I cannot believe they’re blithely ignoring the reality of the Josh Eaton situation. It wasn’t until he threw Jimbo, who had the ball, at the water polo net for the winning goal that that recruitment went sideways on them. They’d yanked Eaton’s ass out of the pool and asked him to leave before Linguist and Henson could even finish getting Jimbo untangled from the goal netting.

Well that tweet will surely cement the job for him. I’m sure AY is extremely appreciative for how he has characterized his future employer. What a moron.I think he left the word “not” out of his tweet on accident.

Since the dawn of the Mack Brown era, Texas is 22-10 against the current SEC and 1-0 versus LSU. I hope they’re fucking ready, because the last 20 years, they’ve basically shown up about 31% of the time.

AllTime Texas Record Against:
Current SEC Teams - 191-91-9 (.672 WPCT)
Except TAMU and MU - 97-48-4 (.664 WPCT)
Old 10 (remove South Carolina and Arkansas, too) - 41-25-4 (.614 WPCT)Just surfacing some Texas vs SEC math for the dipshit(s) showing up to tell us how scared we're supposed to be.

Is this English? I'm guessing you aren't a college grad. Maybe not even a high school grad. SEC!SEC!SEC!
You may have missed that we weren't trying to score most of the second half. We knew we had more points than Georgia was capable of scoring and coasted throughout the 4th Q. If you didn't notice that, you're a retard.
With any hiring practices I've been involved over the past decade, I require the team/company to exclude from the process any resumes from LSU. I've never encountered a competent employee with an LSU degree in their background. It has to be something below a Texas HS education. It wouldn't shock me if this dumb motherfucker was a doctoral candidate at that 3rd world shithole of a school and state.

Looks like the first digit is a “3,” so I’m guessing Gbenda.
Crap, the Whittington video was at the base of the prior page and I thought it was the last post, so I’m agreeing with TommyGufano, who beat me to the punch an hour ago.
This concludes the guinea competition on this board, then. We now know who the real stinking WOP genius really is.

That lb rundown didn’t mention josh white, at least by name. On purpose?
I have no idea who the player is. Sorry if that wasn't clear. I view Josh White as a missed opportunity that they will not be able to fix, but sure, maybe that's the guy.

O’neal seems like the type that if things don’t go his way, he will probably implode and do so publicly on social media.
I cannot wait for O’Neal’s meltdown. I expect it to be public and outstanding.

The plan at LB is:
-Tillman looks great and might end up starting this year (is he the most unheralded signee? at least the most unheralded early enrollee, but critical if he really is developing in such a manner this early)
-Gbenda takes a similar jump on the learning curve as he settles in (he was expected to be the early contributor but wasn’t an EE)
-Floyd gets medically cleared (I don’t see it)
-One of the JUCO signees makes an appearance as a player
-stay on Chris Thompson and see what happens if Auburn falls apart (does the payment to the parents keep him locked in with a new regime? is this guy an EE?)
-one of Hullaby and JQJ becomes an LB
-if Overshown isn’t made of glass, does he eventually see LB-esque action with a DB label this season and does that work for him and the defense?
-Owens might fit that bill eventually if Overshown doesn’t
-they have a target that they do not want to be public right now (they’re hoping he stays hidden, a la Gary Johnson in 2017, or he’s committed elsewhere and they feel really good about a flip)
-they will scour the transfer/GT landscape all the way up to next summer
So yeah, none of us feel like LB is sorted, but Orlando has a lot of optionality, which he craves.

Depends on the job and location. UM is a pretty good path to the banking/consulting world, while UF is definitely better for engineering/science/accounting. Pretty standard state vs. private split.
You write like a patrician ivy league douche without a clue beyond the classroom in this discussion.

Two questions that may annoy. I can't keep up with all the recruits and all the opinions.
1. Ty Jordan is small. I assume he is a waterbug with great quickness and shake. Am I right about that and how do we use him?
2. Alford. What is our disposition towards him? I gather that Eaton would be the first choice in lieu of Ringo and Rogers.
Maybe others would like these pedestrian questions answered as well. Thanks!
1) You’ll get an avalanche of opinions on Jordan. I’ll just say what I’ve whined about all along - they shouldn’t have been slowplaying him in the first place. It’s looking like they’re over the hump with him now and that could drop soon.
2) Folks really like Alford. I’ve been interested in seeing him go elsewhere the whole time. Good ball skills, not the most athletic or best in coverage. Nothing elite. I’d like to see them land J Thompson this weekend and find a senior phenom or cross their fingers on safety flips with Washington or Chris Thompson.

These last two pages. Fucking awesome. One guy remembering the Eaton addition as the actual thing; the Carrington pool volleyball tweet fantasy - please God make that happen; “it would be a live document”. Oh man.
I need to hear a Liucci denial.

FYI on Pouncey:
-Amazing ball skills. Elite in this regard.
-Underdeveloped and probably weighs 165lbs soaking wet. Will blossom physically in college.
-78 inch wing span
-I would expect Jordan Pouncey to be plenty involved in the WR rotation.
-He’d be the best CB signed in Bilbo Fisher’s 3 classes at ATM. Liucci is a fucking clown to attempt to talk shit about him and his ranking. We should save his bullshit and tweet bomb his clown ass in 3 years.

Whose analysis do you trust, sir? On the one hand, you have a guy that puts together 30 camps a year, watches practices at 50 P5 schools and visits probably another 150 high school practices a year. Basically lives, eats and breathes recruiting and lives in Florida and watches these guys. On the other hand, you have a complete fucking dipshit who rarely sees anything outside of a 25 mile radius of College Station and has no capacity for objective thought.
You may choose to worship Gerry Hamilton. As for me and my house, I choose to serve The Looch.

Apparently:
-Tillman is showing up at LB and will be a factor. Being in for the spring was big. He gets forgotten a lot because he wasn’t highly rated, but that’s what you get with underdeveloped Florida players. He has a huge wingspan, he’s fast and fast twitch, and he’s mean.
-What kind of pussy is the Tre Norwood kid to get hurt in fall practice ahead of Kirk Johnson going down?
-They think Sweat is a fucking beast. They like the DL, but that guy has them excited. They’re putting real depth together where it matters.
-They love Smith and Whittington as impact players. The hype is merited.
-Green is the best CB going away and they love what they have overall there.
-Chris Brown is getting raves and he’s not even going to start.
-From someone who has been around the program at practices for more than two decades, “this is the most athleticism on defense since the prime of the Mack Brown era”

This seems like a bit much. I know we get them at home early in the season with a new quarterback, but hard to see Texas favored by that much given OSU's success against Texas over the past several years.
Just so we’re clear, Oklahoma State has the longest active winning streak of any team at DKR. Texas hasn’t put one together of the same size since 2009. OSU getting a bunch of points against Texas at home doesn’t get me pumped.

While the BOMC is well documented and an undeniable fact of recruiting rankings, some guys will slip a bit as well. Seems the interior OL haven't put their best foot forward at camps, so I suspect they'll drop. That said, in my mind, Bijan is the only guy on that list who Alfred Collins should be looking up at. I'll strenuously object if he isn't a top-50 guy in this class whether he ends up in burnt orange or not. Basically I'm saying the likeliest outcome is the ranking movements netting out at approx zero.
Oh! You strenuously object. Then I’ll take some time and reconsider.

This, plus it looks like they're going to take Hester and they will probably hold spots for Ringo (not likely) and LVBS (trending well) if they decide they want in. I'm still skeptical Princely ends up here.
I don’t have anything to pass on regarding Umanlymannishman right now, but personally, I have a hard time seeing Texas pass on taking him. Maybe they do. Seems crazy if he wants to come.

why does aggy do a drill where the DTs are late and arrive behind/after the ballcarrier? I mean, I know it looks just like their regular season but - wtf is the point of that shit? also of note, I had to watch the video because aggy247 is gonzo over how fast and smooth Chase Lane and Spiller are in this vid. (we also get a chorus of CALEB CHAPMAN TOO, he's just tall).
well, shit I tested it and the CBS link is fuckery ::
