    Ricky Williams played pro baseball and college football at Texas. I don't know many who have done that, either. Donovan McNabb played college basketball and football at Syracuse. Tony Gonzalez played both at Cal. It takes a pretty high-level player to get the coaching staffs in two sports to accept it.

    This is a team with some really talented seniors and a lot of overall experience. They should have a good year.

    No offense, but we have no idea what Kenny Baker will or won't do.

    Somebody show that fella how to hook them horns.🤘

    That’s why I thought it was a strange sponsorship. Cotton as a brand name is already part of the Texas product landscape.

    I loved T+1. Hopefully we can get back to that.

    Press Release from Cotton Holdings So Cotton Holdings is the sponsor of the all-sports series (Lone Star Showdown) with a trophy based on points. Like the Director's Cup, but just for Texas & A&M. Doesn't look like there are other details about football at this point.

    Cotton Holdings as the game sponsor would be peculiar, considering the cotton bowl as the location for TX/OU.

    I think you can only edit for 10 minutes. It seems to drop that option after that window closes. My experience anyway. edit #1

    Trev's gonna hit CDC with the pie-to-the-face trick and Ags will laugh themselves silly for the next decade about how they pwn Texas.

    So a guy who thought he should be allowed to officially represent UT felt snubbed when he was told there was a vetting process? I think there’s some Deion Sanders level self importance here. It sounds like Harris was right to distance the athletic department from him.

    Bragging about convincing a recruit to decommit isn't the flex that you think it is.

    CCG should be changed to resemble the old Superstars competitions. Make it a fun spectacle but not too taxing physically. There's no sense in risking player health for what is now a meaningless game.

    Sark has mentioned several times this off-season that the featured player at a given position will depend on the tendencies and style of the opponent. I think Jahdae is going to play CB against run-oriented teams like Michigan. It adds an extra run defender (and Barron is one of the best) near the LOS. Barron, Guilbeau, and Muhammad are the top 3 CB's at defending the run. When we play Colorado State, it will probably be a different mix. That's what I'm expecting.

    I'm excited to see a potential Syracuse-Texas matchup. UConn, NC State, & Ohio State are good games. UConn is the only home game that will put butts in the seats. Overall pretty below average for non-con. I think it's a transition year for entering the SEC to get a sense of how Texas fares in a new conference.

    Anyone have a link to Sark's press conference from today?

    Slimmer of hope.

    The thing is, we don't need a guy like Vince Young or Michael Vick at QB. Just someone with plus athleticism and the threat of a run will make huge changes to coverages. How many times have we gotten our asses kicked by a moderately athletic QB who runs a couple of times a game? Plenty. Sark doesn't have to run the QB. He just needs to play a QB who CAN run. I know that will get me thrown from the ivory tower around here, but statues aren't going to win in college football. QB's have to be able to run a little. It makes such a huge difference in 3rd down and red zone situations.

    He apparently played QB in HS but is listed at RB. 6-2, 215. Maybe a Wildcat specialist? We don't really have anyone in that role now. Probably not, but it's fun idea.

    ...and the pass was completed because the LB had his eyes on Worthy instead of on his assignment. Worthy is going to have to learn how to handle press coverage better, but they'll probably put him in motion a lot. Not too worried.

    Is it two days in shorts before the pads come on?
  22. syracusehorn
    A whole carton of eggs in the Turntine basket I think.
  23. syracusehorn
    He's going to need a big season to hold off Vasek, Simmons, and Moore.
  24. syracusehorn
    Makes me wanna Jump Jump.

    What scholarship player is going to want to be 8th on the depth chart? Top guys already want to be one of only a couple of guys at a position in any recruiting class. We'll potentially see a doubling of the recruiting class size. Managing this is going to take some very astute reasoning and patience. I don't think it's the cure to anything in college football. Now the NIL budget is going to get watered down by another 20 "scholarship" players. I guess Oregon will probably figure it out first. They sure seem to have everything else dialed in right now.
