My mom fussed at me for taking notes during a donor-only event so I’ll only post a couple non-secrets. Turns out Akana DID have a vision board of herself winning a national championship at Texas after going to one of our camps. We didn’t have a scholarship for her at the time. Not to re-ignite height inflate-gate but Jerritt referred to Swindle as 6’2”, which seems like a good estimate based on how tall she looks next to others. Last Jerritt said those wanting to get involved in NIL should do the Texas One Fund. Obviously Jerritt isn’t involved but knows the people and approves of how they’re conducting it. Yeah, he talked about the potential Spring schedule and then asked that it not be put on message boards. Part of the reason that what's in flux is that teams don't know who's going, who's staying at the school and can't be firm on scheduling.
When asked about what game would they raise the 2022 NC banner, he said that was a point of discussion. With the time taken for raising the banner, shooting off confetti, sweeping up the floor, and passing out their championship rings, they're limited as how much time they can do "extra" things before a sanctioned NCAA game. i.e. a Fall non-conference team.
raise the banner at the O/W scrimmage?

If you can share, was JE referring to players on opponent teams? Or Texas?

I'm not understanding that. Are we talking about (outgoing) player transfers? Ours? Potential opponents not knowing their own available personnel in April?

When I was talking to my wife a few weeks ago I said, "Yeah, ironically Jerritt likes practicing more in Gregory than the indoor facility within the stadium"
And then she looked at me like I was insane. She worked at UT like 15 years ago for their facilities engineering department and still is convinced she knows ALL about UT. Totally disbelieved me that they built additional practice facilities. She believes they only practice in Gregory.
I finally found time to find the video where they introduce the facility, which is buried in the windowless bowels of the football stadium:
By the way, it's not officially located in Darryl-K-Royal Memorial stadium, it's located in "Belmont Hall".
If you don't know UT history, at the beginning, the state legislature created PUF, Permanent University Fund, which is based on some large amount of oil fields in West Texas. Texas got 2/3 of the funding and A&M got 1/3 of the fund (really hacks Texas Tech).
The stipulation is that the fund is only meant for building of "educational buildings". So the football stadium happens to fit exactly on top of "Belmont Hall".
