Re Bert - Wasn't there some rule that if a walkon gets a certain number of snaps he counts against the 85? Or maybe I'm getting it confused with a rule that if a 2 sport athlete plays he counts against the higher revenue sport's allocation.
Seems like this is a loophole you could drive a truck through for skirting the 85 man limit.
Dual sport athletes count against the football scholarship, other than that walk-on's aren't limited in any way, but dress and travel limits are still enforced.

Speak of the devil, here's the latest. @closetojumping was right. It's apparently a done deal.
Has TFB even been really plugged into Texas recently? I knew they had pretty good sources back when Herman was here but, I haven’t seen them referenced lately with Texas under Sark and especially since CJ has join Bobby at OTF.

LMAO, that family burned bridges at Texas only for Tommy to never play a meaningful season.

Man watching Saban howl and cry to anyone who will give him a platform about NIL and paying players is giving me a raging stiffy. I can only imagine how you guys who are actively involved with Texas's NIL efforts feel. I am honestly bummed out that Saban tucked tailed and ran when he did, a year or two of NIL powers raiding the GOATs roster and his inability todo anything about it would have been nice before Saban was forced to retire.

You goobers that criticize this lady and other milfs that get posted on this site would hit all of them every day and twice on Sunday.
I'd hit it in a heart beat, but I would defiantly use protection and what I mean by protection is putting a tennis ball on that sharp object hazard.

Ahh yes, takes me back to Pat Moorer and the pit weeding out Mack's country club culture. What are Mike Elko's 5 core values and has the A&M Board of Regents and Roger Goodell had a meetings on them?

Yes. That is the only comparison I have. But for any school to achieve what Alabama did would be a rare occurence. But, I am talking about Texas. When have we ever done that?
Ohio state and OU under Riley did it regularly as well, it’s not as rare as you make it seem.

I like the current times when our worries are, "But what if our nose guard is only a 320 pound NFL prospect and not a 360 pound Outland Trophy winner? We might only be ranked preseason number 2 in the country instead of preseason number 1 if this isn't fixed immediately!"
Versus a few years ago:
"Look, all we need to have happen this offseason is for Swoopes to get a lot better at QB, Shawn Watson to completely change his offensive scheme and get a lot better at OC, a few of our lightly recruited 3 star true freshmen come in ready to start on the OL, Dylan Haines needs to surprise some people at safety, Breckyn Hager needs to gain 30 pounds of muscle, stop having games where we lose because 3 kicks get blocked, stop having games we lose because we mess up the coin toss and give the other team the ball both halves, stop losing games because we punt to the other team when we don't have enough timeouts to stop the clock, hire an assistant to be the "gameday" coach so Charlie Strong can focus on other things, maybe hire an actual athletic director this year instead of trying year 3 of an alum doing it on an interim fill-in basis like when one of the other parents has to cover a little league game, try to complete all assistant hires this year without requiring the President of the University to fly to some nobody from Tulsa's house and beg him at his front door to work for us, figure out how to replace the 10 guys we kicked off the team for weed, ... and figure out how to feature our playmakers, like Jake Oliver and Kyle Porter."
This was a decade ago, not a few years, we are officially at the 10 year anniversary of Chuckles becoming head coach at Texas.

Texas desperately needs an unofficial spokesman for when national media talks about Texas. It seems that a lot of other major programs have some sort of front running media for athletics, Eleven Warriors, Mgoblog, Texags, etc. Why Texas instead has to suffer dealing with dumb asses or actively malicious actors like Kirk Bolhs and the AAS always pisses me off. Bobby would make a great Texas spokes person when Finebaum or Pate and any other national media want to talk Texas

Is Tulane star chasing, or are they actually loading up with talent?
Star chasing and it been a terrible move by everyone who tries it, 5* bust that have transferred down have have pretty much all been equally unproductive.

On a recent OTF video Bob Shipley spent several minutes singing the praises of Oscar Giles, saying that he is a grinder and a great recruiter.
I'm starting to get worried.
Bob Shipley is just conversation filler so that Bobby isn’t ranting to himself. Whenever they bring Shipley on he always talks in these almost message board platitudes, frankly even given his ties to the program he seems to shave an equal amount of information as surly does.

Just give yourself another 15-20 years. You’ll be telling your kids about how great SnapChat was, explaining to them the concept of cable TV before streaming, or how Austin still had a small city vibe when you were on campus but now at 5 million people you don’t recognize it anymore. It’s coming.
I am 30 and I just had to explain the Guitar Hero episode of South Park to a high schooler.

How has Sark's sponsor not filed a restraining order against Orgeron to prevent them from ever being in a room together again? Supposedly those two were animals when they got around each other.
Orgeron doesn’t drink anymore, he apparently replaced drinking with working out which is why he has gotten absolutely jacked.

Why is Alabama such a highly sought-after job? Well, besides having a roster full of top talent, most of which will probably stay, it's a program where the school gives the head coach complete and total control. Nick Saban did anything and everything he wanted to do,with no interference.
Texas is not setup that way. It's a school with a lot of people who want to interfere. This input is straight from the people inside Belmont. Texas is a great job, but you do have to deal with that issue. Sometimes that can be annoying.
Obviously, there are a ton of advantages to being at Texas over Bama that have already been listed in this thread.
People need to separate Bama and Saban, Bama was an unstable shit show for a decade before Saban got there.

Idk, I used to listen to him and yeah he's a bandwagon honk, but I also think he just doesn't know anything about anything. He's like if EJ Holland was dumber.
If the 247 message boards had a collective hive mind it would be Ari Wasserman is the best description I can come up with.

Didn't Wasserman write like two years ago that A&M was a better job than Texas?
Wasserman dick rides whoever is a top 5 program, it’s literally his whole shtick. Two years ago A&M as at the peak of their fake it till you make and Texas was at our lowest point, so that’s why Wasserman wrote that article. The board gets extremely Texags about Wasserman being some A&M plant because of his wife. When in reality the dude is just a massive bandwagonner, he was the only one at the Athletic to jump on the Texas bandwagon this year when everyone else as national writers just kept saying seven win Sark and underperforming Texas.

Fucking hell. LSU money whipped one of our coaches that we wanted to keep. Not good.
At a point it can just get stupid and not worth the money.

No one on our defense is getting exposed in the SEC. Playing defense in the Big 12 is a hell of a lot harder than playing defense in the SEC.
This is an out of date take, the Big 12 doesn’t have the same caliber of offenses it did a decade ago, if anything the SEC is more an offense league now than the Big 12.

People can either dismiss what I typed and assume I am a know-nothing dipshit, or they can assume I know what I'm talking about and wouldn't post what I posted unless I had a pretty good source on it. Either way is fine by me, but I'm not going further into the subject. Davis going to Bama would be somewhat mindblowing.
Davis going to LSU wouldn't surprise me in the least and he'd have zero problems getting through compliance there, or SEC approvals, should those actually be a thing.
I am not doubting your intel, I just didn’t know if it was a Bama specific issue with Davis or an SEC head office decision and he was being grandfathered in when Texas joins the SEC. But if he can leave Texas for LSU then that answers my question.

There are substantial problems associated with Davis returning to Bama. Saban would have to be really desperate to cash in the chips needed for that. Not saying it couldn't happen, just saying it would be kind of amazing.
I am assuming this is an SEC thing and not a Bama issue because unless their is some legal issue I have a hard time seeing Saban being told no to an assistant hire.

Just watched Kyle Floods N'awlins presser. He's very well spoken and carries himself like a head corch. Is there any program shitcanning their HC that would be interested? I'd like to keep him, he's recruited very well and for the first time in what seems like forever the O-line isnt an Achilles heel.
I know losing coaches is a good thing because that means you're having success, but I think continuity among the staff played a big role in how this season turned out as well. Hope Choate is the only loss but something tells me he won't be.Flood had one of the biggest head coaching disasters ever at Rutgers. He would have to drop down to the G5 level for a head coaching position and work his way up again which he more than likely could have done by now if he wanted to.

This actually makes Sanders look worse in the eyes of the NFL. He knew that the bench press would be part of his draft process which means one of two things, he is either weak or he put basically no effort into preparing for the draft which is the ultimate red flag for scouts.
