@SAH...glad you're back and hope 2024 has started off well for you and your family. Still playing golf? How's the golf simulator holding up? I've have to take it easy, I was swinging too much and got a terrible case of tennis elbow. The wife's game has been coming along nicely.

Not a huge surprise. He wants more of a passing offense. Texas really need to replace their WRs with him and Wingo.
He’s probably looking to get 1000 yards opposed to his 600. He said Deboer called him and he didn’t call him back. Don’t know the point of mentioning that.

Alabama had a TE enter portal today. He’s pretty good, I could see him at Texas. Amari Niblack
Don’t really blame him, Milroe didnt see him wide open several times. Plus, we have a few pushing him.
Hope this works out for Texas better than last 2 busts. Agiye Hall and Billingsly.

Sark had to take chances back then, he can be more selective now.

They had been on the TE all year. Right after the Texas loss he was dancing on his social media, it didn’t go over well.
Sometimes you never really know the internal dynamics. Especially between QB and receivers.

He’s pretty good. He’s no Bo Davis, who I wanted back. But he’s an LSU guy, I understand that.

Isaiah Bond will likely be WR1. I thought he was good this year for Bama, but I really like his "business" mindset coming in. Losing X, AD, and Sanders (TE) is huge for Texas, but the new guys and young guys are going to make Texas elite at the WR position next year. There's an Oregon State guy, WR Silas Bolden, who visited this weekend and is likely to sign, as well.

Really need to get that DL coach hired quickly. I read that an early Texas signee 4-star DT D'Antre Robinson is asking for his LOI release. Presumably because he wanted to play for Bo Davis.

They picked up two quality WRs in the portal, Golden and now Bond. I just hope they don't scare off the young wide receivers. Keeping everybody happy is the hard part.

Texas has actually done a really good job filling positions of need, especially getting speed in the secondary.

Today's college football landscape probably had something do with Sabans retirement..... I dont like it, I don't like it at all.

A few weeks ago I saw a model out there for teams to pay players, in an effort to have some sort of system. The school would have to have a certain financial minimum.
The guy explaining it said it would eliminate half of BIG12. You were really down to 40-50 programs.
To be fair, you pay each scholarship kid 100k a year. That’s 8.5 million a year Thats less than most top coaches make a year.

In the end, it’s the fans who attend games that pay for all of this. Many of the Texas games this year cost almost as much as an NFL game to attend.
