    It seems to me like Vic still needs to land another inside difference maker to be competing for a FF next year. Neg me if you want, but I don't see it in Oldacre. She didn't get starting min at Miami and her stats don't indicate anything more than a replacement for Hadi, and not an equal of Gaston. Not much left to go after though.

    And, of course, nobody knows how long it will be before Rori is back in form. I remember it took Lashann 2 years.

    Yeah, I think we're all in agreement here. Need to land Barker.

    I was higher than most here on his hire by Colorado and my bet in December '22 was 4 wins in '23, 7 wins in '24, and gone by '25. God will be calling him to a new place soon.

    Feeling pretty good about it. Love the hire as an outsider wanting entertainment, and even if I was a Colorado fan I'd probably be grateful for some kind of show. But I'm not a Colorado fan, so whatever.

    Regarding Deion violating the special sanctity of College Football and being a Classless Clown... don't care.

    I don't think that kind of upward trajectory is going to pan out. Regardless, he'll probably be gone as soon as any type of better opportunity arises. With his sons gone after this year, there's no incentive to stay.

    That being said, I hope they suck ass.

    I don't know man, these janitors came all the way to California to meet me and couple other alumni. They also asked me to be on the board of the new incubator to foster entrepreneurship among UT engineers.

    6'8 Onyema getting 10

    Onyema is an absolute liability. Him getting 10 mins/game would be disastrous. He couldn't dribble, let alone catch a pass, without the opportunity for a TO occurring this past season.

    Correct. The thing that got people the most worked up was that he called the coaching “embarrassing”. Folks here won’t like hearing the following but the defense against the poor coaching was the closeness of the final score, including Terry rebutting with folks to that point. “We barely lost!”. Okay then. 

    Here's a wild thought... Maybe Texas wins a close game with better situational coaching. Not calling you out, CTJ - I know you agree. The hand holding of RT's in-game decision making is just crazy sometimes.

  5. The Stampede: Recruits (2025 & 2026) react to Texas' record-breaking NFL Draft showing

    Spoiler

    Horns247 asked a number of 2025 and '26 targets for their thoughts on the Longhorns' NFL Draft success.

    Horns247 Staff

    Apr 29th, 8:00 AM

    Texas had its best-ever 7-round NFL Draft showing over the weekend, seeing 11 players selected, including two in the first round. It was the Longhorns' first multi-pick first round since 2007. 

    It's a testament to the Steve Sarkisian Era rounding into full form, as the program returns to the success it used to enjoy on an annual basis. 

    And it all starts with recruiting. Texas has had a lot of success both from the high school ranks and the Transfer Portal in recent cycle, including the class of 2024. 

    That doesn't look like it's slowing down anytime soon either. The Longhorns already hold a top 20 class in the 2025 and are in position to pickup some major pieces to continue bolstering the roster. 

    Following the NFL Draft this weekend, Horns247 reached out to a number of targets and commits in both the '25 and '26 classes, to get their thoughts on UT having almost a dozen draft picks.

    We'll continue adding reactions as they come in throughout the day/week. 

    Note: Jordan handled defense, Hank handled offense.

     

    2025

    Rickey Stewart, 4-star RB, Tyler Chapel Hill (Texas commit) – "Seeing the draft from the Texas people was exciting. Got to see the guys celebrate with they family and friends on TV. Can't wait for that to be me."

    Lance Jackson, 4-star DL, Texarkana Pleasant Grove (Texas commit) — "I thought it was really cool and makes me feel good with my decision I know the coaches at Texas are going to develop me into what I want to be and to my goal of going to the NFL it just shows me that all my coaches are going to push me and I'm going to be around an atmosphere of winners."

    Bo Barnes, 4-star LB, Dallas Skyline (Texas commit) — "I was just thinking, Texas has developed those guys that got drafted this past weekend and what was going through my mind is that can be me. I will be developed by the best coaches and be surrounded by great people." 

    Emaree Winston, 4-star TE, Calhoun (Ga.) — (On Ja'Tavion Sanders getting picked in later rounds) "Lol why so late?" 

    Jonathan Cunningham, 3-star LB, North Crowley — "I feel like Texas has a strong football program and having 11 players drafted reflects the quality of their coaching and player development."

    Jaboree Antoine, 4-star CB, New Iberia (LA) Westgate (LSU commit) — "It's crazyy to see a school produce 11 players that will have a chance to succeed at the next level!"

    Cobey Sellers, 4-star CB, Pearland Shadow Creek — "Very impressive, with the talent that they are bringing back they can only get better. They have a real chance at going into the SEC and turning some heads." 

    James Simon, 4-star RB, Shreveport (La.) Calvary Baptist Academy — "I think it shows how good of a developer and coach that Coach Choice is."

    Kaliq Lockett, 5-star WR, Sachse — "It's going to keep rolling for the Longhorns. They're on their way to having another big year in the class with Isaiah Bond and more. They're starting to become another one of these schools that are putting wide receivers in the league like others."

    Kade Phillips, 4-star CB, Fort Bend Hightower — "That is actually crazy that means they get guys in the league and that's a real good look

    Michael Terry III, 5-star ATH, San Antonio Alamo Heights — "Well just being honest I'm not surprised. They're led by great and well experienced coaches and were talented players."

    Peter Langi, 3-star IOL, San Francisco (Calif.) Archbishop Riordan — "Man UT did great in the draft and usually schools have about 5 max but it's UT so of course they added another 11 to their NFL list, and it just shows a lot about UT and what they can do to produce that amount of great players to the league and set them up for the future! #HookEm"

    Smith Orogbo, 4-star DL, Alief Hastings — "I think Texas is a great place because they have a great coaching staff to help people to develop as great players because it shows in the draft."

    2026

    Jesse Ford, Top247 DL, Arlington Martin — "It really shows how their program develops their guys really well, they produce a lot of next level talent that I would love to be a part of. Texas is definitely a place that you would want to go to because of how much NFL talent there is and it also shows how great the coaches are as well. 11 players in one draft is pretty crazy…"

    Preston Carey, DL, IMG Academy (FL) — "I was very impressed especially with Byron [Murphy] the first defensive tackle being taken in this year's draft in the first round that shows that Texas develops great players at my position."

    Christopher Stewart, WR, Shadow Creek – "My thoughts on the players that got drafted from Texas, it's very big because it's the most that they have had drafted in a minute, and it's big for Coach Sark."

    Talanoa Ili, 5-star LB, Orange (CA) Lutheran — "I think that says a lot about the program, and the players coming out of it. The hard work and dedication that was put in paid off for those players. Also competition wise they're going against the best in practice which is likely going to translate to the game, helping them getting to the next level!"

    Kosi Okpala, 4-star LB, Katy Mayde Creek — "It's a good thing to see how they set their players up for success and develop them for the league"

    Keisean Henderson, 4-star ATH – Legacy School of Sport and Sciences – "That was very cool to see."

    Tank King, 4-star LB, Port Arthur Memorial — "Not surprised at all because Texas is one of the biggest football programs in college. They always recruit big names and they play at high levels with high players that come out in the draft. They will always have big names." 

    Troy Huhn, 4-star QB, San Clemente(Calif.) Mission Hills —"It was something special. It just shows that Texas can develop players into great players to get to that next level!"

    Markel Ford, 4-star S, Mesquite Horn — "It was good to see an in-state team send that many people to the league."

    Isaiah Williams, S, Fort Bend Marshall — "My thought of it was "wow" if that's what that program does then that's where I want to be."

    Dia Bell, 4-star QB, Fort Lauderdale (Fla.) American Heritage – "Having 11 guys drafted says a lot about the level of talent they are able to get at Texas. It says even more about their ability as a staff to develop that talent!"

    Tradarian Ball, 4-star RB, Texas High – "It shows how productive their players are, they're very great. My favorite pick was Xavier Worthy going to the Chiefs. They're most definitely getting the 3-peat without a doubt." 

    Javian Osborne, 4-star RB, Forney – "This shows that Texas is headed in the right direction. From the recruiting to development. It's big time!"

    This motherfucker is going to luck into being unfireable at the end of the season.  Puke.

    After a likely regional exit.

    It's likely that CDC already knows whether or not Pierce is his guy heading into the SEC. I don't believe he's really in "wait and see" mode on Pierce. I certainly could be wrong, but CDC has made it known he wants all programs set up to compete immediately.
