Parker Livingstone
Part of me has grown up and hopes he’s just getting some decent money before his State Farm career kicks off. The other part hopes he shreds his knee trying to waterski in blue jeans on the Chattahoochee.

Is it true Indiana offered Alan Jagson 800k? I find that hard to believe, but if true I’m not sure how that jives with the idea that they are operating on some high level in the portal.

Managing the portal is a combination of herding cats and unlocking a door in the dark where you have to feel around to find the lock, hope you have the right key, all while not being 100% sure you’re even trying to open the right door. Information works differently in these situations. It’s mostly smoke and mirrors and the ground is always moving beneath you. It’s a fools errand to try to report information that seems accurate, and it’s even dumber to try to follow moment by moment with the expectation that reading something is even current by the time it reaches you. Bobby and Gerry have to participate because their business model requires it. They’re at the mercy of coaches, staff, parents, players, and agents that are all jostling for position and willing to put false information out if it benefits them in the negotiation. The best they can do is constantly hedge, but that’s not what their paying subscribers are looking for. I got to see the inside of a high profile WR negotiation a few years ago. It was such a shitshow I didn’t have much interest in the process after that. A donor personally managed the negotiation with the agent, made what he thought was a winning offer, was told by the agent the deal was done and to send the paperwork, and 20 minutes later the player had signed with another school for one notch above our offer. I’m sure that happens all the time, so there’s not much use in “confidence levels” and “gut feelings”.

I dont understand why everyone is acting like we are out of it. We have a great pitch for him. He's in the due diligence/seeking higher offers stage.

Gerry mentioned earlier, he doesnt think Texas is going to give out any market setting offer that exceeds how much our best players are currently getting. How much is Marcel Reed getting?

Smothers to Bama should help us with Raleek Brown you would think.

Coleman got the Sark/Arch pitch with the full Austin treatment. The money is there to get him to the ballpark he’s looking for. Not much else we can do. If he wants to go full mercenary and is willing to play in Lubbock then Campbell will not be outbid in a situation where he can flex on both us and a&m. That goose egg in the playoff can’t be helping them out though. I am optimistic.

Im not in full blown panic mode, Im just not expecting big things next season. Sark is who he is and hes rolling with the same staff and offense as the 25 season. If we can upgrade the personnel on the OL, RB, and WR, it cant be worse right? Especially with Arch's ascension as a leader and a stud. I expect our OL to be average, I think the receivers will be slightly better. I still think theres a very good chance we upgrade at RB and that becomes more of a strength. I think issues will persist with penalties and special teams play. Muschamp's defense is the great point of hope.

I choose to blindly believe this means Lacy is inevitable.

Banks is the cfb portal version of Napoleon, hurredly executing his campaign so he can return to his beloved Josephine (Pole Assassin.)

Someone needs to tell the football board they can't flush their tampons anymore.

Did he skip a meeting or did he ask to sleep in because they blew it out last night?

Nahlin is not a trustworthy source. Bobby and Gerry bailed on him because he brings basically zero added value.
