    I understand their reasoning but to lose out on elite legacy kids at a premium position sucks.

    That it do. They're all about the NFL and you can't argue with what Bama has done the past decade+

    Not at all, interestingly enough Sam Cosmi is projected to be a first rounder and Kerstetter could be taken relatively high as well. Add in Connor Williams in the 2nd a few years back and OL development has been much better under Herman so far. But too little too late when school hasn't developed a 1st round offensive lineman in 18 years...

    CB Boyce stepping away from football. Good luck to the young man. Glad to hear he will continue on as a student.

    Yeah, development is the problem far and away, with Herman and Blake's personalities probably not helping either. Getting Cosmi drafted in the first and Kerstetter drafted anywhere goes a long way to starting to erase the narrative that we can't get OL into the league. But it absolutely sucks to miss on them.

    Apparently the PAC 10 is finalizing a conference only season so guessing that would scratch a full 12 game schedule. With the Big 10 already announced, that'd make it 5 OOC games that won't happen for the Big 12.

    If it’s 9 + 1, it’ll be interesting to see which OOC game they’d choose if they get to. I’m sure they’d love redemption at LSU but wonder if they’d elect to South Florida week 1 or UTEP week 3 to get an extra home game since it would only be 4 home games if they proceed with 9+1.

    So, what are the odds that this renovation will be completely finished before any of us ever step food in DKR again?

    %100 for me. I'm not going to be going to any games this year if they are open to the public.

    Haven't been to a game in years but wearing a mask (presuming it will be required) at 3:00 p.m. in September in DKR does not sound enjoyable.

    Really wanted another shot at LSU but oh well. Guessing the only question is whether the Big 12 can get 9 ooc games scheduled for a 9 + 1 format.

    Some internet fodder that BYU could join for a year like ND/ACC which would scare me to death knowing Taysom Hill would be remotely close to DKR.

    Big 12 is voting tonight on scheduling format per 247. Apparently 9 + 1 ooc game is favorite and conference championship game will be pushed back in case games need to be rescheduled.

    Will likely play UTEP before starting conference play against K-State, OU and then WV.

    2022 is a ways away but this is HUGE. Number 1 rated player in 2022 class and being touted as the best Junior QB prospect since Trevor Lawrence.

    No. No it is not, at all. Step back, this is not in any way remotely close to be being sort or almost talking to the guy who lives next to the dorm to etc...

    That is badass, but UT now has about 5 4+ star QBs and 1 OLman.
