re: Texas Longhorns Clinch SEC All-Sports Trophy In First Year of Conference Membership

So far, they have not been champions of any of the big three.
Carefully crafted statement I see.
While many SEC teams win NCs in many sports, the only ones you hear about or really see on this forum are the Big 3.
Let me put it this way, even when Vanderbilt won 3 NC in women's bowling, they did not brag about it. It was only when they won the NC in baseball they bragged.

A team knocking on the door back to back years with unlimited resources is going to have a better shot
Texas has always had unlimited resources, but very little NC in the big 3
I have two Texas-Exs in my family and they agree that Texas's problem is not in a lack of resources but in the boosters. They interfere far more than they should and it ends up costing Texas

Top teams in college for Olympic sports. While it is nice, like people on here have said it is no big deal. I think Florida has won it as well

Texas has a right to be proud, it is an accomplishment that Texas earned. Let them bask in that light, they had a good year.

Three Questions
1) Are you pulling for Texas, Ohio State or Meteor?
2) What has to happen in order for Texas to pull the upset?
3) Do you believe the rumors that Ryan Day is stepping down after the year, because of death threats made to his family after the Michigan game?
1) Texas, you had trouble winning out of the Big 12, the SEC has toughen UTexas up
2) Just play normally, no hype, OSU has the pressure on their side
3) No

I wouldn’t say our entitlement is destroyed. I still have mine I mean, winning NCs is still the standard at UA
give it a couple of years
The fact is Alabama averages at least one NC every decade since the 1920's ( only two decades they did not was the 50's and 80's)
Alabama only allows a non-NC winning coach so long (at most 4 years) and then they are gone.

You need to do more thinking (and perhaps research) on that point.

Just keep believing that this is an easy fix.......
It is not an easy fix, you are correct. However Alabama has proven time and time again that it knows how to correct itself. I will state it again, since the 1920's Alabama has won at least 1 NC every decade except the 50's and 80's (see Alabama fix it both times)

I’m sorry my dude, but if you don’t think there will be a drop off at Bama based on losing the GOAT, NIL and the portal, I’m not sure what to tell you.
If I were a betting man I’d bet my home that the new coach won’t duplicate the type of success Saban had at Bama
Now, I know there are scores of you who believe Bama made the Bear and Saban, and that’s fine to believe it.
But it’s simply not true.
We knew there would be a drop-off after Coach Saban just as we knew there would be a drop-off after Coach Bryant. However Alabama has had 5 NC winning coaches and 4 of them won multiple NC.
If you think that Alabama will not find another NC winning coach you are fooling yourself. !00 years of Alabama football and 18 titles tells you different.

Neither were skull drug by Vandy or Okla. Those two losses deserve further examination and discussion
If that continues to happen Alabama will be looking for a new head coach. As someone has pointed out, we are not an understanding fanbase, willing to watch the program slip for long. 3 years is the limit
But it is also the reason why Alabama has won at least 1 NC every decade since the 1920's (except the 50's and 80's)

Prior to NIL The SEC was by far the most corrupt conference when it came to recruiting & paying players.
The SEC had a distinct recruiting advantage because they ignored NCAA rules while the Ohio State's & Michigan's played by the rules.
In this NIL era the Ohio State's & Michigan's are now doing business like the SEC has done for decades, except OSU & UM have much deeper pockets.
That's why Caleb Downs and Quinshon Judkins are at Ohio State this year instead of Alabama & Ole Miss.
It's why Underwood is heading to Michigan instead of LSU.
NIL is the worst thing to ever happen to the SEC because the Squeaky Clean programs that were hamstrung for playing by the NCAA Rules are now able to play the same "pay to play" recruiting game that the SEC has owned for decades.
The Big Ten is taking over folks,
Don't shoot the messenger, it's just the Cold Hard Truth
If you think NIL is going to save the Big Ten you are wrong.

Their players accept money from runners
They've been accused of paying players by NFL agents
Other coaches in college football think he's cheating
Their players have taken money from coaches on staff
Their players have been accused of taking banned NCAA substances
They had a huge memorabilia scandal
Their coaches have committed NCAA recruiting violations
accused, think, etc..... so no proof.
:rotflmao:
Hear these things all the time about very successful coaches. Does not make them true (or to be honest, false) Until they find proof though, innocent until proven guilty.
However it must frost you backside to realize that Alabama in the last 15 years has won more NC in football than your team has won in its entire history.

Did the teams in the top half of the conference really want to add Texas, who beat Alabama at their place last year
Like every other SEC team that occasionally beats Alabama, the Texas Longhorns are still clinging to that victory. They are quickly becoming a true SEC team.
