    Moore’s camp has told Bobby Burton that Trey Moore is returning to Texas. Nothing set in stone, but that would be a big deal, IMO.

Aggies should have got their licks in when they could. If this game is scheduled for daytime, A&M will protest.

But we had to play there at night.

Damn. Was really expecting him to go with Texas. He would have been perfect as the next speed WR for Sark.

When the headline of a portal transfer is their recruiting ranking two cycles ago and nothing about on field production, you're adding a bust 95% of the time who won't ever contribute.

ETA Regarding Singleton:

I thought the word was that he didn't mesh well when he visited. I got the impression that the cooling was mutual.

That Facebook account just spams the most random shit.  Its probably some AI bot farming clicks.

My favorite thing from it is how we got a commit flip from a 7 ft tall receiver that was committed to Auburn haha.

Auburn should be pretty salty next season. Poor Aggy.

Talent has rarely ever been auburns issue. They still need a qb and a better scheme to utilize their skill talent. They also have culture issues.

Why? There was zero smoke that he was breaking our way after his visit.

Yeah, it was pretty obvious that something happened on the visit. 

 

Honorable mention freshman AA team in 2023. Only made 6 starts this year due to injury. 6’4 305 is the right size

I imagine the coaches do not want players that are coming here strictly for NIL, the Bear Alexander types.  Also, if the rumored 7 figure ask is true, I find it hard to believe they will shell out that much when WR is not the biggest need.  That number may be higher than what we paid Worthy, Mitchell, Bond and I'm not sure Singleton is that talent level even if he has the speed.  Considering we have Moore, Wingo, Butler, Livingstone, the incoming freshman, we can probably find a WR that will cost a lot less and get the same type of production.  Shit for 7 figures, get me the Clemson WRs instead.

He fits the profile from experience and size. I imagine he will get a look.

If you return Moore and Wingo and have two five star freshman coming in, it has to be a pretty special player to demand that kind of NIL. If we just wanted another experienced receiver there are plenty of good ones out there like Malachi Fields that would cost a lot less.

My guess is that he led with NIL demands.

Texas is still in the running for a National Championship this season, but that doesn't mean the work behind the scenes for 2025 is slowing down.

Of course, the Longhorns are mighty thin on the defensive line for the upcoming season with just 86 snaps on the roster at the moment. The addition of Purdue DL Cole Brevard will help, but Texas is going to need a few more bodies out of the portal to get the 2025 roster to where it needs to be come SEC play.

A look at some interesting options in the portal at the moment:

***

Iowa State DL Tyler Onyedim

6'4"

295 pounds

Redshirt Junior

1,194 career snaps

The former Iowa State Cyclone is one that OTF believes Texas has interest in at the moment. Onyedim has been a contributor for Iowa State over the last three seasons with 21 starts in the past two seasons. Originally a native of Richmond, Texas, it would not be too surprising to see a return to the Lone Star State for a fifth season of college football for Onyedim.

 

Utah DL Keanu Tanuvasa

6'4"

301 pounds

Redshirt sophomore

973 career snaps

Tanuvasa entered the portal Monday morning and immediately hit some of they criteria points of recent Texas DL additions. At Utah, Tanuvasa started 19 games over the last two seasons where 799 of his snaps came over the B-Gap or as a 3-tech. Interesting option there.

 

Washington State DL David Gusta

6'3"

302 pounds

Redshirt Junior

1,253 career snaps

Gusta is a pass-rushing specialist form the interior. Pro Football Focus had him ranked as the 3rd highest rated pass rusher among all Power Four interior defensive linemen for the 2024 season. With 28 QB pressures and 11.3% win rate, it is easy to see why that rating is where it is. Really intriguing piece in the portal at the moment. 

 

Wisconsin DL James Thompson Jr.

6'5"

290 pounds

Redshirt Senior

932 careers snaps

Texas has yet to show interest in the former Wisconsin DL who played a bit more of the 5-tech look for the Badgers. Thompson has offers and visits set for Tennessee, Texas A&M, Oklahoma and several others at the moment. One hiccup here is the redshirt senior played in just one game in 2024 due to injury.

 

North Carolina DL Travis Shaw

6'5"

330 pounds

Junior

590 career snaps

Shaw was a solid reserve piece for North Carolina over the last three seasons. He was not credited with a start over his three years in Chapel Hill, but he does have notable size for a guy with 83% of his snaps coming as a 3-tech.

When he entered it was alleged that it was Georgia that lured him to the portal. There was a rumor that he had ridiculous NIL request to them and they said no thank you.

M'pemba was one of the guys that was busted for reckless driving, right?  Doesn't look like he played at all this year. Seems like they're picking up more bread

Wonder if he can beat Denver Harris’ time in the garage hot lap.

They loaded up on bread last year. Why change?

Lefau, Nansen and Langi to the courtesy phone with Tanuvasa. I think Langi isn’t on staff and is just a consultant but surely he can put in a good word. Polynesian ties need to be on deck.

M'Pemba was cited for driving 88 in a 55MPH zone I believe. He was a reserve with 6 tackles over 15 games played in the last 2 years.

Maybe he’ll demand a driver like Micah Hudson

Bobby is getting the papers getting the papers

So aggy purged the roster of headcases and players with questionable character under Jimbo.  Elko is changing the culture folks!  Lmao, that lasted a few months.  I see they are back to taking players that were basically told to fuck off by their current teams in Micah Hudson, Julian Humphrey and now the more recent UGA edge.

Sure seems like aggy is taking a lot of players without proven production. 

Then they'll fit right in.

Craver seems decent, but will be wasted in Kleins offense.  The Colorado (when healthy) and the Florida EDGE guy may be decent rotation guys.  The rest of the takes are bread.

Anyone smarter than me able to compare the PFF of the available DT's in the portal? My initial instinct is the Utah and ISU tackles, with a must-get designation on the Clemson tackle if he actually enters. would love to hear other perspectives.

Good for him. Maybe they can count his 2 years in Austin as his mission.

Certainly beats the Crying Game, which is the direction this thread has been going over the last few weeks.

That’s how you know we’re back in the early 2000’s talent wise. 
 

we lost Singleton the #1 player in the portal and not a lot of ppl even cared cause we have so much talent specially in the WR room

4 five stars (Wingo, French, Lockett, Terry?),

4 four Stars (Moore, Butler, McCutcheon, Niblett,) and

Livingston who according to reports has been balling) and we still don’t know what Golden will do, along with Arch at QB. 

I think we’ll be okay
