with 4 players all 3 stars

We’re starting to see all of Sarks down falls as a HC. You have to play recruiting and the portal in modern college football. Maybe there’s a reason he got fired from USC and Washington hint hint.
“He’s not a good HC” said a very wise man

Surely this won’t age like this thread did!

Don’t talk about recruiting rankings months before they close.

Well it was started by arguably the biggest idiot on this board, so you should be feeling pretty good about it.

If Texas fans are ok with doing absolutely nothing in the portal than i’m sure you’re ok with him never bringing a natty to Austin because he won’t

i’m so sorry if the truth hurts. Fast forward a year and just like the All Time greatest Aggie class this situation will be a failure guaranteed

Portal rankings are stupid.

What matters are the overall rankings.

2025 Overall Football Team Rankings

Texas is #1 when you include both recruits and transfers.

I mean ideally you really don't need the portal too much if you're happy with your own recruits. The portal is great for plugging holes but teams that recruit well should be playing the players they developed instead of having to bring in a bunch of transfers. Unless a portal guy is an obvious upgrade over someone already on your roster, there's no sense in bringing in a bunch of transfers for the sake of boosting your portal class ranking.

If Texas hasn’t taken a guy from your team yet, it’s bc they are a JAG and not better than what they already have on the roster

If you’ve added a portal player and Texas didn’t try to get in on him. He’s a JAG, sorry but it’s the truth

If you were recently eliminated from the college football playoff or are still playing… watch out bc Texas is coming for one of your boys…

Texas has the #1 recruiting class.

No need to rely on the portal for mercenaries looking for bags.

As if there is a difference between the two. They are all mercenaries. NIL has destroyed any allegiance to schools. You're an idiot if you think otherwise.

Stephen, you are eaten up with Sark, this is at least your 20th thread about him in the last month. Is it because he was able to overcome alcoholism and become successful? Just because you have multiple DUI's and read at a 4th grade level doesn't mean you can't make something of your life, don't give up retard.

We'll tamper some quality players out during the spring and there's not a god damn thing anyone can do to stop us.

Texas has never really had success snagging the highly ranked portal guys. The ones we have been able to land usually had a connection to the staff or the state of Texas. I don’t know if it’s because we’re cheap or if it’s by design. I think Texas spends more money in the highschool ranks and supplements with portal evaluations they think can fill specific roles. The kid we just got out of North Carolina is a former 5* DT whose floor is a big space eater, but his ceiling is a potential NFL body in the interior. His production just isn’t there currently for the Auburns or Oregons of the world to risk swooping in with a massive offer. Texas has been eating good with those type of portal role players. We also have gotten lucky with local guys balling OOS wanting to return home like AD Mitchell and Andrew Mukuba. I don’t think we land guys like that outright.

The Aggies said the same with the greatest recruiting class in history that they spent $50 million on. The next season ended 8-4. YOU MUST PLAY THE PORTAL to compete. 1/3-1/2 of every recruiting class is gone after 2-3 years. more and more players are transferring as we’ve seen so you cannot rely solely on recruiting. You will learn one day.

Not just recruit, Texas still has #1 overall class (recruit+transfer)
LINK /

Texas was in playoff and not knowing how many players were going to NFL or transfer.

This year’s transfer class is underwhelming (teams are spending NIL to keep their own players, no big time program coach change). Other than DT, not many transferring players are better than what they already have.

They have in the past, and they have this year too, so you can go back to typing in lower case.

Everybody but A&M said that. After it was all done it turns out A&M only spent about $8 million that year.

You really should quit posting. Every time you do you just look dumber and dumber.

What we've learned is the core of the team (the ones that won individual awards this year) this season was made up of players Sark recruited out of high school while the portal only filled depth holes.

How many teams that went heavy in the portal watched the Longhorns be the only returning playoff team and go 3 games deep into the playoffs this year? Please school us more, it's quite amusing.

Until your team beats texas on the field, it is pointless to beat them on the forum.
