NIL money is a bit of a game changer… or has the potential to be.. for Texas.

Had they joined 10, 15, 20 years ago… they wouldn’t be considered elite. Timing is everything. Joined SEC at the perfect time to take advantage of financial resources.

Texas was better than Oklahoma in 2008 and not just because of the H2H win. I was at that game. Despite the loss, that was a heavyweight battle.


If there was ever a year for a playoff 2008 was one of them.

Texas, USC, Oklahoma, Florida would’ve been epic. And all 4 deserved a shot at the title that year.

Now, now, now... don't forget that Texas went on probation as well during that period (1987). Tony Degrate admitted he got 20K from boosters. Texas was the one team cited for violations regarding the recruitment of Marcus Dupree.

Fact of the matter is the whole time Texas got away with a lot of things by using people who had "established previous relations with a player before they were a recruitable athlete".... Texas boosters were able to legally support players through people who lived in the town where the player grew up and knew the player as a kid.

That is how Ramonce Taylor got his car. Financed through his HS coach because of that loophole.

To be fair, this was common practice for hometown athletes in any state because it wasn't illegal by NCAA rule


If Texas was paying players like other schools were, we would have top 3 classes every year. Kind of like how we recruit now in the NIL era.

Am I supposed to? Do you care what I think about your posts? Not sure what you're looking for here. Just skip my posts. Nobody forces you to read my wall of text. The scroll feature isn't that hard to use. Deal with it.

Based on what? The US Constitution? They can do anything they please. You going to pull a Karen and ask for a manager? Take it all the way to the Supreme Court?

If they want to ban your account they absolutely can.
