Going to need an elite coaching staff to overcome being in the bottom half of talent year in and year out. The highest ranked big12 class checks in at 26 this year.

Dumb post
We took a much smaller class because we took huge classes the prior 2 years. Only so many seats at the table. We had the most freshman minutes played this year than anyone. And most 2 year player minutes.
We’ll be just fine

We have 81 fresh/soph on roster (over 8k snaps this year). We're not losing as many guys as of right now... that plays a big role. Stick to philosophy want to build the program from HS

I vote you keep doing what you are doing.. I think Venables is ready to turn the corner this year..
I also like the 113-37 total score over the last 3 years..
+76 Margin = Texas beats OU by an average of 25 points a year
49-0
30-34
34-3

Go ahead and brag. When we are mostly or fully manned we beat you more times than not. You beat a cripple twice, congrats!

All we needed this year was an offense…..
We just got one…..
Good for us …bad for you….

Yeah so many recruits flipped at the end because you wanted to have smaller numbers huh? You have a clown coaching staff and the kids are starting to figure it out. V and all the other nepotism hires single handily set OU football back a decade. Enjoy the ride.

Dude I remember a game when the Miami Hurricanes dog walked your team like 45-0. Took you years to recover from that

1991 Cotton Bowl
Miami 46
Texas 3
It was by far the coldest game I've ever attended and the beatdown was even worse than the score.. Just absolutely brutal..
1st and 40 after 2 personal fouls.. they wouldn't even need 3 downs to get the 1st.. they could have named their score that day..

We can build from HS but it can bite you in the arse like JA did with us. Too much NIL for unproven talent is not good business

Next year is a make or break year for Venables. True freshman are going to have minimal impact next year. I believe they are allocating NIL for impact portal players.

Exactly. Already have a lot of young players so wanted a smaller class and go big in portal for experience at certain positions.

Things are still unfolding this year though…we got our highly touted offensive lineman to commit and flipped a qb to OU… tough to know if this is a sign Arnold is gone next year…he was kind of a bust overall.

Hopefully you recruiting a QB with Arnold hitting the portal.

You are now allowed 20 extra players so this doesn’t work

The best defense I’ve heard for Brent as a head coach this season is his recruiting. I’m curious what they’re going to say next season.
