I saw him early in the game and thought, "Man it would great to get him in the portal"

I really think Sark is waiting for CFP players to exit after their season ends. If given the option, I would rather spend NIL on Golden to return than take a flyer on Singleton and/or Branch

I see people whose family members end up in jobs in the corporate world all the time. Especially if one of them is incredibly talented or powerful, this is about leverage and Zach has it. And I don't think it's just about the money. He has a chance to bring his brother with him to his next job and school. Get his brother a chance and have someone in his corner and with him. This is not about a school, this is a job, and their career. And someone is willing to make this deal. It may not be Texas and that is fine. I prefer Texas not making the kinda deal. But from their standpoint, if Texas said, "Yeah we will take both of you" why wouldn't take that deal? Great education if you want it, a chance at a national title, exposure to play with Arch, and you are paid market value with the opportunity to help provide for your family. You have to ask Texas if they are interested. I get it and am not mad about it, but I hope Texas passes.

Rumor is that Arnold is headed to Miss St. with Lebby

Malik has entered the portal after leading Duke to a 9-3 season. I wonder where he ends up. I hope not OU or A&M.

I think we still need an experience reliable big back to go with Baxter and Gibson.

A&M just flipped the Cocoa 2026 QB who is re-classifying to 2025. @Gerry Hamilton Any idea how close Javion is with his QB? Moves the needle?

I appreciate that Sark also is thinking about the big picture. If he offered Keelon, we would lost KJ for sure. And the likelihood that either one sits for 2 years behind Arch is slim. And with Trey in the program, you are not even guaranteed to be 2nd QB up. I trust in Sark's decision-making. Besides the last time we had a QB verbally committed (Jalen Milroe) and started offering other QBs like Nussmeier, we ended up with none.

I wonder if an SMU team that goes 8-0 in conference but slips up in the ACC championship game get in over a 6-2 Big 10 or SEC team that couldn’t even make the championship game. The committee said the would try not to penalize teams that lost for the first time in the CCG. Texas need to win out AND win the CCG to keep controlling its on destiny

my guess is CB Littleton

With the transfer portal, never back off. The chance of him going to Oregon, getting home sick, or the situation changing and him deciding to be closer to home in Year two of Arch is too value not to keep building that relationship.

Who is next in line at FSU?

So I have compiled a list of commits/targets and existing players ranked by their high school ranking. I did this to put into context what it means to sign a Ryan Wingo or lose a Michael Fasusi. If we sign a Javion Hilson, what does that mean in comparison to other player we have signed? I did this using the 247 composite rankings. Originally I was curious who the top 22 players were in the program. Then I wanted to see all the players ranked in the national top 70 (Ryan Niblet and above). Then Ended up ranking every with a .9000 and above rating. The talent has really improved over the years. Only 4 Seniors on the list (Quinn Ewers, Alfred Collins, Vernon Broughton, & Jake Majors). Juniors? Only 8 out of 63 players. The future of the team is really bright. We probably should be a little more excited about the future of Kobe Black. Top 2022-2026 Commits + Targets, Freshman, Sophmore, Junior, Seniors 247 Composite Q. Ewers 1.000 Arch Manning .9995 Dakorien Moore .9989 Colin Simmons .9958 Jonah Wiliams .9957 Devon Campbell .9944 Michael Fasusi .9928 Dia Bell .9926 Kaliq Lockett .9907 Jaime Ffrench .9904 Anthony Hill .9897 Cedric Baxter .9893 Brandon Baker .9885 Kobe Black .9885 Ryan Wingo .9875 Johntay Cook .9864 Xavier Filsaime .9854 Kelvin Banks .9842 Micheal Terry .9837 Javion Hilson .9832 Malik Muhammad .9786 Riley Pettijohn .9775 Lance Jackson .9808 Derek Wiliams .9765 Ryan Niblett .9719 Jerrick Gibson .9721 Alfred Collins .9706 Jalani McDonald .9626 Nathaniel Owusu-Boateng Neto Umeozulu .9599 Elijah Barnes .9585 Madden Faraimo .9653 D.

DJ U is terrible

Interesting that Bill Norton is never mentioned on these lists. Maybe I need to temper my hopes even more.
