  1. In attendance:

    1970 UCLA - Cotton Speyrer TD catch with ~17 sec left to preserve the win streak that ultimately went 30 games.  My Dad was ready to throw in the towel and leave, but my brother and I said no way.  Met up with a friend at school on Monday who had been at the game and he said they heard the roar of the crowd from outside, big mistake!

    All my others have been mentioned many times.

    Update on the greatest recruiting class of all time:

    Looking back at The Greatest Recruiting Class of All-Time, HOLLAAAA!!!!:

    Walter Nolen - gone

    Evan Stewart - gone

    LT Overton - gone

    Denver Harris - gone

    Jacoby Mathews - gone

    Anthony Lucas - gone

    PJ Williams - gone

    Jake Johnson - gone

    Smoke Bouie - gone

    Marquis Groves-Killebrew - gone

    Chris Marshall - gone

    Bobby Taylor - gone

    Ish Harris - gone

    Ethan Moczulski - gone

    Shemar Stewart - stayed - leaving early - draft pick

    Gabriel Brownlow-Dindy - gone

    Conner Weigman - gone

    Enai White - gone

    Bryce Anderson - stayed

    Kam Dewberry - gone

    Le'Veon Moss - stayed

    Malick Sylla - gone

    Donovan Green - stayed -got fat and slow after being hurt, getting married. rumored to be leaving in winter 2024 window

    Hunter Erb - gone

    Martrell Harris - gone

    Theo Melin Ohrstrom - stayed

    Jadon Scarlett - stayed - 8 snaps all year

    Jarred Kerr - stayed - 35 snaps all year

    Noah Thomas - stayed

    Mark Nabou - stayed

    21/30. Moss, Nabou, Ohrstrom, Anderson, Thomas are the only true producers to have stuck it out. Anderson was a borderline 5 star and now might not be drafted. The others were mid-to-bottom of the class and have outshined the heralded highly ranked guys. This is the kind of class that destroys a program. 

     

    And I thought our 2019 debacle was bad (and it was bad), this is truly remarkable.

    I really want to hear the story about how Texas caused the death penalty. Texas was one of the few SWC schools that didn't get some kind of major probation at this time. Aggy was on major probation in three major sports and by rule of "lack of institutional control" should have gotten the death penalty. The only thing that saved them was that the NCAA saw what the death penalty did to SMU's athletic program, which was destroy it. The didn't want to do that again and Aggy survived.

    The only thing Texas got in trouble for was when Marcus Dupree was on his recruiting visit to Texas, he walked out of a Western Outfitter store wearing a pair of full quill ostrich boots and the store clerk threatened to call the cops, so the assistant coach with him had to pay for the boots.

    It was great that after Dupree went to OU, that in the Texas vs. OU game that a Texas linebacker not only knocked Dupree out of the game, but completely out of college football. He surfaced later in the USFL football league.

    It was Richard Peavy, a DB.

    In terms of transfer help for the following season, aren't we by rule limited to non-SEC programs? That obviously still leaves a ton of schools but eliminates some of those most likely to have major talent stuck behind elite starters. I guess we can still try to raid the B10, B12 and ACC. 

    For football there is a fall transfer window and a spring transfer window.  SEC teams can take a transfer from another SEC team in either window, however, if you take one in the spring window that player is ineligible for the upcoming season essentially eliminating the spring window as an option.

  5. My favorite Brumley memory is the Michigan game at the '83 CWS, we won 4-2 and all of our runs were provided by a Brumley grand slam.  I am saddened to hear of his passing.

    RIP Mike Brumley.
