That's funny, I feel better about the lineup than the bullpen. -

Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out
Was goofing around and reviewing the 2025 recruiting class. Over the years, I've always noticed how certain player's names just sounded like a great football player, or not. Or, their names sounded like they would either be a star, or a bust. So, just for kicks I thought I'd rate the 2025 recruiting class based upon their names. Stupid? Sure. I'll spoiler it so that those of you who have no desire to read the results can just skip over it. Here is the approach I used. First, the scientific theory behind all this. There is none. Or is there? I believe that a person's name can tell you something about who they are. Names comes from historical family tree lineage. Names reflect the parent's styles and beliefs. Names have a certain lyrical sound to them. So, maybe there is some sort of science behind projecting a person's performance based on their name. Second, I identified two predictions for each recruit. The first prediction is their performance relative to their ranking: heavily over perform, over perform, neutral, under perform, heavily under perform. The second prediction is the overall performance level they will achieve in the future: NFL quality or at least very strong starter, starter, play some, play little, bust. The Outcome Range is the potential range of outcomes for the individual, or said another way, how well does their name project the outcome. For example, some names leave you with the impression they will either end up as an NFL player, or a complete bust or anywhere in between. There is a wide range of potential outcomes. It's almost like standard deviation. Other players you feel more confident they will be a starter, but not an NFL player or a bust. That recruit has a narrow range of outcomes. It's about the range of outcomes for that player in the future: Very Wide, Wide, Average, Narrow, Very Narrow. With all of that as groundwork, here are Dbeasy's 2025 Texas Football Recruiting Player Projections. It will be fun to look back on this in 3-4 years and see how incredibly wrong I was: -

Texas Women’s Basketball 2024-2025 - We SEC Ready
Campbell was a great HS recruiter, arguably the lead in getting Sabrina to Oregon, as well as those other top recruits in Sabally, Hebard, etc. But it looks like he's just going to focus on portal recruiting now -

Things that remind you of growing up poor.
I'd still get down with a govt cheese grilled cheese sandwich. When I was in elementary school, the cafeteria didn't take cash. I guess it was an effort to keep kids from having to carry lunch money every day. If your kid was going to eat from the cafeteria, you had to buy "meal tickets". These were punch cards you'd hand the cashier, and she'd punch a hole in a square and hand them back to your teacher. I remember there were different colors for different value cards. The blue ones were the smallest denomination, and the white ones were the most expensive/longest lasting. The kids like me on free lunch got these big orange laminated cards that said FREE in big block letters. The teachers kept track of all the cards, and before lunch every day they would walk around and hand out the meal tickets, and you had to carry them in your hand so the teacher could see them as you walked single file to the cafeteria. Even at an early age I was embarrassed as fuck having to carry the big orange "I'm poor" card.
