    It is a little shocking, but in all honesty, Texas doesn't produce that many great LBs relative to the skill positions. 7 on 7 has kind of crapped on LB development, IMO.
  2. jordanaggie
    Not sure on Hansford. The bench is pretty deep at LB. I liked Hines and would have expected him to break through a little more this year. It is strange the kid can't put on any weight, though.
  3. jordanaggie
    I think we liked him at safety and he wanted to play corner. Way too slow for either, probably.

    What recruiting sites do you think I'm on? 247 and assuming it counts, here, is it. And sure, I cheer for my team, but I'm not blindly following Luicci or other Kool-Aid drinkers (although in my early days, I was probably more inclined to, until they proved how little they knew).
  5. jordanaggie
    I said your guys get bumps and drops, and so do ours. Yes, I think that. Others seem to, too, which is why I intentionally used the word "We". You can keep trying to box me into a corner, but I'm not much of a homer, especially when I stop over here.
  6. jordanaggie
    He's looking a little like John Chavis at the moment.
  7. jordanaggie
    Certainly fair.
  8. jordanaggie
    What have I couched and what propaganda? Your guys get bumped and dropped, and it may or may not be justified. Our guys get bumped or dropped, and it may or may not be justified. You may have missed the sentence about rankings being nonsense.
  9. jordanaggie
    Really good take, here. 20% of our guys are doing 80% of the work. I have no idea what Coley, Dickey, and T. Robinson are doing. I'm not sure on Santucci, but I'm hoping his coaching chops are better than his recruiting, because a 1-LB class of Seegars is extremely concerning. Price is largely asleep behind the wheel, too.
  10. jordanaggie
    Ha, rankings bumps and drops are all nonsense. Kids go up and down all the time, and of course we won't complain about our guys going up. There were certainly a few of yours that appeared out of nowhere (Hookfin) and others that seem a little questionable in hindsight (Owens), but we'll have the same thing. Leon O'Neal was a .96xx something on 247-- that doesn't look right. Mond and Ausbon were a .95xx something, and neither of those look right, either. There are undoubtedly more on both sides. Rankings are pretty speculative. We'll see on the OT for us both. I think Sam will do a better job of making yours look better than Mond will with ours.

    I think I may have already discussed it 50 pages ago on this thread, but IMO, neither of our OLs are worth much. Yes, you have Cosmi. Yes, we're hopeful K. Green plays like a 5 star. But at the present, I haven't seen anything from either team that screams dominant OL. We do think your commits get late bumps in the rankings, which may or may not be justified. But I don't really care about rankings as long as the guy can play. Correct on OT and CB depth being light. Not sure how Jimbo allowed that to happen. I'd have been looking around at JUCOs for both spots.
  12. jordanaggie
    Our record hasn't improved in years. If that's the pitch, it worked the last two classes.
  13. jordanaggie
    IMO, Jimbo's recruiting game was great until this year (I can't speak to how he did at Florida State after his natty, but I doubt it was ever lower than top 10). Yes, there were some questionable takes and the 2018 class is essentially a non-factor. But this year, something is weird-- not sure if it's the recruiting violations, getting complacent or something else, but I'm just not seeing this class stack up like the last ones.
  14. jordanaggie
    Lol, lots of weakness on the roster. No returning WR to speak of, no TE depth, OL was crap last year and it's hard to see much improvement, a largely unknown CB group, and mostly just Mond. I'm not on TA, but as far as I can tell, Luicci has been way over the top. Tarp is even really optimistic, which is strange. You guys love to rag on the coaching, which is fine. I think my only real concerns/complaints are that (1) due to Jimbo's stubbornness, we're running an archaic offense and (2) the OL can't get the job done, and with the scheme, they may never be able to.
  15. jordanaggie
    You're right, we aren't recruiting at Georgia's level. I'd like to think a good season or two, if we could string something together, would help that. I'm not sure how our archaic offense has much to do with the defense, but I'm less concerned about the defensive side of the ball than I've been in years.
  16. jordanaggie
    As far as the road games, I meant that in the context of Mond's abilities. He's been awful on the road, and maybe no people will help. He's been mildly better at home. Of course, other teams will likely play better at Kyle.
  17. jordanaggie
    I may need to-- many people are saying 7-3.
  18. jordanaggie
    Hard to say on this year's W/L. Mond sucks on the road-- even more than at home--but this year's road games shouldn't be like normal road games. I am not so sure on the offense, in light of that and the the OL (although being able to field a more respectable TE group may help to some degree). I'm pretty optimistic about our defense, though. Should at least be able to keep us in these toss-up games until the end. I'll be disappointed with anything less than 8-2. We didn't really lose all that much from last year and most of our opponents did. Alabama, Auburn, LSU and Florida will be tough games, though. To me, it all hinges on Mond's play, which is a scary thought.
  19. jordanaggie
    I'm not ready to put Mond on Jimbo. Maybe that's the homer talking, but Mond's ceiling isn't far off of his floor. He is what he is. For perspective, Sumlin started Starkel over Mond. While that was a questionable call and Sumlin did nothing right, it kind of puts the talent level into perspective.
  20. jordanaggie
    Well, he's had 3 years to get better. I mean other areas of the team need work, but at this point the qb position should be above average and an advantage. I am not holding my breath.
  21. jordanaggie
    Lol you think ou is a good school? And they say our rivalry is dead... Achilles injuries definitely suck. Hope he recovers, but at this point, he'll be fortunate to see the field at any level.
  22. jordanaggie
    Yeah, I mean melting is a little strong, but it was a pretty stupid thing to say. He deleted it quickly, but the toothpaste is out of the tube.
  23. jordanaggie
    First of all, nice pickup on Ewers. Yes, we're jealous and pissed. He was never going to be in the cards for us, but that really doesn't ease the pain. As for Robbins, I suspect his spot will become tentative with the Burris commitment. It looks like we want Robbins, Malone, Tunmise, Turner and Goodwine on the DL (maybe also Landon Jackson, if we could flip him), but with Harris, Vaka and Burris on board, we probably only have 3 spots for 5 guys.
  24. jordanaggie
    I'm guessing Fuller and Anderson, but I could be wrong.
  25. jordanaggie
    I'm not sure what kind of response you wanted on this, but I think both are significantly underwhelming. Other than Green, our highest ranked guys (Blanton, Reed and Matthews) have been big letdowns, IMO. I don't think our change to zone blocking did the group of prior recruits any favors, but OL has not be a strong point, that's for damn sure.
