    I hope Sark’s sit downs with players aren’t too specific and definitive. Shit happens all the time and telling a third string or second string guy he’s going be that isn’t an ideal approach. I assume most of these portal guys just see the writing on the wall and aren’t being over influenced by bad news in a sit down. There’s honesty and integrity, but then there’s also too much information. I hope it’s not the latter. 

    There's a "dude we've got X amount of NIL dollars, and we're not going to spend them on you" come to Jesus moment for all of the backups.

    Carter Karels with the paradoxical position:

    Carter Karels

    "The Bryce Foster conversation has always been a little uncomfortable. He had so much promise early, but he did not show enough commitment to football and fell off a cliff as a player. I don't see him being good anywhere else, unless he goes the Group of Five route/completely changes his mindset. Anyway, think we need to move on and give him a little grace. Sometimes, things just don't work out."

    Strong work. I don't know if Karels is actually an aggie, but he disguises well as one if he isn't.

    Oh he is: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carter-karels-7a0536135/

    Quick detour but I would think Chico State kids would go to Lake Oroville. It is basically right next to Chico and while not pretty, it is much warmer than Tahoe. I used to live in the Bay Area and I don't recall seeing many people actually get in the water in Tahoe. A few people would take quick dips while laying out at the beach and a few boaters and paddle boarders would be on the water but mainly the lake seemed pretty open, especially compared to all the Texas lakes.

    You are correct, my phrasing was bad. Most of the counselors either went to UNR or Chico. Of the UNR ones, most went to Tahoe on the weekends.

    Exactly. HTown kid coming off of winning at the highest level previously. The Texans needed something to get people excited, but chose Mario fucking Williams instead. 

    I know he wasn't going to have some Tom Brady esque career playing under Jeff fucking Fisher. 

    Just admit you wanted to keep cheering for the Cowboys. It's ok, no one else cares.

    young people do not like the same thing old people like

    I can confirm young people do like hanging out on boats and and at ski towns with sorority girls at Lake Tahoe (and much like our football players and Lake Travis the boosters will make sure they have access to them)

    45 minutes from Tahoe sounds a lot better than fucking Reno.

    Hah, seriously, but my camp counselors growing up were usually UNR (or Chico State) students and they definitely tried to hit the lake most weekends.
