  1. Just be careful not to get into a fight. I'm guessing you haven't been training at the same altitude as Temple, Texas.
  2. Wonder if the pattern of terrible OL play leading to repeated QB injuries makes Conner and/or his family rethink moving baseball up his priority list.
  3. And that's why he is the assistant supply manager. Assistant to the supply manager
  4. Payton Kirkland kind of came out of nowhere a few days before announcing for us. Not a 5 star, but still very highly regarded at the time and a surprise in our favor. Never even visited campus before committing if I recall. But yeah, these typically don't seem to go our way.
  5. Yeah, it seems clear to me that he ends up at Arkansas. The G League visit is just optics on his part. He could have visited them at any point before Texas had released him from his NLI.
  6. Yeah Wasserman isn't great. But this note was so specific it had to be from someone on the ground witnessing it first hand so definitely a positive in our favor. Long time to go, but explains why several analysts think we currently lead.
  7. This writeup was from Manny Navarro. I'm not following him or anything but the story was listed under the "More for you" section of my feed so guessing since I typically read most recruiting related stories it showed up for me.
  8. The Athletic has a note today about the IMG Academy's Under Armour camp. Apparently Jerrick Gibson's dad is recruiting for Texas and was urging Oklahoma native and 5-star defensive lineman David Stone to give Texas some strong consideration.
  9. I'm Shocked that Petrino is leaving UNLV high and dry. He's usually so loyal and honest.
  10. Would love to get another year from Whittington, but I just have a feeling he's gone. Agents always sell these kids that they'll go 2-3 rounds higher than the draft grade says because it only takes one team to like them, and the agent has a contact with such and such team and they're telling me that if you're available in the 3rd round, they'd take you in a heartbeat....blah blah blah.
  11. This. But also, these top draft picks get a ton of endorsements in the NFL as well. It's not an either/or thing where it's a one for one swap of NIL money vs Salary. Trevor Lawrence makes an estimated $3MM per year in endorsements in addition to his salary.
  12. Another: Will Texas offensive line be really good for the first time in forever when Arch sees the field for meaningful snaps in 3 years? Let's not underestimate how big of an impact that had in things. For the first time in forever, it feels like luck has been on our side a bit. Cistobal leaving really helped turn the tide on our OL class last year. But credit to Flood for not quitting either. Hand would have been touring all the BBQ restaurants nearby for 8 months and then last minute offer some out of state 2 stars to fill out the roster.
  13. Wonder if Mario Williams told Addison to check out the the baseball facilities while he's here just for giggles. Hope I'm wrong, but this sure seems like Addison's camp trying to make it seem like there wasn't already an agreement in place with USC. Only hope is if Marion can sell coaching him up into a high first rounder rather than a late first or early 2nd. That difference can turn out to be way more than whatever the USC NIL offer could be.
  14. Love bringing in kids like Hall and Billingsley this off-season. Sometimes if a kid is a little bit lazy or immature in his freshman season, that can be turned around. They are so used to dominating just on natural talent alone, and they haven't ever had to work that hard for it, focus on fundamentals, or run crisp routes. I'm not one to fully believe practice reports, but Sanders sure seems to be turning heads so far this offseason. I think he ran into this very issue (Along with not wanting to block apparently). But a big part of coaching is motivating and getting the most out of your players. Giving guys like Marion and Banks ultra talented kids who need to be pushed and motivated isn't the worst thing in the world. Billingsley had success with Banks coaching him in the past, so maybe he knows what buttons to push. Plus I think Billingsley being here has had to have pushed Sanders a bit as well. Bottom line is we need more competition in every room on campus at this point.
