  1. A 3-man OL class of Turntine, Wright, and Robertson is not good enough for what we’re trying to accomplish here. No shade to those 3 guys. Flipping Lee from a motivated Michigan does not count as a real strategy in my opinion. So what now? Hope for aggy’s class to implode? Cool.
  2. Is OT a position of abundance? Portal overflowing with Texas-level players every year?
  3. I really like Okpala's tape. Sorry for going off topic. https://www.hudl.com/profile/15261697/Kosi-Okpala Mayde Creek has him on the edge mostly but he looks athletic enough to move side-to-side. If he can learn the position, he's going to be a real menace playing MLB at about 6'2", 230.
  4. Well I think we can all agree that what this thread needs is hawt takes from Shane fucking Gillis of all people via Helobious. While we're stirring the pot, is this an OK time to talk about how Tyler Adams, who is objectively a very good soccer player and a guy we need badly, has been pretty fucking mid in this tournament so far?
  5. I assume that stuff like this isn't just idle chatter to make Bobby's subscribers feel better, but is coming from the AD and has a purpose. When Kirby et al have their guys parroting that Texas offered more $$$, this is the return fire. The DTs currently on Florida's roster aren't stupid, they can read.
  6. I know this is a website for Texas fans, and specifically we're on a thread dedicated to Texas football recruiting, and we're supposed to be rooting for only what's best for Texas football and yadda, yadda, yadda. But one thing that really fucking pisses me off is that it seems like everyone, from the ADs, to the conferences, to the NCAA, to apparently even the federal government is absolutely bound and determined to prevent college football players from receiving what the free market determines that they're worth.
  7. Mexico just got robbed out of a 2nd goal on a really terrible offside call.
  8. Final tickets running around $150 including fees for nosebleeds as I type with no score in the other semi. Expect they’ll go up bigly if Mexico wins. No idea on Honduras. Too beaucoup for me. I’ll keep an eye on it and see if they ease up before the game though.
  9. This is how I’ve been feeling. The smart NFL organizations twist themselves into all sorts of cap hell to make a run and then spend 2-3 years unwinding the mess and retooling. Our boosters just got the hat passed to them to land a #1 class, bring in a bunch of key portal pieces, and also retain substantially everyone from arguably the most talented roster in CFB. That wasn’t cheap. Now we’re in bidding wars for DTs that won’t even see the field until Arch is in a New Orleans Saints jersey? I could definitely see people saying let’s actually win something, then we’ll talk.
  10. I like Okpala’s tape a lot. Looks like an ideal MLB to me
  11. MEX-KSA on now. Saudi Arabia sucks.
  12. So we're definitely heading toward stripping US citizens of their citizenship, right?
  13. Reposting on this page. Crowell today. Although I just realized that the dates aren't in order, which makes me want to attack the OTF guys with a hammer.
  14. Jesus that recap article is chilling. The trust destroyed here will take generations to build back.
  15. One thing getting lost in this discourse is that Cuomo was just a shitty candidate. The guy resigned from his last job in disgrace.
  16. Don't forget that Turntine is 5'10" 185 and Surly thinks Ojo sucks in shorts. On a serious note, seems like the big must-have priorities for this cycle are QB, DL, and maybe LB, and they're OK with letting things play out a little more at the other positions.
  17. I think there's strong possibility that the average voter has no idea what they actually want from politicians until they see it. There was a point in time where if you had suggested him to even the most ardent of today's Trump supporters, they would have asked you what the fuck you were blathering about. The guy that sells neckties at JCPenney? Personally, I'm not as progressive as Zohran Mamdani. But staying the course and worrying about what the GOP will say has resulted in getting our teeth kicked in repeatedly for the last decade. How much worse can things get? Fuck it, let's shake things up.
  18. I haven't looked into the data for this race, but do progressives in general have a problem with (particularly older) Black voters? That was kind of the story of the 2020 presidential primary, right?
  19. We seem to have a bunch of guys that kill it at the club level and then disappear when they put on a US shirt
  20. This is funny. When I google Denver Harris: Three different teams in the first three results. Impressive.
  21. Assuming that we can only get 2 of Turntine/Ojo/Lee, that would give us just a 4-man OL class, which seems light. I was expecting at least 5, maybe 6. What other names are out there?
  22. I still cannot wrap my head around How to Train Your Dragon getting a live action remake. Zero interest in seeing that. Evidently I’m in the minority.
  23. Shit. OK, whose turn is it to make the joke? Are we doing a rotation system?
