Year ONE: establish competitive attitude and start to build for future seasons.
Year TWO: in the running for the Big 12 championship game. Finish the season ranked and play in a high profile bowl vs a quality opponent. Bonus if we win the bowl game to build momentum
Year THREE: with improved recruiting and nucleus, either win the Big 12 or secure an At-Large playoff spot to get experience playing on the largest scale.
Year FOUR, our CENTENNIAL year: Go All- In on NIL (a la TT). Open the season with a win vs LSU. Secure a playoff spot and WIN the National Championship!
Yes, we very well can win NC in both basketball and football in a 5 year span
Gotta win the Texas Bowl to really prove something and keep the momentum going. It’s not going to be easy, but a win would generate some buzz for the fans for next season and also help with the portal acquisitions in January. Huge opportunity to Fitz. We NEED our fans to show up for this.
That’s because any bowl game that is not part of the CFP is a downgrade from the playoffs. Every team playing in a bowl game that is not in the CFP would much rather be in the CFP.
