it Aggie will not be able to bring their doggy mascot to DKR tomorrow bc Bevo was denied to Kyle last year. 1) has Bevo ever been denied to Kyle in prior years? 2) wer ags forewarned last yr that Revielle would be banned this year?
