Good morning! Join us for Coffee and Football starting about 8:15 AM. Well take your questions, talk Texas news including the portal, recruiting and team notes. See you there!

 

@Blake Munroe@Gerry Hamilton@Bobby Burton do you guys ever plan to have anyone on or ever go more into detail on the workings of NIL “contracts” just curious what school collectives do to protect themselves. For example, if (keyword - if) those Micah Hudson deals were true, what happens to wired money if the student decides to walk away? Just pay it back? 

Good morning

Any insight on how Trey Owens did in his redshirt year in practice, film prep etc.?

Texas QBs have missed time consistently for years leading to backups like Arch, Murphy, Thompson, Card, Ehlinger, Buechele etc all getting put into game action off the bench. Owens looked great in the Spring game and seems like a great kid and culture guy. I know there's quite some time before we get to next season but what would the confidence level be in Trey if he was forced to step in at some point next year? Do you feel he'd be comparable to where Malik Murphy was in his starts for Texas in the 2023 season?

Pretty sure said student would be in a breach and could be possibly taken to court? I’m not sure though.

Yeah i assumed it would likely lead to that, but just wasn’t sure what type of “guarantees” or requirements

i believe they said that NIL contracts are fulfillment-based. I.e., a player has to do task x to receive money, for example: social media posts, visits, commercials, etc.

yeah I was more referencing the rumored (keyword-rumored) posts about Micah and how part of his requests to go to atm was a 750k wire transfer at the time of signing. Just wondering what happens to that money now if it indeed happened and he is stepping away from all football activities.
