re: 2026 Portal Tracker

Fair points. He’s not afraid to go after big names but designed qb runs appear to be a staple of his offense regardless. Horns greatest strength wasn’t running but … drink would run Tom Brady if he had the chance. Unless he has a proven talent, it appears he prefers running QBs to overcome some of his shortcomings.
He’s a very good athlete, stronger arm and more dynamic than pribula. With that said, I see a continuation of the same offensive struggles. I guess I’m hoping for any signs that offense evolves. Hate seeing how easy things look for other teams with comparable or lesser talent.

Possibly. Drink is infatuated with mobile QBs. Not ones that can move in pocket and extend the play but those that are extension of run game. With the predictable play calling and run game, not sure Simmons changes anything from what we saw this year.

I get kids hitting portal for playing time or personal reasons. Not a fan of free agents looking for big payday. I would rather over pay promising in state recruits vs 4M for a Cam Coleman.

I’ve come to the conclusion that drink is not a coach. He’s a CEO managing football operations. He shouldn’t dictate game planning, play calling. Leave that to coaches. He wants to be a lane Kiffin but is more like Jerry jones.

If true, that’s some serious rationalization on drinks part. As a fan, I just want to be entertained. This isn’t entertaining win or lose.

I turned it off as well. Eli better get his sh** together in the off season.
Same. Was hoping he might let Zollers air it out. Nothing to lose. Hope 2nd half isn’t same predictable play calling.
STL Cards or big red were close second to chiefs growing up. Once they left I tried to follow but lost interest. I suspect same will happen with chiefs. Not my states team any longer. Saturdays >> Sundays now.
Totally forgot about it until you posted that picture. I have that exact Mattel football game and the later version with passing option in box with some corgi trucks. Might break those out this weekend.
Based on estimated costs, every person in kS regardless of age just wrote a check for $700 to the chiefs.

Initially disappointed in the hire. I was hoping for someone with different style and who could nudge drink to be less conservative. If it is a continuation of Kirby style offense, that might not be terrible if new OC is less predictable and better in game adjustments. 1st drive in the Alabama game and few others, offense looked unstoppable.
Choklahoma, where the wins go sweepin' down the plain …
I was thinking the same thing. Pribula tendencies were very similar to cook once we got into conference games and played some legit defenses.
Will players like Mad Max Copeland still exist in this era? Worked and sacrificed to play for name on the front of jersey.
Does it really matter? Coaches, players chasing money and flirting with new schools every year. System is broke and slowly eroding fans allegiance. Difficult to have any connection to a team when roster flips every year.

Interesting choice of song if it was “Movin On” by the band Missouri.
Hope we don’t pursue. Talented but a lot of turnovers facing lower level competition. I will take a 2nd year with pribula.
Exactly. Recruiting services are folks trying to turn their fandom into a paycheck.
I’ve heard several rumors but who knows. Nothing is definite until portal closes. They definitely used him differently this year so couldn’t blame him.
