  1. The resources available to this athletic department to have done ANYTHING on the NIL front are too many.
  2. Same. 3-cone. Figured that's what "L" was, but good to know for sure. Thanks.
  3. Dammit. Was going for a joke because they were cut off in the tweet preview. They're there on the actual tweet. I failed.
  4. Can't disagree with that. I mean, I get it that they were working on the SEC deal, but you're fucking Texas: put some people on the shit like a year ago and let them work. That would be much better than the alternative we're dealing with now. Saw you say Spring 2022 as the soonest we'd have the NIL shit fixed. I know there's a lot involved in it, but if they can't put a group together to get something halfway respectable up and going before then, then we're really fucked on that front, and even further behind.
  5. You know just as much if not more than most that it's a combination of things that are taken into consideration. Texas doesn't have a lot of those on their side right now, but a clear indicator that they will be playing in the SEC sooner rather than later would be huge. Technically our recruiting is unfazed at the moment as well (unless you count Brown), as all the vagina ringing going on in this 2022 thread since the SEC announcement has been based solely on predicting the worse off the words of 995ers and the over-analyzing of tweets by 17 year olds instead of off of actual results. Hell, people were jumping off of buildings at the loss of a Derrick Brown to Baylor. BAYLOR! You fear mongering assholes actually bought into all of that shit, only to have Brown come and crash your rag party when he verb'd to the good fellas. Not that I believe that everything will go great/as planned in the upcoming months, but let's not act like Oklahoma's just been killing it since the SEC announcement with the one commit they've gotten since (3* DL) and their "picking up ground" on a whole other year outside of this thread. Outside of rumors and predictions, it's kinda stale. Anderson will be more movement.
  6. We've been here. We know that shit. I think the staff knew that coming in, that being Texas will only get you so far with higher end recruits. We've always known an improvement on the field is what was going to turn things around (along with the development of a worthy bag program). Now throw it in the pot with the NIL, and IMO the added benefit of going to the SEC. It's an interesting mix. Remember, we flipped one of the biggest recruits of the past few years at Texas in October, because of what was going on on the field. Unfortunately, it was the other way. That fact that there are always committed fence riders ready to jump, coupled with possible positive NIL movement before December/January is why I'm not going to freak out about missing out on close guys right now. But I might bitch a little bit.
  7. he asks, after using "grown adults" together in a sentence.
  8. Yah, like y'all tried to get my vagina all in a fuss over Derrick Brown a couple of days back. Nah, I'm gunna relax for one of these.
  9. You said it: it seems to be all about money, because it is. His iron isn't going to get any hotter than it is right now. Once you understand that, it all makes sense.
  10. This is probably accurate. This move is less of "I'm going to leave HS early so I can try to cash in on this NIL stuff," and more "I'm going to leave HS early because I already have a lot of big $ deals lined up that I can't capitalize on until I'm at fOSU.
  11. Where did that come from? Got a link?
  12. Ugh You Don't Wanna Talk About Covid but You Just Said A Thing About Covid talk not going away
  13. The 5* receiver who just de-committed from fuckOSU must not have heard the Evers news yet.
  14. Yah man. I'm not gunna say Blackcat didn't have that discussion, but I'll also say that I was coached by a few, and have met a few HS coaches who had some idiot assed opinions of what was going on around their teams. Like any other profession, not everyone in it is right about the shit you don't see.
  15. "Hey buddy, the football program I root for isn't getting a generational talent at the QB position how do you like that."
