  1. He looks to be a top 200 type prospect at this point - https://www.on3.com/db/chris-stewart-241113/ And he looks fast - http://www.hudl.com/video/3/18159454/6509ae9dd45eb505983f2af7 If nothing else, I trust Sark and the staff to evaluate his position well
  2. Sounds like they've found their very own Steve Patterson \
  3. They definitely did. I married one of the bartenders (no pics, perverts)
  4. Eh. Would've been a solid get but I like Rickey Stewart better. It's not like we're hurting for bodies at RB.
  5. https://www.sportskeeda.com/baseball/fact-check-did-florida-baseball-coach-s-affair-cause-death-three-people-kevin-o-sullivan-new-wife-s-wild-romance-examined It's coming from some Barstool dipshit so...
  6. But maybe DeShaun Foster actually gives a shit about recruiting? I don't know anything about him except that he was nominated for the Broyles and that he has to rebuild Kelly's mess from scratch
  7. In Danny Young's defense, it's not his fault Tom Herman decided to use him to run a bunch of sweeps he was very ill equipped for on 3rd/4th and 2. He wasn't Henry Melton athletically (who is?) or even Cody Johnson physically, but maybe he would've been a little better with a different coach
  8. Glad to have this kid. His rating seems out of synch with his offer list
  9. It's all fun and games until Russell drops 400+ yards on them
  10. Jesus Christ. If I look like that in 2 years, I want you all to kill me. Seriously
  11. I'm not sure what's more hilarious. LSU fans whining about other schools paying players or their strange sense of entitlement towards Texas HS players If I was stupid wealthy, I would spend obscene amounts of NIL money towards taking the best 3-4 players out of Louisiana every year. The LSU tears would be worth every cent (and getting Reggie Wayne and Ed Reed type players would be a nice bonus)
  12. So it's Ferraris and the city of Austin vs. a nice, refreshing dip in Bryan's finest power plant cooling pond. What's a recruit to do?
  13. I may need to go grab a Kumback Burger this weekend. It's already been too long since my last one
  14. If Rivals has one thing at all going for them, it's consistency. They consistently offer the absolute worst takes out there. We could have just taken Bond and the DTs and that'd be worth at least "B" for me. Everything else - Golden, Bolden, Niblack, Mukuba, Moore, etc. - is found money. And not an insubstantial amount of found money.
  15. Holy fuck, do we really need Mitchell to not go the way of Taylor Bible. He's just too important, talented, and fills a crucial need (just like Bible, unfortunately).
  16. Who in the holy fuck thought that this would EVER be a good idea? It sends SO many wrong messages and reeks of John Sharp. It's worse than their initial SEC commercial. Just atrocious and atrociously designed. God damn, those fuckers need to get a life, starting with a real identity of their own. I mean, it's their only hope of ever accompliishing anything of note not involving "inventing" maroon vegetables (that began their existance as maroon until we selectively bred them to be orange because orange will ALWAYS be more marketable than maroon, anyway) So of course, it will never happen. I'll bet they just claim credit for "inventing" maroon beets or something.
  17. Guard Malik Presley? 6'6" is right in line with what we know Flood wants but the young man looks like he's going to need about 5 years in the weight room before he's ready to take on any nose tackles Disclaimer: (I'M KIDDING! And doing it poorly. Please don't neg me to Bolivia, basketball fanatics. Looks like a solid add).
  18. Did reading that name cause anyone else to simultaneously smile and picture Darius White flat on his punk ass back, staring at the ceiling, and missing a few teeth? And all of it being VERY well deserved? Cobbs may not have done all that much on the field here but he'll always be a legend for that litttle "rumor" and I hope he lives 1,000 years. Edit: I'm afraid I must request, NAY, DEMAND, a Longhorn Legends short on that incident during the last few months of the LHN. It REALLY needs to happen. That and something on Texags' documentary on Brandon Jones and Tarp/Looch straight up arguing and rage pouting with Malik Jefferson after his commitment ceremony 🤣
  19. I'll say this for Landon Rink. His motor does NOT seem to stop. And that's about the only good thing I can say. A little bit like Poona Ford.... ...But with none of that talent.
  20. Ok. this is amazing. No one knows THE DEFENSE??? Shouldn't like AT LEAST 55% to 60% of these guys already know this system inside and out since, you know, THEY PLAYED UNDER IT? Some of them for several years. How is the D being unfamiliar with Elko's system even remotely possible? The offense, I sort of get. The K-State O is not terribly complicated but it's at least new and like nothing any of these players have ever seen. And that's with the objective fact that they don't have more than 3 or 4 (if that) of the type of players they ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO HAVE to run it properly. Their OL is a walking woodchipper for A&M QBs and RBs. Klein might actually get Weigman killed on the field this season. Moss and Owens seem... unstable/unbalanced and HIGHLY likely to average like 2.5 ypc behind that shitshow OL. When that starts to happen, a transfer or two would not shock me in the least (unless they have to bring out MORE huge money to keep one or both of them). I'm also kind of hoping for a LOT of QB power calls - 6-12 per game - behind that absolutely putrid OL. It's not that I WANT to see Weigman get hurt. I just know that him being seriously injured in that offense is basically inevitable and it's going to drag the Aggies down into the deepest depths of despair since the Kyle/Kyler/Kylest incident and our SEC announcement. So let's just get it out of the way early so we can enjoy the misery as long as possible. You could also call it morbid curiousity about how many hard hits he can take running that play. I've got the over under at 5.5. Then again, maybe it isn't impossible at all for the players to know about either system thus far, Elko. Maybe, just maybe, the team you've inherited (the 53% or so that didn't transfer as fast and as far as they could when you got there, anyway) and then "rebuilt" using second, third, and even fourth rate castoffs... excuse me! I meant to say "highly touted transfers from low end P5 teams, G5 universities, and DII schools." Anyway, maybe this team that you've put all your time, effort, and "talent" into building just sucks complete ass. Maybe they won't ever be ready to compete with anyone decent in their current form no matter what system you employ. In fact, maybe it would be better to just nut up and let Moose Muhammad run the wishbone as QB with Moss and Owens as the backs, Amari Daniels as the FB, an Donovan Green and Noah Thomas as X and Y/the TEs/the WRs/whatever you want to call them. It still wouldn't work but at least Weigman would get to live to see 32 and it might be kind of fun to watch. Plus, it kind of worked for Georgia Tech and you all have SUCH AMAZING, INCREDIBLE TOP 4 5 6 talent, you're guaranteed to pull it off. If nothing else, I'd at least tune in to watch someone run the bone again, just like I used to with GT and some of the service academies.
  21. Not thrilled about Cojoe, Red, Kirkland, & maybe Jordan leaving . There's definitely some upside (which really just means they havent done anything yet) on that list but I guess this is how CFB is now. If you've got chance to win something and those guys weren't gonna play much at least a year PLUS you had a chance to "trade" thejm for Tiaoalii Savea, Amari Niblack, Kendrick Blackshire, Silas Bolden, Isaiah Bond, Trey Moore, Andrew Mukuba, and Matthew Golden, I'll take that move every day of the week and twice on Sunday. It's REALLY easy dec/sion, actually. Those guyd have already mostlt fulfilled their potential. They're better players in every way than the few we]re losing (although I do thin Red wouod SHINE of given a chance. I jjust think Bolden is a better fit for that position). i guess I just have an irrational fear of losing any young player even if we have a replacement lined up that's better than the young guy will probably ever be. I guess you can call it Jean DeLance or Adrian Colbert PTSD... But we DEFINITELY didn't have the calibre of coaches we've got now during th 13 years that must not be discussede
  22. I have nothing against you. I just noticed your avatar and decided to be a dick: Anyway, what are your thoughts on Manny Ramirez , Pedro Martinez, Bronson Arroyo (best series he ever ptiched. Schilling was right about him having a brass pair. At least during those 7 games), Orlando Cabrera, and Pedro Astacio (and I KNOW I'm fogetting a shotloads of Latinos on that team)? More or less likable than Schilling, Wakefield, Youkilis, Trot Nixon, Kevin Millar, Varitek, Dae Roberts, and/or Damon (who's half-Thai so I don't know if he counts).
  23. I can't help but trust Sark's judgement on assistants. Too many homeruns and I'm HAPPILY pretending the Stoops thing never happened. I love the energy and teaching techniques (as opposed to just screaming in a kid's face, which passes for "coaching" at WAY too many places). But most of all, I liked seeing take a stab a developing Broughton's enomous latent potential. If he even partly succeeeds, I'll be a very gruntled guy and Broughton might be drawing an NFL paycheck nexy year as a UFA. Hopefully, he can get Collins to take the next step too. Because, if so, our DL could be almost as filthy as last year but better at pass rushing...
  24. I am cautiously optimistic. Obviously, Choice was a grand slam and Nansen might not be quite that good (who is, though?) but I think he was huge hire too. Jackson looks to be pretty damn solid too. In any case, I think Baker is going to be good. Probably (hopefully) very, very good. Brown still being committed and Lance Jackson jumping on board are definitely positive data points. I just wish D'antre Robinson would have been a little more patient because I think he's going to be a good one. That's on Robinson, not Baker, though. Plus, he has to play for Chip Kelly now. Hard to stay mad a guy who fucked up THAT badly, Bo Davis or not.
