  1. A recording of AD saying, “Adonai Mitchell - Wide Receiver - University of Texas” several minutes into the Super Bowl >>> Roger Goodell sentencing him to Carolina.

    I think it is going to be important for the staff to not think of the defense statically. There is no Sweat on the roster, a 2 gapping immovable monster. It does have athletic DTs. Savea was solid in Nansen’s defense at Arizona that focused on moving the DL. Barring massive improvement or portal signing, that philosophy is going to fit this DL better. You are not going to see the best of Broughton or Collins, if you are asking them to 2 gap 

    You should write them a letter and staple your business card to it. I think they’ll appreciate your unique perspective.

    We are going to be top 5, and it is really splitting hairs at that level. You are talking about 2 or 3 points difference for entire classes, and some of those classes have 4 or 5 more guys in them. If someone said we finished 5th or 2nd, it all kind of feels the same. Tip of the hat to the staff regardless. 

    I agree, but I’m just saying that a double-digit recruiting ranking for Texas is irresistible troll bait for some of the more-Texas antagonistic national writers out there. We haven’t seen it for a while though - thank God.

    Yea put me in this camp. It’s far superior to services overrating your players as long as it doesn’t get out of control. Given our program trajectory I doubt it even lasts long. 

    I agree with this as long as we stay top 10 in the final rankings to avoid the “noBoDY wAnTs to PLAy fer TEXAS” hit piece headlines.

    I can only hope that Iowa State can give you guys and your CFP hopes a giant kick in the fellas on your way out the door. I've been predicting ISU will win this game since I saw the schedule and I'll stand by that. I could write some long diatribe about my feeling about Texas and the role they played in the destruction of the Big 8/SWC/Big XII, but I won't. I get why you're leaving for the SEC, and If ISU was in a position to move there or to the BIG, we would.

    That said, don't expect and hug and a kiss on the way out. 🤘👇.

    See what I mean. This is the prevailing attitude of ISU fans since becoming “good” at football. 
     

    “We would have made the same choices, but screw you for doing so.” lol

  6. Reasons for negativity:

    -Offensive line couldn’t move Rice

    -Ewer’s deep ball

    -general offensive sloppiness

    -Milroe’s running

    -Sark’s record in road games

    Reasons for optimism:

    -The defense

    -non-deep ball passing game

    -We know this offense can be much better

    -We’ll open up the playbook

    -Milroe’s passing
