When will this stupid craziness stop? Black, brown, white or purple, do what the police tell you to do and stay out of bad neighborhoods in cities like Chicago and you will be fine. I don’t remember a single black Texas football player ever being shot because of his color, but I read daily about black brothers being shot by other blacks. I do remember many black Texas football players being worshiped as heroes by white people and being given a ton of positive support. Some even get statues of themselves and s- - t named for them.
I don't necessarily mind if what they're being taught is fact and is the truth. However, I have a feeling what they are being fed is far from the truth.
They should just kick it in gear and go with the rest of us.The B1G and Pac12 should have listened to us.

Yes the damage is done.The B1G and Pac12 should have listened to us.

Our rooms with multiple starters are getting more guys from the transfer market. After adding a very high quality back earlier in the week, here is a WR/multi-position add from Arizona.
My question is......Where's our transfer linebacker we need?
Good catch, YOS. I was a totally looking at this^^^ yesterday afternoon and thinking I was a bit surprised we didn't bring them both on. I'm sure there were reasons on one side or the other....I hope good onesInteresting - Brendan Schooler's brother Colin is a grad transfer LB who just entered the portal and is now a Red Raider. He was the 2017 Pac-12 Freshman Defensive Player of the Year and is the FBS active leader in tackles for loss with 46, recording at least 90 tackles in each of his three seasons with Arizona.
Sure would have been nice to add both brothers and get some LB help.
Texas Tech adds transfer Schooler from Arizona
High quality back ???? The guy is a DII kid who was out with an injury all last year..More of a serviceable body than a high quality back. With two major conferences backing out of football you would think TEXAS could get a top flight DI runningback to portal in....Our rooms with multiple starters are getting more guys from the transfer market.

Nonetheless, welcome to The 40, Mr. Schooler

I'm thinking you have about 1 or 2 stars every handful of years (Ehlinger would be the only one currently) who stand out and are recognizable and a handful who get some local love...with the rest sitting out the party.Will be interesting to see what UT allows with regards to players being in jerseys, helmets, other UT gear, or if they do as I suspect and prevent a player from using any of those.
Let's be honest with the Name Image Likeness euphemism. Players aren't going to make money on a cross stitch of their face that their Grandma sewed up. It's all about ads and product endorsements. And without them being in uniform in an add, with just a few exceptions, who's going to recognize them or know their name well enough to be swayed by an ad with them in it?
Now if there's a highlight clip and they're in a Texas jersey whist talking about how wonderful Chico's Used Cars is, that's a different story. But without the uniform, you're talking just a few players that are likely to get deals. So the big decision for UT is do they allow the use of football gear in ads?
A few businesses would be interested in the names/likenesses of the entire team. Video games, for example. The player wouldn't even have to do anything but give EA permission to include their name in the roster for NCAA 2022 and they'd get a check.I'm thinking you have about 1 or 2 stars every handful of years (Ehlinger would be the only one currently) who stand out and are recognizable and a handful who get some local love...with the rest sitting out the party.
Good point, Ajo. I hadn't thought thoroughly along those lines.A few businesses would be interested in the names/likenesses of the entire team. Video games, for example. The player wouldn't even have to do anything but give EA permission to include their name in the roster for NCAA 2022 and they'd get a check.
