    There goes the neighborhood..

    I thought at least when college football went completely off the rails I could fall back on Texas HS Football... this might put a big "ding" in that.

    They had to make that change as other states are doing the same. Not doing it allows for the Hs kids to get poached from the state.

    That looks like a bit more than a router/switch.  There might be a modem in there, and maybe some wireless stuff.  Are there any other "pieces" distributed around the house?

    Before buying anything, I'd have a pro come out, probably the installer and explain.  Or get the seller to.

    Yeah the only reason I think it may be a simple setup is because it appears to have a router there once you zoom in:

    June is a key month on the recruiting calendar as it informs the staff where it sits with priority targets taking official visits and likely on a summer decision timeline. In the lead up to that important month, the recruiting staff has been discussing targets through the binary choice of true or false. Of course in recruiting, until a prospect makes his decision there’s a lot of play in the joints. And even then, things can change.

    First installment
    Second installment

    True or false: these players will end up in the Texas class.

    Zalance Heard

    GH: False. Texas recruiting as a left tackle and LSU recruiting as a right tackle is Texas’ best chance. The Longhorns do have a really good coach relationships with Heard and at Neville High.

    JW: False. It’ll be hard to pry this rising prospect out of Louisiana from the Tigers’ claws.

    EN: False. But this one isn’t as cut and dried to me. Given lack of true tackle options in the class, expect Texas to remain all in and hope to create momentum within that state.

    Jaquaize Pettaway

    GH: True. Pettaway and Brennan Marion have a close bond. They share a lot of similarities growing up. That relationship, and the Texas scheme are positives for the Longhorns.

    JW: True. Texas wants speed and have prioritized Pettaway.

    EN: True. Texas has increased its efforts and started to push different buttons, plus I like Marion’s ability to relate. I think we can take away some lessons from Ryan Niblett’s recruitment.

    Jordan Matthews

    GH: True. The Pelican State will be in play for the Longhorns, and Matthews is very much in play here. Texas has more than a puncher’s chance.

    JW: True. Arch Manning and Will Randle aren’t the only ones in Louisiana the Texas staff have built strong relationships with. Matthews is wanted in Austin and he knows it.

    EN: True. Texas has been in consistently good shape since early spring and should reap the rewards of prioritizing him throughout. I think it gets across the line this summer.

    Javien Toviano

    GH: False. Tough to see Texas winning here, but let’s see where the June/July momentum sits.

    JW: False. Georgia might be the spot, or Texas A&M, but either way, Toviano isn’t trending UT.

    EN: False. For now. We’ve seen this recruitment swing wildly a couple of times. UT will always profile well to the family.

    Makari Vickers

    GH: True. As long as Alabama doesn’t push. There is a strong connection with Steve Sarkisian. And FSU is a mess.

    JW: True. The Horns might be a long shot, but there’s something brewing here with the Florida native and UT staff.

    EN: True. Once we had an idea the staff was prioritizing Vickers over Tyler Turner, I started to like UT’s chances.

    Colton Vasek

    GH: True. It looks like out of state now, but this is a recruitment that Texas can win if it plays out long enough.

    JW: False. Despite being a Longhorn legacy, it appears Vasek is headed out-of-state.

    EN: True. The fact he’s taking an official visit at the end of June has me intrigued. That could be prime opportunity for the staff to make a vigorous push.

    Braylan Shelby

    GH: True. Shelby may be leaning to USC headed into June, but sources close to the Friendswood program believe close to home is his parents’ preference.

    JW: True. The more he grows, the more Texas is learning this guy is a take in the 2023 cycle. Too much upside to pass on.

    EN: True. Though I’m leery of USC I believe proximity wins out. His physical development coupled with movement skills will force the staff to push extra hard.

    Gotcha, so if left as is, I'll just need modem from ISP and provide my own router that plugs into one of the switches pictured? The wifi password and new network will be configured in the router setup?

    That's how mine worked. I literally plugged in my modem and it was live. My network password is all setup through my Google WiFi router and carried over with everything I had at my previous house.

    Hell yeah that would be nice, fingers crossed. Any recommendations on a router to pair? Figure I'll just get one of these if that is the case:

     

    Eero Pro 6 or Pro 6e just because of how easy it is with the app to setup.

    Previous owner left something similar in my house. Every room is hardwired with at least two ethernet connections all running back to a central set of switches. I have no need for all of them, but I did hardwire in my Google WiFi hubs and all of my TV's. Everything works great.

    My cables were all numbered at the switch and in each room on the wall plates so I just plugged my router into the switch and connected whichever cables I needed.

  6. We just closed on a house and the house has the following:

    Im not sure if the current home owner is leaving the hardware or not but the wiring is already done. Any recommendations? Or explanations of how this setup works? On the off chance they do leave as is, how do I set it up?

    White, the DE from PA that they signed this round, was flown down on a private jet for his unofficial. He's lived in abject poverty for most of his life. They offered him and his handler more money than he'd ever heard of somebody having. I am fairly certain that Jimbo and company know how to handle black recruits from crumbling neighborhoods in northern US cities. 

    One thing that has bothered me over the last couple of years is recruits not being able to make it to UOV to us due to transportation or whatever. Yeah it only happens a few times a cycle but it should never happen IMO.

    Jimbo is an absolute idiot that is now leaving his boosters high and dry. "THESES ARE NOT NIL DEALS" thanks bruh, so what the fuck are they? Why is a kid from miami going to fucking college station to play football? after an 8-4 season which showed little promise outside of a fluke bama win. The dude is an absolute idiot and we may be watching career suicide in real time

    Don't forget when said kid committed they had no DC if we're talking about same kid.

    Arch Manning locks in three official visits
    STEVE WILTFONG

     


    Now that his spring football camp is over, the Top247’s No. 1 prospect in New Orleans (La.) Isidore Newman five-star quarterback Arch Manning can turn his attention back to recruiting. The blue-chipper now looks ahead to three official visits. 

    Manning's family tells 247Sports they’ll be at Georgia the first weekend in June and then Alabama and Texas the weekends to follow. He has already visited each of those programs several times including returns this past spring and for a game last fall.

    A three-year starter to date, the 6-foot-4, 220-pound Manning has thrown for 6,307 yards and 81 touchdowns in his prep career with another 742 yards rushing and 19 more scores.

    "He's worked really hard and had a great spring," Isidore Newman head coach Nelson Stewart said. "I'm so happy where the quarterback is and we have a great team. He's throwing it as well as he ever has."

    Manning talked last week about each of these programs with Horns247 insider Mike Roach.


    Regarding Georgia: "They have a really good staff," he said. "They just have athletes all over the place. Whether it's o-line or their entire defense. They had 15 guys drafted. I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with the quarterbacks this year and just asking some questions on my official visit."

    Regarding Alabama: "Their quarterback play has been insane the past couple of years," he said. "With Bryce, Mac, Tua, and all those guys. There's really nothing bad about Alabama. It's a machine and really good guys over there. I just want to build the relationship a little bit more and see Tuscaloosa I guess one more time."

    Regarding Texas: "Coach Sark's first year with a whole new roster was with a whole new roster and no one he recruited," he said. "It's definitely hard to go in and be successful. I'm looking forward to seeing what they do this year. That's kind of my deciding factor there and building a relationship with them. With a year under his belt, let's see what he can do now. "Coach Milwee is a great guy. I think it's really important to be close to your position coach."

    247Sports National Analyst Cooper Petagna attended Manning's spring game on Friday.

    "All in all, Manning’s performance was about as crisp as they come as the nation’s top passer performed the way we’ve come to expect when the bright lights are on," Petagna wrote. You can read the rest of his article here.

    "Although it's important to take controlled practice settings with a grain of salt, Manning appeared to be in full control at every level as a passer on Friday."

    Manning and Isidore Newman have reach the semifinals round of the state playoffs the last two seasons.
