Description

It seems as if we know a lot and nothing all at the same time. In an attempt to gauge the temperature around the college football landscape, it seems like a lot of battle for position. On Sunday night players, coaches and athletic directors took to Twitter to voice their opinion on the top of playing football. This movement came off the heels of the Big Ten Conference allegedly getting ready to cancel the 2020 season. 
Clemson's star quarterback Trevor Lawrence and Ohio State's Justin Fields joined players from Power Five conferences with the hashtag "We Want To Play." Lawrence has been vocal about players needing to be on campus, he sent a series of tweets pleading his case. As far as the Big 12 is concerned, they are scheduling a Board of Directors meeting on Tuesday to make their final decision on playing football in 2020. 
One rumor on the docket being four Big Ten schools heading to the Big 12 to play football for one season. Bruce Feldman of the Athletic refuted the report on Twitter. The rumored schools were Ohio State, Michigan, Iowa and former Big 12 foe Nebraska. Another report from the Dan Patrick show discussed Texas and Oklahoma to the SEC for one season. Seems farfetched but it would be a fun idea. Maybe the Longhorns could finally get their hands on the Texas A&M Aggies once again. 
The Tony Fields II saga is continuing as Longhorns fans are waiting on his transfer announcement. All reports are trending towards Texas but he has yet to make a formal announcement. It could be due to the fact that a school he was looking at Minnesota is part of the Big Ten, they are set to cancel the season. Also Myron Warren has removed himself from the transfer portal. 
Plus we discuss Longhorns in the NFL, Charles Omenihu and Alex Okafor.
