  1. Lol fuck no. I mean we are doing ok but literally attempting to crowd source a war chest is just impossible in how immediately it’s needed. There are a ton of levels everyone can give at on texasonefund.org, personally if you (not you yourself skipper, I know you donate) watch Texas football and follow along closely enough to post on recruiting forums $40 a month should be pretty reasonable plus it’s tax deductible and comes with even additional perks! We are working on that through Learfield and even were the promoting sponsor for the spring game. We want recurring if possible, it was helps us balance the P&L more than sudden pops at events although they do help. the hardest part with all of this is the sole fact that people think it’s handled already. It’s not my problem cause Michael fucking Dell has it covered…couldn’t be further from the truth. There have been a handful of dudes (one in particular for football) that has poured enough resources into this that it would make you vomit. We need the average Texas fan to donate. I’m not a season ticket guy, I’m not a BMD, but everyone can give SOMETHING if they care about succeeding I am all for poor shaming folks, no question
  2. Cocaine residue building inside the epidermis solely on his head, trust me I’m a doctor
  3. “Ya but that would make it too easy and I would get too much sleep if this happened. What fun is that”- RGBIIIs liver and sanity @closetojumping knows better but they are trying to assemble the plane mid flight
  4. We need way more money in the door before this will ever matter
  5. Ya that would be fucking hilarious and awesome. Ruiz is a snake
  6. Of course, I don’t disagree with your initial surprise whatsoever, I don’t “think” that’s what’s happening without myself or CTJ knowing in some fashion. But my premise was not about this specific commitment only, I mean in general the opportunities here are more abundant even for lesser known players, I think guys like Broughton even have corporate NIL that we can point to which helps offset straight dollar for dollar. Ohio state: here is 200k and an f150 lease Texas: we won’t give you 200k but we can do 100k plus a Porsche and how much do you like mustard?
  7. I meant NIL collective motivated and that he could have compared numbers from texas and Ohio state and realized that corporate NIL money at texas balances that difference out or made it negligible enough that he could pick based on school and roster merits. At the end of the day, Texas One fund doesn’t have to handle every single dollar unlike aggy, solely because of corporate opportunities in Austin compared to those in CS or Colombus
  8. Or it was less NIL motivated than thought (at least from collective perspective) not inside info just adding a layer
  9. Rumors out there that Neto may go find a guaranteed starting spot somewhere
  10. As someone who grew up in Sugar Land, I can tell you this is the least surprising profile ever between the name, picture and the high school
  11. This is my wife’s go to as well. Will damn near bankrupt me buying Vueve (but she lets me touch her good bits afterwards so worth it) I thought he was saying Aerosol spritz, and I was trying to figure how he was able to get Prosecco in a can with condensed pressurized air and how hard core that would be to get drunk on, like cougar whippets
  12. You mean Daniel Figurelli the racist aka Daniel Joseph the racist aka Daniel Wilson the racist
  13. But which one of these ladies would be able to give us the same hummmmdingers about Old Rock the good Ag
  14. This has been talked about briefly but logistics of it probably make that impossible as well as the tickets going to one fund could be construed as the university providing a benefit to the collective
  15. Julks can be my friend now
  16. Sorry last thing. Fuck Dusty for playing Meyers over Chas on opening day. The man made the most important and game changing catch in Astros history, we may not win it without him. Give him his fucking respect
  17. Yes same Ya that was my point I will always love dusty for last year…I have NO idea how he was legitimately damn near perfect last post season This is the smallest sample size ever lol I get the negative dWAR but also they have played entirely different positions throughout their careers I think the depth thing has been one of the biggest things that has been overlooked. Abreu was a great signing and filled a good need. Bringing Brantley back on a one year deal was fine. I like Montero and he was overpaid but so was the reliever market this year surprisingly so I get it. The one big thing missing this offseason was adding a Marwin/Aledmys type dude that can give you veteran and proven ABs instead of relying on some of these young dudes without the experience and especially someone that could have capably filled in at the plate with Altuve out, Profar was the last remaining that would make sense hence my suggestion. I won’t keep ranting but either way Hensley Diaz and Chas need to get every day ABs without question
  18. This already happened. He’s not on the roster, he’s just done with football. Bad shoulder and being able to slay pussy without needing to be on the team made this an inevitability.
  19. That would be great, very much hope this is the case and you’d def know better than I would
  20. Fwiw the Johnson smoke isn’t about money. More about not wanting to play school for a year
  21. Actually mistyped on Diaz. I meant Salazar
  22. Bottom of the lineup is a colossal black hole. Dubon, Julks, Diaz, Maldy and especially Myers shouldnt be rostered. I get the whole Maldy pitch calling thing but damn...Hensley and Chas need to be in the lineup every day, at least they arent negative WAR players. When Altuve went down they should have been all over Profar, hes a better outfielder than dubon and can ACTUALLY play second. That said, it hasnt even been a week yet, I am completely unconcerned
  23. AJ Johnson may not be coming to Texas now and instead going to the NBL. Arterio Morris may test the portal as well but could be a raise play
