Hmmm…could be a reason why he’s no longer w/ the Horns. Sounds a little toxic/sour grapes??

As posted there was never any indication or rumors that he was a locker room pest.
To the very day he announced he was transferring his social media was all Texas love.
Guess we'll never really know.

Yeah - saw that/read that, but for a comment like that after he portaled to WU was a cheap shot, so makes me think there was some hard feelings or division there.

But, like you said, we’ll never know. Good luck to him. Great athlete and hope he does well with the Huskies.

The bridge was definitely burned quickly.

Perhaps after the season, I’d love to see Quinn disclose who made the offer. Why would he? Well, this may be naïve of me, but for the love of the game, it might be beneficial to reveal at least one of the teams that is tampering.

Pipe dream? Maybe. But he might do it as a favor to Sark, and Texas. Doing so would not prevent anybody from paying whatever they want for any player. But it might discourage tampering, which is a huge problem.

Rumors are Notre Dame or Miami.

Who knows the reason why at this point, but the portal additions of KC Conception, Michah Hudson and Mario Craver had to factor into his decision.

In general, besides grades, I'm sure the offers made to knew transfers sticks in the craw of the players already on the roster.

Short-sighted? Or genius move. Stick with your best receiver and build around him or roll the dice, pay big $$$ to import from the portal (thanks 8&5 BMD Daddy…again), and hope this goes better next year?

Oh, almost forgot. Uncle Jimbo says Howdy, Hook ‘Em, and asked when’s the next 8&5 CFP game, and can I get an advance in my next payout payment….for some unexpected Honey Do’s from the missis.

Interesting. My expectation was that Sark coveted a speed receiver like Worthy and Bond.

Zacariah and Zion Branch are coming to Austin for a visit in the coming days, according to Burton at OTF. They've previously visited Georgia and Arizona State.

Florida State DE Marvin Jones Jr is expected on campus today after visiting ou.

Herman fubar'd that relationship.

It wasn't just a snafu, it was a full blown fubar.

I would hope that Sark has put forth an effort to correct that bridge even though we are not and were not in the mix here. Brockermeyers dad and brother were both Texas all the way. Herman was an adult juvenile. His antics got him paid but he certainly has fizzled.

Things worked out. We’re in good shape now - thank gawd for CDC and Sark, they are the architects of the Horn Football Phoenix Program.

I knew Binder Boy ripped the relationship. I didn't know if the rip was repairable or if it was an eternal rip. Don't know if CDC & Sark are sufficient to repair that tear, but at this point that Q is probably moot. Blake will always be a Longhorn whether or not his kids & grandkids will ever be. Things come full circle. Losing the Brockermeyer boys helped seal the deal on the end of the Herman era @ UT, ushering in the Sarkisian era. IMHO
