OK. To summarize this thread, Romello doesn’t like Lubbock and is contemplating a return and some guy thinks there are absolutely no absolutes.

I guess TT absolutely thought they had their man, but are finding out they never did… absolutely.

Still can’t figure how to get absolute zero, partial pressure, and H2O to fit, but I am absolutely sure it does somehow.

My contacts at GT are saying that they can't talk about it 😒, but here's what the rumors are:
  1. TTU made some promises
  2. RH jumped on it (verbally agreed based on a phone call).
  3. Once he and his agent looked it over, it wasn't quite what was discussed and RH wanted out.
  4. RH is currently in discussions with GT about possibly returning (but zero insight about whether there's NIL re-negotiations).
  5. It's very possible that RH is simply using the threat of returning to GT to force TTU's hand.
This came from a "NIL Player Representative" (agent?)...so take it for what it's worth.

This is the kind of hard hitting speculation I live for on this site. And it makes sense.

Yup I expect it’s all on the table either way. Could be genuinely returning to GT due to broken promises, could be threatening a return to GT to get broken promises fulfilled. But it’s not over and that’s newsworthy.

I for one hope we do what it takes to keep Romello. I see next year as our “all in” year, between the schedule, HK/JH/Malik returning, possibly Buster’s last year as OC. Need a pass rush and Height’s probably the best we have on our board.

Not sure what time the bus leaves for the bowl but it would be helpful if he was on it

I saw a update post on Romello and came in here thinking he pulled out of the transfer portal to see the past like 2 hours of posts which have nothing to do with that... slowly backing out of room now
I absolutely understand what you’re talking about. Hold the door for me please.

Why do you think you know more than others? Water only boils at 212F and freezes at 32F at sea level (remember PV only = nRT at STP). At higher or lower pressure those aren't true, so you see, your absolutes are not absolute. I never claimed to be special. I didn't ask you to agree with my philosophy. You're free to believe what you want. But, it actually isn't H2O, its actually hydronium hydroxide (a mixture of H+ (hydronium) and OH- (hydroxide) ions in equilibrium with HOH). So, I suggest you don't argue chemistry or materials with a materials guy. You'll just expose your own ignorance.
Do you believe in any objective facts? Is the nature of the universe subjective to everyone and every creature? Is there anything that exists outside the realm of each of our own subjective reality? What is a fact? What is life? What is the universe? What are atoms? What is 1+1? Can someone murder another person or is it just a subjective reality that the person ever existed and therfore they cannot be murdered? I agree that we each experience the world differently, but that doesn't not mean there is nothing about the universe that is objectively true.

Precisely. This is because we all experience it differently. While 72 degrees is cool to me, it’s cold to my wife. But 72 has certain objective and absolute facts about it. To start with, it is one degree cooler than 73 degrees. Always has been and always will be.

Whether any one of us are here to perceive our own subjective version of reality or not, the universe exists and that is in itself an objective reality.
