That's a problem at any school. You could make the same comment at TX. If Card is super successful it could scare off Murphy and make 2023 QB recruiting more difficult. The problem is exacerbated by the transfer portal. The flip side is if you are in need of a QB you may be able to find a really good one in the transfer portal.

If we do sure will be a lot of portal entrys. Plus I doubt if any spaces are from last years class.

You really can't see upto 12 players currently listed as possible portal entries? I can. I do believe like SHA that we will be above the 25. How far above i don't know. 3-4 o linemen, we don't currently have a TE unless I missed something, 2 or more wrs, and upto 3 dbs; furthermore if not more. Nothing wrong with what you said. Just believe we have a better staff and understanding of how to get to national championships.

All will be right in the UT world if Card is who we think he is, Murphy develops and Sark is able to pull in some Manning magic. At that point I would be happy they didn't get Ewers, (only if they get Arch). Get Ewers and they probably lose Murphy and Manning likely isn't on the table. I like the current path of the QB room. Did not like it in February, but now it looks extremely bright.

By my count, I think they take at least 7 more:
2 OL, 2 DB, 2 WR and 1 other (no clue, but if Perkins or Skinner want in then you take them).
I do find it weird that UT is dedicating a scholarship to a long snapper recruit. Any chance that is actually a PWO and not a scholarship? Not that a LS is not an important position.
With that said, I think the 85 limit is on the verge of being permanently raised to at least 90, imo.

The 25 limit is firm no amount of transfers will give more spaces. NCAA is talking about changing this to help in big numbers of portal entries.
Texas needs 3-4 more OL and 4-5 more DBS IMO there is not enough spaces for them.
Will read NCAA rules on this again and hpoe youall are righr.Roster is unbalanced right now. Sarks worry!

AscI understand it the spring enrollees can count against the previous year so the 25 is not as straightforward as it seems. I know the 2021 class only had 23 enrollees so we can take at least 27, maybe more if some of those 23 were assigned to the 2020 class.
I also wonder if in the NIL world we can attract PWO players that can potentially do better without a scholarship at a major program then they could do at a minor school with a scholarship.

Yes you can assign players to previous class.
21 last year 29 this year, However all transfersportal or Grad. count against 25 so last years shlps were taken up by transfers proably. Then there is 85 limit.
Time will tell see in Dec. PWO's would still fall under 85 limit.

IT reporting the staff reached out to ATH Dillon Bell of the Houston Kinkaid School recently.
He committed to Georgia in early August, and could play WR or LB.

That would be a solid win! TE room would be loaded! And Wiltfong has been negative about Texas for awhile now.

Is A Jones a TE /DE prospect same as Sanders? Either room is crowded.
