Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
I can't remember if it were you or another poster. If it weren't you, I apologize. That's my bad. Someone said that, and I guess it wasn't you, and I don't want to scroll up, so just take my apology and let's just put this whole thing to rest and say whatever. Cool?

Arky beating LSU, Cocks beating aggy (no homo) is starting to give me hope that today may in fact be our day, and we will win.

11 dudes beat themselves in front of a crowd. That sounds just like their corps members!

I swear, when aggy is down, the clock moves as fast Rosie O'Donnell's weight loss program, but when they're winning this would already be in the 4th qtr.

Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
Probability most because of Pittman, but Orgeron can actually sell a product, he just can't maintain or use said product to its potential, so they'll probably keep the "$100k hand shake" until they miraculously fall into an above average coach, giving them hope, get good recruits, only to fail again.

Sure thing, champ. It's just a shame that no holes were actually poked through. But have a good one. As for Bowens, his composite is he was #202, so that doesn't make him eligible for the specific criteria that he should be getting playing time early, unlike Frazier who is in the same class, but a top-75 recruit who co-started because, and hang with me here, that's how elite recruits work. But I'm also talking to the same person who can't even look up player stats to see who Georgia's leading rusher is because, like you said, reading is hard.

That run and vision there is exactly why Randall is the man. Both on and off the field. Davidson will get his soon.

Randall with that run, son!

Randall is a dude, and he's earned the right, but Davidson has a very bright future ahead as long as he's healthy. What a great signing. I don't know really anything about Vizz. I vaguely remember his recruitment for some reason, so I naturally assumed he would be the starter. But Dabo would be Uber stupid to just hand it over without giving the other two a shot, stars next to their names or not.

Man, I really like the Clemson frosh RB. Dude has toughness, talent, and pure anger in his runs.

And we would love Moore. Williams is for sure going pro, that was far more hyperbole than the other two. I don't even think Wesco would consider us for any amount of money. I'm gonna edit this: I'm not sure it would be a smart move for Williams to go pro. He's yet to put up 1k and he only has 2 TDs this season. Last season was his best with 11 TD's and 904 yards, so unless he runs an absurd 40 or whatever dumb shit they do to test athletes, he might be better off returning or portaling elsewhere with an experienced QB since Klubnik is gone after this season.

Riley is bad. Like, he's tier four bad. Clemson can do much, much better. Who is nect year's incumbent starter? Vizzina? Helms? Denson as a tryout? Portal?

As a fantasist, I want Texas and Sark to throw stupid money at TJ Moore, Antonio Williams, and Wesco just to see if they (the WR's) would consider it. Wesco for sure doubtful since I think he hates us, but the other two...

I can'ttell if Klubnik is bad or the offense as a whole is just bad? That's just what they need- Moore to get hurt. Dude is a stud.

If Arky hired coach O, there cannot be anyone who has failed upwards more than him. And I would hate it because the motherfucker can recruit.

If he has any chance of coming up for air, he has to do it. It's a shame for Dabo that he can't hire Tony Elliot back. Man, I thought Clemson might take a step back, but not into a sinkhole in Japan. I "assumed" Klubnik would improve, if nothing else but because he has Wesco, Moore, and Williams to throw to.

Two rare goodies tonight. Clemson - Louisville Oregon - Minny So is this year Dabo's swan song? 4-5 Clemson is...well, let's just say it's worse than having your babysitter give your kids a bath, and that babysitter happens to be Jared from Subway.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
So before we begin, I am not ranking TE as a skill position due to there being different types of them from all-around where they have no real weakness as a player at the position due to it being a scarcity and unicorn (George Kittle, Travis Kelce, Mark Andrews, Brock Bowers,TJ Hockenson, Antonio Gates, Tony Gonzalez, Jason Witten, Shannon Sharpe, you get the gist), blocking (Spencer Shannon), receiving but trouble with blocking (Ja'Tavion Sanders; Gunnar Helm), or unknown due to age and how they grow into the position (Jordan Washington - can catch, blocking is to be expected...a weak point). Great, so Oregon has Da'Juan Riggs, a three-star RB, #56 RB, and #747 overall, Jeremiah McClellan, top-100 recruit, #18 WR, and #86 overall, Ryan Pellum, not with the team, but we'll add him was top-250, #36 WR, and #219 overall, Dillon Gresham who was the #58 WR, and #407 overall, along with Jack Ressler, a three-star and the #139 WR with N/A for overall ranking. I was wrong that if you're above a top-100 recruit, you should play, amirite? Surely you don't mean that four-star = no RS, right? I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and say you aren't daft and know what I meant when I said no RS; meaning top-50-75 level recruits should see some playing time due to them coming out as one of the most highly touted players in their class. Does that mean ALL players? Of course not. But being that highly rated usually means they should be seeing the field year one at some capacity, even if for 2-3 snaps a game. Arian Smith was between top-50 to top-100 recruit, he was #44 247, #80 On3, #64 for ESPN, but regardless, you went back to 2019 to get his information. A single player. Good on you, man.- irrelevant for something 7 years ago for a single player, not putting me in my place by listing 5+ names of highly rated guys taking a RS. Bowens was a three-star according to 247, and I can't find a composite. We aren't going to just randomly pick whatever site fits your narrative, and since 247 does the composites for all sites, we're using their ranking. But if you want to just say 'well, ESPN and On3 have him as a four-star,' that would make the composite useless, wouldn't it? Obviously as a three-star he needed the RS, and no, he's not the team's leading rusher, that would be Nate Frazier, who didn't RS. He was a top-75 recruit and he split carries with Trevor Etienne, making him a co-starter as a freshman. Henderson was a top-150 prospect per 247 composite, and the #15 RB, which again, does not disprove anything. He's clearly not at a stage where he can even be trusted to spell their literal only RB, Jeremiah Cobb. After Cobb, it's two QBs, Arnold and Ashton Daniels before we get to another RB, Damari Alston, who has 3 more carries and 6 more yards rushing as a senior than James Simon, a freshman. So let's see how those stack up - For Texas and Oregon, pretty similarly, actually. Both have mostly all three-star skill guys with Texas having the edge with five-star Wingo ranked #32, but didn't RS, and Jerrick Gibson #79 had to play out of necessity due to injury, while Butler ranked #122 and did RS. McClellan was ranked #86, while everyone else was a very low four-star (Gresham), or a three-star, so those guys tend to RS since they aren't top-50-ish guys who usually play. For example - all guys in the top-75 in last two classes UF: DJ Lagway #1 QB #3 overall - played and got hurt Dallas Wilson #8 WR #50 overall - played until he broke his right foot Vernell Brown III #5 WR #35 overall - playing currently UGA: Nate Frazier #2 RB #71 overall - co-starter with Travis Etienne until this year (only skill pos player in top-100) Talyn Taylor #6 WR #40 overall - has been part of 3 games this season (this is how you prove me wrong). RS candidate due to WR room being senior heavy AGS: Jerome Myles #3 WR #19 overall - injured for season Terry Bussey #1 ATH #16 overall - played all year fOSU: Jeremiah Smith #1 WR #1 overall - we all know Mylan Graham - talked about above Quincy Porter - still playing, albeit sparingly. Might RS Clem: Gideon Davidson #3 RB #69 overall - has played in all games TJ Moore #4 WR #21 overall - played all games Bryant Wesco Jr #11 WR #57 overall - played all games You get the point. You aren't a dullard, you just want to argue for the sake of arguing. I don't need to keep going school by school to prove higher rated skill prospects (top-75) outside of an outlier or two get playing time at high-level CFB programs, whether they're immediate contributors or only get a few snaps a game. Sark is stubborn and has some fascination with a "trust tree" that apparently only we seem to use considering no other program seems to have any issues getting their higher rated skill guys game opportunities, regardless of quarter. They seem to grasp that if they want this kid to learn they need real time, against real competition during conference play. Peer to peer, not 1s vs 3s in practice shit. It doesn't matter if it's 2 snaps or 60 snaps a game.
