Exactly. We need to close. And of the last 12 seasons or so, how many seasons have we overperformed and beat expectations? Only once (2016) have we ended the season ranked better than we were from preseason (started unranked, finished 16). In 2017 we started 21 and ended 24, so about the same. But really only once in that time period have we overachieved from expectations. The rest has been disappointment or an expected bad year. That has absolutely got to change if we are going to be a serious program again. We can't keep tripping over our own feet continually.

Meh... grown men still jerk off to high school recruits in football and basketball. The "5 stars" are still lusted over and obsessed with from grown men in Alabama and Texas. that isn't going anywhere. There is a list of "generational" prospects that went to Kentucky that suck in the pros, that we still talk about.

My very last hope is that before this turns into fucking LIV golf, that university presidents use the power of the front of the jersey to bring some sanity back to college football. The president of Alabama has that power. Fuck Greg Sankey who is just a whore for ESPN. Fuck him. He doesn't run a major university. There are people with more power than him that can pull the plug on their school and the state tax payers getting in bed with the fucking saudis for fuck sake. It will take the presidents to fix this. The NCAA is a myth, a hologram, AI at this point. Fake.

Big10 and SEC were already in discussions with private equity. It ended with push back by both conferences.

RedBird Capital and Weatherford Capital, who have formed Collegiate Athletic Solutions (CAS) which was trying to get the Super League proposal through made pitches to both conferences.

Covid or not- TX2VT or Antartica2VT would have been grand if.... we signed someone other than another high 2 star RB. We signed a real DT at some point. We signed a WR that could actually play in the ACC. We signed a 3 star texas OL that was actually big and mean and played OL in high school. You get my drift.

Praise be to Portal!

And also because they have to comb through the player pool to find the most extreme edge case that they can use to get sweeping change for the entire infrastructure

another comment to add that i think the "6 hour radius" remark was mostly red meat for the fanbase after the TX2VT strategy that was a) largely fruitless and b) widely panned accordingly. Whether covid ruined that strategy by killing our big planned spring game recruiting event, or whatever, it was a little bit braindead to put a lot of eggs in that basket. even if it made sense to work existing connections the staff had for talent, it did not make any sense whatsoever to do that at the expense of the in-state talent and the long-standing connections the program had.

Of course he does!
