The Awesomeness of This TD

[Saint Jimmy]

That's the breakaway speed we all heard about when he came out of high school. His first TD showed it too. If he can keep showing that and get the fumbles out of his system he will be a force the rest of this playoff and next year before he joins a growing number of Texas running backs playing on Sunday.

He's gonna want more money to stay at Texas. A million a year?

Yeah, it's sarcasm but it is going to get just that absurd. College football is now moron level stupid.

We all wanna believe these guys are all proud to wear the burnt orange and wanted all their lives to play for UT. I know I never wanted to go anywhere else. (In fact I got in quite a bit of hot water with my dad when I told him, "If I can't go to Texas, then I am not going at all.")

Sadly, that is just not reality anymore, if it ever was. It's just having my nose rubbed in it that is irritating. I liked it better when it was all hush-hush and I could pretend that all our players felt like me about it.

I think there are many current Horns who wanted to be here
The last 2/3 years changed everything
Can it be toned down any?
How long can/will NIL give out the big bucks? Without the big bucks why would agents bother like we see this year in portal?
How many of the over 2k will get NFL contracts

If you follow the money it kinda looks like it isn't sustainable in it's current pace

6721,

All that matters is that the "agents" get paid. Screw the kids, screw the schools, screw the fans, pay the agents. The ballon can't last long because there are too many sharks with sharp teeth. In the meanwhile, the fans suffer, and I expect season ticket money greatly decreases.

Oh bummer, that means prices go up.

Concur with you all, Blue is fast! We must keep him in BO&W. However, with the return of Blue, Wisner, Baxter, Clark and Gibson plus the new recruits Simon and Stewart....is someone gonna be left out?

*If you follow the money it kinda looks like it isn't sustainable in it's current pace...............IMO, there is no way it is sustainable. If it is, how highh will collectives be willing to go? I've have witnessed many millionaires in oil / gas do broke, If not what do the future recruits look forward to and will they say 'but what about me'?

22,

Your last sentence is what dropped aTm is the grease years ago and kept them there until Jackie arrived; then when they fired him, they went back to hell in a handbasket.

 

[22Horn]

No doubt! However, it's nationwide now and apparently nothing to stop it unless congress jumps in....and it's not a govenment problem!

Well, clearly the NCAA doesn't have a clue - so who else can enforce some common-sense rules?

 

[22Horn]

Hornfans can accomplish that!!
