  1. 1) Looks like Charlie Williams (On3) put in a CB pick for Mark Bowman, to Texas. 2) Also looks like Justin Wells put in a CB pick for Felix Ojo, to Texas. 3) WR Mike Brown committed to the Aggies. Didn't seem like he was high on our board ...
  2. A Shakespearean tragedy, in 5 acts. ACT 1: THE KINGS OF PRESEASON ACT 2: THE GOING GETS TOUGH ACT 3: RECENT SURGE, RENEWED HOPE ACT 4: BAMA'S BITCHES, NOW AND FOREVER ACT 5: BUT AT LEAST WE MADE HISTORY, AMIRITE??
  3. Re: the Trashawn Ruffin decommitment - "major programs" ... welcome to the big time, UNC ... Good thing they don't have too many other out of state commits in their current class. Here is their entire current commitment list, with the out of state commits marked with an X.
  4. I'm assuming Hank South (Horns 247) mean "big" in the metaphorical sense, but JaReylan McCoy is also literally huge. ESPN lists him as 6-7/260, and a 5* (11th overall, 2nd at his position). If he shivvies the Ags in the process, all the better. Could be a tough pull from Miss, but an OV is a good start.
  5. According to this guy on Aggie 247, the answer is ... yes.
  6. So, who is the team to beat right now? Who is setting the bar heading into a busy offseason full of visits? Chase Calicut: "It's UT, for sure." Calicut is 6-3, 190 ... Texas Official Visit June 13th. Top suitors starting to emerge for Top247 defensive back Chace Calicut Tom Loy (247 Sports)
  7. (Fuck, fuckity fuck - was almost done, when the editor crashed. Had to redo the whole thing ... so be sure to read the damn thing twice!) All, 247/Tom Loy published an update on the recruitment of every prospect in the new Top 247. (Yep, all 247 of them ... ) This list may be an interesting reference for a point in time, to revisit. I've divvied the list up into the following sections: - Texas is the favorite - Texas specifically called out - Texas is a contender - The full list (spoilered, at the end) Have fun. (Also - this comment cracked me up - "#8. LB Xavier Griffin (USC commit): Everyone, myself included, felt as though this would be the typical early USC commit from Georgia who ends up elsewhere. " Lulz.) Texas is the favorite Texas specifically called out ("Don't sleep on ... ") Texas is a contender The full list Football recruiting intel on each 2026 Top247 prospect: What we're hearing on every player in updated rankings Here's the latest college football recruiting intel on every player ranked in Wednesday's 2026 Top247 update.

  8. Thanks. Yep, even for those guys, this seemed pretty dopey.
  9. - First, some comments from Dia Bell, at the UA event in Miami (from a Brian Dohn article. In this color/font.) I think they're as candid, clear, and reasonable as one can expect. As mentioned, Bell — of Plantation (Fla.) American Heritage — committed to Texas last June, but programs continued to make runs at him. Lately, Bell said, Ohio State, Georgia and LSU have been in contact, and he is speaking with them. "I still take their calls," he said. "I like to hear what they have to say because, in the world we live in, college football coaches can end up anywhere the next day. "So I have to make sure I keep in contact with those coaches in case anything goes sideways, but my heart is in Texas and it will be as long as coach (Steve) Sark(isian) and (quarterbacks coach AJ) Milwee are there." Bell made it clear that he is committed to Texas and only speaking to those schools because, with all the movement in college athletics, one of them could be coaching him in the future. He has no plans to make other visits. Bell is working on a spring visit date, but he will officially visit Texas June 20-22. - I think most reasonable people (and if there is one trait that applies to EVERYONE on Surly, it's reasonableness ... lulz) understand that there's some chance of a loyal recruit decommitting, esp. if key coaches leave. (Would rather not have seen Milwee's name included there as a requirement, but its also a compliment to him.) But then, saw these comments from a couple of staff members on the LSU board, after the Dohn article. Without even getting into other issues (the disparity in depth charts, for instance, when comparing Ohio State and Texas), no idea whether any of this has an ounce of credence, or basis in specific information. @closetojumping - other than the scenario where Sark/Milwee leave - anything else to be concerned about? Bell and family have seemed as solidly and visibly pro-Texas as possible.
  10. Cross-posting as an FYI, for those who may not look at the 2025 NFL Draft thread on the Football Board.
  11. First post was after their baseball loss yesterday. Highlight in burnt orange ... for no reason at all. 🤣 🤣 🤣 Tarp comes up with the solution. (Love the highlighted portion, in particular ... yeah, Aggies, you should do that. In the middle of an arms race, do more with less. Think out of the box. And lower expectations ... lulz.) And what better way to end, than a thoughtful, cogent response to Tarp's article, from CWilly1310? (See highlight ... )
  12. Typos, BAS, Daddy outs himself, potshot at Texas, despair, gallows humor ... it's all here, folks.
  13. @Elmer_Fudd - Hank's note on the Berymon CB.
