I mean if he has frank discussions earlier regarding his status, he should have hit the portal three weeks ago. So it could be that Texas said something like let's see how things go before we talk final NIL numbers, but the more likely scenario is he knew a few names were jumping to the portal in the RB room and was hoping that would make Texas desperate to meet his NIL ask so we had a RB to play in the bowl game.
It would seem equally likely that his agent overplayed his hand and Texas called him on it. If he can go make an extra 100K playing somewhere else, then fine. He is a good player who showed up big against our rivals. He is not irreplaceable.

I was just trying to frame the abject idiocy and absurdity of this singular page in my head when I read your post. Someone new to this site or planet, stumbling into this page for whatever reason, would have no fucking clue what was going on here. None. I think this page is surging in like 4 different directions at once, and almost none of it has anything to do with the actual coaching staff at Texas.

I don’t hate Tech. Them clowning on aggy brings me joy. But that’s about as far as it goes - I’m not rooting for them in the CFP. I’m hoping for an IU win or UO as a secondary.
I would settle for this being Oregon's year so that Phil Knight can take the foot off the gas pedal.

I met my local redass aggy friend for some humble pie this week. He proceeded to tell me how excited he was that they were able to make the playoffs for the first time since the 1940's. (continued below)
When I asked him for clarification, he said that there was a tournament playoff format in college football in the 1940's before the bowl system, and that A&M had participated in said tournament to crown a national champion in the 1940's. Naturally, this sent me to the interwebs to confirm that of course he is an idoit, but there is somehow some more mythical aggie lore circulating around the echo chamber of college station about this. He then went on to tell me how excited he is for next year because he knows that Holman Wiggins is going to be a huge upgrade over Klein because he was at Bama. He also went on to tell me that Reed is going to be in the Heisman conversation next season because he will be a 3 year starter, and that Elko is going to have the defense playing like maniacs next year with a bunch of crazy portal additions. He is already locked and loaded on the front seat of the rollercoaster and it is going to be so fun to watch.

We'll probably never know for sure, but perhaps we posited an NIL haircut based on the end-of-season performance review, or at most, refused to match another purported offer. (cue the "but why?" gif)
I view him as good, but not great. I'm guessing this means that Arch didn't fight too hard to keep him, either. Whatever--we'll need to hit the portal hard for a proven WR1.
Word is that he came back and tried to renegotiate again after two previous negotiations, plus signing day shenanigans when he put a gun to our head and renegotiated then. Quality player, but not worth top tier money.

Bobby mentioned on YouTube this morning that Reed is asking for a very, very high NIL number for 2026.
I'd tell him to kick rocks. There are probably 5 QBs already in the portal I would take over Reed in a heartbeat.
Everyone made all of this noise about his improvement this year, but I saw the same exact guy as last year. He was a better passer inside of 15 yards, and definitely more decisive, but under pressure he reverted to his mean and just tossed up errant throws for interceptions after his first read was taken away.

So my LG TV died this morning 41 days after the 5 year warranty expired (get fucked LG). So to watch this game I went to a local bar wearing a Texas hat.
By the 3rd quarter I’d educated the bar about how ass backward aggy is and they now know it’s a fake military cult.
So I thank LG for helping educate some Pennsylvanians about aggy being aggy.
This sounds like Jordan Belfort's recounting of his night at the country club to the police in Wolf of Wall Street. Can I get the CCTV footage where you threatened to beat up the bus boy and dry humped the pinball machine?

I would’ve said Muschamp by a landslide when Sark originally wanted him and still give him the edge now, but less so because PK was impressive
I thought PK was excellent. The main gripe I have about him is that he let his secondary coaches call the coverages behind him. That is why we got all of those discombobulated coverages at odd times. Muschamp ties the coverage to the defensive call, which is how it should be.

I will be infiltrating enemy territory tonight. My wife is a Sooner, and I'm not going to say no when a friend gifts Champions Club tickets to a CFP game. Weather should be perfect. I'm just gonna roll with it and enjoy the night... and maybe a little schadenfreude no matter which team loses.
There are worse ways to spend a Friday evening.

I hope he stays. I Feel like everyone gave up on him a little too quickly this season after coming off an ACL injury and having Akina coaching him. I think he will be much improved next year.
Really hoping he returns to form, he played really well before his injury. Although I think even before injury he could be had in the pass game.

Tim Drevno, hands down. Give him the keys and stop fucking around. Let him recruit his own guys since he actually recruits 4-5* guys and then fills in the rest appropriately. Dude worked for Harbaugh at Stanford, Michigan, and he worked with Ohio State last year with their line.
Sounds like a real upstanding guy that has zero red flags whatsoever.

Well, considering the guy is likely in his office for 12+ hours per day, I would imagine most coaches do this. Most companies I have worked for have wet bars in the common areas. That is a pretty weak argument unless he was somehow drunk during school hours or something.


Citrus Bowl, Dec 31st - Texas vs Michigan.

Hold up.. Are you implying that Biffington Rodolphius Poggi somehow engaged in an activity that was unbecoming to the university, and/or not in the best interest of the team, and/or just some weird shit that only Mike Leach could get away with? I am shocked I tell you. Shocked.
