Bond is a top end slot receiver. He will do very well with Ewers throwing to him in Sark’s offense. You add in the money and fringe benefits Texas’ NIL collective put on the table, it was a sensible choice.

I think DeBoer will be better for the WRs but he doesn’t have a proven QB on the roster. He was not sure about the offense with Milroe and almost left before Saban retired. He decided to bounce when the GOAT retired.

It sucks. Sometimes you’re taking GT’s best skill player or Vandy’s best OL, sometimes Texas takes your best WR. Thankfully we’ve won more than we’ve lost in the portal and I hope that trend continues. The sport needs fixing but for now it is just cope with it or die.

Isaiah Bond, TYFYS and good luck.

Now that this is over we can focus on the folks in the room.

Absolutely.

I coached for 20 years, so I understand business decisions in sports. These guys have generational wealth hanging in the balance, and it's all very fragile and fleeting. Being in the right situation, staying healthy, and proper development are crucial.

If you guys are fine putting an Alabama signee on the bench to take a portal player from GT, UGA, or wherever, then don't get pissed when a player puts Bama "on the bench" to go to elsewhere.

I promise you Bonds commitment to Texas is a lot more about Jalen Milroe than it is our new coach
