Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi! Eloi, lama sabachthani!
He wasn't, but everyone is negotiating right now. I saw here the narrative from the resident bullshit artist that the ignorant are eating up as truth is that Brandon Harris completely fucked up the Barnes negotiation and others. But then explain how he isn't fucking up the negotiations for the DL? There's beg no peep out of Terry, Sharma, Charles, Jackson, etc. Why is that? Could it be because those are the guys Sark wasn't looking to replace in the portal? So those negotiations got sewn up quickly with no problem? And with a guy like Barnes, Sark was actually trying to push out and give his money to Alliegro and the Cal LB? That just seems to make the most sense. I have no idea if Harris is fucking anything up or not, but everything that happens seems to suggest Harris is nothing more than Sark's mouthpiece and errand boy. I would need some solid evidence Harris says it's does anything differently from what Sark tells him to do, and the word of proven liars here don't count. Sark got caught with his pants down on just how difficult it was going to be to win these recruitments and the staff is struggling to fix some stupid mistakes with guys like Barnes.

I see smaller HS classes and exactly what you just said. Then really put your chips down in the portal for guys other programs paid to develop. I think it's obvious Sark did not anticipate the portal changes that have happened this year and he's scrambling at certain positions now. Especially at QB. Why pay millions for a freshman when you can pay peanuts for a developmental freshman and pay millions for an already developed starter. Every team left in the playoffs now has that exact situation, right?

Can't feel good. HS players are going to start getting offered a ton less money across the board going forward. Unless they're Colin Simmons/Jeremiah Smith level. It makes no sense for any big program to sink so much money into freshmen who won't play except special teams then get pissed and bolt. If they're going to keep this portal stuff as is I would like to see them make 1 change. Make it where the portal window is the final cut day for everyone. Meaning if you enter the portal you must be signed with a program by the portal end date or you're ineligible for the following season.

Trump/MAGA has ruined sports
This is a touchy subject at the moment, but what do you think of the Shipley situation? I would rather he recovers, but knowing he and his family are big magas and support the death and destruction of people who aren't like them makes me not give too much of a shit. And the incessant religious nonsense his family throws out in every update on that thread made me just step away from reading it. I understand it's a crutch that these types of people lean on but damn, say it once and move on. It rings so hollow knowing the atrocities these people support. A decade ago I'd be all in this guy's corner, religious dumbassery aside. Another example for me of trump showing me who some of my fellow Americans/Texans/Longhorns truly are. Such a shame.

I like how the completely unregulated transfer portal madness is ruining college football. I guess a complete lack of a legitimate governmental body regulation of some kind is a disaster no matter the scenario. Ron Paul was a complete moron.

I figured that was one that might go this direction. He actually showed out as a true freshman against Michigan. He's in line to play a ton next season even with a LB or 2 being brought in. He seems like a prototype LB for Muschamp with his size and ability to move. Bet he walks back in soon. Virtually no staffs around the country are managing fine. Most of them are having to put everything in just to keep the players they already had. Almost no one is actually gaining yet.

Might want to start working on that "getting" part. They're not quite doing that one correctly. Sark is gone. If not within the next few weeks to the NFL it will be as soon as the season ends next fall. College football is a disaster. "NCAA Libertarianism" has been a disaster. Allowing the players to factor into the profits was needed, but all out madness with zero governmental body regulation leads to this pile of shit. Very few if any coaches want to deal with this, so the ones with legit NFL interest like Sark will bolt soon. You would think this has to severely harm player development at this level too. These players arent staying in one place long enough to properly develop.

About time to get grok to make a picture of Sark holding a giant platter of bread. If he doesn't start getting offensive players locked up in the next day or 2.

If we wanted a more experienced version of that guy we would have just paid Lefau to stay

Yes. He is not coming to Texas for the reasons I talked about.

Meh. I check in here throughout the year and it's terrible quality no matter the time of year. Just a lot more to talk about right now than in May

Maybe a new OL coach wouldn't be so hung up on size to the detriment of if a guy can actually play the position. Flood recruits line like he's going to just go out and gap scheme the shit out of everyone like it's1990s Nebraska, but then the season starts and Sark starts calling a lot of zone runs. And the large line gets run around in pass pro like traffic cones. There's a massive disconnect and I don't understand why it wasn't addressed. I feel the line issues could have already been remedied in the portal if Sark actually had an OL coach who was going to adapt to what Sark does on offense.
