Anyone think Evans loves us if we’d beat UGA by 30?

I don’t.

This is Garrett Wilson "they don't develop WRs" all over again.

Maybe technically correct (at the time he said it), but belies the true reasoning behind his decisions.

Chris Hummer: No. 1 recruit Zach Evans explains lack of Texas schools in top 5

  Reveal hidden contents

Sounds like UGA's negative recruiting was essentially 1) Texas isn't SEC and 2) "we barely lost to them". Along with the obviou$.

Pretty sad that it worked.

Remember when missing out on those two RB's last year was ok because that pretty much sealed Evans to Texas.....yeah that was fun.

So you're just going to ignore the *fact* that this locks us in for Camar Wheaton next cycle? Holy pessimistic attitude

Man what a bad couple weeks on the recruiting front between this, Ringo news, and Bru. Let's hope for a momentum swing soon

Also, I won't be surprised at all if Evans ends up changing his mind and considering us again. An LSU beatdown could help although I suspect his quote has very little to do with the real reasons for leaving us out

Any reasoning he throws out about Texas not being a championship contender, not beating Georgia badly enough, etc., is complete horseshit.  He doesn’t even list Clemson in his top 5 that is supposedly all about going to a championship contender.

Clemson didn't offer Evans.

LSU hasn’t lost less than 3 games since 2011.  This year was their first top 10 finish since 2011, with a 10-3 record and a narrow win over UCF (who was missing its QB) in the Fiesta Bowl.

He wants to see how we would do against Bama. But we already know how LSU does against Bama. Apparently it's better to lose 8 straight and the last 29-0 than to not play them. 

Honestly trying to use logic with this one is pointless. 

PS let's ass blast LSU in September

Has Ja'Quinden already "committed" to an all-star game? (I hate that I just typed that)

Looks like he has an invite pinned on his twitter but no idea if he "committed" to one. Probably what this is if I had to make an uneducated guess

What bothers me isn't the fact that Evans isn't coming here - I'd be perfectly thrilled with Bijan +1 -  it's just the complete lack of critical and analytical skills at work here.    It's a problem with society at large, too.  Do schools no longer teach these?  With regard to recruiting, I would simply bemoan the gullibility of high school kids were it not for the particular schools that continually end up as the finalists.  I didn't think Zeke had his hand out, but now...

This will be the 4th recruiting class (counting the transition class) for Herman’s staff.  During that period, I wonder what recruits have we landed (or have commitments from) that were primarily recruited by Drayton?  Ingram and Toneil Carter?  

Are there even any recruits other than RBs?  Plus, it seems some of our RB recruits had/have other coaches doing heavy lifting.  Washington was covering Georgia and in on Derrian Brown.  Beck covers Arizona and is in on Bijan.

Ideally, your RB coach is a rainmaker like Beck or Tim Brewster bringing in not just RBs, but also big time recruits at various different positions.  

I mean - yikes.   I get that Mehringer has a douche haircut, but I think the overall level of scorn for recruiting deficiencies on our offensive staff is severely misplaced on this board.

Golfclap right now.

Well the good ol days of getting the best in Texas seem long gone lol. I do wonder how good Texas could be getting the top kids in state every year but the $ec trojan horse via aggy has really put a hit on that thought ever coming to fruition.

We literally did just that last year lol

Bijan's Hudl page says he's 210; 247 has him listed at 200. Either way, he's not exactly as small as I had always assumed he was just from hearing him described. Land him, and I'm completely fine with missing out on the Evans drama, especially since George as the "plus one" always seemed like a drag on that ticket anyway.

I assume the eyes part probably means Seth McGowan is one of the silents and they aren't recruiting Evans anymore

Evans probably just included OU to piss off Oklahoma State and that one 247 mod /s

We've got 3 swings at LSU and OU next year so we'll have our opportunity to change that narrative (not just Zach's) that we aren't contenders

Super K has earned a long leash from me but wtf is that Evans blurb lmao just say what we all know. They aren't recruiting him because they already got their two RBs.

Remember that TFB Texas is an offshoot of the main site, which caters to OU fans. He can't afford to upset them in the slightest.

I’m more inclined to think he included OU just to piss us off.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought he checked in at 187 lbs. at a recent camp/opening?

I don't know if you read through Super K's update, but apparently LSU is the main competition.

Anyway, with Samples and Beck on JQJ, I think we're in good shape.

Yeah I missed it when I wrote that.  He's not going to LSU if he's going to start out at QB.  They already have 2 QB commits.
