  1. And still the only conference to pull it off and the only one that has made multiple cases for it and will be adding a team that was regularly one of the other 3.
  2. Well the SEC currently gets 25-50% of the playoff spots so I don't see how this hurts them.
  3. Half of this board is fucking morons that regularly get fooled by fake Twitter accounts.
  4. So white and with a knee brace is his #1 QB?
  5. Well that’s because all of Bama’s WR’s and RB’s scored the touch downs. How many of Bama TD were from the goal line were the QB could make the play?
  6. Once the pads come on I think we will see the difference, Thompson’s legs may give him the edge should the Oline protection not be great.
  7. The SEC dropped the hammer with OU and Texas. Any conference scrambling to react to that is foolish, the SEC has all the cards trying to raise the stakes only plays into the SEC hands. The push back on the playoff is a perfect example, Sankey firing back the current status quo is fine and the SEC benefits either way but trying to torpedo the playoff expansion only hurts the other conferences.
  8. That’s a conference that collapses and see’s USC Washington and Oregon in the Big10 or SEC in 15 years.
  9. Where is the Nasshon Hughes and Ta'Quon Graham are turning heads and looking like having a break out year part of the fall camp 9.95 update?
  10. Hot Take. I think moving to the SEC is the only way that Texas could become a title contender in again. My reasoning being the SEC is pretty damn open about winning football games and making money are the goal and everything else is just bullshit. I have always felt that Texas suffers from it's own form of Michigan Man syndrome and a move to the Pac-12 or B1G would exacerbate those issues. If Texas underperforms in the SEC then that mean ass beatings from Pig, Aggy, LSU and OU and that's going really get fans and donors to shake the AD tree to fix shit.
  11. It doesn't matter what the talent was decades ago when you guys were in college it's what's on campus now, and A&M and Texas are very much in the same category. And neither Texas or A&M come close to Ole Miss, Bama and Scar because those schools actively recruit the B-C students with rich dads and trophy wife moms who couldn't get into Texas, UGA or UF, to come to their school and major in business or comms and live the life.
  12. That who? Stewart, Harris, Perkins? I don’t like the odds on any of those.
  13. Since it needs to be repeated apparently, massive flips basically never happen if a kid commits elsewhere the odds of Texas flipping them are slim. So people thinking that if Sark wins 10 games we are going to see tons of blue chips flip to Texas and secure a top 5 class are going extremely disappointed. The last massive flip event I can think of was UGA in 2017 but that with a SEC conference title, title game appearance, bagmen dropping off ford raptors, and Kirby showing photo's of Sabans recruiting board to make that happen. So I feel it's pretty safe to say Texas isn't going todo that.
  14. It's good to see you have recovered from Tom Herman's Maryland opening shit show.
  15. Well I can tell you guys are a bunch of geezers by the photos y'all post, which are staged models and all look to be from 15 years ago. If we are talking about how hot the student body of the school, I hate to break it to ya but Texas is upper middle tier in the SEC. Ole Miss, Auburn, Scar and Bama all got Texas beat for sure, next would be UGA, Texas, UF, A&M, LSU. TUK with MSU, UK, arky, and OU pulling up the rear. I have never dealt with Vandy so I can't say. But 6% admission requirements have definitely had an effect on the smoke shows trying to apply to Texas.
  16. I am buying all the lotto tickets and scratch offs I can get, so I am doing my best to help properly drop bags for NIL.
  17. Fake account dumbass.
  18. It's damage control, fans and boosters are going to start to ask why Texas players aren't getting paid like Bama, OSU, and UO players are. NIL is out in the open so we can ask what the fuck we are actually doing unlike the bag game where it was hush hush and the program would never actually speak on the subject.
  19. You do realize that's exactly who we are trying to recruit
  20. This sounds like the NCAA is going to bust UGA, A&M, Bama any day now for paying players wish casting that has been going on for years. Because if anything has been made abundantly clear, it's that the federal government is barley able to pass any legislation at all much less in a timely manner. So no I don't think waiting on some future federal policy or legislation is a smart move and giving our recruiting adversaries possibly years head start in weaponizing NIL.
  21. Regarding NIL, Del Conte said he believes there will be federal intervention soon in the form of a narrow antitrust law. “You can have something in Oregon that’s different in Florida, that’s different in Maine, that’s different in Texas. That’s just not how we’re operating. Am I anticipating that [intervention]? Yes.” If this is the mentality of the our AD leading the program into the SEC then we are setting ourselves up for a massive butt fucking.
  22. Will you stupid fucks stop saying this, this take has been repeated on this board ad nauseum for the last 10 years and it has never worked out.
  23. Or maybe people with actual pull are starting to ask questions about why Texas recruits and players are not getting massive NIL deals. And if the flood gates open then none of these players would give OB and the fat fuck the time of day, so this is just ketch protecting his investment.
