Let’s do this!

Powers did a lot of great things and was a Great Longhorn. RIP and Hook Em
-
Absolutely.

I would start with Keith Law’s book and go on from there. For a somewhat different approach, Ron Shandlers baseball forecaster is a good read if you can get through things with a fantasy baseball approach. It can get pretty deep at times.
-
I have made it through the first two episodes. Pretty good so far. I think it might make me pull more for Danny Ric more this season. Just a good dude.

I was thinking the same thing. Terrible timing for HBO. -
They had a good racket there. The amount of ads I have heard on Sirius/XM is astounding.
-
Good on you PCH. Sending positive vibes your way.
-
I agree with others in the thread regarding Ryzen stock fans. I have the 2600x, and the fan does a great job.
-
I agree. He has some good stuff out there, and it is great to see him use the platform.

Great to see his progress. [emoji1591] -
Awesome.
-
Cool.
-
Haha. Full disclosure I live in Champaign, and I was shocked when he committed to Texas. Seriously, the talk up here was that he was Illini lean the whole way. Not sure how it all flipped but I was not shocked to see him decommit.
-
Lol, I could see it but man Illinois isn’t sniffing the type of classes that Ole Miss had.
-
Scholz. We will just have to agree to disagree. Trust me, I can be the biggest dipshit in the world. I just think there is too much at play/too many ties here to automatically jump to cheating.
-
Not a fail. If you cannot see the impact that this will have, I cannot help you. You also think that a team that cannot crack the top 50 in recruiting, and will not with Mookie, are cheating. Not much proof in that pudding.
-
And I am still waiting on your receipts from your earlier comment, hoss.

-
So by your logic, the underdog never wins? The big guys never get outworked? Maybe they are paying. I don’t give a shit if they are, but being obtuse is thinking that this isn’t the game that gets played every day.
-
What are you talking about? Are you saying that Mookie was not considering Illinois before he “magically” flipped? Illinois was the first school to offer him. He took multiple unofficial visits to Illinois before his official visit. Illinois offered him way before we did. Illinois was always in the mix for Mookie and that % grew when Patterson was hired on at Illinois.
-
You can be one of the heavy hitters and still lose the game. This is seriously not hard to understand.
-
Maybe because other schools gave better offers?
-
Sure, we would be amongst the heavy hitters (and we are). But many other schools have similar alumni.
-
Oh sure there are some, but there are too many connections on this one for me to ignore. My guess is that he saw the competition, and wanted to go somewhere were he was not going to be recruited over. Happens frequently.
