  1. The stupid is contagious here. It’s insane. We have seen, from prior years!, that the final enrollment date, @JesusSweatDuck , for a semester does not matter. There are exceptions. So why create a false premise? Does it move the conversation forward? As to the NFL roster or practice stuff, most of that was discussed in the offseason and preseason threads on the football board, and many of us here were not in favor of it. It wasn’t discussed in any depth on the $9.95er forum and BO&W is being disingenuous with his bullshit fucking claims otherwise. The idea he’s conveying in his comments right now is that he gets it and we’re otherwise in fantasyland does not deserve any further oxygen. I’m convinced he posts while wearing clown makeup. The continued panicking over OL depth here is nauseating. Texas is still working on some big answers to their rotation and then will sign, as with other positions, guys who can fill in the roster. Barring catastrophe for any team, no one is reaching regularly into their 3 deep for help at any position, OL and otherwise. This stupid fucking lamentation that Texas should have starter quality experience and depth behind, you know, the starters, is ridiculous and some sort of new portal horror porn kink for a bunch of you guys coming off as rubes. Right here in this thread a new phenomenon in CFB fandom can be witnessed. People are now panicking when the concept of playing a younger player to replace a starter is floated. New starters developed on the roster after being recruited to the school is how starting talent has been replaced for 150 fucking years. Now? Unacceptable. No talent recruited into the program can become a starter. If Texas loses a starter to the NFL, by gawd, he better be replaced from the portal with proven starter talent from the P4. If that isn’t the case, then Texas doesn’t give a fuck about winning and is happy being mediocre. Why even have a recruiting board with this level of hivemind idiotic thinking?
  2. Apparently someone we are looking at.
  3. I'm guessing he was one of the visitors that they absolutely did not want being disclosed anywhere until the deal was done. This dude must have gotten to ATM and thought:
  4. Holy shit, that's my nephew. His dad is an aggie and mom is an A&M professor. He's a sr in HS now and going to A&M next year. I tried to save him but it was an uphill battle to say the least.
  5. Jonte Newman committed to us.
  6. Heading into this season, one of the big lamentations about the roster was that Flood hadn't taken enough OTs in the last few classes. I am not being critical of that take with this post, just pointing out that had Texas initially signed Newman, there wouldn't have been as much whining when Cojoe went down. Now Texas lands him and no one seems to give a shit and generally just assumes he'll vanish into the portal next cycle. Maybe that's the case, or maybe they still want to develop key roles inside of the org rather than just rely solely on the portal to fill needs when guys graduate or move on. One thing is likely - Texas won't have to push him to take a big pay cut after next season. They're starting low, so if they see development they like, he can certainly get a raise without having to bail. I feel like someone else is going to get that same trade with a few of the guys we didn't want to leave like Brooks and UK with Barnes.

  15. Bozo, did you forget who you are talking to, and what color I am my friend? You might as well be trying to teach me the effects of lotion and how important it is for me to use it only a daily basis. Of course I know where he was standing, it's historical significance, and what he was trying to say. Before you knew what racism was I was already dealing with it. I was 8 and my brother was 5. My dad took us to the mall. There was a small rv parked in the middle. Me and my lil bro went in there to check it out and the guy showing it literally picked my 5 year old brother up and threw him out while saying, "get out of here little ni**er". My dad knocked his ass out and we hustled out of there. Walking home from school somebody threw a half full slurpie from a moving car, hitting me in the face while they screamed the N word. That's how it was if you were black back in the era you are talking about. So don't tell me whether it was more open or not. You weren't the one getting harassed by law enforcement. You weren't the one getting called racial slurs. All older black people know where Reagan kicked off his campaign and the significance of it. Growing up black you were taught to drive a little further to an inhabited area if you ever got stopped. Keep your head down if ever law enforcement is talking to you and yes sir mo sir. Older black people taught you what everything meant and gave you the game to survive. We knew what was going on because if you weren't aware it could be your life. I said all that to say this. Reagan was working the Southern Strategy by starting his campaign at the Neshoba County Fair. It was a political move to win the south. It was a calculated dogwhistle devised by campaign strategist Lee Atwater. In 1973 Trump was being sued for not renting to blacks. In 1989 he took out ads calling for the death penalty of the Central Park 5. Trump's attacks on Obama's intelligence and citizenship. For decades Trump has been talking about Eugenics and Racehorse Theory. They are sending us drug dealers and rapists. They are eating the cats and dogs. Fine people on both sides. They are poisoning the blood of the country. Trump was a Nazi and Fascist long before politics. He isn't dog whistling for votes, or dog whistling at all. These are his actual beliefs said loud and proud. He truly wants minorities eradicated, which is why a Nazi like Joseph Goebbels, whoops, I mean Stephen Miller, not only gravitated to him, but was allowed in his cabinet. Twice! For the first time in our history we have a Fascist government with Nazis in our cabinet and a dictator as a President, but you want us to believe it's always been like this. Come on bro. We had a full on Insurrection on January 6th 2021. If you voted for this, which in my opinion, is the worst moment in our history as a country, you are not redeemable. I say this as a friend and an ally.
  16. He must be a karate man.
  17. Can you cite a single team that has quality, starter level quality depth across their roster?

  19. I think the thread is super interested in a thought exercise on exactly how, soup to nuts from ground up, BurntOrange&White, aka Blumpkinator Dong, would build his college football roster form the ground up. Lets say with Texas's resources. Go ahead, lay it all out for us. Number of kids per year recruited out of HS, the # of stars for each of those kids, number of roster spots overall, number of roster spots assigned to each position, expected player churn and portal retention each year, average salary of each position, # of scholarship players, number of PAID scholarship players, go on, lay it all out for us, guy who has it all figured out. Lets say your Total Budget is 50 million dollars a year. Come on, show us all how Texas should be doing it. We all know you're incapable, unwilling, and likely both, to actually take the time to lay out a position and defend it. Especially when it requires thought, time, and effort. But prove me wrong, chooch. Show us you're not a one trick pony that exists entirely to wail and moan on the internet as an unintentional billboard of the failures of public education. I really, really hope that "portal horror porn kink" catches on and has staying power. It's not so much the hive mind as it's that you're too stupid to realize that you're not smart, you have bad takes. But instead of listening and reading what other people post, maybe learn and consider different opinions and topics on the subject, you just instead embody the endless confidence that comes with the stupid and shout and scream your opinions to anyone that will listen. Rarely right, always certain.
  20. He's not costing much and Texas was interested in him last cycle when chose ATM. Dude apparently didn't like it there.

    He’s done a lot of unintentional hilarious shit, but not understanding why doctors keep making him take cognitive tests might be at the top. Does he think they just like watching him draw clocks and shit? “Watch this dude pick out the cartoon horse. Fucking amazing. Let’s do it again next week just because it’s so fucking awesome.”
  25. The college football transition to the internet age was awesome. There was a recruit whose bio in the annual Athlon season preview magazine mentioned that he was in the Huckleberry Top 75 which was just a terribly formatted page I had on Hornfans that was a weighted composite of top Texas recruit lists. Obviously I should sue 247 for IP infringement.
  26. It's called menstruation.

    How about fuck you, man?
  28. This meme is now a bit less funny than it was a week ago.
  29. I appreciate you and commend you for your strong belief in that some of those people can be redeemed. I guess my tank for that his zero long ago. We talk about the Southern Strategy that started with Goldwater then Reagan perfected it. But as far as black people are concerned there was always a "Southern Strategy". Long before the R's were doing it the D's were doing it. What do you think FDR was doing with redlining and Restrictive Covenants being built into the FHA? Black people were excluded from the original 1935 Social Security Act. Black people were excluded from getting subsidies in the 1933 Agriculture Adjustment Act. All done to appease the south. Reagan was just another name in a long list of political leadership using the mistreatment of our community to gain or stay in power. Rinse and fucking repeat. Nothing has changed there. What has changed is the DOJ being openly partisan, being a weapon for, and answering directly to POTUS. People attacking the Capitol at the direction of POTUS. The Supreme Court giving POTUS unlimited power. Congress protecting POTUS on multiple front on issues that warrant immediate removal from office. POTUS attacking media and threatening them through the FCC. The executive branch completely ignoring our Constitution at every turn. The Executive branch creating it's own paramilitary to punish and intimidate the populace. All of these things are unprecedented, and a huge percentage of the populace is all for it. Maybe I'm just a little too cynical. Maybe I just don't have the energy to believe in people anymore.
  30. And horndfl said ... Nothing, you idiots. horndfl's dead, he's locked in my basement.
  31. A big aggy fan who posts in a lot of the college football groups as well as through his own profile. Also a rapper. See another recent example:
  32. It’s funny, I started browsing on Longhorn message boards when I was in the 9th grade in 2003. 20+ years later and I’m still one of the younger ones.
  33. Specifically to Cam, he fell like a rock due to a medical. A knee issue that was never going to get better. Cam's archetype gets overdrafted all the time Brugler is ahead of the curve on the draft stuff, and he's the best sourced in the industry outside of DJ, and DJ doesn't put stuff out until later. If you follow draft stuff, you're an idiot if you don't put stock in what he's saying because he gets a few things wrong in an industry where everyone is frequently wrong
  34. I’ll have to make this a project for the spring after all the portal dust has settled, but there is almost no way the big boy programs are going to be carrying 16+ scholarship OL in this era unless the bottom couple spots are occupied by Max Merril types. You want to head into a season with 8 guys who can play in a pinch. Any team in college football who has to go past that number is screwed. Like a NFL team who loses 2-3 OL starters is likely screwed regardless of who is on the practice squad or waiver wire. So we have 3 starters returning + Oregon State guy (you telling me this guy can’t go out there and do something similar to what Cole Hutson did for 4 years? Hutson was our worst starter). I would hope that Cojoe and Chatman could be included in the 8 considering they’ve been in the program for 4 years. If not, why are they still here? So that leaves 2 spots to fill in the next few weeks that can be added to the circle of trust. Anything after that is a bonus.

    Where's his GoFundMe link? I will happily donate
  36. Here I sit in a big empty house as I type this getting it ready to put on the market. Moved my ladies to a blue state at the beginning of the school year. I will be up there permanently in 10 days. When I was younger and studied the Holocaust, I always marveled at all the warning signs that the Jews ignored. I told myself if I ever found myself in that situation I would not ignore those signs. So we are out of Texas and have ourselves positioned to jet when it hits the fan. I firmly believe we are about to repeat an ugly stretch of history that nobody thought we would ever see again. Being one of the ethnicities that would be headed for the trains, I am not going to stay around to see what happens. When they turn towards black people I'm out, and we are close to that now.
  37. Mitch McConnell can suck it. He had his chance to end this whole nightmare and instead he played with fire
  38. If you were not on message boards fully engaging in the Simms vs Applewhite culture war, are you a real Texas fan? The only thing that stopped me from posting more then was my bad modem connection.
