Livingstone has limitations but he provides that security blanket along the sideline. No one else we have can do that and it showed all season.This isn't hard to figure out. He knows he's about to lose playing time.

22 hours ago22 hr 1 minute ago, satyanash said:Jettisoning multiple starting WRs with drop issues to land an elite #1 WR talent (albeit one who also has drop issues).Bold move, let's see if it pays off.Sark is either going to hit big, next season, or retaining Flood, some of these allocation decisions, and his stubbornness on the offensive side of the ball are going to do him in. Anything beyond a playoff run next season is inexcusable.
22 hours ago22 hr Just now, CockadoodleHorn said:I thought I heard during the bama game that he said he was coming backCorrect. Ryan Williams had one of those "announcing my return" non-update updates that are so annoying to see earlier this week.

22 hours ago22 hr The Livingstone thing feels offensive in a way that other portal entries haven't. Edited 22 hours ago22 hr by skipmcgee
22 hours ago22 hr This reaction to Livingstone transferring is comical. I thought y’all didn’t care about losing marginal talent. Livingstone had all season to prove his spot should be solidified. He didn’t do that.
22 hours ago22 hr 1 minute ago, Laxtonto said:A 3 outside WR rotation of Wingo, Coleman, and Moseley would be damn salty for a leveled up Arch in his NFL audition and heisman favorite season. Arch and Sark cutting out Arch's buddy and roommate to bring in a more talented mercenary is some football game of thrones shit. Provided they're still buddies and Arch didn't bang Livingstone's hoe or something.

22 hours ago22 hr Feels entirely reasonable to me to bet on giving Lockett/Ffrench/Bishop the reps and opportunity to be major contributors instead of stuffing them in the depth chart

Maybe we will soon find out that Livingstone was also making absurdly unrealistic asks but I highly doubt it. Livingstone is also a fairly average outside WR. Wisner was considerably below average by every objective measure.

As his team got demolished by 35 points and only scored a FG. Those hillbillies can keep him

21 hours ago21 hr 5 minutes ago, SarkAfterDark said:This reaction to Livingstone transferring is comical. I thought y’all didn’t care about losing marginal talent. Livingstone had all season to prove his spot should be solidified. He didn’t do that.It feels more personal because he was on record of being all burnt orange from birth and dreaming of being a Horn. Then gets his dream, exceeds expectations in his 2nd year, and gets pushed out for a mercenary. Would be like Ehlinger getting pushed out for Kyler Murray if the portal existed back then. Would be understandable from a talent perspective, but just feel very very wrong. It's going to hit the emotions of fans.
21 hours ago21 hr Maybe—just maybe—we really aren't fucking around.Lefau was a nice linebacker, sure, but was he truly a difference maker? Ty'Anthony Smith seems to have shown his class in far less time. Moore and Jagger were B- or B receivers but they ain't winning big games for you. Wisner had some good stretches against rivals but he was nothing special. He was outshined by Clark, who is just now returning from injury, in the bowl game. So far Texas is losing some nice players, but not difference makers. Maybe the money sees what we all see. Arch and Simmons are generational players, and we've got a legitimate chance to run the table next year if we build a complete roster around them in their final years. The moves I've seen so far this offseason suggest that Texas is going to pay difference makers. And they're going to let good players walk with the intent finding great replacements. Still, it's been fun to watch the bed-wetting the last couple of weeks.

21 hours ago21 hr Popular Post Livingstone was pretty reliable all year and just a RS Freshman… He’s going to develop into a solid player. This stings.
21 hours ago21 hr Just now, Lonestar88 said:Yeah, the logic people have used all week to not care about Wisner leaving absolutely applies to Livingstone too.Does it? Wisner left because we weren't going to pay him a million dollars. This doesn't sound like a "Texas wouldn't meet Jaggerson's $$ demands" deal.
21 hours ago21 hr The every year free agency thing sucks, profoundly. Part of the charm of CFB was having guys like Livingstone on the team come up big in dumb moments - I will never forget the zombie bump of the Jake Oliver recruiting thread in 2016.

21 hours ago21 hr 37 minutes ago, Js1 said:Don’t like thatIf we can land Coleman, which honestly may be in the works, it'll work itself out. But yeah, this is not great by any measure. I guess ur frees up a scholarship for a better WR, but damn we are thing. He plays the X and all we have there is WIngo and Lockett. Maybe Terry can play if, but he's working out at RB, so we have to hit the portal. Coleman seems like the choice so far. He's all about money as a mercenary, and I'm fine with it. We need more names, tho.

21 hours ago21 hr Has to be a way to hold on to the guys that bleed orange though. Not only that - Livingstone showed a ton of promise and was making plays early in the year when everyone else was terrible.
21 hours ago21 hr Arch's roommate leaving? Dayum. Arch is going to have to make new friends on the team.

21 hours ago21 hr Portal, Wingo (maybe), MosleyMcCutcheon, Ffrench, Lockett, LivingstoneThen three true freshmen. That would have been 10. And those first six are all gonna play a bunch, and so is Bishop. I suppose it makes more sense if you think about it in a "PL wasn't going to even be in the two-deep" sort of way.
