Eh not really. Doesn’t touch recruiting, doesn’t touch bad business dealings, doesn’t touch our Big 12 exit.

It’s more like what someone who has not idea why we were melting would assume is the reason why we were melting.

Okay, so we're to assume you'll perform as well as A&M because we're going to assume you'll have a heisman level QB. Makes sense

That is not at all what I said.

We're still several years removed from even playing in the SEC. I have no idea what ours, or any, of the the teams in the SEC will look like in 2022, '23 or whenever the first year we play will be.

I'm just saying it's ironic that according to everyone it's a foregone conclusion that Texas will be automatically in the bottom tier when the most recent examples of newcomers show the opposite effect.

You have a 2-7 record against TCU since the last realignment.

I don't know if they knew his name in the big 12 or not. I know Oklahoma knew his name when they played A&M in a bowl game. I thought I was watching a track meet, the way Manziel was running through and around Oklahoma's defense. I don't remember the score, I am sure the sooner guys can tell you.

Dallas media has always been ant-Aggie/Pro-UTA.

The THSCA and high school players generally prefer OU/A&M over UTA nowadays - they'll have to start winning if they want to get back to relevance.

You've gone through 2-3 roster cycles without UTA doing anything and HS kids have just seen a mostly .500 program in the Big12.

Not sure Sark is the guy...their staff is lightyears ahead of Herman though so maybe.

refute the arguments

In complete seriousness, why?
We’re not “scared,” but there’s zero point in saying so.
The same tired and lazy arguments will be the result(s).

Apparently we’re the one university in the country who can’t head for greener pastures without being “scared.”

As for this agenda-laden reporter printing his opinions as fact ... not much to say.
He’s wrong.
But he’s written the exact type of article A&M haters love.

That's been Engle's shtick for years. His audience is a bunch of Big12 homers and pumping out anything they want to hear is good for business.

He was opposed to A&M's exit and wrote that tu would rule the state and lock us out on recruiting...probably even stole language from Dodds and his "sliver of East Texas" bull shite.

After a decade of failure in the Big12, they come to the SEC and this guy now explains how tu will once again rule the state and lock us out on recruiting.
