The week the portal opens is always a kick to the nuts even if it's been happening for several years in a row now. The immediate fix to me is opening the portal after the bowl season. Let's not make the non-CFP bowls completely useless, okay? Then figure out an agreeable limit to number of transfers. Some will say it's unfair while coaches leave all the time for more money/better opportunity, but truly that's only the case for a few assistants. Head coaches are not moving on to four schools in four years. And while our NIL fund will likely keep playing catch-up, I'm optimistic a few more years and things will start to balance out again. There will be enough horror stories - whether that's less playing time or unfulfilled NIL promises - for players to actually put more cliche "prayer and consideration" into their offseason decision. However, we (the program) needs to do its part, too. Keep developing a reputation as the place for offensive stars to shine. Put your senior stars in a position to realistically get drafted or signed to the NFL/UFL/CFL. Win bowl games, win conference championships while the league is wide open, win on national TV, win on Homecoming, win in front of your biggest crowds, beat your rivals.

I currently have two tickets if anyone wants them. Section 124, front row - near our bench and behind the dancers one section from the tunnel.

Ladies rally in the fourth to make it a respectable 63-58 final. 0-3 this year in games played west of Texas, maybe there's a reason outside of cost neither of our programs travel to the west coast often. Looking at the statsheet (I wasn't able to watch the game), Lampkin had a game-high 25 with 8 rebounds. Only Deck (11) also had double digits. We went 3-19 from three. Their Australian Pollerd only had 13 but two of their four long bombs. The Lady Broncos were led by their guard Hannah Rapp (also Australian) with 16. At 7-3, we still own the second-best record in the mediocre AAC, only being 7-1 UTSA. The ladies only play UTSA on the road on Tuesday, 2/4. UTSA's women's program is on the rise, and they swept us in two meetings last year. Last two games of nonconference are a MTE with SMU (Thursday, 12/19) and Chicago State (Saturday, 12/21) in Denton.

Then let me reword this, without sports they don’t exist.
