  1. And in some cases, it’s an underwhelming set of offers and helobious’s steady hand to straighten one out.
  2. I'm pretty sure that's the salacious pics of all his page-boy interns. Yeah, we should make sure to pay a DT who averaged 1.5 tackles and .1 sacks per game over 3 years and 24 games for Purdue, just because your fee fees can't handle losing him to SMU.
  3. Lol, Venables buyout is 45 million, and they just double downed on him. He's not gonig anywhere.
  4. I'd stop at "Field" and not worry about the "semi-competitive" part.
  5. It's real: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syrian_Captagon_industry Syria is the main manufacturer of a drug called Captagon, which really only gets distributued in the middle east. No one in America had really heard of it until the fall of Assad's regime unless they were extremely well travelled in the middle east. Apparently it's been the main source of the country's revenue for quite awhile.
  6. By all accounts, Sark is laser focused on winning. If he's drinking, and heavily, he's basically down to doing it inside his panic room at his house and for 45 min a night of pure binge right before his ambien kicks in...
  7. I wouldn't be surprised to see OU alums turn to land grabbing the captagon market from the vacuum left by Syria to prop up the football team.
  8. Yup. The only want regulations because they're willing to skirt them.
  9. "Their AD is the best the world has ever seen, but Sark isn't that great of a coach" isn't quite the insult they seem to think it is...
  10. A salary cap won't change a single fucking thing. There already is going to be one, in the form of 20 million from AD funds that go to play players across all sports, at the discretion of the AD, of course with Title IX considerations. I don't t think the OU AD can spare the 20 million from operations, but technically the cap is the cap. Nothing fucking changes until they find a way to regulate private, 3rd party endorsements, and that's such an ass-kicking impossibility waiting to happen I don't think anyone even wants to bother trying to take it to the courts for another pride-obliterating bitch-slap. Removing 3rd party endorsement opportunities is basically overturning NIL. Good fucking luck. Want to try and regulate collectives...good fucking luck. But even if they did, we'll figure out another way around this fucking nonsense.
  11. If true, it's going to become apparent sooner rather than later. The real question to ask might be, even if it's true, if NC has built the proper kind of infrastructure to immediately handle that kind of thing.
  12. So, I mean, why don't ya' read?
  13. LSU 3, ATM 5, and Michigan 6. Oklahoma at 10. GTFO
  14. I know that whenever I hear someone go out of their way to tell me just how straight they are, they're absolutely, never ever overcompensating or trying to misdirect people. That being said, I've never seen someone follow up in the next sentence by "offering to do more than just give out handjobs." The ole' "I'm straighter than the equator, but I could suck the chrome off a trailer hitch and spit it back on as a disco ball" dynamic, eh? If you want to throw in some mouth work or even spread your cheeks for some truly talented roster beef, no one here is going to stop you. We're going to fucking cheer you on, man. You're the absolutely-no-joke-super-straight-handjob-hero we need right now. God bless.
  15. This feels like revisionist history. I don't remember any of those guys being flagged as "big risks" whatsoever when they came out. Some folks weren't as high on Ross becuase of concerns, but "big risk" seems like a stretch. Everyone assumed a kid on a college S&C and nutrition program would be able to gain 20-25 pounds on a college nutrition and S&C program. Instead the fucking guy came in and lost 10. I feel like that's a pretty rare occurrence. Mitchell was coveted by everyone at the time, including GA, and he was a big win. Yes, he was a big body, but everyone was high on that guy, and he still has great qualities. His problem is his head. I don't remember ANY large segment of guys saying he was a Finch from wildcats style fatbody who would never amount to anything. This shit is what's happening in retrospect. I don't really remember any of Bryant's recruitment either way. Odd that no one is mentioning Jaray Beldooe here, who basically enrolled academically by the skin of his teeth, and succesfully doing that was a shock to many. People threw around terms like "learning disability" at the time, yet we never hear that mentioned as part of his bust factor.
  16. I think there's a non zero chance that some cleaning might come on it's own. Nothing insider here. I don't see Arch's boy leaving, but Spencer Shannon could be a casualty.
  17. So just postulating here... But if Texas signs a pretty good DL haul from the portal, it pretty much has to be taken as fact that it's because Helobious really fucking knows his way around other men's shafts, right? Like a once in a generation dong director kind of skillset. A real boss of the hog. A succesful portal outcome makes this fait accompli. Or his skillset makes a succesful portal outcome fait accompli, however you guys like to view it.
  18. So you're saying I should feel good about this investment?
  19. Yes. Who on here would have imagined you’d go for bland, white female pop stars? It’s a stereotype no one would have imagined and your protestations are now in no way etching it into permanence. Let’s get this thread back on track, Tex:
  20. As amazing as this is, Jesus these people are our neighbors. That’s terrifying. That guy just made up shit from whole cloth, and the rest of his bullshit is just his own bad opinions parading as fact. And calling them “opinions” is a pretty big stretch to the legitimacy of the word. Sark isn’t a program builder because he never won 8 games before he got here guys. Don’t tell them about Nick Saban at Michigan State.
  21. I’m now of the belief that Hayes Fawcett is the Mr Hyde to Texifornia’s Dr. Jekyl. They’re the same person. Hayes appears after Tex consumes a Mt. Dew Code Red. Tex returns when he hears a snippet of Sabrina Carpenter. First, this explains a lot. Second, it sounds like you’re the one trying to solve a problem here. Which, cool. But I don’t think this group would stop at a finger for a finger. “Asian woman mauled by pack of cargo-short wearing social misfits” is a hell of a headline.
  22. Coin Operated businesses, or a Self-Serve Car Wash are popular real-estate investments, particularly for people betting on the appreciation of the real-estate. I've seen some of those for sale over the years, and bring in like 20-30k a year. Or lots used for paid public parking. It wouldn't be surly is someone didn't mention an Eskimo Hutt franchise.
