  1. TCU doesn't have the clout we do. It's going to be tough for them to pull nationally from the top of the portal. I dont blame Sark for going all out at the top only for guys who are the best. The Michigan guys are starters on a Big 10 team that is known for OL development. They pushed hard for Baugh. They're pushing hard for Coleman. They took their shots at the top and are pivoting to the next level and starting to land targets. They absolutely need to have scouts scour the entirety of college football at every level for talent that's being developed. No matter where it is located. As far the players in the portal, that's happening with every top level program. We had the #1 recruiting class out of HS last year. Those guys were crazy expensive, and with the change to the system this year in rev share you just can't afford to pay the ones that are not developing quick enough what they made last year to sit the bench. All these teams around the country have rev share money and starting jobs to throw at these guys. No one is convincing them to stay without offering up that bump in pay.
  2. That combined with you can't pay people to sit the bench anymore. The top players you need have gotten way too expensive. Teams have to put their resources in those players and a few players like a Justice Terry or Lance Jackson they anticipate developing into top level starters in a year. Everyone else is getting offered peanuts in comparison. The days of paying big money out of HS for anyone not projected to be a major star have to be over. I doubt any mid to high 4 star guy gets offered anywhere near what they have in the past. This is just that transition year where last year's recruits were paid on the old model but this year's portal is working off the new rev share model.
  3. Why? If him insulting the morons made them go away he could have cleaned this place up and made it respectable years ago. Even when he bans a lot of the idiots and deletes access to posting they just pop back up as some new stupid name. He can't get rid of them, they're like some super species of roach.
  4. Work through the mentality of this. What's more likely? That Harris just goes rogue and fucks up meeting after meeting after meeting with, coincidentally, only the players that either didn't produce anything in 2025 or were/are having people brought in from the portal at their position? Or that most of those players in those positions are being offered less money than they made last year and see the team trying to add players from the portal in their positions as recruiting over them? So they are choosing to leave and go elsewhere to both make more money and have a starting job? Gerry said Barnes told him he had 8 different teams contact him with offers to start next season within 30 min of it going public he's in the portal. It doesn't matter if Harris, Sark, Trump, Biden, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, or the fucking Buddha are the ones giving them that news.
  5. Well, then the play may be to start funding the programs of the UT system to be developmental feeder programs. Take all the 2 and 3 stars and the ones that pan out get sent up to the big show. But something they can do right now is to hire a staff of scouts that do nothing but scour college football looking for developed prospects with talent ready to be poached. Or try to money whip a few of Cignetti's scouts
  6. I actually disagree completely. I love this aspect of the portal era. Animosity and hatred get more explosive and the stakes feel even higher. Yep. Sark decided that going all in on Coleman to take the outside spot opposite Wingo was the way to go and Livingstone was told up front that was the plan and he was going to be offered a backup role and backup money for next season. So he bolted, and OU offered starter money and a starter role. Anyone would be pissed and wanting some revenge for the disrespect in his shoes. I dont blame him, and I find it funny that OU thinks Sark's castoffs are the path to a title.
  7. All but the most elite of elite freshmen require at least a full year of development before being of any value to a team contending for a title. I'm saying he's not one of those. He may never develop. But at minimum we know he wasn't an early bloomer. He's behind even the other 3 freshmen we took
  8. We canceled our family one and went to Tidal. Spotify walked it back and said they wont air them. Fuck them for ever doing it at all. Local and state police need to start arresting them.
  9. Totalitarianism. If this isn't defeated with force and harshly punished the country will fall for good and all our lives will be far worse. Our children and grandchildren will have no hope for the future possibility of a good life. Heather Richard talked about every time extremism/fascism has begun to take hold in the US there's been an event that turns white people against it and drives it back to the fringes. Let's hope full view video of a white woman being slaughtered by the fascist republican agents is one of those events. If this doesn't even do it? This country is fucked right here and right now.
  10. Late bloomer. Highly ranked late bloomers don't stay with the team that signed them out of HS anymore. He can trade on his HS grade for a bigger payday than what Texas will offer him. After 1 year he's clearly last out of the 4 they took out of HS last year.
  11. You believe it's just you 2? My sweet summer child...
  12. That's what 95% of redshirt freshmen with talent do. AI lies as badly as SidneyCarton's wife when she tells him she's going to "girl's night"
  13. Miami had two backup corners in the game, one of them a freshman, and Ole Miss didn't even try to attack them one time in that red zone. Stupid decisions lose games
