  1. The key recruiting battles to watch (Mon. 7:12am CST) - Gerry
  2. (OTF) Site Announcement By Bobby Burton Rule no. 1 of business. Never stop improving, ever. ** OTF is proud to announce that we are adding new voices to the channel and the site for the 2025 football season while simultaneously expanding the current roles of several key contributors. Please join me in welcoming former Longhorn players Marcus Myers and Will Matthews to our weekly programming. Will, who is the sideline analyst for the Longhorn Radio Network, is joining us every Thursday morning to talk about the upcoming game. Marcus will be joining the crew twice a week, including the Thursday Night Livestream with Rod and Coach Bob Shipley. I’m happy and proud to say that that brings us to six former Longhorn players - Brian Robison, Tony Hills, Stevie Lee, Marcus, Will, and of course, Rod Babers - who are now contributing to OTF regularly. We are also adding Amanda Atwell to our staff. Amanda is a UT journalism graduate, a former college athlete, and a lifelong Longhorn fan. She has spent several years in the broadcast business serving as sports director in Harlingen and Amarillo before moving to a different role at WFAA in Dallas. Amanda will be hosting our Tuesday and Wednesday night Livestreams alongside CJ Vogel and Jeff Howe. She is perhaps best known in the Longhorn community for her current podcast Moving Goalposts that she co-hosts with everyone’s (least) favorite Aggie Billy Liucci. Additionally, Coach Bob Shipley will be expanding his work with us this football season, as will Coach Bryan Erwin. Coach Shipley will not only be appearing on two weekly Livestreams with Rod and CJ, but he’ll also be appearing weekly on a high school football show, as well as our Post-Game Grades on Sunday. Coach Shipley and Coach Erwin will also join me on Monday’s Lunch with the Coaches, and Coach Erwin will talk with us on Coffee & Football each Friday morning. We’re also going to do something a little different. We’re adding a high school show. Long-time high school expert Carl Padilla and former Aledo state champion Coach Tim Buchanon will be joining Shipley and Coffee & Football host Blake Munroe for a new weekly show that focuses on high school football. ** One specific programming note: We are moving The Winning Drive from its 3pm slot on Mondays and Thursdays to the evenings on Mondays and Thursdays. ** I would also like to take this time to mention that these additions come largely because of our continued increase in viewership over the past two years. The growth we have seen has been amazing. And that growth has naturally attracted marquee advertisers. We would like to thank new advertisers Vonlane, Tito’s Vodka, Bingham’s Bourbon, Tecovas, Prize Picks, Seat Geek, and Hays City Store, for joining OTF this season. And we would also like to thank those who are returning that have helped us along the way, including Faust Distributing, Flight from Yuengling, The Loewy Law Firm, Duck Camp, Hargrove Roofing, South Point Dodge, The Co-Op, Austin Underground, Austin Orthopedic Institute, Advanced Pain Care, Longhorn Wealth Management, BKCW Insurance, Rogue Shoppe, My Perfect Franchise, the 40 Acres Collection, Mark Saunders of Allstate, and Laura Baker of Keller Williams. Again, OTF and our increased coverage of the Longhorns would not be possible without the combination of viewership/subscribers and our sponsors. We hope we bring you a product for the 2025 football season that everyone enjoys, respects and feels is true to the Longhorn community at large. First and foremost, we want to be informative while giving folks a real sense of what it means to like and follow the Longhorns. Those will always be our priorities. Thank you for everything. Here's to a great 2025 season! Hook'Em!
  3. Texas Inks Lucrative Official Cardiovascular Supplement of Texas Athletics, Logos to Playing Surface (Monday) By CJ Vogel 17 minutes ago AUSTIN, Texas – What started as a University of Texas Health Science Center research initiative has evolved into a nationally recognized wellness brand — and now, Humann is taking its relationship with Texas Athletics to the next level. The Austin-based company has been named the Official Cardiovascular Supplement of Texas Athletics under a new multi-year agreement arranged through Longhorn Sports Properties. As part of the deal, Humann’s branding will appear on athletic playing surfaces across campus beginning this August. “This collaboration captures the spirit of what makes the University of Texas special,” said Chris Del Conte, Vice President and Athletics Director. “We wanted any brand displayed in our facilities to reflect the UT story. Humann began through Texas research, has supported our athletes for years, and now helps people everywhere improve their heart health and overall wellness.” The expanded relationship underscores a shared vision between two homegrown institutions. For Texas Athletics, it’s another example of performance innovation shaping the student-athlete experience. For Humann, it’s an opportunity to showcase how better blood flow contributes to both peak competition and everyday vitality. For the first time in Texas Athletics history, another brand’s logo will appear alongside the Longhorn logo across every field and court, including: Darrell K Royal–Texas Memorial Stadium (football) Moody Center (basketball, beginning the ’26-’27 season) UFCU Disch-Falk Field (baseball) Red & Charline McCombs Field (softball) Lee and Joe Jamail Texas Swimming Center (swimming & diving) Gregory Gymnasium (volleyball) Texas Tennis Center (tennis) Mike A. Myers Stadium and Soccer Field (track & soccer) Texas Longhorns Boathouse (rowing) Charles Alan Wright Fields at the Berry M. Whitaker Complex (beach volleyball) UT Golf Club (men’s & women’s golf)
  4. Monday - Bobby Big Note: As I reported late last week, Trevor Goosby is expected to go this weekend so long as there are no setbacks.
  5. They play @GT early too. Another potential L.
  6. Ah, yes. I see the familial likeness now.
  7. OTF's (Texas High School Football) Super Team 2025 (Thursday 8:03am CST) - Gerry
  8. I bet they go to the portal at LB again. Take another hybrid type (or two) if Spence leaves a year early since Moore also graduates.
  9. Recruiting related: OTF's (Texas High School Football) Super Team 2025 (Thursday 8:03am CST) - Gerry
  10. Thursday - Bobby Bobby discusses his breakout star candidate (besides Arch, it's Wingo) and four others that will pleasantly surprise us (Clark, Spence, Vasek, and Littleton)
  11. State's No. 2 Ranked 2027 Safety Updates Recruitment (Wednesday PM) - Vogel (OTF) Sophomore Hudl: https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16359778/6730d3fcc32d5a463c749ff1 Eli Johnson and Sark at the June 1st Elite Camp:
  12. How 'Deep' Will Texas Go in Season Opener (Wednesday) - Vogel While the article is about team depth, I hope Texas goes deep, no lube, on OSU in the opener. Besides, CJ knew what he was setting up with his choice in title.
  13. Texas 2026 class season openers this week - Gerry
  14. Not stanning for Sayin, but that's not what happened. He was an early enrollee and transferred after Saban retired. He wasn't even there his freshman year. Also, chastising a should-be high school senior QB seeing he won't beat out the incumbent starting QB who ultimately got drafted after that season in the third round of the NFL draft is... quite the take. That being said, I also hope (and think our defense will) wreck shop.
  15. A little more offensive line discussion - Bobby
  16. Recruiting notes and a team note (Tuesday 2:05pm CST) -Gerry Note: Team note can be found in the Fall Camp thread, but it's really just that Simon is expected to contribute as a freshman. https://247sports.com/player/kavian-bryant-46145096/ https://247sports.com/player/alvin-mosley-46151559/
  17. Recruiting notes and a team note (Tuesday 2:05pm CST) - Gerry Note: I just posted the team note here. Recruiting info can be found in the 2027 thread. Simon's junior tape. I can't find senior year. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16091617/657fb2040dc08d0e2c9a69b0
  18. How should Texas deal with Jeremiah Smith in rematch with Ohio State? - Howe (OTF)
  19. Monday - Bobby Not much of substance here, but I'll post it nonetheless:
  20. Misc. OTF Stuff: Freshman Class Expectations: After two scrimmages (Sun. 11:35 CST) - Gerry McCutcheon, Lockett, Brooks, Littleton, Phillips are assumed to contribute the most as freshman. I assume Jonah would pick football. --- --- --- --- --- Deep defensive tackle rotation is a key piece of Steve Sarkisian's plan to get Texas over the hump - Howe
  21. And just like that, we found Alot. Great work, Surly!
  22. Texas Hoops Report: Staff likes the roster (Sat. 7:15am CST) - Gerry
  23. Well, maybe this season is finally when the wheels come off enough to fire AK and get a real coach to run the program.
  24. Just How Dangerous Might the 3rd Down Defense Be? (Thursday) - Vogel
