    Texas needs to make sure that we don’t spend too much time trying to figure out the nuances of the situation while our friends in B/CS, Oxford, Eugene, Baton Rouge, Norman… are acting. Say what you want, but a large part of the massive recruiting success of that ‘22 Aggy class was because they were ready to go and taking an active approach while Texas was still talking to lawyers and trying to figure out how they wanted to do things. The horse is so far out of the barn now that doing anything less than a full frontal assault is really putting yourself at a disadvantage versus the rest of the field.

    Burke at #11? I thought he was a great take when Texas picked him up late, and I think he’s coming along, but he’s going to have to take a massive step forward to become the #11 pick in next year’s draft. I hope it happens, but that’s quite a projection.

    Thanks Bobby, this is a seriously underrated post. Texas Athletics is a large business and much more than just the head man and coaches. It takes a multitude of people to facilitate the success that CDC has been able to enable at Texas.

    Technically the only part of that that goes directly to the players is tuition, books, food, and lodging. Not a dime of the NIL money comes from that haul. Pretty amazing. And why it’s just a matter of time before the players start getting a cut.

    I think having players viewed as employees is a big step towards the future CFB stratification. The SEC/BIG need the players to unionize so that there is someone to negotiate with to create ground rules for how the new world order will operate. Without that my concern is that the SEC/BIG ends up playing whack-a-mole (N.C.A.A. 2.0) as they try to balance (outline?) their interests with those of the media and players.

    Amazing to me that our Houston recruiting is behind Cen-Tex and essentially equal to Cali and Fla. If there’s one region that I think Sark could improve it’s definitely Houston. Can’t complain about the overall results though.

    I understand that the ship has sailed on Foster (Baylor DL commit) but hadn’t heard if he was sticking with Baylor or signing somewhere else.

    The Bjork effect

    That is really good stuff. It would be interesting to compare Watts’ stats versus current NFL players at CB, NB, and S to see where he might fit best based on those tested physical traits.

    I don’t think the NCAA is going away, but big time football is going to change forever. There are too many schools (1,000+) and too many non-revenue sports that will continue to compete at some level. The NCAA is really a victim (not in a sympathetic way) of having a membership that’s extremely diverse and they’ve failed to react to that quickly enough as the money for big time football and NIL has changed the landscape. I look forward to the future 48 or 64 team premier league. I’m tired of meaningless bowl games that no one attends and even fewer people watch. 100% free agency is upon us and it’s up to the premier league and a players group to determine how to regulate transfers, NIL, player contracts, etc. The current situation is a mess.

    I wonder how much more he “spent” outside of NIL to secure that ‘22 class
