  1. Criticizing Sark’s answer in that presser, or anything he said in that press conference, is certainly a choice. Everything he said there made sense and was rational. He didn’t say they were fielding calls willy nilly and didn’t have a process and a plan in place. In fact, if you watch the whole presser, he laid it out. You’re starting to sound desperate, like trying to fit some narrative that you’re already dug in on.
  2. I don’t think they have an issue paying what Tre Wisner was asking for. They just weren’t going to pay it to Tre Wisner.
  3. As much as I love Tre Wisner and what he did at Texas, he did not "hold all the cards." There are multiple advanced stats out there showing he was one of the worst starting RB's in the SEC. In no way do you let yourself be held hostage by a guy like that - his performances against ou and aggy notwithstanding. I am 100% confident that Texas will bring someone in at RB who can, at worst, match what Wisner did this year.
  4. I'm convinced texags doesn't hate UT football as much as some posters here.
  5. I don't know about this cycle, although I doubt anything has changed, but Sarkisian absolutely deals directly with agents. He doesn't do it exclusively, but he's very involved. He's also very involved with working with the money side. It's almost like the program can go into the shitter when a head coach that hands on and that involved with all aspects of the program keeps over-indulging in everything a major urban area has to offer and then has to spend a key block of time somewhere out of pocket to pull his shit back together on the health and female side of his life. If anyone is actually looking for legitimate reasons for optimism this time around, it's that Sarkisian is apparently fully locked in again and is making moves accordingly. Maybe he'll even make Junior Day and be present for OVs from key transfer targets. This could be awesome! The beautiful thing about watching someone subject themselves to the open market of a competitive workforce is that we're all going to find out their actual worth. If he gets $1M from someone, cool, hope it was all worth it for him torching his relationship with Texas on the way out. You can dispute that, but he'll be persona non grata to the alumni base and likely the AD, and he made that choice because he listened to the wrong people, set unrealistic expectations, and got his feelings hurt. Not showing up or telling the staff of his plans and then announcing he was out was a super smart move. You keep alluding to the human side of all of this, but that is some of the fan calculus that has changed, as it should. The illusion that these guys play for a school because of some love for its story and tradition and to get a proper education, whatever vestiges of that still existed before pay for play, it's all now gone. Little kids, non-obsessive fans, and idealists like you will still get wrapped up in the whole "but he's a great person too!" side of it, but no one should expect to find it on a fan site. This dude is a man. Not a kid. A man in his 20's, making more money than damned near any other man his age on the fucking planet. No one gives a shit about his wittle feels getting hurt. He can go rub his numerous rope chains and then weigh them on his jewelry scale to make himself feel better. And then he can go be average somewhere else, likely disappointing any program idiotic enough to pay him RB1 P4 money. He had a great offer at Texas and he could have been a key part in a big year. Texas will have plenty of money every year, but what do you mean by "extra"? Texas just had one of the top 3 payrolls in the country. That's likely true again in 2026. What the fuck do you want beyond that? Also, how much will you help bring in to top it off? This guy is a player. I'd love to see Texas sign him. I doubt he costs anywhere close to whatever Coleman gets out of ATM or OU.

    Agreed. seatbelts, DUI laws, kid's bike helmets, fluoride, bidets, speed limits, ban on tobacco advertising, labor laws, etc. are all woke af.
  7. I didn't actually have any problem with his answer. He's addressing an issue with college football today that there is no control over who are agents and the issues it causes. I don't think Sark is open fielding calls from agents....but the same thing happens in the NFL when a players agent as for a unrealistic number from a team. Maybe I'm missing something there, but UT has no control over what an agent is going to ask for when talking to them about a player???

    When I hear someone way “ woke” i immediately assume they are triggered and cant formulate a cogent talking point. So far my theory is 100%

    Or, an understanding of history and its subsequent effect on current day. I always have this loaded up for whenever a stupid (my dad or his buddies) start berating woke. Being from oklahoma, there is an inexplicable soft spot for the plight of native americans amongst the most ardent right wingers. The set up: The cherokee were one of the five “civilized “ tribes as I learned in oklahoma history. They took the US to the supreme court to prevent their land from being taken. The cherokee won their case in the supreme court. Then andrew jackson sent the us military to force the cherokee to walk from south carolina, traverse the mississippi river, and walk to oklahoma along what is now known as the trail of tears. Many died along the way. I then pose the question: do you believe that the cherokee were put in a disadvantageous position? The answer is always a “well.. yeah” My response: “congratulations! You’re woke!” With a big motherfucking smile.
  11. Imma’s a good dude and great site owner, but his football takes have always been Helobious-esque. The last two pages are particularly bad, I’ll give you that.

  13. This guy claims on the website that he was an all American running back at Virginia tech. Having never heard of him, I looked up his stats and apparently he had 16 carries for 97 yards over his 2 seasons there. If you're dumb enough to be represented by a group that puts such easily disproven facts on the public website, well that's on you.
  14. Portal nugget: SEC defender one to watch for Texas Hank South (247 Sports) Portal nugget: SEC defender one to watch for Texas Portal nugget: SEC defender one to watch for Texas Hank South (247 Sports) Auburn linebacker Robert Woodyard is expected to enter the transfer portal when it opens on Jan. 2 as reported on Christmas Eve. The Mobile, Ala. native started 11 games for the Tigers in 2025, amassing 67 tackles, including 7 tackles for a loss and 2 sacks. In all, Woodyard has played in 29 games across his career on the Plains. The veteran linebacker was the top-rated player on the Tigers' defense all season, according to Pro Football Focus, registering an 80.1 score. Woodyard particularly excelled in run defense, scoring an 88.4. Texas is losing three starting linebackers this offseason -- Anthony Hill Jr., Liona Lefau, and Trey Moore. While Texas has players waiting in the wings, like Ty'Anthony Smith, Brad Spence, Bo Barnes, and incoming five-star linebacker Tyler Atkinson, the position is a need in the portal as UT hasn't signed big classes at the position in recent cycles. A source close to Woodyard's camp told Horns247 on Tuesday that Texas is going to be a program Woodyard considers "due to the relationships." One of those relationships is Woodyard's former high school coach at Williamson, Antonio Coleman, having played for new Texas defensive coordinator Will Muschamp at Auburn. (Not to be confused with the 2025 recruit Antonio Coleman that signed with Auburn) The 6-foot, 245-pound Woodyard ranks as the No. 5 linebacker and the No. 71 overall player in the transfer portal. So far, the Longhorns have seen 13 players from this year's team announce intentions to hit the transfer portal. Of course, just because a player goes in the portal, doesn't always mean they can't return to the team. That's not to say any of the 13 are considering a return or are all wanted back, but we have seen it happen before (Juan Davis).

    Traditional to who? This is your problem, you’re trying to tell people what they should value. That’s the antithesis of being American.

  19. I think it's pretty clear that agency is comprised of a bunch of kids. Their most credible and experienced, for example.. seems about as buttoned up as this guy.
  20. There are memes!? Oh fuck, I didn't realize. Does CDC know about these memes? Should we escalate this straight to Abbott?? First a completely embarrassing performance from Sark in a nationally televised Cheeze-It bowl press conference, and now memes. I'm going to call in sick today, this sucks.
  21. Was waiting for the “I’m too cool to care about sports” post on a sports message board. You sound like a loser. I cried for 45 minutes when Aaliyah Chavez signed with OU instead of us. If you’re going to care about something, be all in. No one successful got there being half-assed.

  23. We get it, you're taking up for your friend instead of looking at this rationally from Texas's perspective. Being frank, your friend and the entire Lionhart agency come off looking like a fucking joke.
  24. What excuse? He was asked about dealing with agents in the portal era and he answered it?
  25. My son & DIL are sitting in our usual seats that we have reserved since 1993. Mrs. Brat & I last attended a game there in 2019.
  26. I'm about to run the grocery store to pick up items so mdleast and I can create a stupid menu of snacks that involve Cheez-Its. You can lament the death of bowls or you can enjoy them for what they are now. I chose the latter.
  27. Aside from deducing that it's too much based on the coaches telling him to fuck off with that ask?
  28. Sark’s shot at Wisner’s “agent” was pretty good. Wisner trusting a 20-something lawyer with no experience is bizarre.
  29. All American, but yeah super got exposed. Lmao. This is a horrific answer. The fact that as an organization expectations aren't being set and they are just open Fielding shit is fucking crazy to me. What the actual fuck does Brandon Harris do all god damned day?
