  1. 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.
  2. Bragging about convincing a recruit to decommit isn't the flex that you think it is.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Anyone have a link to Sark's press conference from today?
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. ...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.
  10. Is it two days in shorts before the pads come on?
  11. A whole carton of eggs in the Turntine basket I think.
  12. He's going to need a big season to hold off Vasek, Simmons, and Moore.
  13. Makes me wanna Jump Jump.
  14. 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.
  15. I'd much rather celebrate Texas than obsess about our opponents. Let's all agree to do that instead.
  16. I'm stunned. I'm pissed. It's Gotch Yarbrough.
  17. We need some mo-mentum. Yesterday’s commit was a real difference maker. Hopefully we have a few more in that echelon.
  18. TA Smith at 220 wow Sydir down a little to 350.
  19. So excited about Bolden. I love that first in-motion to jailbreak screen play. That's a great wrinkle for our screen game. His balance after contact is pretty remarkable too, given his size. Great agility. He's great in motion, but I'm telling you, if he's the "forgotten guy" in a formation, he can embarrass whoever is defending him 1v1. Put Blue in motion to draw attention one direction, and then throw back to Bolden. That could be a big play. It doesn't take him long to get separation. He won't run over anyone, but he can find spaces anywhere and has great hands. He's going to be a big piece of the puzzle this year.
  20. 3 in the same year: UCLA, UAB, USF 3 Big teams for different years: Notre Dame, FSU, Oregon,
  21. So he's going to cover kickoffs? Should be something to see.
  22. Y'all take these "Hi's" way too seriously. It's not a contract. Relax and enjoy your weekend.
