    Newsome was one of the reasons some people weren't worried about the numbers crunch with the BU kids coming in. Looks like we will see a few more transfer out before the summers end.

    Not sure where he'll end up but Newsome had one of the more interesting recruitments. Originally committed to UCLA but word was that he immediately regretted it and ended up switching less than 2 weeks later. Newsome likely would have been our starting KR but guessing that he was falling a little further behind on the rest of the depth chart.

    better weather in Austin vs. Waco? They're right down the road from each other, lol.

    and I'd say Baylor has the hotter women. Certainly not as loose, however

    Every University in Texas has good looking women, TCU, Baylor, SMU (Woooo), wherever.

    I should know, I dated all 3 of the ones at Rice.

    No doubt. That drive down 35 to go play on the river with the San Marcos girls happened with regularity.

    My biggest regret in life is having a girlfriend in college. At least she was a hornball, but man.

    Same, except mine was long distance. Can't believe I was that stupid.

    Is that guy on the right a genius?

    From media day:

    Charlie Strong dropped no hints about his Texas quarterback decision...or did he? When asked what the Longhorns would need from their starting QB to compete for a Big 12 title, Strong mentioned "he's going to be young" but has talent around him at RB, WR and on the OL. True freshman Shane Buechele, the current frontrunner, is indeed young.

    That pretty much seals it for me, Shane is starting. Jerrod is still hurt from what I understand and we don't have anybody else of the radar as far as I know.

    If Shane is even average, Texas should win 9 games this season. If he can become another lightning in a bottle type quarterback, then they should be ranked pretty high by the end of the season. I don't know about beating ND at the beginning of the season though.

    Huge pickup for Texas, was really worried about the kicking game this year.


    Texas finally gets its kicker in LSU transfer Trent Domingue.

    Probably the most underrated move of the off-season.

    They also have a redshirt freshman and a sophomore that didn't play last year.

    Longhorns are showing up as the dark horse candidate on a lot of lists which is good and bad I guess. It means you weren't very good last year and you have just enough reasons to be the team in your conference that has the highest chance to turn it around. Not really the most honorable thing to hear.

    Looks like a great pickup, though I am a little bit worried that he was 4 for 6 from 20 to 29 yards.
