For me the Orlando/Beck media availability this week allowed a peak behind the curtain and goes a long way to explain a lot of personnel decisions.  Every player at the UT under this staff must earn its place on the field through assimilation into the Texas (Herman) culture and consistent...

Have not posted in a long time but look at this site pretty much daily as I value the opinions of the members here.  Not as fast paced as some but I appreciate the measured responses given by most here.  I always appreciate Daniel's analysis and insight.  Even throwing away the Maryland game I...

Thanks for the spot on analysis Daniel and Will!

I still love Casey Thompson and believe he stays.  Don't think he wouldn't  have competition to win the job at OU or any other P5 program.  It is the nature of competitive athletics.  The crucible of competition brings out the best in athletes and prepares them for the next level. Only hope...

Up until recently haven't paid much attention to how the whole rating thing worked.  This rivals/scout etc thing in many cases seem to be a case of the tail wagging the dog.   I always thought towards the end of his tenure, Mac Brown chased stars relying on the rating services rather than his...

Thanks Daniel.  Im glad to know we are still after him but had no idea he was being recruited so heavily. He seems to have that vision and feel for finding creases that you can't teach.  Not impressed at all with Alabama kid Joiner.  California kid I like better but still prefer Ingram.  Hope...

Anybody got any news on Keontay Ingram?  I hate to miss on this guy.  I think he could be underrated.  Makes a lot of his yards between the tackles.  Nobody seems to ever get a clean shot on him and he can make people miss in a phone booth.  Reminds me a little of Emmitt. Unsubstantiated rumor...

Had a great time at the spring game.  First time in DKR.  Impressed with the energy level and excitement surrounding game.  Great environment for recruits.  Impressed with Shane and saw flashes from Sam when he had even a semblance of a clean pocket. Colin Johnson is a beast.  NFL will  be...

Thanks so much drgilbert!  That covers all the bases.  Excited to be in Austin tomorrow for pre-game activities and will definitely check out Fanfest Saturday before Spring game.

Thanks so much noonan05.  I will definitely try out some BBQ.  I hear the craft beer is also great.  Haven't had the pleasure of traveling to Australia but is definitely a bucket list item for me.

Excited to be coming to the spring game on the 15th with my 24 year old son who despite growing up in Louisiana is a lifelong longhorn fan.  Would appreciate anyone that could help with a few questions.  Is this an open game or does it require tickets?  Is seating assigned or first come first...

Man I am excited about the possibility of a Casey Thompson commit. He checks all the boxes for me.  I love his film.  Im sure not a QB guru but he looks like a perfect fit for what the Longhorns are trying to do with this offense.  Game film is much more impressive to me than Justin Rogers...

Not a Physician but after practicing Physical Therapy for 35 years maybe I can shed a little light.   First:  Ligamentous injuries to the ankle primarily involve those that connect the tibia (shinbone), fibula(bone on outside of leg) and the talus( the top bone of the foot that the tibia and...

I'm just glad we are worried about battling for recruits with Alabama rather than Arizona.

You guys are great.  Like having longhorn wikipedia. Did Texas actually offer?  I thought they did but went back and saw on 24/7 that he had been "contacted" by multiple programs including Texas.  Daniel thanks so much for all the good work you do on this site.

What Pagano would bring to Texas in leadership, helping Herman in establishing a culture of excellence could be bigger than his physical gifts in my opinion.  Not sure why he's leaving but based on Tom Hermans relationship with the Clemson coaches in past (Clemson offensive coaches met with...

Really excited about the buzz and positive vibe we are hearing from recruits building around this junior day. ( as compared to surprising lack of it for 2016 class recruiting weekends etc)  Also sensing Herman is making strides in winning "buy in" from current players as evidenced by positive...

Although the discussion about Casey Horny on this board is being tried in the court of public opinion rather than the court of law it basically comes down to  Innocent until proven guilty or Guilty and sentenced because it seems logical that as a coach in his position he had to know all about...

The Blake Nevins preferred walk on is very interesting. Reported to be smart and great kid.  6'4" Basketball player (sophomore and junior) who came out for football in senior year and managed to win QB spot at Cy Ranch.  Athletic with great feet as expected for BB player.  Didn't have great...

Have to love the fact that this kid from the very beginning had a love for Texas football.  Also really liked the way he handled his whole recruitment process.  Always showing respect and appreciation for all schools recruiting him.  A contrast to Chaisson's which always seemed a little too self...
