  1. Mac Jones at QB, Najee Harris at RB, Davonte Smith and Jalen Waddle at WR and Dickerson/Leatherwood/Neal on the O line. We are on our way to building something like that at UT hopefully.
  2. The other name for that is the Alabama Offense when Sark was there.
  3. All of that versus the alleged $300K from Aggy. Dumb question but can a player that signs a big NIL deal pay other players with that money or is that against NCAA rules. Just wondering if a QB got a million dollar deal and decided to give $100K to a WR to come play with him would that be allowed. I know, I know no kid is giving up that kind of money but I was just wondering what the future of NIL may look like if kids start paying other kids if they get crazy money.
  4. This is what I am most curious about. Does Ewers have some long coat tails to bring in WR talent. Maybe his coat tails have already been on display and that is why the O lineman have been committing already. We will see in the next few days hopefully.
  5. Yeah, they can have Dewberry and Harris if we can have Perkins and a Stewart flip. Plus the 2 more OL we are going to get to commit.
  6. Let’s flip Weigman to be Ewers “clipboard holding, back up QB bitch” just for the fun of it.
  7. I may have missed this somewhere else but I just turned on Chris Wallace Fox News show at the end and he announced he is leaving Fox. I consider him one of the few decent people at that network and he seemed to be somewhat less biased than most. Maybe this was discussed already as I have been spending way too much time this week in the recruiting forums which isn’t helping my sanity any better than spending time in the cloak room unfortunately.
  8. Does it really matter? Whomever is wrong will just say the player changed his mind last minute but their intel was correct. Bunch of con men is all they are.
  9. A good business model would be to charge people $60 a year to decipher that vague info that they put out. You know there are suckers out there that would pay for that.
  10. If Ewers doesn’t sign with UT I am going to start posting pictures of Vegan Tofu CFS with creamed cashew gravy all up in here to spite you all.
  11. Honest question. Does anybody have any recent examples of a D coordinator or O coordinator leaving for a head coaching job before NSD and it has zero effect on their current recruiting class on that side of the ball? I really don’t know the answer but I can’t believe a recruit would agree to go play for a coordinator and then be happy when said coordinator leaves the school before they even signed on. I know, I know… bags of money, but in all seriousness wouldn’t some of these defensive commits consider another school at this point? I don’t mean just Texas but Alabama, Georgia, Ohio St., etc… or is A&M just such a awesome place to be with their recent history of football dominance and their prime location known as one of the most beautiful place on earth.
  12. Honest question. What happens if Elko gets the Duke job? Do all of these D recruits ignore the D coordinator leaving and stay at A&M or open up their recruitments like happens to every other school in the history of forever? I found it interesting when that 5 star OU recruit from FL flipped immediately to A&M this week without even getting schools like Bama, Ohio St, and GA involved in a new recruitment. These guys must be cheating at the level of SMU back in the day compared to everybody else.
  13. Please take these Ewers/Recruiting comments to the Food & Travel threads. Jesus.
  14. So Clowney and Simms along with Vince were great college players. Nkemdiche, if I remember had tons of injuries unfortunately. Gary was a good player at Michigan but not dominant. It seems if you can get a kid with a 1.00 score there is a good chance he will help your college team based on history.
  15. Clowney and Simms were pretty dominant college players if I remember correctly. Lawrence seemed to be decent at Clemson but I guess our standards at UT are higher than theirs.
  16. Um, the A&M recruits aren’t getting paid under the table or getting bags. They chose that school because of A&M’s great school spirit and the wonderful students and the great location and the dominant 8-4 season they just had. It’s quite obvious isn’t it?
  17. $2.99 for a meal in college? Nice humblebrag. I used to go to the Red Lion Hotel for their free buffet if you ordered a cheap beer. Carved ham and whatnot for free was pretty good. Did that for like an entire summer in Austin.
  18. Good to know. So how do I avoid the 20 minute line at Chick Fila that seems to be there all day long?
  19. Not sure if this belongs in this thread but it seems fitting. We kept my kid home from high school today because the principle sent an email last night to all the parents showing writing on the boy's bathroom wall that had today's date and said, "you will all die" or something like that. They wanted help if anyone knew who did this. Maybe we are too protective of my kid, but I wasn't comfortable sending him to school just in case that graffiti was some crazy kid who could show up at the school with a gun or something. Terrible times we live in.
