Yeah I do! Do you think TX Tech is following the rules? He is serious about following the rules. He could care less about winning championships.

I think the big issue right now is we are on probation and TTU is not. A slip up on us now would be levels worse than TTU....you gotta keep your nose clean while on probation...even in this toothless NCAA environment, you can't tempt major sanctions if you get caught doing something.

And seems the NCAA has had some vendetta on us since they tried to get us for the Nico signing.

I think that is all hogwash. People treat you like you allow.

Remember that yesterday was the deadline for players to submit the paperwork. There will be new people added to the portal over the next day or so.

Awww you hurt my feelings. 😭

Well your feelings should be hurt for having such a braindead take.

You have to break the rules to win championships? Huh? What rules? Tampering? We already tamper. Tried to steal QB's when Nico left. Still got a better one. We don't need to blow 6 million on someone like Sam Leavitt to win a title. Get real fool.

No one cares about the NCAA anymore. We tamper too. Maybe not as crazy as some but the NCAA becomes more of a joke every year.

If you’re wanting DW to look into the camera and say that we’re bending/breaking the rules, I can’t agree with that.

If you’re wanting DW to say what he’s been saying as window dressing while letting the staff et al do what it takes behind the scenes to get the guys they think they need, I’m down with that.

There is nothing to gain by broadcasting it.

I don't care but there's really no need for name calling. It shows your own shortcomings not mine.

I never was on board with the Leavitt hype. I agree he's not worth $6.5 mil which is supposedly what was offered. How many of yall in here carry water for DW? That is mind-boggling.

My point is that I shared he wouldn't allow CJH to do what other coaches like Lane are doing ... and a lot of you said that's so dumb. In reality the AD himself confirmed it is all true! He's got CJH riding on a pedal bike with training wheels on the same track with other coaches having crotch rockets.

I honestly think he's telling the truth. He isn't exactly skilled as a wordsmith in front of a camera. Remember his presser after he let Tony V walk over NIL disagreements? Did Tony V get his had slapped by DW for the way he tampered? 🤔 we'll see. Bc Adam sparks isn't done asking the questions.

Do you believe we offered Ty Simpson any money to come play at UT? If so, then he tampered. Ty Simpson never entered the portal. Feel better?

That I don't know. It was never reported that we did. It was reported that Miami did. Heupel's PR team even posted photos of him meeting with high school kids ... of course we all know he went over there to talk to Ty and his parents. I'm sure little Bro was invited as well.

And I think they have up to 2 business days to process paper work/make it public knowledge.

Yes, think about when MM entered last year at the deadline but never officially "entered"

I bet there will be a couple of players trying to enter late tonight to try and force their teams to pay them over the weekend

So Basilio reports it and gets ripped by a bunch of people and then Danny boy confirms it...ok carry on.

Basilio has a cult like following with a portion of this fanbase. I’ve never seen fans act like a media member is some media god.

Also, for the people ripping DW for the tampering comments. Put yourself in his shoes. NCAA hammers them for tampering on top of being on probation then his tenure here is basically cooked. It’s easy for you to say do this and fo that and don’t worry about rules when you aren’t affected by it.
