We are about 70 days away from the start of a new year for Texas athletics, and that means all Longhorns fans are pining with toxic optimism about the future.
To throw a little fuel on the fire, we answered some of your Twitter questions this afternoon and compiled them below. Let us know what you think.
For the Twitter-impaired, questions are embedded above the @BON_SBNation answers.
@BON_SBNation will Hudson be a horn?
— jason mcmeekin (@jasonmcmeekin) June 26, 2016

@BON_SBNation Shane will be the starter for nd?

@BON_SBNation Jeff Traylor as a big time head coach in 5 years or less.

— Burnt Orange Nation (@BON_SBNation) June 26, 2016
@BON_SBNation Cobb to land thieves?
— David Weaver (@DeWeavNC) June 26, 2016
Buy. Cobb would be a solid add, but if it's true his dad wants him at OU, I wouldn't be surprised if he's a Sooner https://t.co/QJdAftvxVf
— Burnt Orange Nation (@BON_SBNation) June 26, 2016

— Burnt Orange Nation (@BON_SBNation) June 26, 2016
@BON_SBNation the big 12 has the exact same members in 5 and 10 years

— Burnt Orange Nation (@BON_SBNation) June 26, 2016
@BON_SBNation Texas wins the big 12 within the next 2 seasons?
— HookEm (@hookem_texas) June 26, 2016

— Burnt Orange Nation (@BON_SBNation) June 26, 2016

— Burnt Orange Nation (@BON_SBNation) June 26, 2016

Buy. But it might not be top-15 https://t.co/VGP41gERR2
— Burnt Orange Nation (@BON_SBNation) June 26, 2016
@BON_SBNation would you be shocked to see us pull out 10 wins?
— Dark Knight▲ (@_Jnabb_) June 26, 2016
Surprised, yes. Shocked? Not entirely. https://t.co/TlzYwtA1hX

@BON_SBNation Texas wins a NC under Shaka and Shaka stays at UT for 10+ years?
— JamesLeeTX (@jamesleePAT) June 26, 2016
Buy to both. Shaka will usher in a new, world-class arena. Biggest challenge will be for Texas to fend off the NBA https://t.co/tQ07CHtr5Q
— Burnt Orange Nation (@BON_SBNation) June 26, 2016
@BON_SBNation national championship within 5 years?
— Fender Roads (@Zay_Bacon) June 26, 2016
I'll buy the idea that Texas will have the opportunity https://t.co/sWXNFCVd2X
