January 15Jan 15 If Campbell declares he has some shitty advisors in his head. He is not a draft pick at this time. Take the pancake factory money and anything else he can get here.

Take the pancake factory money and anything else he can get here. I think he’s a draft pick on physical traits alone but like ass end of the draft- way deep. It’s possible he wouldn’t get drafted but I’d be surprised if it was off the board completely. He should come back. Edited January 15Jan 15 by Wulaw Horn
January 15Jan 15 I had extremely high expectations for Campbell. Second only to Banks on the OL. He's been a pretty good guard but not overwhelmingly so, to my non-coaching eye. Would love to see him come back and lead this next wave of road graders and improve his own draft stock.
January 15Jan 15 2nd portal window will be huge for us. Also if Ryan Day heads to the NFL, that could be big….you know if true

Just watch Stafford at his age outside of the pocket extending plays. Quinn is a statue compared to them, especially in college. Stafford is your closest comp to him but Stafford has a much better arm than Quinn Mahomes had 800+ rushers yards and 20+ rushing touchdowns in college Baker had 1000+ rushing yards and 20+ touchdowns in college You're not trying to, but you're disproving your point. Mayfield and Mahommes didn't win in college. (Yes. I would like Mahommes in the Sark offense.)

Texas is a have, not a have-not, but it isn't the only one and a few are bigger. If Oregon or Michigan or Ohio State wants to turn everyone else, including Texas, into a developmental school, then there's no recourse on our end. Dell, Hildebrandt and others with 11 figures are not participating with Texas. Guys like them or with even more money than them are playing roles for other groups. We cannot crowdsource our way out of that problem. So, we're just "a" swinging dick now? Edited January 15Jan 15 by Slacks F this keyboard

Feel free to be less passive aggressive and put into sharp relief for the board those moments where I ever dismissed Oregon or Ohio State as threats to anyone’s roster due to NIL, including Texas. Michigan’s backing from Ellison is new, the other two aren’t. So “now”? No. Always has been the case.

I typically practice restraint when it comes to criticizing players unless it’s an obvious lack of effort situation. I know you’re part of the “white skill players can’t make it at this level” group, but some of us hold out for development. I get it, you are projecting your own athletic failures on these white guys, it’s natural.

You still have time to say “I got out over my skis and talked shit when I had no basis to do so, my bad. “ but you’re trending towards just being someone who needs to be condescending but has no history to support the rest of us being willing to let you pull that bullshit.
