No sunshine. Want!
 
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.
Well hold.be around
Sprague turned down an offer from Texas that was significantly higher than the one he took at Michigan. So whaddaya do about that?

Per OTF, Texas is going with a reduced roster this year, figuring to cut out waste and increase their portal financial offers. Texas will, by design, go with a roster of 79 to 80 players.

Bo Barnes, for example, hardly ever played. Why pay starter money to someone who has played so little? There's some of that going on elsewhere, too.
True Barnes played little but when got chance in Citrus,looked good
Probably had increased role in 2026,maybe started.We didn't have e enough backers in Citrus,Rubell played LB. Lost Lafau to portal, Trey Moore to NFL. How do know about French ,you know Sark strict bout circle of trust. We might be alright but OTF pumped us up.
 
aggy mod at 2 p.m.

"I'd expect to hear some Texas momentum with Coleman soon, if it hasn't started already. The phone call I just got indicated the Longhorns have made a big swing—perhaps enabled by some of the outgoing players coming off the books. If the pick were to happen right now, my contact thinks it would be Texas. It's beginning to make the rounds."
 
He is on campus right now with his parents. Best LB in the portal, IMO. He has a "no contact" tag.

Alabama WR Isaiah Horton has entered the portal.

Former OU RB Taylor Tatum committed to Michigan.

Former Gator DJ Lagway committed to Baylor.

Alabama DL Kelby Collins has entered the portal.
 
Per Bleacher Report, Brendan Sorsby was offered a $3.5 million NIL deal by LSU through a partner, Yahoo Sports.

No idea what Tech offered.
 
Sark has won double-digit games each of the past three years. Been in the CFP twice and should have been in this year. I think he probably knows what he's doing, so just relax and let him build the roster. Y'all looking at Texas Tech portal gets like it's some great coup. Dudes from Kansas State and Wake Forest. Their best portal get is a QB that could not carry Arch's jock. The OL that Texas will get are probably still playing. Relax and let it play out. And pray for Jordan Shipley.
color me skeptical at this moment
 
What made you decide that we're not? We offered the Michigan OT significantly more than MIchigan. Is that not all in? What else are you going to do? Hire a prostitute?

We offered the Wisconsin LB the same money he took at Ohio State. Sometimes midwest people gonna midwest.

The only fault Sark has right now is that he didn't serve up the perfect portal class when some fans wanted him to. This isn't a problem of the portal. Its a problem of impatience.

"We'll end up with bodies" What is that? Aren't they all bodies? Or were you implying doom and gloom based on nothing more than your own impatience? Players on four playoff teams still have not entered the portal. Players not on those teams have still not entered the portal. We're losing back ups and back ups to back ups.

French wasn't going anywhere here. Oemeazulu was sharing time with two others, didn't play much. Seldom made a play. Why is this just killing the fan base?

One last thing. Many of the players we have let go are not going to be replaced. You're paying people to kill grass on the sidelines and that, frankly, is nothing anyone would want to do.

Wisner ended up taking the same money at FSU as Texas had offered. Same with several others so far. They aren't improving their situation. Is Wisner going to enjoy a 3-9 season at FSU?
I want it all and I want it now
 


Welp. The hits keep coming.Not surprised

IT:
This is probably going to get resolved. It’s not done yet but a DFW source said it’s being worked on.
