    Cal prioritizing Nwokobia is a good sign since they've started evaluating and developing DBs very well under Wilcox and DeRuyter.

    https://www.texascrimelog.com/austin/2019/12/peter-bean-2100-0-driving-while-intoxicated/ Not sure if this was already covered, but Peter doesn't seem to be doing well.

    To add to this, I think this guy has a good shot at transferring to Rutgers. His HS school coach, Augie Hoffmann, is now on the staff and Schiano is actively using the portal to upgrade the talent level at every position.

    NC State has developed some outstanding G/C prospects in recent years. Doeren probably would’ve moved on from them by now if he weren’t so dull.

    It’s probably not the case here, but it certainly doesn’t help UT recruiting that the program isn’t accommodating to scouts. I need to find the article again, but it seems like UT has pretty rigid rules for scout visitation and limited availability to watch players practice.

    I apologize for not memorizing each one of your 10,841 posts. It's strange how the most successful coach in UT basketball history wasn't up to your standards when he was hired. It's almost like your opinion on this means very little. Also, Buzz Williams would never leave A&M for Texas. After this year, Willard will have a better resume than Wojo at Marquette. I guess down-on-his-luck Kevin will just stay in Jersey and continue to run a program superior to UT's. Hell, Steve Pikiell will have Rutgers in a better place than UT for the foreseeable future.

    Poor thing, your precious Rick Barnes accomplished much less pre-Texas than a loser like Kevin Willard. Clearly that drives you insane.
  8. George Clooney
    Sure, but I don't care enough to comb through tens of pages of your pots to find those names. You seem confident about these people, so I'm sure thinking of three would be no trouble. Also, Kevin Willard has done better in the past five years than Rick Barnes ever did at Providence and Clemson. He's going to win the Big East this year, while Barnes never finished higher than 4th in either the Big East or ACC.

    So you know who the potential candidates are, but can't take a minute to list them? Strange. Go tell any college basketball fan around the country that Texas is too good for scrub coaches like Kevin Willard, and they'll laugh at you. By the way, John Beilein wants nothing to do with Texas.

    I get that he hasn't hard tournament success so far, but he's still just 44 and is growing as a coach. I really want to know who you think deserves to be UT's next coach. He has to have already had tournament success while also being attainable.
  11. George Clooney
    I'm first and foremost a Rutgers fan, so naturally I pay attention to basketball in Jersey. Also, you're overestimating the stature and importance of the Texas basketball job compared to that of Seton Hall. They have very high expectations there (though not quite as high as UT's). I understand you wanting someone with more success, but who do you think Texas could actually pull according to your criteria? If I just go down the kenpom rankings and don't stop until I find someone reasonably attainable who meets your expectations, Dana Altman is the first stop. I'm not sure he's even attainable though, so I guess Musselman is the next stop. Arkansas would fight hard for him, and I think they'd win out. It'll be fun to watch Rutgers play in the tournament while Texas sits at home. I guess you don't care though because Steve Pikiell is just some plucky, unproven coach with less success than Shaka so far.

    Kevin Willard is doing well at Seton Hall. It took him a while to get the Pirates back up to their expectations, but he's finally done it.
  13. George Clooney
    I agree on Fickell wholeheartedly; MSU needs to do whatever it takes to get him. I think it's still too early to tell if Geoff Collins is actually a good coach, but the potential for GT is certainly there. I really like Fleck too, and it'll be interesting to see what they do this year. As for the B1G as a whole, there are tons of interesting storylines. Can James Franklin take Penn State to the next level? Will anyone in the West unseat Wisconsin as the best program on that side? Can Schiano rebuild from the ash left by Ash? I'm biased, but I trust Schiano to slowly build up RU football again. The Pac 12 is a strange conference, and it's tough to tell which teams will be the main challengers to Oregon in a few years. I think Mel Tucker at CU is a great fit, and I think they could give A&M a scare in 2021 in Boulder. It's tough to project UW because while Jimmy Lake is a defensive mastermind, he made a terrible OC hire in John Donovan.

    Oklahoma St in 2014. FSU won 37-31.

    I know it won’t happen, but it’d great to see a Stan vs Federer final.
  16. George Clooney
    I hope Stan can make the final this year.
  17. George Clooney
    He went to HS close to Rutgers, and us delusional Rutgers fans thought he would end up in Piscataway early on in his HS career. In my opinion, he was always going to be a guy who didn't make an immediate impact because he was pretty raw. However, he just didn't look good at PSU whatsoever. Maybe there was something off the field affecting him, but I think he was and still is overrated.
  18. George Clooney
    Tennessee just seems like a perfect storm for Evans. They’re dirty, desperate, in the SEC, and have a few quality (or promising) o-linemen to sell him on. Plus, Jim Chaney loves to run the ball.
  19. George Clooney
    Oh so he’s the head of NPA, a group I’m sure Jeremy Pruitt wants to essentially control. I’m surprised Tennessee never made headway with Evans because it seems like a natural fit.

    Their OL losses are definitely a concern for them, but Steele rotates players heavily throughout their defense in all game situations. Auburn really needs Bo Nix to improve heavily so their receivers can actually take advantage of their talent. Also, they'll likely start all redshirt juniors or JUCO guys on the OL to replace their starters (who actually didn't block as well as their experience indicates). It'll be interesting to see what Chad Morris can do with their offense. I think their biggest issue is the DL losses since they can't really replace Derrick Brown or Marlon Davidson.

    He wasn't able to mend a rift in their locker room last year so they had a bunch of guys transfer out. As a result, they had to play inexperienced QBs and most of their defense had two years or less of experience this season. Go through their leading tacklers and it's pretty astonishing to see just how many young guys started. https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/schools/virginia-tech/2019.html

    There was a ref like six feet away looking directly at the sideline too
  23. George Clooney
    Hutzler would actually be a great hire. SCar's linebackers are well-regarded in every game preview write up I've seen involving them. He also recruited Zacch Pickens, among other great players, last year. https://247sports.com/Player/Zacch-Pickens-87363/high-school-160411/

    Cristobal is getting some of their standout players to stay, and they have tons of talented underclassmen behind them. They won't win the national title next year, but I think they will eventually as long as Mario stays there long-term.
