  3. Had a blast at the game. Fuck aggy and happy the maroon around me got to swallow that loss leaving the game. 🤘🏼 The drone show after was cool and it was hilarious to see the players sing The Eyes then sit on the field like little leaguers watching fireworks. Saw Chin Pubes there but didn’t get a chance to thank him for all the comedy gold over the years. Pooooooooor…🤘🏼 Special shout out to @Fletch🤘🏼Let’s sweep these hoes.

  4. There's going to be a time, years from now, where everyone is going to pretend that they were against this administration. We're not going to forget.

  6. "When a kid puts on the University of Texas uniform, we tell him that he's just naturally expected to believe in himself. You hear guys who went to another school in our conference—A&M, Baylor or somewhere—talk for 20 minutes on why they didn't want to go to Texas. But you'll never hear a Longhorn bother to explain why he didn't go to another school." -- DKR Still holds true today.

  10. Mackovic dipped his toes in recruiting other areas. Well, his assistants did, in any case. Ricky Williams case in point. Eric Metcalf recruited us as much as the other way around. But we've never really flexed as a national recruiting power the way other schools do because of the perception we didn't have to. There was also the fact high school coaches ran recruiting in the old days in many ways. You had to stay on their good side or you weren't going to have much of a chance with their players. A good way to piss off that fraternity was to bring in a bunch of out of state players. Everything is so transactional now. Not just NIL, although that's obviously a critical part of it. But high school coaches have seen their influence diminished by trainers, 7 on 7 programs, and other 3rd parties even before agents got involved. One of the big reasons why Texas was so fiercely opposed to A&M heading to the SEC is that as an institution Texas spent decades trying to keep the SEC out of Texas as a prominent presence. But once A&M broke that seal the floodgates were opened. We'll never go back to the days of instate schools dominating Texas recruiting. At the end of the day Texas and the coaching staff at UT do not owe their loyalty to high school coaches. Their priority is to build the best roster they can. There are going to be years where different positions of need are going to have a weak in state class. I love the idea that Sark and company have created enough in roads in hotbeds outside the borders that they can go get the best regardless of geography. There was a feeling that in the 2000s Mack Brown had an opportunity to do the same thing. The brand after 2005 had never been hotter. Vince in football, TJ Ford and especially Durant in basketball. Baseball winning a national championship. Instead he sat on his laurels and allowed Saban to take the recruiting momentum away from him while he acquired a lot of summer camp bread to build recruiting momentum, and ended up with very average classes that were overrated because the commits had "Texas" next to their name. This is honestly the best I've felt about the program in my lifetime. I was too young for the glory wishbone era. But I remember the 70s, and all the decades since. This is the best shape the program has ever been in during that time in terms of long term sustained success. It feels like this is the way it always was supposed to be, and we even got a little glimmer in the mid 2000s. But that was a mirage, and I knew it at the time. This feels good, man.

  18. From Bobby today, below. His Butler comment is only the kind of thing he’s going to post when a coach is asking him to do so, IMO. **** Time for some news and notes (a lot of it on the freshmen): - KJ Lacey continues to look the part of a future starter at the D-I level. Lacey has a good presence, delivers the ball on time and has some escapability to him. He does not have the arm strength of Arch Manning or Trey Owens, but he has some wily-ness that makes him difficult to defend at times. - James Simon is ahead of Ricky Stewart of the two freshman RBs. Christian Clark is still running third team behind Tre Wisner and Jerrick Gibson. Some are saying Gibson’s body is leaning out some this spring, which is giving him a little more bounce in his step. - Parker Livingstone is the team’s go-to receiver currently. The clear no. 2 is Daylan McCutcheon. McCutcheon continues to be well ahead of the three other freshmen, as Jamie Ffrench, Kaliq Lockett and Michael Terry get accustomed to the intricacies of a pro-style offense. None of those guys played in offenses as sophisticated as McCutcheon did in high school. Aaron Butler is not a factor at the position. - Nick Brooks continues to receive high praise. The words “first-round pick” get used by a lot of folks when describing him. Brandon Baker, I am told, also seems to be taking a real step forward in the last couple of weeks. - Justus Terry and Lance Jackson are both receiving a lot of early praise. Terry is working primarily at strong-side end currently. Cole Brevard and Alex January appear to be a step ahead of their cohorts on the interior. Both Josiah Sharma and Myron Charles are showing real glimpses of why Texas liked them so much in recruiting. - Perhaps the surprise of the second half of spring camp? Linebacker Brad Spence. - Derrick Williams is still not all the way back. And he is only repping at safety. Jelani McDonald continues to improve. - Kobe Black has reportedly had a good spring, enough so that Texas is unlikely to look in the portal for experienced depth at corner. Kade Phillips has also shown some real value there early in his career. - Graceson Littleton may be the biggest surprise of the defensive freshman. The Tampa native is a future player for the Horns. He is giving Wardell Mack a real run at nickel.

  19. I know we only beat them by 1 run in each of the games, but can we talk about how unfair it was that they got to bat 9 innings in each of the game, but we only got to bat 8!?

  20. And just like that, their opponent record got a little better and ours got a little worse. Conspiracy.

  23. Starting this before some witless rube attempts a thread. Also, the first roster change for this thread will be a grad transfer WR that people nut themselves over. So I hope. About the WR part. Not the nutting stuff.
