Both Indiana guards (one from Austin) have eligibility and they signed Brunner 👀👀

I promised I’d stop being mean to flood because I’m a man of my word but not shot this is what sark and flood had planned in the portal for OG they are about to do what they did last year NOTHING

The only shred of hope now for me is the potential news of the Indiana OG maybe coming home that's been referenced above.

Seriously of all the OL he’s the least to worry about. He’ll be back to full strength well before the season starts.

I’m assuming we’ve been in contact with some of their agents for weeks now. Waiting for a non CFP IOL to hit the portal this whole time while the others get signed would be an odd strategy

Folks, the Goosby injury is a clean up, not reconstructive in any way.

It’s been a known issue since before A&M, it just wasn’t public.

There are two DBs who have to have similar procedures before spring as well. 

Saturday Morning:

- As we have been reporting, there is a lag between when a player files to go into the portal and when his name actually appears. The lag is typically two business days. So while the portal officially closed to outgoing players at 11:59pm last night, there still could be some uncertainty surrounding a few current Longhorns.

- One of those players you can cross off your concern list is freshman defensive end Justus Terry. Terry is staying at Texas for the 2026 season. Terry was one of only a few Longhorns who had not made a final decision as of late yesterday. But he re-signed with the Longhorns.

- We are told that at least one Longhorn has filled out the paperwork to enter the portal, and did so very late yesterday. Furthermore, it was a player who was previously reported as staying.

Texas would like to keep the player so there is going to be some time here to see how things evolve.

Guards guards guards are all that matter at this point

Previously reported as staying or previously entered the portal and withdrew? Starter?

Losing players instead of getting that mystery guard flood needs to be done so

Goosby got surgery in his shoulder and might miss two months, Anwar is saying

Not a big deal that’s plenty of recovery time

Just running out of options that are actually in the portal with Bah, him, and the West Virginia guard committing in the last 24hrs. Portal Go Fish has not worked a whole lot yet aside from Siani really. 

You ever think that maybe they evaluated these guys and didn’t think they were worth a hit pursuit? Maybe they have other options that are better or maybe some guys already on campus might be better?

This staff clearly hasn’t sat on their laurels this year so it’s telling that they didn’t push for these guys. They played a lower level of competition and maybe from the tape the staff thought they wouldn’t hold up in SEC play.

Stop your damn hand wringing. It’s getting old.

The prevailing thought at Indiana is one of the three guards will shift to center next year to replace Pat Coogan.  I'd bet on Bray Lynch (the one from Austin) moving to center next year.  During the Oregon game, Coogan had to leave the field for a play and Lynch took his place.

Can’t wait for the signing of this mystery guard, might end up being a similar situation to Siani where the whole signing just comes out of nowhere
