1. No. 23 Texas: If you looked at the Coaches Poll before reading this post, you really shouldn't have had much doubt as to which school would be ranked No. 1.
Now, before I get into this, I want to make one thing clear. I am a believer in Texas this season. All offseason I've been doing radio hits, and invariably I get asked: "which off-the-radar team do you believe could make a run at the College Football Playoff this year?"
I've answered Texas every single time.
This is a team that could be very good in 2017, but that doesn't mean it should be ranked to start the season. The Longhorns should have to earn their respect before it's just handed to them.
Let's not forget this is a program that hasn't won more than eight games in a season since going 9-4 under Mack Brown in 2012. The last three seasons under Charlie Strong saw the Horns go 16-21 overall and 12-15 in the conference.
This is the same Texas program that has finished only one of the last seven seasons ranked in the polls (that 2012 season).
And they're starting the 2017 season ranked No. 23.
Washington State has won 17 games and gone 13-5 in the Pac-12 the last two seasons. Colorado went 10-4 last season. Boise State has won 31 games over the last three seasons. These three teams can't crack the top 25 to start the season, but Texas can.
Thank god the Coaches Poll no longer helps determine a national champion.

He said he's still gonna take all his OV's. I'm not worried though lol. Our conditioner/trainer Yancy McKnight is really one of the best in the game. He'll get Coburn even better than what he is now

Houston looked playoff ready before the start of the 2017 season. If Herman had another year, they prolly woulda remained top 8 all year. Herman losing 3 games at most this year quote me.

I always thought Herman checked out mid season last year, he knew the Texas job was gonna be open

WR Jaylen Waddle-Jaylen Waddle is the best wide receiver in Texas. Having seen Waddle on multiple occasions, I feel pretty confident saying he’s going to be a serious problem at the next level. You rarely take a receiver over a good linemen, but Waddle is that rare exception…at least he would be for me.

I spoke with folks around Waddle to get a sense of where things are and when a decision could come. I’m told that in terms of a timeline, Waddle is eyeing the middle of the season; possibly a mid-October commitment.

I’m told that Alabama has made a significant move forward in his recruitment. In fact one source said that if Waddle had to decide today, Alabama would be the pick. But he isn’t deciding today and Texas is still very much in the picture for Waddle.

My sense is that whether Waddle ends up at Texas, FSU, Alabama, TAMU will depend a lot on the qb production and the season. I think schools like FSU, Alabam and TAMU will be shown less leniency though, simply because he didn’t grow up a fan of those programs. He grew up a fan of Texas.

Team Note-Everyone is speculating on how many games this Texas team will win. I’ve personally changed my mind about this team’s ceiling on multiple occasions. We all have our opinions. But how about the guys who are closest to the team? How many wins does this Texas staff think they will win this year?

Ask anyone on the staff how many games they will win and without hesitation they will say, “10”. I’ve been told that by so many people coming from so many directions that it’s safe to say that’s the staff’s target for this season.

When Herman came in offering out of state studs, I thought, this guy knows where he wants to be and with that mentality he will get there…in a year or two. But he got there…immediately.

When I first heard that Herman believes he will win “10 games”, I thought, with that mentality Herman will get there…in a year or two. But it seems, once again, he plans on getting where he wants to go…immediately.

Mustapha Muhammad With the recent commitments of JUCO TE, Dominick Anderson and Malcolm Epps, the first question many are asking is, will Texas still take Muhammad? I checked with a source on the Texas side and was told that Texas will absolutely take Muhammad, “you always take a player like that…great player, great young man”.
