    Y'all are a bunch of babies. Hurts is a worse passer than Murray and Mayfield and a worse runner than Murray. Stop the run, and there's nothing to worry about

    Herman needs to handcuff Casey Thompson to a chair. Him and freshman Roschon Johnson should be sufficient.

    I know I'm a bit crazy, but every time I read his name I pronounce it in my head like Leroy Jenkins.

    There's a few OL/RB grad transfers floating around, have you heard anything linking any of them to UT?

    Haven’t heard any RB but reading that we’re interested in a few OL grad transfers, one from UVA and former 5* transferring out from Tennessee.

    Per Chip Brown (TIFWIW), Casey Thompson has told coaches that he’s pulling his name from the portal and will be back. This comes after reports that Beuchele requested his name out in and Rising has apparently told Herman he won’t return to Austin.

    If I'm Beuchele, I graduate and then transfer to start for a year. I'm not sure if I should be worried about the backup QB yet, should I?

    They absolutely need another RB to help Ingram.

    Buechele is set to graduate in May so he'll be a grad transfer with 2 years of eligibility left. SMU is the supposed leader and think that would be a good fit for him.

    Agreed on RB. Daniel Young is a good compliment but his fumbling issues are a huge concern. True Freshman Jordan Whittington will apparently practice at RB as well.

    Casey Thompson will be QB2, and Roschon Johnson will be QB3 and hopefully redshirt. Hakuna matata.

    I'm really excited about him. They're talking like they want to use him kind of all over the place: in the slot, in the backfield, returning kicks. Saw him compared to Alvin Kamara.

    Great now Casey Thompson said reports are not true and hasn’t come to a decision.

    Ya and hope they add some creativity to the offense. Sam isn't going to hold up the way we played him last season.

    I'm not sure why the Texans don't utilize the H-back.... Wycheck, Novacek, whoever etc....

    Not a big surprise but Kyle Porter and Tristan Houston put their names in the transfer portal.

    Tyler Owens is now a five star recruit and headliner of the 2019 class. Glad to see our coaches evaluating talent well and getting these guys early on in the cycle. We should have at least 4-5, current 5 star recruits in the backfield, which will help out tremendously because OU landed several 5 star WR's this cycle.

    Lots of smoke on the 9.95 sites about Bru McCoy potentially entering the transfer portal. Highly speculative but there’s enough from both the USC/Texas 247 sites plus several other TX sites to make it interesting.

    I was told to keep quiet about it, but our USC reported that Bru McCoy is considering entering the transfer portal. Now that the cat is out of the bag with 'the big news,' here is what I know.

    — McCoy met with the USC staff and compliance earlier today.

    — McCoy entered the day with intentions to enter the transfer portal.

    — I'm not sure the exact details of the meeting, but if McCoy did end up filing his request to enter the portal, there is up to a 48 hour window before his name is entered in the portal.

    — McCoy is still not in the portal. He could end up staying at USC.

    — If McCoy enters the portal, Texas will have the best shot to land him.

    — Texas has not been in contact with McCoy. That would be considered tampering
