    2026 PORTAL

    I believe almost all of those schools have a new head coach, which makes sense. The one exception that jumps out at me is Colorado, probably not a good sign for Deion, or Colorado moving forward.

    Time will tell. Obviously Texas thinks he has at least a reasonable chance, otherwise they wouldn't have offered.

    2026 PORTAL

    It seems like all of the programs are currently spending big on rosters and coaching staffs to stay relevant. You would think that schools would need to mostly balance their budgets, so something needs to give... eventually. Schools that can't keep up with the arms race will not be able to...

    Non-SEC Football

    A pathetic schedule may be useful for making the playoffs. Seems many recruits don't care about SEC/B1G exposure. Time will tell what their ceiling is.

    Non-SEC Football

    It will be interesting to see if the NCAA does anything. If not then lots of other athletes may opt out of classes, and the whole premise of student athletes disappears.

    Interesting, I read 48 hours. Time will tell, hopefully it gets resolved quickly.

    2026 PORTAL

    Just remembered that a school has up to 48 hours from when the paper work is submitted to actually put the player in the portal. If my understanding is correct, then we will know if anyone else is leaving by tomorrow.

    2026 PORTAL

    The transfer portal is now closed for entry, so we shouldn't expect anymore players leaving Texas. The window is still open for playoff teams. Players in the portal can still accept offers, even though the portal window is "closed". The NCAA has eliminated the spring transfer portal, so all of...

    I think that was me. I didn't take your disagreeing with my posts personally, so no apologies needed, but thanks

    When you look at all these huge numbers, it's easy to believe the 40+million number being claimed for the Texas roster. This also makes you understand that the money ball aspect of roster management is crucial. I guess each team needs to figure out a budget for each position group. It's...

    2026 PORTAL

    Goosby returning is obviously huge. Since there was no big built up, and since it doesn't show up in any recruiting or transfer rankings it's easy to overlook. I guess the same could be said about Arch, but since nobody paying attention expected him to enter the draft, and him being the face of...

    FWIW, we now have the number one combined incoming class on 247sports.com

    2026 PORTAL

    Since I don't have access to the portal I have to depend on what's being reported. In both cases the articles clearly states that the player has removed his name from the portal. Again it could be that the reporting is wrong, but without a way to verify or refute the information I'm going to...

    2026 PORTAL

    That's good, but yet another example of Sark going back on his assertion that he won't take players back once they enter the portal. I guess the policy is if you enter the portal we may or may not allow you to return, Obviously not a real policy.

    2026 PORTAL

    I'm not sure if you can have multi year deals with performance clauses, but it would add some sanity, to an out of control situation. It makes no sense to pay a 5 star guy like Ffrench and work on development, only to have him leave before contributing anything. Unless you can get a long...

    Interesting. I would think we would have been better off taking more development high school players that would take up minimal NIL. Kind of like prefered walk ons but with scholarships.

    2026 PORTAL

    Some of the departures are certainly troubling. If the media is to be believed, nobody has more NIL then Texas. Hopefully the staff is accurately assessing the value of the current roster, and is not overspending on it. Hopefully once the dust settles we will end up being a big portal winner.

    Maybe the article is wrong? But it indicates that he withdrew his name from the portal.
