Texas Recruiting Notes 2022 - Idiotic Slapfights Unrelated To 2022 Recruiting
https://www.mrt.com/sports/article/Amid-signing-day-chaos-SEC-powers-grab-top-16705365.php Aggies coach Jimbo Fisher put together his fourth straight top-10 class. Alabama, which won nine of the previous 11 recruiting titles, was No. 2. Georgia was No. 3, marking the fifth straight year the Bulldogs have been in the top five. The team rankings could change with the next letter-of-intent period beginning Feb. 2. Coaches said the recruiting process now has players taking into consideration where they could make the most money through endorsement work. The NCAA in July began allowing athletes to monetize use of their name, image and likeness. Some schools are better positioned than others in this new frontier and millions of dollars are swirling around the biggest programs.. “NIL has been going on for a long time. It just hasn't been above board,” Fisher said. - This excerpt is from the linked article above. No shit Jimbo. And it still isn't with your program.

2021 Texas Volleyball
The serving problem is a bit of a head-scratcher. At times this season, really most of the time, the serving was really good and much better than previous years. So there seems to have been an obvious effort to improve. But when they got in close, big matches, confidence dropped and the team tightened up and the serving went to shit. I think that is a direct result of playing in a weak conference. It's easy to play loose and free against inferior opponents. The B1G prepares their teams better, because of the constant pressure cooker they play in on a regular basis. I don't know how you solve it. They did schedule some tough non-con games but it's still not enough. Some of the players just really struggle with the added pressure.

Just a huge difference in the serve receive game between the two teams. Between that and their two freshman hitters having the match of their lives…too much to overcome. Also, and I think Salima mentioned it during the broadcast, Texas isn’t used to seeing the caliber of digs that Corn was getting.

I don't know much about Illinois, but I thought Nebraska's block was pretty impressive in that match. Even if they weren't blocking to the floor they were consistently sending the ball back to the Illini side or getting hands on their attack. Seems like there was one rally when the Nebraska block sent the ball back 3 time in a row against the Illini's left pin. I thought Corn looked pretty solid. Their defense is salty and we better slow down their middles. Block needs to show up. I think it's going to be dogfight. Hope I'm wrong.

11.22.21 Coach Sark PC @ 11am
We are one of the most hated programs in the country. The richest, have our own network and perception of being the most arrogant. Now there's blood in the water. All these fucks are lining up to feed. Even ex-players who have a personal bone to pick it appears.

Texas Tech to name new corch
May have something to do with the QB's as well. Mac Jones is really accurate and had fantastic grasp of the offense. Young is extremely talented but probably just isn't as far along yet.

That overall attitude/scenario lines up quite well with the PAC-12, minus maybe Oregon, but not so much with the SEC.- [Game Thread] Texas vs. OkSU - 11am on FOX
Their going to kill us with those WR screens all day if they play off that far.- Anthony Cook
Does he qualify for the Gaskamp award this year? He was highly rated coming out of high school, but pretty much fell off the map and almost transferred. So I think that qualifies him.- [Surly Official] Texas @ TCU Game Thread - 11am on ABC
Definitely Thompson’s worst game, but his receivers didn’t help much. Offense wasn’t the problem though, except in the red zone…- TCU game week.
Casey does a much better job of climbing the pocket and doesn't bail near as much as Card, which helps these numbers as well.- Hey PK -- What would you say you do here?
Yeah, what's the deal with Crawford. I kept hearing how good he looked preseason, and how much upside he has, but he hasn't gotten much paying time this season.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
They're due for some shit to blow up on them. QB controversy/problems sounds like a good starting point.- Casey Thompson
Look it's fairly obvious now that Casey has more poise, confidence and is better at managing the game than Card at this point. But, Sark was evaluating these guys from practice and a Spring Game. It was reported to be a very close call and an extremely tough decision. Sark supposedly went with Card based on his ability to go through his progressions faster, which enabled him to get the ball out quicker and his ability to make accurate throws on the move when things broke down. Card just isn't there yet mentally, might never be, who knows. It's clear now Casey is the starter, but even after the UL game it looked like Card was going to be the guy. You can make the argument that Sark should have pulled Card earlier in the Arkansas game and he probably should have, but I think he was trying to see if Card had settled down after halftime. Posters claiming Sark made a monumental blunder by going with Card is just fucking stupid. But overreaction is what we do, so carry on I guess...- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
It's not possible to simulate big game environments with a hostile opponent, on the road, in practice. Casey has maturity and composure, stuff that doesn't show up as well in practice. Card's just not there yet. Kinda like going from the driving range to the golf course. I hit it so well on the range...what the fuck happened?- Texas Recruiting Notes 2022 - Idiotic Slapfights Unrelated To 2022 Recruiting
I watched the Midland Legacy vs Amarillo Tascosa game. I couldn't figure out why Tascosa didn't use Everhart more. Every time he touched the ball he looked like he could score. He had 4 rushes for 80 yards and 5 receptions for 92 yards, with 1 receiving and 1 rushing TD. Pretty efficient.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2022 - Idiotic Slapfights Unrelated To 2022 Recruiting
Glad to be wrong on this one. Bad read. I thought there was some frustration coming from his side when there were a lot of picks coming in for Texas.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2022 - Idiotic Slapfights Unrelated To 2022 Recruiting
I mean, isn't this a pretty big give away. Unless he's trolling, which he doesn't seem like the type.- Post-Game : We Won. They Lost. ULL is Ass
I don't know what the deal is with Collins but I hope he plays more this season. His lack of playing time was the biggest head scratcher for me, assuming there isn't something going on with him that hasn't been released. Jett was having a tough time holding the edge and was being handled fairly easily by whomever was blocking him.- 2021 Texas Volleyball

Tree has a good setter. Our middles are confused and consistently late on the block.- 2021 Texas Volleyball
