    Not strictly transfer related, but significant roster news 

  • This kind of shit from our fanbase wears me out. Sark took over a lost program and since we've been to 2 semis and should have been in the playoffs this year but for a committee that doesn't understan

Yeah I’d rather pay more for the 6’3 specimen than take a discount for the 5’9 white kid from San Jose State.

Hey I don’t know if you are talking about football or dating, cuz I married the 5’9er who went to San Jose State and it worked out pretty well for me. You know it, you know the story. Now tell the whole damn world it is Spartan territory.

Best guess as to what Scudero would cost? Like, could we get two of him if they existed for one Cam Coleman.

I’ll take two scuderos and an al pastor, on corn

If you make a habit of going cheap for smaller, slower players, you are going to end up with a football team that is small and slow

Ridiculous that this dude won the Burlsworth Trophy over Taaffe

No problem with him whatsoever winning the Burlsworth over Taaffe.

He is better at his position than Taaffe is at his. He was more important to his team than Taaffe was to his, and he has a better story as walk-on.

That was an easy choice.

Your right.

I get it everyone is trying to do the math here and the numbers but are we going all in or what? not saying go get Coleman but trying to find the route to a championship isn’t going to be cheap.

Go big or go home!!

Scudero had a whopping 60 yards against our vaunted pass defense and. Produced less than 75 yards against defensive powerhouses such as Utah State, Air Force, Nevada and Fresno state. Idk what it is with yall that are so fixated on the guy that played for San Jose state and previously for….checks notes… Sacramento state. Btw, Sacramento, just like San Jose and Fresno, is a city and not a state.

But there are state universities located in those cities.

one thing is for certain, we are about to find out just how "all in" on the portal in a few weeks.

??? Michael Taaffe went from walk on to 1st team all american. Mestemaker was All AAC.

CC might be great at his new spot but I watched a lot of his games and he’s pretty good but Texas fans would hate him when he drops passes and gets caught from behind in the open field. If y’all hate wingo shiiiiiitttt. CC is good but not as great as y’all think.

Route to a championship isnt stacking diva #1 receivers. It's stacking the line with monsters who can actually play ball and block for a top portal back they need to shell out to get.

A new message board test for me- if you watch Danny Scudero play football and thought “Man that guy is slow and not that good at football” I can probably just ignore of your football takes from now on.

He’s a good receiver but he’s not what we need.

If you’re going all in it’s all of it combined. Not picking and choosing. If you can make your team better then you add them. In a truly all in scenario price is not a factor.

Worked pretty well for 2019 LSU and 2020 Alabama

Edit: 2024 Ohio State too

Those teams had a functioning OL. We do not, and they are expensive.

Yeah, cool story. I spent the last week with a big money donor (whose name I won't divulge) and he didn't tell me anything. In fact, he barely talked to me except to say "fuck off".

yeah well i spent the last 3 years fucking a big money donor's wife, and all I got outta him were a couple shotgun shells in my arse

They largely figured that problem out late in the season. If they had our 2025 OL play in the post season they weren’t winning shit even with those wide receivers. Very useful link from May though thanks.

The point is 2024 Ohio State knew they had offensive line issues going into the season. What did they do in the portal? They signed an All American running back and an All American safety. They didn't hold off on upgrading the rest of the team until everyone was all warm and fuzzy about the line.

Their OL issues weren’t in the same universe as what we just witnessed this year and WR at Texas isn’t in as bad of shape as the surl seems to think. We are also actively going after that caliber of RB. Cam Coleman or equivalent isn’t taking this team to the next level and would be a waste of resources. If we want to absolutely blow everyones budget expectations out of the water and go top tier across the board that would be cool too for sure.

It’s the lot in life of the smaller programs. You have a great season and your reward is your coach gets hired by a big fish, you get your brains beat in for the first round of the CFP, and your best players transfer out. What an incentive structure for excellence.

Idk if others may agree with me, but my opinion is that the NCAA should just create a new G5 subdivision. Division 1 would then be made up of FCS, FBS-G5, and FBS-P4.

FCS has their own playoffs and crowns their own national champion.

G5 has their own playoffs and crowns a national champion.

P4 had their own playoffs and national champion.

Take the G5 conferences champions plus 3 at larges, 8 team G5 playoff. Put the playoff games on weekdays in between P4 playoff games. People watch the FCS playoffs and would watch things like Tuesday MACtion just because we love football. A G5 playoff I bet would get some viewership and make some money. Could still incorporate bowl games by playing playoff games at the bowl sites closest to the higher seeds. This allows good G5 programs to actually play for a national championship. Given the widening gap in NIL/resources between G5 and P4, I think the days of seeing a top 5 Boise St, or Utah, etc are long in the past. Maybe we get a first round upset once a decade, but G5 schools in the playoffs with P4 schools will almost always be unwatchable blowouts and I don't think one would ever be able to win 4 games to win a national championship.

Also, if this structure came to fruition, I'd make an NCAA scheduling rule: every P4 school must schedule an OOC of at least one P4, one G4, then school's choice (another G4, FCS, whatever).

Texas needs both of those too.

And LB

And DL

And possibly a corner

And entirely new special teams

Lot of needs. Limited resources

I agree, not once did I say get Coleman or diva WR. All I stated is if we’re going all in it’s not going to be cheap

That was back in his OL playing days. He's lost all the weight in retirement. Pass

Screenshot_20251227_190453_Firefox Focus.jpg

Saw him in a movie a week or so ago. Looked like a completely different person. It took me a minute to recognize him.

I don’t see how anyone keeps up with all this shit. When is it all over… I’ll check back in then to see how it shakes out.

Wingo is our #1 WR. Let’s see if he’d be a number one on the 12 playoff teams…

Indiana no

Ohio state no, not even number 2

Georgia no

Tech no

Oregon no

Tech no

Aggie no

James Madison yes

Tulane yes

Alabama no

Oklahoma maybe

Ole Miss no

Wingo and Mosley are 2s with Mosley being a 3 on other team

Livingston is a 3-4

McCutcheon is a 4-5

OL issues need a complete overhaul but we also need a legit number 1 receiver.
