When I read the McDonald headline I just assumed he was transferring or leaving. I had to do a double take when it said he was returning. Glad he is back! 

Yeah, Jelani has a shot to have an awesome season in 2026 !! 🤘

I love Wisner, but if Baxter hadn’t been made of glass he likely would have been a backup his entire time here. He was fun when he was on! But he was also very streaky.

I’m going to need to hear from the other 23 Asians before weighing in with a comment.

Before Jax St he was at TCU and didn’t do much of anything. So did he get better or did the competition get easier. Either way he isn’t a sure thing like most are making him out to be. 

He is a very good back.

Asking for $1m despite having 1,700 career rushing yards is also bitchmade

Would think the alumni made more than 1 mm on the OU and aTm games. But guessing we have some badass in the pipeline, and another about to get here.

If he ever learned to play wr…what a hell of a statement. I get there’s a small sliver of upside to him but “we’re Texas” counts for rb but not wr? If we are going to magically pull out our wallets and completely fix the rb room then I don’t think it’s a stretch to tamper a wr to the portal that already knows how to play wr. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills saying we just need a wr1 that knows how to play wr. What a strange world. 

Wingo is (right now, 2 seasons in) a better WR with better upside than Wisner (right now 3 seasons) ever has been an RB at Texas.

This. I bet we already have one or two lined up, and if I had to make a guess, one of them is in the CFP as we speak. Maybe it's hope, I dunno, but I want to believe at least one will be Kewan Lacy. I'll be happy with Lacy or Baugh, or shit, both. We can use both to save mikeage for them going to the draft.

Absolutely agree 100%. He went from 472 receiving yards as a true frosh with 5 TD's to (currently, he'll add more in the bowl game) to 770 receiving yards. That's over 300 more yards. He's gotten much better. He'll get over 800 by the time the year is over. 

Wisner went from barely cracking 1, 065 yards in 115-16 games to almost cut in half to 600 yards. He only had exactly one 100 yrd rushing game, and that was against aggy in the last game. One. He almost had two more against ou and fOSU. Yeah, that ain't gonna cut it, especially with just 3 TD's rushing and 1 receiving.

Maybe Cooper can push for PT too…

So... This season's rushing woes are now a Wisner issue and not a gaping hole at Left Guard issue?

Y'all some woes.

He is a very good back at the Jax St level. He was not a very good back at a P5 school(TCU). I’d take a flier on him as the second RB take out of the portal but not as RB1. Too much of a gamble.

Oh, for sure. He's a dude that people are sleeping on. Not to mention we may also have found a spot for Michael Terry in the back field. So we have Cooper, (maybe) Terry, Simon, Clark, and a transfer or two. It's not as dire as we first thought. Sure, they're young, but that's what the transfer(s) are for. We also saw Sark finally get creative and use Townsend back there like I've always wanted, so we have dudes that are big and strong. Cooper isn't a small guy, either. He's like 6'1 205 lbs and he won the prestigious Nat Moore trophy for the best player to step on the field in florida, I believe. He won't be a RS, he'll for sure play if he's not hurt. You don't sit a beast like him.

It's both, honestly. Wisner did some freaky jump cuts, but yeah, our LG was beyond abysmal. There really are no words to describe how bad it was. But, Wisner also had the same issues running behind Campbell, too. It was just not good. Wisner isn't a RB1, but I also don't see anyone in the country outside of maybe 3-4 RB'S that could have made chicken salad out of chicken shit from our line.

I wouldn't even bother taking him period. He's bad at the highest level, which we could use a scholarship on a RB that can average more than 3.9 ypc. Even Wisner averaged 4.6, and he's not even close to being RB1.

A million bucks can buy two Wisners. I could get you a Wisner by 3pm.

A million dollars could quite literally buy you 10 running backs the equivalent of Wisner.
