    Right. This is the recruiting board. Let's not debate the merits of whether the player or the coach are more in the wrong. Let's enjoy the resulting schadenfraude and negative recruit the shit out of TCU for once. 

    This i can agree with. Gary is the Grand Wizard tbh

    ....And then proceeded to use it again,but worse, as a defense. Allegedly. They're both dumb. 

    Eh, you know not to say the word, but when you're quoting that person to their face, their words, or maybe sing it in a song, it doesn't make you the Grand fuckin' Wizard who needs to be exposed to the nation. 

    like I said, he led with his real issue.

    Well, I think his larger complaint is his coach allegedly using both the soft and hard R N-words in front of him.

    I think not. If that was his larger complaint, he should have led and finished with it. He led with what his real problem is.

    Going through Myslinki's offers and their 247 sites, it seems like Iowa, FSU, Maryland, Michigan State, and Louisville all want him, which doesn't necessarily mean he's a good prospect in and of itself, but it also arguably means that Texas isn't completely going out on a limb in potentially taking him. Iowa in particular pushing for him is noteworthy, imo. 

    I watched this kid's stuff last Friday, and all of the pancaking and driving is a bit hard to gauge based on competition, but outside of that he's still interesting. A guy you don't want to "have" to take, sure, but the stuff I saw showed some good feet and movement, and some good athleticism displayed on defense as well. Sometimes those evals work, sometimes they don't. 

    Would hope that, in the event he does commit, that he fills out.

    Some of y’all are just looking for shit to be worried out.

    I'm looking for shit NOT to be worried about... but regardless of what any 995er or OU fanboy mod says, one element in all of this remains undefeated, and is a wildcard whether I like it or not.

    Pass. I have doubts about Troy Omeire's speed and separation at the next level. He's 6'3" 212 pounds. In Jackson's fastest ever 200 he finished 2 spots ahead of Omeire at 5'10" 158 pounds. Sorry but Caleb Johnson is the guy OU has that I'd be more excited about. FFS, Jackson runs the 2nd leg on his own teams 4x - again and well under 170 pounds. Not the anchor and not the lead. 

    Fucking hard pass. Texas saw him 5 weeks in a row,  certainly wants his teammate, and still wouldn't offer. He's a shithead that isn't well liked by his peers, has p.i.t.a. parents, and he probably goes 150 pounds right now coming off a knee injury. Yeah, he's the missing piece of the puzzle to get over the hump. 

     

    Sublime.

    Yah, I'm not agreeing with every single bullet point, but the overall flavor of the write-up, I got it. Good class going, feel like we've lost a couple we should have gotten, though. I think a lot of us feel that way. Not depressed about it or anything.

    Texas blurb from the recruiting mailbag on the athletic 

      Hide contents

    How is Texas looking in the 2021 cycle? — Zachariah F.

    I have a really hard time figuring out Texas sometimes because on the surface it looks as though the Longhorns’ class is in good shape and headed for more success. But on the other hand, I feel like there are a lot of missed opportunities. For instance: The Brockermeyer brothers, who just committed to Alabama, are Texas legacy recruits who spurned the in-state school in favor of the out-of-state powerhouse. And as things stand right now, the top three players in the state of Texas are going elsewhere: Brockermeyer is going to Alabama, five-star running back Camar Wheaton of Garland Lakeview Centennial is a heavy lean to Oklahoma, and five-star offensive guard Donovan Jackson of Bellaire Episcopal in the Houston area is headed to Ohio State.

    Yes, Texas has commitments from five-star athlete Ja’Tavion Sanders and four-star athlete Billy Bowman — teammates at Denton Ryan High who are both top 35 players nationally. And yes, Texas is basically its own country in terms of size, and it’s harder to keep kids home from a geographical standpoint than it is in other, smaller states such as Ohio or Georgia. But for as good as Tom Herman has been at accumulating talent — and he has been, given the Longhorns were No. 4 in college football last year in the Blue-Chip Ratio — it just doesn’t seem like Texas has truly maximized its potential.

    Texas’ 2021 class right now ranks No. 11 nationally and No. 1 in the Big 12. Who is going to criticize that? Not me.

    However, sometimes I like to think about what could have been, and Texas, which I always think is on the verge of breaking out on the field, has the resources and the ability to be in the conversation with Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State and now LSU for best program in America.

    Instead, Oklahoma has won five straight Big 12 titles and is the king of that conference, doing so by taking elite-level talent like Wheaton (soon) and four-star wide receiver Cody Jackson of Richmond (Texas) Foster, four-star weakside defensive end Clayton Smith of Texarkana Texas High and four-star cornerback Latrell McCutchin of Austin (Texas) LBJ, whose high school is miles away from the Longhorns’ campus.

    Texas’ class is fine. It will likely finish in the top 10. But could it have finished in the top five with a little something extra? Yes.

     

    Kinda the way a lot of us feel.
