Texas about to enter the Barrow race


They had reached out last week but as of yesterday it sounded like Barrow wasn't taking anymore visits, according to Texas sources.

I could be wrong but starting to think BK will not pay because he thinks these kids have character flaws if they are asking for more than their worth

There is a high probability OU will not be able to actually pay him what they offered. Even if they can scrape the money together, they've seriously depleted the war chest from what I have heard.

0-5 on DL? This is not the alignment I signed up for


How do you bring in the best DL coach in the game and it does absolutely nothing for you in recruiting?

It's a little more nuanced than that. From the team's perspective, do you want one of the highest NIL numbers on the team to go to some ok defensive tackle?

I'm not saying this approach is right or wrong, that will play out, but LSU is paying.

Insiders said 500-700k for the DT position this time. Is it worth that? Love to have him. But you just busted your nut on the so called best position development coach in the country.


That would be awful for the locker room.

You gotta let Bo develop.

Because this isn't recruiting.

It's a public auction.

How much do you pay for a DT

You're not paying for a DT

You're paying to have a good defensive line.

It sucks to be in this position, and I completely agree that paying $1million for one player is absurd and shouldn't happen, but this is the position we're in.

BK has had multiple recruiting cycles and portal windows to put together a good defensive line.

Open up the bank, or be prepared for 9-3 once again.

At least we won’t have any Demonic activity on our team.

OU already has a slew of good defensive linemen and we have none, yet they still got this guy. This is getting fricking pathetic.

That is exactly what you're doing.

No, you're hoping that some spring portal rando is going to be all SEC.

3 defensive coaches.

You're disregarding the high chance that you could overpay for a couple of linemen and still be 9-3.
