  1. Should probably see what happens with Brooks and Fasusi. Seems like that guy could be someone to circle around to during the season if needed.
  2. I somewhat get the point you are trying to make but you just listed 24 guys. At some point the number of guys brought in for OV's is going to far exceed the number of spots in the class. Several of those guys you mentioned Texas barely even seriously recruited the last 6 months. I had to look up who Jonte Newman was and Michael Turner didn't even have a Texas offer.
  3. Texas is involved with Fisher but like you said, he has a lengthy list is suitors. I don’t think he is one of the ones on campus. I think one of the guys on campus is this guy https://gamecocksonline.com/sports/baseball/roster/player/connor-mccreery/
  4. I think they can get Mendoza across the line. That recruitment profiles well for Texas.
  5. This was signee I mentioned the other day that was close to flipping from A&M. It’s done now. OB said he doesn’t want to publicly make a big deal about it due to the backlash from A&M fans.
  6. Pretty damn important that Alex January is a hit and flashes early. Would be cool if Bryant and/or Bledsoe decided to turn the corner too from the 2022 class. The 2022 DT haul was not seen as anywhere close to a failure at the time. Ross, Bryant, Bledsoe, Swanson. Swanson was probably the only one questioned at the time when we took his commitment. The decision to only take Sydir Mitchell in 2023 is where things started going sideways. They passed on multiple guys in that class or would have crawled over broken glass to commit to Texas.
  7. It's interesting the difference in On3, 247 and Rivals when calculating rankings. I personally like On3's system, which only factors your top 14-15 commits in their overall scoring, so it doesn't reward teams who oversign. Texas is currently 16th. 247 rewards teams who sign a lot of guys, which is how you get Rutgers with the 14th-ranked class with 29 commitments in early July. Texas is currently 23rd. Not even sure what Rivals does but I'm sure it's stupid and makes no sense. Texas is currently 37th.
  8. Pettijohn, Rogers and Phillips are tomorrow. Should go 1 for 3. Nick Townsend on Monday. Cunningham next Friday. Tilmon is supposed to be soon
  9. Kade Phillips 5:30 announcement tomorrow per Gerry. Texas or LSU https://www.on3.com/db/kade-phillips-177910/
  10. "Dekorien Moore's mom texted Gerry Hamilton this morning and said it was a not money decision, Dakorien felt like it was a better overall situation at Oregon"- Bobby on OTF Obviously, I wouldn't expect a mother to come out and say it was all about bags, but part of me wonders if the entire family hoping it would be Texas, actually pushed Moore away and made him want to get away from home.
  11. This isn’t 2012. These kids don’t give a shit what Texas is doing and had no problem leaving the state the last 10 years.
  12. He is on his 4th job in 4 years and got laughed out of the NFL. He is great at a place like Oregon where his biggest strength (recruiting) is maximized and pairs well with their $trategy.
  13. These coaches love jerking each other off. Jones was the head coach at South Oak Cliff 10 years ago and Samples is self explanatory. Always gotta look out for your own.
  14. Just looked and in 2024 it was 3 (Simmons, Black, Filsaime) and 2023 was also 3 (Cook, Hill, McDonald). 2022 was 2 (Campbell, Banks).
  15. Gerry said two days ago none of his current hi’s have come off the board yet. He said he won’t even do hi’s for defensive lineman because of how wild the swings can be in those recruitments. No idea how many are outstanding but I’m assuming guys like Townsend, Phillips, Tilmon, Brooks make up some of them.
  16. They aren’t firing people in July after a few decisions don’t go our way. Come on.
  17. Arkansas is involved heavily with Mendoza. It will be a battle.
  18. Don't think it works that way since athletic department money can't be used for NIL (yet), but yeah, last week got a lot of people angry and ready to donate.
  19. There is a current A&M signee thinking about flipping who would be an impact player for us next year. A slight draft risk but I think he's a guy who makes it to campus.
  20. It will be interesting to see it play out. Considering they are running it back largely with the same lineup the coaching job will be noticeable year over year. I heard today that the NIL pool for A&M baseball increased to over $2 million. That is in LSU territory. About half of that probably went to Laviolette, Grahovac and Sorrell, but still.
  21. The P4 is now the Big 12, Big Ten, ACC and SEC. As of two days ago Arizona State, Arizona, Utah and Colorado are now in the Big 12. Just saying.
  22. Either the Washington 2B or Ethan Mendoza from ASU.
