    This. Just bought a pair in the Touchdown Club so my wife can sit in the a/c and drink while we watch the game. I'll probably appreciate it too, given the forecast. If the weather is good, I'll buy tickets for future games closer to the 50 and outside.

    Welcome to the thunder-dome. The above is why my season tickets are there.

    You are stupid. This means he's got his shit together and is doing what's right long term for the program. Rushing into NIL is a recipe for disaster. 

    Normally I would agree, but we don't have the luxury to wait and see what comes of NIL and some supposed federal intervention when it comes to recruiting.  Texas should be able to dial it up to bring in recruits now.  If they need to dial it back, shut it down and start over, etc. that shouldn't be too tall a task.

    I mean fuck, the NIL should be a home fucking run for us in recruiting and, at best, right now it's a fucking wash.  At worst, we're being lapped by the Oregon's of the world.  We've got fuck you money.  This is one of those times where we should be saying 'fuck you' to our competition.

    Season ticket holder for over 30 years and I let them go this year because it’s now obvious that the illegal paying of players has gotten so out of hand that schools are left with no choice but to cheat or die.

    Anyone who knows anything about college football saw what happened at Georgia and A&M and realized it’s all just buying wins now. The sport is losing its appeal to me because of it. 

    I bought two more because fuck Herman  and my concerns on the above will disappear when we start winning.

    My dad was born in Port Arthur and worked the refineries before enlisting in the Army Air Corps then going to college. He'd see a "Native Texan" bumper sticker and shake his head.

    Imagine somebody putting that on their car. What kind of achievement is that?

    Maybe they could see into the future and just really like the beer?

    Info always appreciated. 
     

    Ctj or anyone else for that matter, not seeing the distinctions between 2 and 3. Anyone that can expand or clarify?  Is 3 no deals which would mean category 4. If 3 are some deals then what is the difference from 2?

    tia 

    If ctj is implying that OU is clean, I'd be pretty fucking shocked.

    I think he's just stating they avoid the all out bidding wards and make deals to lock up their targets quickly (where 'deals' are necessary).  That seems to be the main difference to me.  If we're going route 2, it appears we'll get into some bidding wars when necessary (with the caveat that the player doesn't sacrifice the locker room culture).

    All of that said, I'm probably wrong with all of the above and you'll never get the time back you took to read this.

    I'm looking forward to the 9/4 kickoff at 3:30. I'll be in loge suite in the SEZ with a fully stocked fridge, under shade, with monitors, and immediate access to free food and booze in an air-conditioned environment. I'll have myself a rye manhattan at kickoff and toast all you poor bastards on the west side, baking in the hot, hot sun.

    There is some downside though, as I envision myself sitting directly above the goalposts and watching things unfold - my own version of Cousin Eddie, in my front yard emptying his RV shitter will be joining me - and by that I mean I'll be seated directly above or below @SydneyCarton. No one can have it all.

    You should sit in front. The stories about Sydney scream spitting Copenhagen long-cut into the back of your freshly bought white coaches polo while Bijan runs for a 30+ yard TD will be classic.

    Not that I'm aware of...care to explain how that is relevant? 

    Well you see.... we're willing to give the benefit of the doubt to one of our current commits so long as a Bama commit is behaving the same way.  However, if one of our players does it without mimicking a Bama player, then our commit is an entitled cancer who should be shown the door.  Especially if a poster claims to have seen said commit behave a certain way at a track meet, not posted about it, but claimed to have posted about it.  I could have missed something but I think that's the stance.

    seriously I’d pull his scholarship. if you don’t think he’s quitting on the horns as soon as he’s put out some decent tape you’re a naive little child. 

    Seriously.  Like that dead beat Vince Young who declared early after putting out some decent tape.  Fucking quitter.

    It is CR. Bipartisan or not.

     

    Page fucking one cites Denver,Portland, and away we go. At TOS this was CR fodder.

    Fuck that.  The city council of Austin has finally united the sides.  It's the only thing they have done right.  Let's have this fight out in the open...the Daily got damn Texan.

    Bubba's dropped the Bison Sirloin Steak Sandwich from their menu. That was a blow. Their bison chili is outstanding. 

    I wouldn't recommend their bison burger. It's too lean. Definitely order a beef burger. 

    Gagree.  After a few samplings, I'm stuck on the beef Vegas burger.

    I feel like it’s been asked somewhere before, but what are some good ones in Houston? Huge fan of Southwells, but I don’t think I’ve had a burger that’s not skinny patties anywhere good in quite a while. 

    Been to Bubba's Burger Shack a few times when I go to Houston for work.  Pretty solid burgers.

    Still wild that we haven’t heard anything leading us to a single candidate yet...still feel like it’s Arnett because who the fuck else could it be logically

    Either way, wouldn’t be surprised if we have a massive mole hunt going on in conjunction with the search.  FCB’s leads seem to have dried up. Wonder if Chang and others got caught up in it.

     

    But ya. Arnett seems like the logical choice but we got no clue. I like the way Sark and the admin are playing this.
