  1. We are not getting two RB1’s to play with each other + Cooper and I’m not even sure we should want to pay for that.
  2. Just said the 3 schools main schools mentioned for him were us, OU and OSU
  3. Some connected posters on the Florida On3 board seem to think Texas will be involved and they are upset about losing him
  4. Probably because agents are involved. Although considering how the Goosby family has operated with both Trevor and his brother, I'm assuming they have a good process/representation and aren't just looking for money grabs.
  5. Gerry made an interesting comment on OTF this morning that his Florida sources don't think they will be able to keep both Baugh and Dallas Wilson. Likely only one.
  6. Portal update from IT While anything truly new is hard to come by when it comes to certain portal targets before they actually become portal targets, we’ll do our best to give you the latest. We’ll include a layer of important retention notes as well as a look at what to expect when the portal opens on January 2. Portal WatchAs we’ve mentioned, Texas would be an ideal landing spot for Florida RB Jadan Baugh. Following Jabbar Juluke to Austin wouldn’t surprise a handful of people behind the scenes. At the moment, the new Florida staff doesn’t really know where it stands with Baugh, according to sources. New head coach Jon Sumrall spoke with Baugh and his family last week and came out of the meeting feeling like they made their best pitch. Still, there’s growing sentiment that Texas could ultimately be Baugh’s destination. Juluke was the coach who stood on the table for the Peach State product in Gainesville. There’s a sense the Forty Acres would be Baugh’s top spot if he enters the portal this week. With a handful of bowl games being played over the last few days, don’t be surprised to see several players declare their intentions to enter the portal who would fit Texas quite nicely—most notably at wide receiver and defensive tackle. We’re monitoring a pair of former TXHSFB prospects and former Texas targets, among others. RETENTION EFFORTSTexas still has a few loose ends to tie up before the transfer portal opens on January 2. The two most notable are Trevor Goosby and Ryan Wingo. Both will be playing in the Citrus Bowl on Wednesday while their agents handle the business side of the business. Sources tell Inside Texas that both want nothing more than to return to Austin for a national title run in 2026. Both are viewed in the highest regard by the team and staff. Both are considered priorities and would be difficult to replace, however, the school understands it needs to have back-up plans just in case. There’s some confidence that both situations will be resolved before the surge hits college football in five days—but it’s something we’re still monitoring Monday morning. Moving on: we still cannot rule out a negative surprise as some lower profile, but still-important negotiations are ongoing. Texas should put these little fires out but you just never know. LOOMING CHAOSTo be sure, it’s already a chaotic mess behind the scenes. While Inside Texas remains confident in Texas’ ability to land a great portal haul, a ton of work remains. We don’t get the sense that paperwork is going to start rolling in right as the portal opens and/or players are officially in. Again, nothing can be “done” until the player is officially in the portal on January 2. To our knowledge, there is only one player who seems like he’s for sure heading to Texas. The window from Jan 2-16 is likely to be crazy throughout and beyond. Expect a lot of movement once the portal officially opens, with Inside Texas tracking developments in real time as dominoes begin to fall.
  7. Pass. He was committed here at one point and there was a lot of stuff during his recruitment that raised red flags. He had a decent year this year but how much of that was because of OL/schedule.
  8. On3 National reporter said we have made contact with this guy and are interested
  9. IT We’re still watching retention for Texas. The ball is in Trevor Goosby’s and Ryan Wingo’s court in that regard. Both would love nothing more than to return to Texas—but you know how it goes these days. More on Goosby this morning Re: The Goosby thread. Like we've said, the ball is in Goosby's court on his return to Texas. The Draft is not their preference due to his age and relative lack of experience. If Goosby walks, potentially to the portal, Texas does have a backup plan but it likely won't improve the line while still leaving issues to address on the O-line. This is a "risk on" move. Hopefully he just comes back.
  10. Garrett Wilson couldn’t find any other good pictures besides from his high school prom?
  11. This always seemed like a delicate situation because he had to be our de-facto RB1 the last few years due to injuries and poor decision making outside his control. Now, heading into his senior year, we were going to ask him to, at minimum, be in a 1A/1B type role. Money considerations aside, he probably wants more of a sure situation in his final year.
  12. How did Nic Codie start for this team at one point
  13. It was tiring to hear the 9.95ers rave about him being the first player to practice every day and how he was molding his game after Jordan Whittington when his actions the last two offseasons have been the opposite of anything Whittington would do.
  14. Turns out the NFL doesn't love slot receivers with drop issues and not much make you miss ability.
  15. Joins Casey Thompson on the Mount Rushmore of fakest "team leaders" we've ever had.
  16. Bobby mentioned on YouTube this morning that Reed is asking for a very, very high NIL number for 2026. I'd tell him to kick rocks. There are probably 5 QBs already in the portal I would take over Reed in a heartbeat.
  17. IT We’ve already seen two surprising and, again, decisive moves from Sark. Currently there’s a vacant safeties coach position that Will Muschamp will fill. Probably Travaris T-Rob Robinson. As you know, Chris Jackson does not have a contract for 2026. IT does not expect Jackson to return. If I’m reading this right, Sark is trying to get a bit rougher around the edges, similar to replacing Chad Scott with Jabbar Juluke. One potential replacement we’ve heard is a bit off the radar these days but makes sense from a couple of different angles. We’ve also caught wind of one potential analyst, at least we think it’s for analyst. Like many of these guys—Paul Chryst for example—they’re good enough to be position coaches. Sark was an analyst himself at one point.
  18. If I remember right, Herman basically gifted him to TCU but not having a WR coach for a month only to end up promoting someone who was already on staff.
  19. Both Gerry and CJ Vogel mentioned Malcolm Kelly as a name to watch at WR coach if Chris Jackson ends up departing for the NFL.
  20. Ryan Day when asked a few weeks ago how much time he spends with the defense: “Not much. Not much. Yeah. Matt (Patricia) and I talk here and there just about philosophically what we’re trying to get done, but he’s doing a great job. He’s really the head coach of the defense, organizes it all, and he’s got a great staff with him.”
