I think they have a good observation that we have all shared in here, McCarney seems to be wanting to forgo immediate juco impact to build the program through the Texas high school ranks. This would be a change in philosophy from Dodge who signed 8 jucos last year and Dickey who would always sign 3-4 every year to fill gaps. GMG!

Good Take and notice how Texas Tech is having problems finding interior Dlineman. They don't just grow on trees.

Still can't believe we lost out on the DT to Ark State after he verballed to UNT.

Good Class, some quality talent and rebuilding the way we all envisioned.

I think that McCarney is looking for players, whether they be JUCOs or High Schoolers. We lost out on a couple of Juco DTs. If they woulda signed, we more than would have let them.

Still concerned at the lack of DT JUCOs in this class. Hopefully we can land one at the end of this semester.

I think Coach Mac would have gone the JUCO route for some DT's if they could have transfered in mid-term, in fact, I think he mentioned this during his press conference.

I hope TTech doesn't come sniffing around our few DT recruits to fill their now pressing need, and I liked this news:

Frisco Liberty WR Cameron Brown has decommitted from Minnesota

as of 1/17/11. Hopefully we have someone after him, although Carr may fill this need. I would prefer to see Carr playing safety.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that another DT and another OL slide our way.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
