  1. Thanks for those facts. Wouldn’t bringing Gaston in first and offering and waiting for him to commit before you bring in Miller tell you who is higher on the board? and to be clear I don’t care one way or the other. Absolutely thrilled with the Miller commit. Just saying that the timeline supports the narrative that Texas /draytons first choice was Gatson.
  2. It’s a plausible narrative and from what I can tell mostly likely correct. Fat Ketch (also a shit stain) says the same. If you have other facts please share. Have heard Gatson was higher on draytons rb board as well What is clear from the outside is that after the Gatson visit to Austin many had him as a silent commit. Jones told we are full. TCU buddy transfers to USC and Gatson also visits out west. Carrington and USC are all very confident of a recruiting victory and a commitment date is set. Announcement does not go Texas’ way and we immediately bring in Miller for a visit and he commits right after.
  3. A decent OB poster /insider says 2 commits from this weekend possibly a 3rd. my pussyness has flared up regarding Anderson. Would not expect a coin flip based on the confidence being displayed over the last weeks/months etc.
  4. Honest question here. Mond seemed to improve. 3rd round pick, 66 overall for him surprised me, still. Any credit due to cuck face deserved for this?
  5. Curious what @Randolph Duke thinks about this take
  6. Looks like a coordinated effort/response to the Owens de commit.
  7. Any examples you would like to share? I imagine this goes beyond publishing info that should stay silent for the time being such as a commit or coaching hire.
  8. “Five Tool, one of the premier baseball outlets in the country and one of the biggest brands in amateur baseball” per his goodbye column.
  9. With no insight, it makes you wonder if he has a problem with Sark - or Sark/athletic dept with him and this is his passive aggressive response. It seems like a pattern lately. that site has gotten really lazy. Worse with Dustin leaving.
  10. Body language suggests we are fucked. I know because I am an expert in such matters.
  11. In all seriousness, this strategy - and I am talking about the option 2 scenario you wrote about as the new Sark approach to our football recruiting against the Sec and other bag games. Does this take time to work effectively? More patience needed? Seems like the current results are not indicative of a successful working “play the game” strategy that I am hoping we are truly going to attempt. I see visits by Georgia commits and dewberry and Perkins showing up in Austin so I get encouraged then i see worrisome tea leaves rumors of guys we thought were silent locks on mid week trips to aggy (as an example)and get the feeling of all brakes no gas. I assume a lot of UT fans are just not used to the wild swings that come from an era of essentially open pay for play.
  12. Not sure about this. Will wait for bitterwhiteguy before I decide if this is a good thing.
  13. I recall @closetojumping mentioning in a previous post to watch out for a mid week visit to atm by evans. not good. Hoping he may have more context on this now that it has happened
  14. Bear coming for an unofficial to Austin tomorrow. So now we are foolish. I like to think it means we are getting the “recruiting infrastructure” in place? CTJ - thoughts on this action after your insider convo? moving to tier 1 now?
  15. Info always appreciated. Ctj or anyone else for that matter, not seeing the distinctions between 2 and 3. Anyone that can expand or clarify? Is 3 no deals which would mean category 4. If 3 are some deals then what is the difference from 2? tia
