i do agree Texas needs a true GM who knows how to manage a roster. IMO Harris is way over his skis.
It’s going to be a hot job market for former NFL salary cap and front office washouts. Nagy is just the tip of the shitberg. I hope Texas is more selective, but Sark doesn’t have a great track record.

Bobby and Gerry while much maligned by me this week, brought up an interesting point today.
Maintaining depth is going to be a real problem at Texas. With revenue sharing, schools like Maryland can offer our backups more money and a starting job.
Very difficult waters to navigate that will require a seasoned, professional front office. Not some guy that lists Call of Duty under job skills.

I’m sure he’s adapting, but the man said what he said directly and publicly. Offhand comment ain’t got shit to do with it.

majority of the points I got on a couple wine deals they had that they gave me triple points if I bought it by the case. Loaded up on Christmas gifts that year. So check with your guy for that.
It’s always the wine guys stacking points. Thanks I’ll ask them about double or triple points.

$1 per 1 point. They count for beer, wine, and booze of course, but they also count for food.
Allocated purchases might be counted differently. I’m not sure. There’s nothing in the email confirmation/receipt or physical receipt to indicate how the points were counted.

Some recent rabbit shenanigans:
- Day 16 of waiting for the bottle of EHT BP I purchased via the VIP Vault on 12/23/25.
- 6,500 points is the threshold to maintain black key status. It’s a rolling 12 month total. Pretty decent chance I fall out during the bourbon/rye slow season over the summer.
- Their Woodford Double Oaked pick was $101 at the drop. It’s supposed to be good, but MSRP on that bottle is $50. I accept charging a premium for store picks, but charging double is just greedy.
