  1. I'd love to see it but at some point the game theory for croots says not to join a class with too many other players at your position The following counters would be 30 and I imagine it'd be tough to add more guys past this QB 1 RB 2 WR 5 TE 2 OL 5 DL 5 LB 4 DB 6
  2. Each site has their own rankings and usually writers will use their site's rankings in their articles Most posters on here and other boards use the 247 consensus rankings. They're both five stars on there
  3. Bible verse that Cook got tattooed on his arm (around 7 minutes into his behind the scenes video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32bPUTWqHc4)
  4. "Hey Texas fans, let's get some more trophies" love it lmao
  5. Seems like there's a consensus among our commits on who to be recruiting
  6. Just want to clarify one thing for the thread - Per the Texas state law, NIL contracts can't extend beyond their time on campus. Spoilered the relevant text So any legit NIL contract will have a clause that stipulates that the contract ends if/when the player exits the athletic program. So when guys transfer or go pro, their deals will automatically end. Duration isn't a factor for some of the thoughts in this thread like repping Austin companies and transferring or needing to renegotiate terms once they're in the NFL.
  7. He hasn't OV'd but he's visited a ton and we started recruiting him long before his other top schools. Timeline could move up because of Arch Madness and Derek Williams Jr's commitment (ie LA momentum)
  8. I feel like people are reading way too much into every tweet. I read that as her saying Billy Walton was one of the Sark After Dark guys the past couple nights ('people wanted a commit to announce, here you are')
  9. According to his 247 timeline, he's taken OVs to A&M, Michigan State, Oregon, and Arkansas Has one scheduled for Florida in October. UF isn't doing too hot though so maybe we can snipe it
  10. Williams gave Suchomel this quote after originally telling him (i.e. right before he left Austin) he was going to wait until the Fall : “A lot of things kind of changed,” Williams said. “I recognized the decision I’d been wanting to make. It felt like right time, knowing Arch (Manning) just committed a few days go. Then with all the other players that just committed from the 23 class coming in.” Never let someone tell you momentum in recruiting isn't real
  11. Suchomel says Markis Deal will visit the last week of July when the dead period lifts. Unsure if it's an OV.
  12. Suchomel had a write up on the weekend And some other info taken from his comments
  13. JFC Mike His big Arch nugget was that he saw his uncles last night. Eli tweeted out a photo of them all together And he ended three sentences in a row with anyway
  14. good news is nothing he told a gaggle of reporters at a media day practice should carry any weight
  15. hahaha he wants to see our performance during the season we're so fucked
  16. I can see how it would read that way. Meant it as through the Tech game.
  17. Not to belabor the point, but after the Tech game I charted all of Casey’s deep balls (20+ air yards past the LOS). Not knowing at the time that would be his best stretch of the season. 1/10, 23 yards, TD, 2 INT, 1 PI (stats don’t include: 1 blatant missed PI; 1 play where Marcus Washington fell down with the ball in the air; and 1 ~25 yard fluke completion where he horribly overthrow his intended receiver, who was ~15 yards downfield)
  18. I don't have a ton of answers for you. I just don't want us to tear each other down when it's not warranted. I've heard the coaches told the freshmen OL that they wouldn't sign any transfers during their recruitments. Which makes sense to me when the options are guys like Curtis Dunlap, who ended up at Rutgers. Could they have gone back on that later in the spring once we had some guys of our own enter the portal and the depth issues are literally being broadcast on national TV? Maybe. On defense I've honestly got no clue what we're doing. Recruiting guys to the portal is messy business. I know I wouldn't want to do it and I don't think the folks that are publicly attached to our big initiatives should be the ones doing it either. Maybe that's the piece we're missing, but I'll also add that none of us would know whether we're doing it unless a we did it poorly or we landed a super big fish (and I guess Quinn Ewers doesn't qualify?). Or maybe we would, I dunno.
  19. This is revisionist history. The only school that got an earlier start than us on NIL was Oregon. Don't conflate what other schools are doing now, almost a year out, to what the guys on this board did in 3-6 months. And also don't conflate issues with direction/organization from the coaching staff to poor effort by fans/donors. I'm not saying there are issues on either side, just that the two are not the same. Also, literally everyone is playing by the rules in NIL. There are no more "traditional rules" or gentleman's agreements in back rooms. The contracts are subject to state laws and can be PIA'd. The rules are the rules and they are clear. You can read them here.
  20. Good news is you can do this on your own without having to go through the facade that is charity. I've done a couple NIL deals with Texas athletes. DM me and I will send you the contracts in mad lib form so that you can just fill in names, amounts, obligations, etc. Looking forward to your contribution.
  21. Here's what Anwar said: I can confirm that Texas receiver Marcus Washington is expected to formally enter the transfer portal. Inside Texas was the first to report the news.Washington is not officially listed in the portal. However, barring a last-minute decision to remain in Austin, Washington will leave the Longhorns.In addition, Texas cornerback Jahdae Barron is considering entering the portal. His decision has not been finalized and there is a chance he will stay at Texas.We will keep you posted.
  22. I generally buy the first part. PK has had plenty of defenses that featured attacking DL. Several of those guys were high draft picks. He also usually featured single high looks very prominently, often as his base defense. But that requires a FS with range. The shit we saw last year does not match PK's usual schemes. That said, even if he was trying to compensate for the back end, he did so poorly. It was an absolute failure.
  23. Planning for 2025 is insane. There's plenty of cases that show elite coaches can rebuild programs in 2 years. Talent cycles change so fast in CFB. There's no reason to already have resigned yourself to four years of mediocrity under Sark before maybe competing. Get it together man.
