    In better news I think we can finally confirm that we dodged a character bullet: https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/4-star-florida-signee-arrested-trespassing-charges-171708605.html

    Nah, nah

    No doubt it won't be easy but finding out 7 months earlier is without question an advantage.

    DL recruiting is absolutely an issue. That said, the fact that we know this in May and not in November/December is a huge benefit. The staff can act accordingly.

    Kids gotta keep some suspense, manufactured or not. Time will tell.

    BOOOOOMM! We got him

    Honestly wonder if it is his mom's account to follow her son's recruitment.
  8. SamTex
    Might just be a separate account to be used purely for recruiting

    You're right about Meekins, my mistake. But for Beck why shouldn't we have higher expectations and standards? They guy can recruit but it wouldn't change the fact that we still wouldn't have a WR coach that recruits would want to play for. Another schools recruiting pitch from their WR coach: "Come play for me at ___. You've seen how I've coach up similar players and I think I can get you to the draft." Mehringer: "I know my WR choices were strange last year, that one of our best young players in the position transferred partially because he didn't like me, and that I lack experience but give us a chance, we're Texas!" Beck: "I know I was fired from OSU, ran a horrible offense two years in a row at 2 different schools, and now I've been moved to a coaching position that I have virtually no experience at but give me a chance!" Or, find someone else who can recruit and coach at the position.

    I think this would be a good fix but it is a little ridiculous that for a school like Texas, with all of its endless resources, that the best we can do is rearrange. Say what we want about Jimbo but he hired a true position coach that can recruit for each hire. We need and can afford a real WR coach who can both coach and recruit, ala Herb Hand replacing Warehime. Meekins to TE's is one thing but at a certain point Tom just needs to sack up and trim the fat even if he's friends with them.

    Mr. Bagman, buy me a dream... Make it the most unexpected recruitment that I've ever seen...

    "So, what do you think you'll be up to after next season?"

    There's a picture somewhere of Charlie Strong and Bob Stoops having run into each other outside of a recruit's home. I think it was Chris Daniels. Really feels like forever ago.

    I see him as a Kobe Boyce type. He isn't necessarily the top guy you're aiming for but he is a legitimate player that you'd be happy to get. And who could develop into a starter if developed right.

    @TrojanPrincess what say you?
  16. SamTex
    He has no stock in it either way without an offer from either school. No reason for him not to support his friend

    The whole Jimbo promising a starting spot thing is a bit much but the rest of his pitch and momentum isn't all that hard to understand. We were able to clear the fucking board and load up on recruits with Charlie who could not get a win to literally save his job. This year (like us last year) Jimbo is selling the dream and the future all while having a horrible depth chart. It's an easy pitch. I do believe there's at least a bit of su$pect play involved but probably no more than most schools. He also hired a staff that is made up of better recruiters than coaches. It is paying off for him in the short term.

    I'd say pretty well. Enough to hope for a repeat
  19. SamTex
    Very likely they don't know. Only a few years ago that Kyle Allen and Kyler Murray were both promised they'd start in the same year. Can't imagine either knew of the promise to the other or they wouldn't have reacted so strongly.

    Good morning, i'm here for the echo chamber

    This board would be a field day for a study on addictive personalities

    One can do this without getting emotionally invested?
  23. SamTex
    I wish I could actually know how much recruiting has aged me

    Cool your tits and let the handman work

    I'm almost more curious to see what Dameyune Craig's impact will be for them
