Y’all are correct.
So what you’re wanting is for boosters with no background or appetite historically for buying recruits to start buying recruits because the dinosaur down the road still has a few targets of opportunity? That’s a panicked fantasy. And also, throwing out something that is working because of one absurd scenario seems pretty smart.
They’ll learn one way or another.

This is just stupid. Everyone calm the fuck down.
It’s not. Shut the fuck up. You need elite talent to win championships. It’s proven. Settling for guys under that tier gets you to the ND’s of the world and Oklahoma’s. Making the playoffs but getting ass fucked by the teams who are landing the elite talent.

I think his comparison between Omeire and Shipley is more about returning from two seasons lost to injury than about about potential quality of play.
Except Shipley was exceptionally faster than Omeire ever was and Shipley is probably one of the best route runners we have ever had.

Humidor:
RECRUITING
*Arch Manning played golf with Charles Wright on Thursday. No word on if it got out of hand like @UTortho’s 40th.
*It’s possible 2023 linebacker Derion Gullette will be in College Station late Saturday evening. Texas A&M is clearly UT's main competitor for the four-star edge-backer. Inside Texas continues to hear that Texas is Gullette’s personal favorite. Where does the recruitment stand within Gullette’s circle is the question? We will likely learn more on that after the weekend if they show up in College Station.
*2023 Baton Rouge (La. ) Woodlawn cornerback Jordan Matthews pulled into his home at 1:30am late, last night after spending time in Austin. He tells Inside Texas he had a great time as usual, and reiterated to @JoeCook he's looking at a decision before his senior season begins. A decision is possible in the next 7-10 days but nothing is locked in.
*2023 Longview (Texas) WR Jalen Hale popped into College Station on Thursday. The Aggies staff has been pushing Hale to return but it was a short visit. He's headed to Alabama on Friday morning after staying overnight in DFW. Hale has three remaining official visits, but is only scheduled for two; Alabama (9/3) and Texas (9/10). A&M will push for that third visit before his scheduled September 22nd announcement.
*2023 Garland (Texas) Naaman Forest OL/DL Markis Deal and his father made the one-day trip to Austin Thursday. There is a feeling that TCU and Texas are the likely top two in the prospects’ mind. Barring a change, it doesn't seem like there will be a commitment until after two fall official visits. Texas and Georgia are still expected to receive those. USC is the sleeper, if the On3 Consensus four-star ventures far from home.
*2023 Moss Point (Miss.) DL Jamarious Brown and family remain on campus in Austin today. The No. 102 ranked prospect in the On300 is not a player that has been to camps to receive official measurements. A key takeaway after seeing Brown in person is that he is likely closer to 6-1.5 without shoes than his listed height of 6-3. That doesn't change the level of prospect Brown is as an interior DL. Texas is in the mix with Ole Miss, and possibly Alabama or Tennessee. The Rebels are fighting hard to keep Brown in state.
*2023 Shreveport (La.) Woodlawn DL TaDerius Collins wasn't as big as the listed 6-foot-5 and 250 pounds in person. Inside Texas has him at 6-foot-4 and closer to 230 pounds. He has the frame of an EDGE prospect, but would only be recruited as a DL by the Texas staff. The Longhorns are expected to take another look on senior video. Baylor, and possibly TCU are more likely destinations should Collins decide prior to senior season. Collins did have a good visit. -

Inside Texas dives into team news days away from the start of fall camp, profile the latest on UT targets and more, Inside the Humidor.
TEAM
*Summer school ends: Texas wrapped up summer workouts on Thursday. The team will return next Tuesday and begin practice the following day.
*The 110 rule will be enforced in 2022 - you can only take 110 players to fall camp. Players who don’t make that cut can't practice or attend meetings until the first week of the season.
*Hudson Card and Quinn Ewers have a healthy relationship that benefits both on the field. Each has a team-first mentality. Each is widely liked. The team will rally around the winner of the competition and support the backup.
*The biggest difference in pre-camp last year and pre-camp this year? "It’s player-led. The players are way more bought in. The players are upholding a standard. New faces, new talent. That’s a big difference, too.”
*Biggest surprise from spring ball to the end of summer workouts? "The receiver room, including tight end. Absolutely stacked. (Isaiah) Neyor is a freak, (Ja’Tavion) Sanders is a stud, but the sleeper is Tarique Milton. He can go. Really go." You would think with Milton’s size he’d be a pure slot, but they’re moving him around.
On defense, Jaylon Guilbeau is another one under the radar. He's instinctive. Two more surprises mentioned were Diamonte Tucker-Dorsey and Michael Taaffe. “Tuck” is setting a good example for the linebackers. He’s adding leadership. Taaffe will likely see the field this year at Star behind Jahdae Barron and Guilbeau.
*He’s not often mentioned (or at least not enough) as a leader, but Jordan Whittington is a calming influence on the wide receiver room. If you have a question about anything he has an answer. The players are rallied around him and view him as being in a big contract year.
*The players are on a break until Tuesday. The coaches are off until Monday.
*It’s almost go time. -
