NIL will bring back big time UT football. There is MASSIVE money behind Texas football.

Not just the football program. They're spending money on a lot of the sports programs including women's volleyball. They brought in enough volleyball transfers last season to buy a championship.

Texas has only ever been worth a poo under two coaches. They were good under Brown for 8 years or so and then one other coach. Another coach from the 70's or 80's did well also.

Outside of that, most head coaches going back to the 60's have been around .500 or worse.

They have an unrealistic, entitled fanbase and a very wealthy alumni/booster pool full of trigger happy donors who want the coach gone if they aren’t undefeated and win the NC every other year. Sark is probably a dead man walking, if not this year than next.

They ran off Shaka Smart which may have been a mistake. Beard looked like a home run hire until everyone found out he likes putting his hands on women.

Think App State runs into a buzzsaw today after the Tez Walker shitshow.  Joey Aguilar coming in was a shot in the arm last week but slowing down UNC's pass rush is a tall order if what they showed against South Carolina is legit.

Tez Walker situation might be lightning in a bottle. Unexpectedly and unfairly taking him away from the team could really be a kick in the ass for the players.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
