    Kiffin’s absolutely one of the best offensive minds in the game, no doubt. But if we’re talking better, the list is basically Sark and that’s it. They’re the only two guys consistently operating at that level - elite scheme, QB development, adaptability, the whole package. Everyone else is a tier down.

    Good info from both of you. With the NCAA dragging its feet, it’s hard to know if this hits immediately or not. If seniors really do get another year, that’s a ton of roster chaos. Texas having two spots is nice, but with the need for a big + limited NIL, it’s tough to see many of those guys fitting unless they’re willing to take less. Most would probably have to hit the portal anyway.

    I never watch the NFL Draft because I don’t need 32 GMs reminding me they also have no idea what they’re doing. That being said, any longhorns drafted yet?

    I was frustrated too when the departures happened, but it’s really not doom‑and‑gloom. The portal deadline just means players had to enter by that date - they can still choose schools now. There are still plenty of proven players available, and Texas is an attractive landing spot with Booker, a top recruiting class, and a staff that wins. Would I prefer experienced portal players over more freshmen? Absolutely. And that’s exactly what the staff should be targeting. It’s not too late, and it’s not a failure - it’s just the new reality of roster building. I’m confident Texas will add the right pieces.

    The talent is wild now. Back in Cheryl Miller’s day, nobody had to deal with Vic Schaefer’s defense breathing down their neck for 40 minutes. 😀

    @GoHorns1 @HookemDTX “Y’all are debating the dictionary more than the roster. If ‘reload’ means keeping stars, then no. If it means bringing in elite replacements, then yes. Either way, those five freshmen are the ammo in the reload, so you’re basically agreeing without realizing it.”

    Really good stuff Jeff. The havoc drop‑off really showed up in the losses - when this defense wasn’t creating negative plays, everything bogged down. Muschamp’s more aggressive man‑coverage approach should give the DBs way more chances to attack routes, and if the front can pair that with more consistent pressure, Texas can get back to that 2024 level of disruption

    I would have guessed Liv McGill, but according to CBS sports she committed to OKST yesterday. Know Texas was looking at her. Some of thes players fit Texas needs. So maybe Audi Crooks → scoring center Addy Brown → versatile forward Kymora Johnson → dynamic guard ***Brown to me with be a home run hit for any team 😀

    Today (4/15) begins the Spring signing period - So, today is the first day Etute is allowed to officially sign. Got that VIC?😃

    I get where you’re coming from, and you’re right that Vic’s system is built on defense and mobility. I just think Crooks could still bring something Texas hasn’t had in a while ---a steady interior scorer who can settle the offense when transition isn’t there. With the length and athleticism Texas already has around her, she wouldn’t need to switch everything. She’d just need to rebound, wall up, and finish, which she can do. She actually adds a different dimension that could make Texas tougher to guard. Just another way to look at it.

    This is an awesome post Jeff. Really enjoyed reading it. I think your take makes a lot of sense. Sark’s background with Saban and Carroll means he’s always understood what a high‑level defensive practice structure looks like, so it’s not surprising that Muschamp’s approach fits naturally with what Sark already believes. PK wasn’t a bad coordinator by any stretch, but fit matters when you’re trying to move from “good” to “championship level.” Muschamp comes from the same defensive lineage as Sark’s biggest influences, so the emphasis on live reps, physicality, and detailed teaching lines up more cleanly with Sark’s overall philosophy. And you’re right - the way Muschamp talks about the practice plan really does reinforce why he was Sark’s first choice from the beginning. It’s not just scheme; it’s the daily structure, the way you practice, and what you emphasize. That alignment is already showing up this spring.

    Don't think the sport isn’t dying - it’s just in a messy transition. The portal and NIL aren’t the real issue - it’s the fact that there’s zero structure around them. Until there are actual rules and some kind of governing backbone, it’s going to feel like chaos. The system needs fixing, not scrapping.
