I'm not comfortable yet putting my crystal ball in for Colt McCoy but I do like where Texas is in his recruitment. Right now. With my ear to the streets.

I'm not going to say that Camar Wheaton flipping from OU to Bama to join Jase McClellan 1 year later would make me absolutely die from laughter but I'm not going to say it wouldn't either.

I know I have.

so someone Blake has never met before even in a cursory instance. Who could've guessed that the same Brockermeyer's who were shocked to find out that Longhorn alumni knew that Blake was the bag of dicks in this recruitment -- those same Brocks were stunned after being summarily removed from group texts and treated like the fucking lepers that they are? Shocking. You were more than warned you stupid ass luddite fuckface.

Tyree Wilson from aggy to Tech ::

Cam Buckley (WR) out for the year - sounds like an injury but aggy is being cryptic about it We've confirmed that senior wideout Camron Buckley won't be back this season. That's no surprise based on what you've seen on his twitter feed.

So relentless that Herman hired a whole ass person to actually do the recruiting for him.

The Texas 2022 QB texted a couple of guys and the national #1, 47, 73, 208 all got together and played football. That’s a good group to drive an hour to play catch 15 months before signing day. Getting 3 Oklahoma high school kids to come out to an event for OU recruits, regardless of their rank, isn’t a paradigm shift. These kids have more guys in attendance and better camaraderie building at agility and speed training sessions, 7on7 practices, etc... This just happens to have press coverage, and that press coverage is wearing fanboi-tinted glasses.

Gilliam goes from silent to public - official to OU

No idea if there’s a Sooner 2023 thread but Tristan Leigh Bro offered...

Agreed all around. It sounds like their stadium is open often but the field is not as often but neither of these things means fuckall to me. Doesn’t seem like a big deal at all, but funny ...

It appears the Texas video (they were not supposed to have any official interaction/special treatment while on campus) and being on the grass are both no-no’s. the stadium is often open but the surface is not, because it’s natural grass — and its supposed to be further locked down due to their Covid restrictions. Leigh’s mom deleted this tweet and Drumm deleted that specific update and the comments from his Saturday thread, but not before the internets spread the image around. so... kinda.

Fantastic. its Cullen Montgomery — https://247sports.com/player/cullen-montgomery-46040556/

Oh fuck all of this. so much helicopter. Enjoy this kid and his dad Sooner fans... holy fuck..

Kenyon Green was promised a starting job and taunted Javonne Shepherd about it. Guys like Leal have to start immediately for them while guys like Coburn and Ossai RS here. Fucking aggy.

Hahaha - never change aggy

Well, Gilbert would be a huge addition. I really like him a lot. Do you know anything about Hattley? Perhaps he fits the mold of an under-the-radar type of find. I don't know anything about him other than the listed size. It feels like OU backing away David must mean that they feel really good about Gilbert or perhaps feel like if they don't get Gilbert Hattley is a better option. I agree 100% with the idea that if Daniels was unwilling to even entertain a move that OU had to stop recruiting him. No doubt about it.

I was simply guessing as well. Based on previous video footage but I can't be certain.

holy. fuck. LET'S GOOOOOOO. Fuck a Redshirt. Shipley eligibility for EVERYONE!!!! Also, how in the world are they going to handle the 25/85 in 2021 with 2022 kids, etc?

I think that's McKinnley Jackson behind Raikes (34).

Jordan Jefferson has been removed from the 12th man roster - he's now a 404 https://12thman.com/404-1.aspx?url=/roster.aspx?rp_id=8074&

Here's the weirdest part of the sooner summit - it's that Drumm has basically said that this kind of thing has never been done before. which is insane. The player led meetups have been going on for decades at schools that do a lot of regional recruiting. Miami and FSU were doing this in the fucking 90s. I can remember when party buses would take kids from south Dallas directly to the infamous FSU/PVAM parties. @TBGFL probably remembers this stuff as well. The Miami guys and the FSU guys then started to feign interest and then recruit for their own schools, etc ... Texas has done these. LSU has done these. Aggy has done these - even fairly recently (that pool party disaster comes to mind). The thing is - most coaching staffs will try to quash these before they happen because for all the good they can do they can do far more damage. If you don't have coaches and player personnel people there to change the ebb and flow of the dialogue you can have some real issues. If you don't have them there to deflect from -- let's say LARGE personalities (parents or kids) you can actually alienate recruits (or parents). If you don't have them there and the players begin discussing other teams/fanbases/parents/recruits/players -- you can't avoid the landmines that these convos can produce. Now most of the sooner summit guys already know each other and have known each other for years so that seems like a non-issue here, though I'd have been worried if more Texas kids were going to be a part of it, if I was RIley. For sure. I don't think Drumm is overly involved as in planning (he may have nudged or helped with communications, who knows) but honestly I think he's overly invested because he's a fanboi. He's a CW and family fanboi, he's an OU fanboi, and for whatever reason he sees this as a revolutionary event. It's just like when Kyler was coming to aggy and every word he said was gospel to Hamm. They were going to get everybody ... then the class fell almost exactly like you'd expect. I do think Drumm should be careful about things like meeting recruits at the airport at the request of another recruit and his family. That is getting into some ground that much like Hamm, can lead to OU having to distance themselves from him and the loss of credentials, etc ... you can't be going on water slides with teen recruits. I think the whole thing is overblown because Drumm is simply a lot like Hamm. He believed every kid who said "oh yeah, I'll be there" or "I'm gonna do my best to make it out" or whatever. Once he oversold the event to his readers he felt personally attacked when kids predictably backed out and the fans weren't still all-in for the event the way he was. His quote about "you just don't see this even in a regular year", etc ... When Farooq and Gilliam announce he's going to be bananas.
