Football is finally back and this is the time of year when I probably have more action going than any other point on the calendar. That's why I like my bookie. Whether I'm sitting around before kickoff, killing some time between games, or I see something I like right before the ball goes in the air, I can pull it up and make my play. You don't have to overthink every game or feel like you need to have some complicated system. Find a matchup that you've been watching all week, see a number you like, put a little action on it and suddenly that game you are already going to watch has a little more juice. If you're new to my bookie, they're also giving you a little protection on that first wager with the bet back bonus. Just sign up using promo code CFB2026, CFB like college football, 2026, opt into that bet back bonus and make your first play. If that wager loses, you get it back. College football is here, the board is loaded and there's finally something to bet on every Saturday again. Get in on the action with my bookie bet on anything anytime, anywhere.

I'm Bobbie Burton. I'm Bobbie Burton. We have one special guest for sure that we're going to bring in almost immediately. You never know who you're going to run into with the co-op guys. I ran into one Chad Powers or Eli Manning. Manning was in the co-op. He bought a few hundred dollars worth of Texas gear. I hope he still has money in his bank account. No money. Blakeman Rowett Shields. We are here live the co-op. Thank you to the folks at the co-op as well as the 40 Acres collection. Rod and I were in the gear. Jerry's got some specially made gear that's 48 Acres collection.

I just bought this hat from the 48 Acres. The co-op as well. So come on out here anytime you want to replenish your wardrobe. Also thank you to Garage Beer as well. Garage Beer Light and Lime as well as Fouse distributing for their ongoing sponsorship of on Texas football. Guys we're going to go over score predictions today. We're going to go over some other items that we see as keys to this game. But first I tell you what, let's get in one of our special guests almost right away because he's been waiting here patiently. We appreciate him. This is Chad Masco, the father of Bowmasco starting corner back to University of Texas. Go on in and chance it out. Coach Masco actually. Coach Masco. Yeah, once you're a coach, you're always a coach. You can go coach. You're also a really good player. Bobby when he was national recruiting advisor followed you in high school a little bit too.

Signed with UCF so talented family. Thanks for joining us today. What was this? Fight Lime Becker. Fight Lime. Yeah. Yeah. Get me the size. No wonder you like Will Mustchan. Yeah. I was both Masco was both always a corner. I was the only one where they started in football wise. So football wise he started out at running back. Okay. But I told him when he was 10 years old and you can score the touchdowns you want to lead when you get to high school you're going to be a corner. Oh, you tell them that. Oh, that's believe it. Hope you allow back. So what they do you think is court just being around the game for a long time. I understand some of the best corners. Yeah. Yeah. You think that's it. But I think that's it. Right. How many? How many carries did you have? I didn't play football. I got to seven great. Mama didn't want me to. So I made that decision. So maybe I wouldn't get a running back. Right. So I got asked first game for both at Texas tomorrow.

First game in the stands as a Texas all heard pops for you. Kind of what are the emotions? What are you guys? What are you feeling? Oh, man. We just feel like it's been a long time coming. You know, when he was in high school, we felt like he was overlooked. He felt like he was one of the best corners in the country. But his side of the speed was a question that he. Proving them wrong. That you know, and they're going to records and play the whole entire time. He was dead, man. So I mean, we feel like it's been a long time coming. This is the stage. He was born to be on the stage. He know he's supposed to be on. But we just we excited about that. It does feel like that because I watched a lot of film about. So I've become I became a fan watching that rug just played a lot of man plays. I got a lot of press man up there. I thought his best game of the season was a yes or a half state. It gets the best competition. And now I think he's going to be very compatible with this must-champ scheme. What is he done? Because there's a belief among low-end fans from what we've heard been here in the spring. And now it's continuing to train the camp that he's on the press. He's on a breakout campaign.

He's going to be the best version of both masks. Go that we've seen in college football. What sets the stage for that? I think I think this will be the best version of him. It's almost like he's playing high school again. Yes. You know what happened? Calling Simmons and having seen Bob's and having that D line to be able to get some pressure. On the quarterback, he can play a little bit more. He can be a little bit more physical. You know, get up in a face because that's what he love to do. So I think this definitely would be the best version of him. I mean since he's been here, he's put on more weight. He's gotten faster. Got more explosive. Everything is, you know, I see a different. But he was that rough. Does he have any funny Will Muff champ stories yet? I mean, look, it's one thing to be recruited by Muff champ. But what Rahim Rahim Bowles mentioned in press conference money. But the first time you hear the Muff champ voice coming your way. Has he had anything like that yet? He told me no crazy. It went at 48 pass breakups on 15 spring practices. So he probably got more paths on the back than anything.

No, listen, I want to go to Muff champ to get in his butt, man. But think about Bow, you're getting his butt. He's just going to look at you on the knees and just go right back to work. So it's it's hard to yell at him too much because he ain't going to give you nothing back. Yeah. So, yeah. So, so you're big in the Orlando youth football and obviously all the way up having camps, all star game. I got to ask you before we're all gets another corner question. And I won't get to this one. Who's the best player you've ever seen come out of Orlando? You've seen them all, man. Is there somebody that stands out? Man. And you've seen it all there. Man, listen, man, you, you, you, that's, that's, that's a tough one. I told you I was going to hit you with one. I can go back so far. You, I can go back to Willie Green. You know, you can go back to, uh, uh, one sat when he was out of pocket. Oh, man. Oh, it's happened. Apocca. No, there was somebody at Apocca got named T.T. Tullable. That was. What do you feel like?

He played football and basketball. Opposition and football. No, I'm talking about it was Jeremy Rudolph at Apocca and T.T. Tullable was that man. Yeah, T.T. was a man. Basketball and football and was the absolute truth. So, but yeah, but I mean, I'm a homer. I got to go with Willie Green. OK. You know, he went to the University of Florida. He was my teammate. So I got to go with Willie Green. No, it doesn't believe now with both that, you know, because all that talent you talking about there in Florida. And high school, he played with a ton of great players. John Walker. Yeah, the corner at the CLSU name now Jackson, right? Joaquin Jackson. He played with Joaquin Jackson. He played with on Derret LeBlanc. Derret LeBlanc is now, he's that he's starting with all you, but now he's that Maryland. John Walker, that sort of house, right now, allows him Melinda is the linebacker at Auburn. He was with him too. Tavillon Swint, the running bat that said UCF, they had a great game last night. Man, it was just listening.

That team was with loaded. And he played against great competition too. Yeah, we played. And it's something about now he's with this team that is also loaded with a ton of talent. Tom won one of the most talented teams in the country. Some people are projecting 15 draft picks, potentially bobe in one of those this year, potentially. And it's interesting that now it's bringing out the best of them. Is that something about them that when he's around the best competition? Maybe that's what brings out the best of him as a player? Because I think that's a part of it. It's like the best game of the season last year when you watch film. It's a whole sake. I guess what he boils out against, so I think he's a good player consistently, but he jumped out the film there. I think both plays with a chip on the soul. So any of those games that you feel like that, the nature of the saying he won't be able to compete, I think those are the games he thrive on. That's what has always been throughout his high school career, anytime that he played against somebody that they felt like on to get the best of him,

he fell down to the challenge. You know, he's got that Florida game circle this year. He kind of said that in the press conference. I wasn't recruited by any of the schools in Florida. I'm pretty sure he's getting it FSU Florida Miami. And he gets to crack at one of them this year. No, he, you see up to, you see up with one on two. Oh, hey, look at that, man. That's quite good. That's sweet. I'm just gonna go up. Yeah, go up. Yeah, yeah. But not the, um, no, yeah, none of the, none of the Florida schools really, he was in high school. And he was in high school then really recruited him. And then, but you know, when he went into the quarter, of course, all those schools called, but I think at that time it was like, hey, at the end you didn't want me now how you all are. What's going on about that? Hey, we know about that. We know about that. No, no, no. Okay, speaking of Texas, how often have you been to Austin? Now that, you know, both of the Texas men beyond which I haven't been here since I'm on the recruiting trip, but I job trucks.

I've been in Texas for the last two weeks running rock some Texas. I'll make sure I was here on time. Man. You want to be late for the game? I'm in the know this morning. I delivered it Austin and then I picked up a load in, uh, uh, right on the street. Uh, what did that by do? Uh, right on the street, we talked about 20 miles away. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I dropped my truck off over there and called a whoo over here. Beautiful. You want to make sure, you know, there's nothing that's going in there being like something pop up or some logistical issue to keep you from being in Texas for game day.

That's real. What? He's got it back. That's the graphics and everything. You might have to vote that. Yeah, we ride. Every game, we done. Thanks for joining us so much. So last question I have for you. What's Bow's ultimate goal in football? Man, listen, his ultimate goal is what I've been preaching to him. And it's like him and his brother. Is it be team players first? It's win first? And everything goes to happen after that. I always believe in that. But you gotta do to help your team win. And they're gonna come see why your team is winning. But I've always preached them to that from day one. Ever be a meager, there we go. I love that. OK, one last thing, coach, we'll let you go. Because you revealed a little nugget to us before we got on, came on air about the family tree. And there's football greatness, goatness in the family tree.

Would you be willing to reveal it to the to the longhorn nation? Never been longhorn nation. So Bow's mom, they've heard old and brothers, they're Thomas. Be there Thomas. All the fame there Thomas. I was like, I was like, they're they're told is that they know other there tell us. I mean, maybe some other ones, but there's only one. His mom is the youngest seven. That's crazy. I can't talk that. I ain't done my DNA ancestry stuff, but I can't talk. I don't know what's in there, but I can't talk that. So, coach, thank you for joining me. I appreciate you all. That was awesome. I'll keep you up with that road trip, though. I'm going to keep on with you. What's the most interesting way on the guy? Athlete United Group. Athlete United Group. Athlete United Group. Hi, Gene. Athlete United Group. On a hygiene. I just appreciate you. Can every trip, man? Every trip. Yeah, absolutely. Rod.

So, question. First time you've studied boat mask. You're going to watch him tomorrow for the first time in a Texas uniform. And he's actually going to get tested out of the gate. Win sex estate. Yeah, I got you. I was always here. What are you looking at? What are you going to be watching with Bo tomorrow? I do want to see how much man coverage they're going to play. I mean, we saw in the spring showcase. They played a lot of man coverage. Now, maybe that was just because, hey, it's spring showcase. We just want to simplify the as simple as possible. And they just want to throw the guys into the mix and see if they could hold up against each other and how consistent they could be. But the belief is that that's much champs style. That's his philosophy that he wants to play one man coverage. Nick Sabin, the all-time great Nick Sabin said, hey, the best coverage is man coverage. You just got to have the dogs and the athletes to be able to play it. Texas believes they have those type of athletes in place. Well, Masco Ed Rutgers played a lot of it and a lot of press man. I even asked his dad about it because that's what he didn't really well. He stood out to me was how much press man they played. So I want to see if they're actually going to play man coverage, how much press man they're

going to play with, Beaumassco on the outside there. And he'll make him play on the football. And he was in high school. I meant to ask his dad about this, but you can't keep him here all day long. But he's not screaming a lot of plays on the football. He's last two years. I think he had like 10 in his 70s, like 17 P.B.U.'s couple of pick-sits. He was a ball-hawk. But he didn't see that ball-hawkish ability at Rutgers. I think it's because of lack of talent. You tell him about how many great players. He played with in high school and going, well, you didn't play with great players. It brought out the ball-hawk in him. He was more confident with those guys at Rutgers. You didn't see that guy. I think your Texas, we're hearing he's getting a lot of P.B.U.'s hands on the football. I'm thinking of playing with Colin Simmons playing with Raheem Biles bringing out that ball-hawk in him too. Here's what I think. There's clearly a lack of talent in Rutgers based on what we saw. Come on, man. You man, that is getting a boat race. They spin their... In I.L. And fireworks. They got boat race last night by UMass, a team that had lost 12 consecutive games. All right. We'd say thanks to some folks real quick.

It's time to kind of go back and look at our reveal of our scores for this score prediction

for tomorrow's game. And then we're going to bring Marcus Myers in with us to give us his mind, I guess is the best way to put it. Do you have that ready for us? One second he said. But let's think about this. Texas is a prohibitive favorite. The line's 29 and a half right now. So the folks in Vegas saying Texas should have a pretty good day of it. However, I think all three of us just in talking to each of you this week have a fairly healthy respect for the quarterback at Texas State Brad Jackson as well as their receiver group. We think they're going to move the football a little bit because they just when you have a good quarterback and you get the ball out quick, you have a chance against anybody. Why do we think Texas is going to win or potentially win by 30 or more? What's the thought process that behind that? On defense, I think the ability to disrupt timing of Brad Jackson over the course of the

game, not maybe the first couple of series, but when we get into that second, third quarter, I feel like that Texas defensive front that Texas pass rush. I think once you get past scripts, I get the Jay Kenny really good offensive coach. I think that's where your defensive depth and you start to create the turnover rod, the ball on the ground scenario. Their offensive line is the biggest by weight in college football. How quick are they going to be moving by a millisecond quarter in this heat? The field's going to be 140 to 150. I think it may take Texas a little bit of time defensively, but I think that depth on the defensive front is going to start to wear on them as we get into the second quarter. defensive front off its mind. What do you think, Rod? I like Jerry's take. I think he's I think what's going to give a tech to say a little bit of an advantage because they have really good personnel offensively. Brad Jackson's one of maybe the best quarterback in the group of six, 2000 receivers, only program had that last season.

I think Texas is going to be relatively vanilla. I don't think they're going to be deep into Mushroom's bag. I think the element of mystery going into the Ohio State game is a true advantage. Even G.J. Kinney admitted this week when they asked me, what do you expect for Mushroom? Beefy said, I don't know. No idea. I'm going to fill it out for the first three series and then say, okay, this is what he's trying to achieve. These are some tendencies I can pick up on. But I don't know. You have no idea what a Mushroom defensive look like. I want to keep that advantage going into a Ohio State. I think they may be kind of basic in their coverages and in front and pressure packages. So you will see the physicality. You'll see the violence. Hopefully, they're really buttoned up and guys take an angle to the football. But I don't know if you will see the depth of the complexity of the Mushroom's game, which may give Texas state an early advantage. Because third, you're starting quarterback in this system. They got 2000 ever seen was they may see very vanilla coverages and go, really? I'm just going vanilla cover for, okay, quarters, a good. You know what I mean? So you may see that. That's why I think even Sarc said it. He said, they may move the football.

They may make some plays. I think he knows we're going to be kind of vanilla. The offense is are going to make place. That's just the bottom line. Doesn't mean they're going to make a lot of them. So you're going to try to limit those. I think it's the line of scrimmage to y'all's point and talking with Sarc briefly yesterday. He talked about how physical his offensive line has been this offseason and this training camp much more physical than some previous times going into a year. Let's look at these score predictions. We'll give everybody the totals here right now. I went 52 to 10, not bad. Jerry, I'm 52 20. Excuse me. I can't even read my own right. Not sure what the concern was up there. They did. People are going to get upset at me for this because no, because of the 20. That's that's a lot of point. That's the most anybody has though. Is it not every all pretty close with three points. We got 17. That's just a legitimate. Very good. What should be an eight and four type of G five team. Right.

You know, potentially in a coach. It's going to be a P four head coach really soon. It's going to take his quarterback with him wherever he gets hired after this year. So they're a legitimate quality. This is not San Jose State Sam Houston or Utah. We talked about it offseason. They're a legit decent football team. Look at this. Jerry, you went 42 17. You went. You went. I guess that's the under. You did not. You did not like the line in this game. Rod B 45 17 right at the line. I will say it. I cover. Uncovered. I think I'm a little bit under it because I respect Texas. They's office a little bit. Yeah, I like I like the Texas offense. I think. And I will say this. DJ Kenny likes to play up. Tipo that means more possessions. More opportunities for a Texas offense. Marcus so we'll bring Marcus in. He'll he'll give you his count down. He and I very similar scores. Look at that coach shipley 42 to 10 coach Irwin 45 to 10 CJ. Jeff Hank. We got it all on there for you guys.

So take a look. Went full belt to a belt to a. Well, he is the most confidence in the much jam defense that we see. Evolves everybody else has it in the teams. It leads us for me. He's in the most shamby because we'll totally dominate when Marcus comes on here. Marcus is going to have to a little stat about season openers under Sark against G five teams at you. It was a market Marcus get in here and talk about this. I got. Yeah, what Marcus in here. I. I. I respect the score from you Bob because I can say I think that Texas state offense actually may make more plays and lowland fans are willing to accept or comfortable with in the preseason. Yes, no doubt. And I think most of us because I think much less going to be vanilla. That's my theory. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, represent, baby. And offense look good. And offense look good.

Yeah. Nice. We got a you match. That's a ball shirt on. They're out and they're loud and proud today. And I would not. Marcus, what's this stat that Jerry Hamilton was talking about that you have? We were over in the clubhouse before we walked over and I was talking to Hank and the guys and I was trying to do a little ride research, right? So in the Sark tenure, right, when they haven't played a marquee opponent in noncony, he's 12, 12 games against G5 opponents. And of those 12, six of them have been in the 50s from offensive, you know, production standpoint, only four in the 30s. It was one that was in the 20s and only one was in the 40s. So that kind of went into to my thought process. The other thing that I think, I don't know how, you know, maybe I brought it up this week, but I didn't really notice it until I was kind of digging a little deeper as well. Certainly, you know, it's interesting that like Texas and Texas State haven't played before, you know, in a really long time, right?

30 year right. But there is, there is somebody on this roster that did, Raleigh Brown, played against Texas State last year when he was at Arizona State, 144 yards rushing on 12 carries and a 75 yard touchdown. So, you know, I kind of agree with, you know, your thoughts on the up tempo, but, you know, even though they have a really large offensive line, they have a really small running backs. And so I don't know if it's more of a, I don't think it'll be one of those, try to lean on you or ball control kind of thing, but more of a change of pace, try to get outside some. And I think that may kind of play into, you know, the aggressive style that Mustamp runs. And, you know, I just expect that, you know, even though they do have a new defensive coordinator, the offense, you know, should be able to do kind of whatever they want. Football is finally back and this is the time of year when I probably have more action going than any other point on the calendar. That's why I like my bookie. Whether I'm sitting around before kickoff, killing some time between games, or I see something I like right before the ball goes in the air, I can pull it up and make my play.

You don't have to overthink every game or feel like you need to have some complicated system. Find a matchup that you've been watching all week, see a number you like, put a little action on it, and suddenly that game you are already going to watch has a little more juice. Due to my bookie, they're also giving you a little protection on that first wager with the bet back bonus. Just sign up using promo code CFB 2026 CFB like college football 2026, opt into that bet back bonus and make your first play. If that wager loses, you get it back. College football is here. The board is loaded and there's finally something to bet on every Saturday again. Get in on the action with my bookie bet on anything anytime, anywhere. Sure for you guys. Jerry mentioned it. And I think it's appropriate. Is this an audition for G.J. Kenny or is the whole because he's had a good career, good, good run at Texas State. A lot of people thought at one point he might be the next coach at Baylor.

Now we think TCU, I'm not saying TCU is going to come open, but there's some people, there's some rumblings in Fort Worth early after the loss to UNC. Dave Miranda, it's put up or shut up moment for him. Is this an audition year for G.J. Kenny and if he were to perform well, or at least I'm not saying beat Dex's, but admirably, that puts him on a stage and say, okay, if I had like John, John Sumrell at two lane, right, goes from two lane to Florida. So big step, but the idea being it puts him on that plateau where, okay, I can go compete with those guys. Just give me the better flames. You know, we talked about a little bit on Monday, right? Where, you know, it might have been Wednesday with you, Rod, where, you know, Sark had made the comment about Texas State potentially being able to vibe for, you know, a CFP spot. And so if he's able to make a solid run at it, whether he gets, you know, there are not, but I ate him for nine and three type season that shows that, you know, he has really

good offensive production and has good command of his program. I mean, I wouldn't be shocked at all to see one of these bigger names come calling. There would just be a matter of, you know, is that something that he, you know, really wants to do with this juncture? Yeah. And if he, indeed, thinks of this game as an audition, then he's going to throw everything as Sark early because you can't afford for it to be a blowout in a second half. You're going to let me throw out all my, out my, my grad, grad gadget plays. I'll get deep into my bag. So if he gets deep into that bag, which we all assume this all season, DJ Kenny has been, yeah, right? He's in the lab like, oh, man, looking at Texas film and they dropped a special plane. You're going to throw those at Texas in the first quarter because he'll buy the second, middle second quarter, you can get that Sark run. This thing could be out of hand. So I think you're going to get the best of that offense early. I think they're going to try to suck you into something. I'm not sure what it is. I'm not sure if we talking about flea flicker. I'm not talking about double pass. You'll get something. Yeah, you can scheme it up well. He does a really good job with what it is that he's setting out to do.

And I think his players certainly buy into it. So I'm with you, right? I think he's certainly spent some significant time this off season trying to find some areas that he thinks he might be able to take advantage of. And the players believe in him because Brad Jackson, guy having a year like that, only two players in Colise football had at least 30, 200 yards passing, at least 700 yards rushing and responsible for at least 35 touchdowns. Diego Pavia and Brad Jackson, usually guys who have that kind of season, they leave. And as receivers, right? Both of them believe that they believe in DJ Kenny. They believe in the system. So I think it's, I think it is. And it could be for any number of schools. But they are paying well right now at Texas State. Like one of the things we talked about at lunch, we had lunch with Jerry and DJ and Hank today. And we were talking about how Jeff trailer. He missed his window, right? And he you're saying he did, period.

And my thought process was, yeah, he did maybe too. I felt that way. But is it real? Are you really missing your window if you're making three million a year? That's true. I mean, that's your fault. It's not a window. It's so grateful. I mean, I feel like he could have went, he could have taken some jobs and that came available. But my, my thought process on this is there's a limit, right? But you know, Eric Morris went from North Texas, though, almost state, had a hell of a year. And usually you got a time and around that. What about that? That's what you think you can take the money. You know, you test it, that's right about the parish. Yeah, four or five year guy. And he's got Brad Jackson. Remember, it was Matt Campbell who had the party. Yeah, that perty window and then he lost the perty window. And obviously he's okay right now. But you can't, the poor, that window is usually built around your quarterback. You find a good one. Maybe it's time for you to use that one to catapult yourself.

I like that, I like that idea of it. Mark is your keys for the game. I talked a little bit about what we want to see. What do you think your keys for this game? I hope is that they start fast. You know, I mean, we've heard a lot of talk, you know, in the off season about, you know, things that they've put an emphasis on, you know, Sark certainly made some changes, not only with personnel, but with staff. And so I hope to just see them start fast, you know, have a pretty sharp operation. I don't expect them to be perfect, right? It's, it's still going to be the first game. There's still going to be some things that, you know, aren't going to go 100% they want them to, but I would really like to see them start fast and then be able to build on that. Carry that momentum. And then, you know, by, by the end of the game, third quarter into the fourth that you're imposing your will. And that, and for me, that's not always like just necessarily a mauling run game. I would love to see it, but I just don't know if that's necessarily this, this team style, but just being able to make sure that the game is going the direction they wanted to, right? It's, they're not responding, but, but they're the ones that are, you know, forcing the other team to do that.

So I'm hoping to see. I think, I think that's a great point because you don't want to, the one thing you don't want is to not feel like you're in control of a game like this where you think you have a personnel gap. I don't know what, what that really looks like yet, because we haven't seen them. But look, they're, they're playing some older guys. You look across, you mentioned their offensive lines, a lot older guys and a lot of size. Their defensive line, they got a guy back from an NFL camp. Yeah, yeah. Some of that's there. And so we need to be cognizant of that. But I think that Texas, you want them to see and have. What is coach Irwin and coach Irwin and coach Shipley, you both use the same term, efficiency. And I think that's a, that's a fair term as we, as we look for it. All right, I need to say thank you to our sponsor here real quick. That is Von Lane guys. You know what's wild airlines are now charging you $80 or more just for a seat assignment on their cheapest fares.

You buy a ticket and you don't even know where you're sitting until check in. Then they hit you for bags on top of that. At some point you have to ask yourself, what am I actually paying for? Von Lane doesn't play that game. Flat weight, fares, no bag fees, no seat assignments, no non-sign, no nonsense, no TSA. You boarded a hotel terminal, sitting one of twenty two first class leather seats and everything is included. Starlink Wi-Fi that actually works snacks drinks hot towel service and meals on selected departures and. Telling you the game starts at 230 tomorrow. You're in Dallas or Houston. Get on a Von Lane and come up here and join us in Austin. It is going to be a hot one we think, but it's likely to be a little cooler. Then what we were expecting now game time tip they're saying 93. That is cool. I mean that is like a cool smell and all. That's cool. I'm as crazy. I thought so anyways. Hey, yeah, if you notice that you got you suddenly got smaller over there Jerry. Yeah. Mark's Mars. Mark is Mars that out.

I just. Not a D-roaming or a courtesy. No, no, no, no, no Mayo over here. I now Mayo Hamilton. We know the we know the background now. I still one D one. I still one D one. So one D one. I still though. Yeah. We know the background story of Mayo. The sentence would have said so then when you saw me actually move athletic you say definitely not. A stage. Bow down. Robbie the king of stats. Like unknown obscure stats. Right. And I saw it. Show me those. Should everybody you're paid. Like what? It's. He does his work. You're going to show the camera up here man. This is Rodney's notes for this game. You see this. It's not the keeper menu phone these days. And. And this is Keto the dog didn't need his homework. The puppy didn't need his homework. My question. You're you're into. I called him obscure, but they're not really obscure because you you try to find meaning in. The nuggets in there. Are there one or two you want to remind people of prior to tomorrow?

Oh, that is good prior to tomorrow. Well, I guess most of the conversation will be about the Texas offense right and how the offense looks. The offense and the efficiency of the offense. A lot of it we based on did arch improve. In some of those areas we talked about. Then he hit the crossing route. That's something he struggled with right. He was he's completing less than 50% on crossing routes last season. That's a big part of socks offense. Do we see them improve on little things like that. The slant route is completing like 53%. That should be a higher percentage route. Watching to see if arch has improved on those more routine. High percentage quick game throws. To me could be the difference. And you talk about what coach. Coach Irwin talked about and coach simply. The efficiency. Yeah, Sarc has lacked having an explosive offense combined with an efficient offense. That's part of the problem. This is often having having really been efficient.

They've been really explosive but not efficient. And I think some of that last year was based on arch's. You know, development of growing pains, if you will, as a quarterback. And if he becomes a more efficient passer. And then you know, it's a lot of time. I mean, the style is a limit for the office. That's when that's when you potentially go from a. Be offense to a. The roof is the ceiling. Yes, MJ will say. Okay. Yeah. Because that's what he's lacking right now in this game. The thing that NFL style so salivating over with arch is the deep throws. The deep vertical throws. He's great on the post routes. The corner routes. The. You go look at him on the dig routes. And then he's going to be a little bit more. He's going to be a little bit more. He's going to be a little bit more. Really tough throws but he's great on those. What he struggles with at times is the. The throws that keep you on time and on schedule any fish. The little slant route. You know, I mean, the quick, the quick drag route across the middle. If he gets more efficient there. It's going to be scary, scary times.

Potentially. And I think that's what I'm looking for tomorrow. Do we get a more efficient version of arch? We know arch. You know, chick's in the long bars. So he's going to be great. Now we can't comment it right and we can go. We're going to be as deep as D. The deep ball is going to be there. Will we get them what efficient quick game throws that also go along with that? If we do, this offense is going to be a scary good scary good. I hope I those are my hopes. Yeah. You know, and when I when I started putting together what I thought. I look. I woke up on the right side of the bed. I woke up on the sunny side of life and I. I just feel like they're. You know, by the way, I need a segue into this real quick. I think it's a good idea. I think that's what I'm going to say. Arch today. Was at the ribbon cutting ceremony for the new. Indoor practice facility. He and Trevor gooseby both spoke to the. Audience today at that event. Very. Both of those guys. Very down to earth. For. Yes. Very easy to root for. And so I. I think he's going to have a good year. Rod. I think I think he's going to have a good year.

Alright, we're going to get to some questions from our community here as well. Also want to tell you guys what we've got coming up this weekend before we do that. So real quick. I need to go over our schedule for tomorrow. Game day schedule. Obviously the game itself is at 2 30. That's going to be on ESPN. We start tomorrow with a Saturday conversation. Dear. I excuse me. Rod and I. Talk about the game itself. One more breakdown before you guys get on your road to Austin or. Wake up. On. There we have the Texas tailgate. I said. I'm going to be coming to you live from the 40 acres. Watch with us. Starts at 2 30. Aaron Hogan. Bob Shipley. Jerry Hamilton. Jeff Howell. Rod Bavors. We got them all. Then we have the post game. Rod you me and. Ryan Robison. And then from the field. The new and we actually did a little bit of it last year. But to Hank South. And CJ Vogel going to be coming live from. DKR a little bit. Yes.

We got a lot of things. We're trying to up and amp it up. Now here's where you really get amped up. Is this. On Sunday. About this run. Did this just hit you now. No, that's not real. We're going to have a call and show. So it'll come on on Sundays. But it's also I want to be clear. This is also for after the game. So. EU and Brian Robison will also be taking calls after the game. Hello. We already talked about that. Matt and I talked about it. So Matt says we don't have a dump button in. Because we're online. So we have to have recorded calls. So anybody can call in and record at this number. The one thing I would say to you all about this. Make sure you put your say your name. The user name. As well as where you're calling in from. So. You know, Tammy from Taiwan. Whatever. That kind of thing. For mountain stadium. Yeah. Exactly.

That sort of thing. But we're going to have fun with it this year. Our. Our plan is to try to bring as much. Much of the fun. Back to. Life as possible. So that'll start. That'll start tomorrow night. And I'm sure Brian Robison now. Can you imagine he's going to. It'll talk to the people. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. He didn't know. You know what I was saying. I didn't know. I was going to go. No, I was. I was going to go. I was going to go. I was going to go. I was going to go to the people. I was going to go. I was going to go. We need a roll tide Willie to call in. So. Josie, Brian knows Roll tide Willie. Get him call in. Okay. Chose on on. Oh night. Time to do this. All right. Let's begin to that. Let's get to some questions. Folks have been. Been. Been. Sweet. Nice to see you. Waiting on this. One. Mark's doing like training a lot. He's yoga lane kiffin said him said him to set a schedule I don't know Kiffin but no He's his walk is like like he's also he's been for about the last I'd say last year

I think he's done this walk a lot but he's really I think he has absolutely shaped up I mean he's just did look I'm trying to lose weight right And I you look good you feel good you feel good to coach good. That's all I say. There you go. I want also what stood out on the new practice facility today Like that's like wow Jerry you and I were there I'm not sure it's a while but it's They have everything they need right there many can roll up the garage door and right go right to the grass field as well So it's an all-in-one. I think it's very easy For the guys and for the coaching staff in terms of what you see The upstairs area for the alums that can have those opportunities is an amazing place to watch a practice from There you know, it's a second floor, but it's a higher second floor and they're seating there So if you get lucky enough to be in there for spring practice a practice a fall practice

It's gonna be a great place to watch the Texas team work out. That's the one thing I would say I would just say at this it is a beautiful facility a Marcus was there as well today It is not pressurized like the bubble So you know how my ears popped when I would go in the bubble. Yes, it is a good thing But it's not pressure that's number one and so to Jerry's point you can roll roll up the garage doors And let fresh air in so it could be a warm practice indoors or Practice they could do whatever they want and the other thing that I would say about this I think it's kind of cool is now and they made a big deal about it like one of the interview questions when Sark was talking to Evan L. Tyfe and Crystal cocktail during the during his interview of what's it like to be at Texas? This is six years ago and Del Conte said today at the at the rib cutting ceremony that one of the questions was he was asked is now

What's this about you have a have to go a mile to your practice facility and they get bust up there and School bus. Is that a real thing and Then Kevin L Tyfe this is also what happened then about Sark said about three months after he's hired four months after he's hired something like that L Tyfe comes up to him and says Is it really true that we have those school buses in in Sark goes yes and L Tyfe goes we're gonna do something about that and so that's that shows a little bit of the Commitment that the Texas brass have in my opinion When it comes to winning that's the reason the box thing. This is this is a really cool facility I would say to like you can't tell it because my camera is not great But the like the tough all day logo there some of the other things It's it's almost looks like it's leather in person It doesn't look just orange it looks like it's a huge leather sign kind of cool looks very like almost a long one leather

Know what I mean from that? Alright, some other questions here. Just in your road Justin got your text today I believe as well no more offseason. Let's hope the guys come out calm and ready to go What are some offensive offensive and defensive stats? Y'all are wanting to see game one I get each of you guys take one One offensive and one defensive stat if you don't mind It's as easy for me. I'd like to see Texas rush for 200 yards tomorrow Yes team rush for 200 yards. That means they win the line of scrimmage They win the depth battle. You're not gonna get 200 yards or three and four yard gains. You've had some explosive runs I want to see 200 yards on the ground the more and I think Texas is gonna make an emphasis of being physical abroad tomorrow It's a good stat especially Sarc says you know you get what you emphasize and they have emphasized the run game the entire offseason spring and training camp We don't take away Just because the the Texas defense has been good in the offseason training camp and spring ball

We'll take away is one of much champs kind of identifying traits and Part of this philosophy is taking the football away. They were really good at last year in the last couple years leading the SEC in takeaway So taking the football away they can do that With this type of state he's best at considering how much of a veteran presence Brad Jackson has in this offense That would give me a lot of optimism about how opportunistic they're gonna be in the SEC this season I I'm gonna throw one out to y'all because it does not surprise me that Jerry Hamilton talked about physicality because he preached it for about six to eight months after last season Roddy doesn't surprise me you picked turnovers because you've This has been a consistent theme for you for a long period of time Either of y'all said anything about penalties Is that an offensive and defensive stat? Wait, we were talking about discipline a lot that was one of the yeah the pieces right What do y'all think about how do you even track that? Well, I mean it's it less than seven penalties

I guess I yeah, it has to be seven is That's not really it I'm saying like that's a very low that's an improvement. Yeah, it would be an improvement. I think five I was like five five 4.8 to 5.5 for the season is where you is where you want to be That a put you in around 55 to 65 in the country Yeah, you're all lined up on his life. You had one the top five most penalized old lines last year Put you behind the chains a lot. So sometimes it is a type of pill in this too. I mean, yes, all of them are bad Yeah, Sark says that Sark definitely agrees with these like the ones that just yeah the freestyle penalties is he's right clearly Uh-uh. I mean look They've They've changed they've changed the it's 10 yards instead of 15 for Offensive pass and affair so you may see more aggressive wide receivers early in the season

Maybe get a couple extra flags as they adjust to that rule in college football Not saying you will but it's possible the other thing I want to see tomorrow and I'm gonna harp on this I want to see sped it get a field goal attempt. I don't want his first career field goal attempt at Texas To be a three or three of three. I don't care Kill a drive on purpose and let him get a kick. I've said it before You can kill a drive But call a play No, I don't know what throw away play to me. I'm seven. We're up 30 points We're gonna run it up the middle and let him get a 37 yard field goal I do not want the poor spedics first kick if it if it if it played out this way to be a 48 yarder to win Gaming in so how I say he's never had a pressure kick like that in his life He's never kicked the field goal with a hundred thousand people in the stands in his life That's important because when you don't get many chances and you that pressure you feel when the games on the line Pretty important it's not crazy. I actually agree with Jerry on this mountain killer drive thing is crazy

Driving to it, but I would like to make sure that I prioritize hey, let's get our you know Go for it on four of now like no, no, no, let's get out of here because you're not as I didn't do it that kind of thing Jerry I don't know if I kill a drive Beary's a bit of a mask is he would not only want to kill the driving wanted to be on the right I've said if I'm starting this game I would I would plant Easter eggs To full Ohio State so that's kind of crazy too. I've said oh, I would run. I would run 10 personnel I thought four y receiver package out there. I know Sarguss and lack of that runs it But you would force Ohio State to have to address it in practice. It would have to waste time to To waste time to prepare for it. I would throw the wildcat out there a couple of times Why are we gonna run all season nobody knows if we're not great for Ohio States now got to spend five or to Practice periods on it the entire week on just the wildcat which will never use And by just by that alone I thought By the way, if it's successful, they might use it Well, yeah, yeah, exactly but maybe if it's not successful you have already with misinformation forced them with by the way

They only got a certain amount of practice in meeting time to waste some of them. Yeah, that's that's that's the art of war That's Sun zoe right there, man That is the first time that has ever been pronounced on this show by the way No, yeah, you probably got it right. I got it more right than I could that look I think I think from a From a That perspective I've been thinking about it. I think I want 300 yards passion for March Oh, I like that. I want I want some big plays and I know that's more than what people are thinking But I want big points tomorrow. I put 52 up there for a reason. I think You said it right if they're going to reach their Feeling They need the quarterback to reach that ceiling and the only way they're gonna do that is if he comes out hot And we'll see what happens Early tomorrow. All right, one more time. I need to tell folks who we are being sponsored by today not only is it garage beer

Light and lime 95 calories Guys make sure you check it out. That's garage beer light and lime. We're also sponsored by our friends over at the University Texas co-op where broadcasting from right now as well as some of their chief apparel and that is 40 acres apparel Rod B in myself wearing it right now the University of Texas co-op is a non-profit and has been serving the Longhorn community since 1896 Almost as long as I've been alive every penny of profit directly benefits course material scholarships In fact, for the 9000 students will receive course material scholarships this academic year. Let's hear it for the University co-op 40 acres apparel by the way was born inside D.K.R Designed and built exclusively for the University of Texas and Longhorn nation go down to the University of Texas co-op or go to University of Texas co-op.com and get geared up with 40 acres apparel great designs Fashion high quality SPF 50 moisture wicking super good product looks great feels great kind of like you said talk about Sark

Earlier 40 acres is also a proud sponsor of the course material scholarships to UT students or for UT students The y'all ever think you would see somebody wearing a UMass football shirt in the co-op He was a former player that guy was proud for the first time in many years He played there in 2015-16 I think they lost their winning percentage has been about 17% since they graduated UMass football shirt in the co-op Alpha is a good though look what Rutgers brought out of the woodwork You know what I'm asking look what I But no that I got that I looked up the office of coordinated cuz I was like man that office looks really good He's the first year. Yeah, he did he just got a bigger job in our district. Why did you take any somebody had no addition last night He did he's good. He'll be going next year All right, here we go You

What do you your former player talking to you in Marcus? Don't feel like they before the season start not before a game But before like think you were going into your senior year. Oh What were you feeling? If you're a clean leader. Yeah, I said say team. It's different right then my freshman year my senior year It was about Expectations national championship expectations at that time. I became off in 11 win season in 2001 Oh, too was yeah, my senior year my class at 99 class We were supposed to be the leadership group like the leadership council. We were thinking about a national championship Just like this group is I mean that was that was something that we did not hide From that expectation of that standard like we embraced it like hey, we're we're trying to now we did not win a national title But we were good enough to we were good enough to compete for when I wish there was a playoff back then We definitely would have been in the playoff and they would have had a shot at it But I think that's what this group is about that's why I'm saying that these guys are now waking up and going into DKR

With that expectation not every Texas team has realistically believed Now we don't win we got chance to win it all like we're one of the top four best teams in the country. This seem knows that right now Um, and that's how I felt a couple of times those oh one no two teams at Texas And that's a different expedite it's a different burden to by way on your shoulders Because if they go out there and that game is is 10 13 10 at halftime then the fans ain't the fans ain't gonna like it And they might hear someone from the fan long enough as that you hear about what was mac and what was mac happened us What was mac like 24 hours for the season opener? Oh, see was he happy good luck here? Is she pretty but was always optimistic max always been optimistic guy happy like up beat And I think he actually got swagger after I love during the VYU VYU gave him swagger You why gave him a different type of confidence going into the game Because I remember in oh now when I saw mac before the national title game against Alabama And I said this before I'd never seen him that confident. He was bornline arrogant almost

And yeah, I mean before that game which I guess came back to vital but I believe he thought we gonna win this game in Yeah, Alabama ain't gonna know what hit him because he thought I got cold and if we first for people behind the scene say well Of cold and say healthy when they get so I think mac got more confident as he let his teams be player led teams You know, he let VYU take over that team and he let the great leadership the year recruited He found the formula with us. He was still tinkering with it. He was like, ah, the Chris seems like oh, I don't know Chris talk to the media Oh, man never put major now. He didn't really feed anything without to later and once he figured out the formula I mean as we know It was one of the greatest errors in history of Texas football. Yes, absolutely That's what's my research being tamed him with the formula supposedly now. This is the year He's figured it out. He's got the formula. So when you were All right, that's how you felt as a senior What were you for Derek Cooper? Or oh, yeah, or yeah, see that you know, think about it. You know, national championship Yeah, or one of those young guys. What's the difference between when you're a senior and when you're a freshman the night

Yeah, of course season opener. Yeah, first ever game and decay on those guys are more focused on their own job and responsibility, right? They don't get to the macro of national championships I'm the leader of this room all that kind of stuff. Those guys are focusing on executing and really kind of a I can't blow this baby step. Yes, baby step to those guys. Let me just say focus being the moment, right? Just make sure alignment assignment kind of thing and I remember being that that young guy right being out there thinking All right, just don't screw it up, right? That's how you stay on the field. Yeah, you're up and then you give a blown coverage or you Have the wrong leverage or you miss your responsibility And that's how you're taking off to feel then because like him man, I just go to if you just go out then you don't mess up Don't you know, I mean don't have a blown coverage or a brain part you'd be surprised how that Your game will mature into being a good to great play my only advice for Derek Derek Cooper tomorrow Cover with two hands on contact The worst thing you're running back can ever do is fumble on your first carry Like

Oh, maybe mistakes Then what the eyes are telling you the run could be cover with two hands on your first carry ever You've done too much work to put yourself in this position To go put the rock on the on the rug on your first carry be a little conservative on carry one Sometimes some guys try to make the great big play when they get out there It's like no, no, just don't make the big mistake when you get out there the big play will come because you're a great play Yeah, you got great pass around So I don't know why but I'm gonna I'm gonna pull one that's not a super chat Actually for my wife Did Bobby get a new hat today? Yes, I did Yes, I did What here here's a reality I come into the co-op and I can't leave without buying a hat almost like a Like a fiction. Yes, I'm going back there to have you seen it I gotta see what else they've got they've got some good I won't say that Bobby got this we just watch Eli Manning drop a few hundies in here

Yes, we did even in here All right, Rocky for the anticipation of the unknown For the first game is electric and I'm just a fan can't imagine the players Rocky P says 45 10 And the run game leads the charge Oh you Rocky is that exactly what the charm was? at The run game leads the charge Dude that's where Jerry said 200 yards rushing I want to see I want to see guys did being dislodged Oh back in the run game. Yes, reposition the line. Yes, yes Not all right. I want to see I want to see running back running No, I'm sorry because sexist last year running backs had six touchdowns. That's it six rushing touchdowns It's like a hundred twenty-ninth in the country He can be a I want him to be just something you sprinkle on in the running game when you need it I don't want him to have to be the heart and soul of the running game which that's what he was last In the house

Hey I've never seen his book this picture doesn't have a hoodie on it read in a picture Tony I would my walk away tomorrow is arch at 70% completion Boy I just don't know what is he what was he lashes 61.61.4. Yeah, and I can say that was a reason if he if he hits the slants better and the crossing routes better He'll easily be a 64 oh by the way the drop six drop from drop right goes down Yeah, he could get this Yeah, I feel bad for him because that's not how he wanted to start No, yeah, but it is a good win for them. Good win for color. I really Hey, man, he's a bansan. Yeah, you like a room. Yeah, yeah, man. It looks at home there He's getting paid for he's getting paid very well for drop Oh That's not nice Yeah, damn stuff. So it's just saying day 423 style points matter

Yeah, are y'all concerned with style points? I'm not I Am a little I think I think I am too. I think I am. I think I think style points matter in this in this matchup it matters to like Yeah, there's a Like we've seen sloppy 52 to 20 wins or 49 17. Yeah, um, I Want to see something that doesn't the style point for me is it necessarily how great Arch looks or how great cam Coleman looks or how Relic Brown does this or he embossed us something Style point is it doesn't look sloppy. Yeah, that's the one thing you go out and have a sloppy performance tomorrow The chances of beating Ohio State and all pro all of a sudden improving your sloppiness in one week Brought you's absolutely so Style points matter, but it's not so much about individual wows to me It's more about do they look disciplined?

Do they look like? Team that can take some pressure off a sark here I style points on the scoreboard don't matter Because as long as you get the 10 wins on this schedule, you're good in the playoffs So I'm gonna take some pressure off a circle net I mean if you get the 10 wins on the number one or two ranked schedule in the country preseason You're golden there's nobody it's gonna win 10 that's gonna bump you off of that If it's that comes down to the last playoffs spot So I don't think he has that pressure as a coach But performance-wise I 100% agree with y'all It's I think I'm trying to think of the national champions That started really ugly. Yeah, yeah, there was sloppy and ugly early on now Obviously, I probably missed some there probably I'm sure there were a few in recent years But you know when you when you're playing like talking about 2005 texts or even in the end of last year There's a certain place you start at and then you keep getting better From that point and that's why you end up being the the best team in the country

It's because no, no, we started to hit everybody and we finished to hit everybody and that's how old five Texas felt Kind of Indiana felt last year So I'm with you. I feel like they can't be sloppy and by the way sark did imply that they had some sloppy scrimmages He implied that a couple of times he was like yeah, I don't like how any fishing it is a little sloppy for my taste They're explosive a little sloppy. So I'm with that. I don't want to see sloppy football I don't I would all these veterans on the team. I haven't Kevin's over here. I saw him over here I'm in the coop and it's electric game day manana. We made it. Hey, I think this is a true story like Doesn't everybody see like feel a sense of relief that tomorrow is game day? Yeah, America's in a better mood Is in a better I hate I hate American offseason. I hate it because everybody's in a bad mood Right I would just talk about we bicker about football and not judges

We gotta say except in New Brunswick New Bruns not in a very good mood Way on your team. Thank you very much for the super tech. I give an am for everyone that's uh given a super chat today Um, let's what else we had here this one from longhorn frenzy arch with 320. He's he's a runner on me now 3 TDs through the air runs for one Texas 56 to 13 he goes bigger than me All right, I want to show off. Yeah, because I could lead with the pass. We assume he's gonna lead with the run, right? I think it's I think he is gonna lead with the run. I don't know how much though I think that's what Bear I think that that would be an aggressive game The olds point earlier when you said you don't want to see arch run That in particular. I want him to see I want him to run two or three times not not a Predicated run not a design run But a reactive one Because I don't think unless he runs I don't think he

Like activates his superpowers. You know what I told the group I've said that before I think he's got some Josh Allen's kind of like they's one of those guys That almost a run game relaxes him. Yeah, it's running relax. It turns into a football player as opposed to thinking on his head and all this mental stuff I'm with that one percent on it, but I will say I want I don't want to run too much. I want to see the old line holding up Yeah, in in past protection true past protection in true past protection You gotta think that I will say this Texas state if they have a chance. They're gonna throw the kitchen sink at him. Oh, yeah Not to Texas like these adopt the football version of the tiger number five tiger five No doubles no three-puts no bogies on par fives and no bogies with a nine iron or less and no two chips rounds and the sixties will flow so I I gotta just say this I have no clue what that all means I know What is the only part of the super chat was it was tiger five he can't drive for five years, but

Um Why be I just just what popped into my head. I don't know what that stop. But just what popped into my head but But yeah, that exactly no double hit this was it no doubles no three-puts no bogies on par fives no bogies with nine iron and no two No two chips. I mean that's a very efficient round of golf and that will put you in the mid sixties Know what mine mine is no snowmen no eights That No, it's that's my that's my idea of a good round of the golf all right Hey guys, so we got a couple of minutes here before we let everybody go. Thank you all for tuning in today Final thoughts here from the co-op now that football's back cited nervous Go ready for it tomorrow. I'm excited to see The portal is made the first game of college football more exciting for fans Because you're half your roster at least turns over every year Nine starters tomorrow potentially at least eight will be from the portal for Texas

It's it it is really more like a Christmas morning for college football fans because or Christmas day because You can see all the hype videos. Maybe you're at the spring showcase, but come come and play I'm bo-masco I was here earlier way. I mean Tomorrow for college football fans of the first game is when you really get to see all these newcomers and half of your roster for the first time in the Start called it in spring ball. It's when you get to unwrap the presents The guys that you come and see what for fans We don't get a chance to see practice every day. Yeah, it's really game one. Yeah, what about you, Rod? That's just why I think last year 17% of your starts came from transfers. I mean, you're probably going to be at what 40 something percent. Yeah This year It's really exciting. It's just exciting because you know, we know how talented this team is now And I think start and Brandon Harris did a great job in the offseason of Leaving no stone unturned to improve

Hey Don't be fooled by him on the mic on the mic right now He wants to get everybody to play in the cornhole tournament over here He specifically asked for you to go being the cornhole competition over there No, but honestly, I think for for Sart this is a big Season you season because the expectations. I don't think the experience has been this high For a head coach at Texas since I mean Mac. Oh, it might be mac 04. It's when you started to bubble over For Matt Yeah, I would agree with that Right here been at 49, oh nine To that we already won one. Yeah, he was good So it's like we already won one for Sart can one one yet. So I think Logan fans. They love Sart They think shark is amazing. They are grateful to Sart for bringing back the stand

But Lohan fans I only gonna be so grateful so long. They want to see improvement. They want to see the team go further Um, and I think this year's big because it's either it feels like a final four bus I feel like if Texas doesn't they final four Lohan fans are gonna be disappointed I think that's fair It's been a long time since we've had realistically those high Everybody studies this they know that year six is a big year for college coaches at schools Ryan day Kirby Yet year six seven area and it's not always year one two that's very rare, right Bob stupes did it in year two that stuff is rare I mean Josh Texas fan To curb Bobby's hat addiction Look at this here We need you way the rod's gonna take his off Josh Texas

All right, what were you saying Jerry sorry? That's pretty much it. I mean people study all this they know you know, it's like years when you get to that year six points I mean, it's it is what it is yeah, you can look through the history college football and you know I mean like once you get to that point A lot of guys who maybe want the instant impact winners that the highest level meaning playing for national Tyler And you're one or two. That's just rare. It's when you get to that that five six seven area of your of your tenure And at a power programmer You about to have you know with four Four first round picks you about to break four in the top 15 Four in the top 15 so it's all my lowland fans are at this point. They're like well is not going to be this year then When is going when you're going to do it you're going to rebuild it all over again And in a couple of years after this I think that's where lowland fans are right now they're giddy because they know what like Jerry said year six 10 team most talented team you've had so what oh five

This is it I would just I'm kind of interested in this because I also think of like a guy like Phil Fulmer had patent manning and then and then he left to go pro and then want it so it can't it's not People have that the description. Well, no, it isn't exception So my point is people have that perception and then it may not necessarily miss reality All right, Chris, you're supposed to be that guy for us right and it didn't happen Yeah, they get the retool and get the wine and be wild Jim Marvaud didn't get it till the up the scouting department he was behind All right, he's he's it facts to your six and said oh, but things got to change All right, that's gonna do it for this edition of on Texas football's live stream live at the co-op.
