    2021 NFL DRAFT

    Does Dallas take OT here? There are some seriously good players on the board.

    2021 NFL DRAFT

    That’s a fuck ton of draft capital to trade for a guy that “has accuracy issues he has to work through.”
  3. I think the point of a roster churn doesn’t just involve the bringing in. It involves the sending out as well. Our WR and LB rooms, for instance beyond a few key players damn near need a rebuild to the studs.
  4. If we beat Stanford in a head to head recruiting battle for an offensive lineman, I will eat a McRib.
  5. The last few pages of this thread had AIDS. Not even the good kind you get from a slutty party girl at Mardis Gras, either. I’m talking about the sharing heroin needles in a dark alley off Skid Row kind of AIDS.
  6. Help me out- what was the backstory on the Banks recruitment? We told him he is a linebacker but A&M promised him a shot at receiver?
  7. I do not think the OL and QB questions are lack of talented players on campus. Same with safety. They just have work to do to coach them up. They have the edge rusher situation resolved with current and projected transfers. If we get our top guys healthy by August and grab one more receiver in the portal, that position won’t be as dire as what it looked like Saturday. We need four viable linebackers and we had one Saturday. We get one back for fall camp and I guess the NMSU guy is someone we can count on? Hopefully the USC transfer can fill out the two deep. It won’t be pretty if we are legit counting on a Brock or Ford to play key snaps this fall. They just do not look ready yet.
  8. Saturday was definitely not a great showing for sure. I counted five drops in the first quarter alone. That being said, we have seen better from Moore and I think he is at least an average Big 12 receiver. Whitt and Smith are more questions of staying healthy than lacking the requisite talent. Our best overall receiver was wearing a knee brace and not even 75%. There are a lot of “ifs” but if those four are healthy, that’s at least an average Big 12 receiving unit. After those four? Holy fucking shit it’s not pretty.
  9. For the most part, the Texas roster is in far better shape than it was in 2017. Linebacker and wide receiver are the obvious exceptions. The good news is if there ever were positions that could be fixed quickly via the portal, it’s those two.
  10. I think it’s pretty obvious which QB has more upside. It makes you wonder why Thompson got so much work with the first team offense.
  11. I’d be surprised if the alternative band has much participation after the first year or two. I know high school bands actually have competition but in college without sports, is there really another venue to perform?
  12. That’s a great recommendation for anyone looking to need a full stint before the age of 50.
  13. I realize I have a tendency to be optimistic by nature but I’m pretty bullish Card. Herman and staff were pretty high on him and I think he is going to start to separate. He’s probably not getting propped up by his receivers right now, either.
  14. That’s interesting that you brought that Covid thread up. If you go back through the predictions I was right far more than I was wrong. That’s a terrible example to point to discredit my opinions. I took the contrarian view that we would have a season and a vaccine sooner rather than later while the majority of people took the opposite view. Your inner Michael Scott is on full display, sir.
  15. Have you ever heard him on a podcast? It’s hard to even follow his words through all of the mouth breathing. I’m waiting for the new story to break one day about a Texas football recruiting analyst that had a cardiac event in a recording studio.
  16. That’s a good way to announce to the board that you have no idea what you are talking about.
  17. I think people are not realizing how much returning talent we actually have on the offensive line. When deployed properly we have already seen how effective it can be at the end of the season.
  18. USC might be more entitled and Ohio State might rival LSU fans in an IQ race to the bottom but I have yet to find the toxic combination of entitlement and self righteousness that the Chicago area Michigan fans have. Imagine the cuntiness of a Rice or Northwestern fan with the entitlement of the worst kind of Texas fan. And imagine the worst 1% of that toxic mix as the moderators of their fan sites. I hope we fucking tampered to get Worthy and I hope Sark drags his nuts all over their entire fan base in the process.
  19. I realize we think the most insufferable fans are in College Station but as someone who spends a lot of time in the Chicago area I can honestly say Michigan fans are on another level. They are the most entitled mother fuckers of any sports team I have ever seen.
  20. This one has basically been telegraphed. Texas basketball and football winning the portal wars so far.
  21. Now, I was originally only in for the first and third girl but the rare mother/daughter combo cannot be ignored.
