Gotta' go through Liberty Eylau first to pick up Lagaryon Carson.

Jordan Jefferson – Navasota (6-2/300, Texas A&M): The earliest A&M commit in recent memory, Jefferson is one of the strongest players in the state.

Rakestraw stated that he wanted to play close enough so that his parents could come to the games...Mizzou and Bama are both further than Austin....just saying...

Distance is no obstacle for the Red Elephant Club.

Hank South (BamaOnLine staffer) on Jackson and Rakestraw:

I think Jackson and Rakestraw commit to Bama so I'd say pretty good if you ask me lol.

Alabama has a hard 25 this year don't they?

Someone(s) is getting Saban-fucked and doesn't know it yet.

Edited February 4, 2020 by JBJ

[Katfid54 9,005]

Given the Princely and Rakestraw news--and in light of Noah Cain, Trey Sanders, etc. in 2019; Vernon Jackson, etc. in 2018; and K'Lavon Chaisson in 2017--I'm reiterating my prior take that:

That would be epic.  I'm sure aggy would sign him up though

[JBJ 3,828]

It's gonna be multiple.

Alabama can only send out 3 NLIs for tomorrow.  They already have 4 commits and a transfer (who doesn't sign but would prevent one of the 25 signees from enrolling).

[LTtxfan 50,007]

Please tell me that Surly didn't wait all this time for a new Texas DL coach that previously coached at aggy??

Please...

Your offer was always blue/gray shirt, son.

A grad transfer CB wouldn't make sense. A normal transfer from the 2019 or 2020 classes who'd be ready to play in 2021 would make sense 

There are no bad grad transfers

We need to hit the CB market. I thought Valai was here for a reason.

Don’t conflate the perceived notion of “why” he was brought in the actual ability of a dude who has 1 year as an on field coach and was hired and evaluated by Chris Ash and Tom Herman to do that job. Their track records identifying coaching talent is about as robust as Satya’s track record identifying silver linings. 
 

I can hire Billy Liucci to give unbiased, smart commentary but actually getting what I paid for and expected seems pretty unlikely.

One of them (Jayson Jones) already silently committed to Oregon, so that's where Jackson's spot is coming from.

The post-NSD1 CB market was pretty thin this year. Dunson was slow, and they seemed to overestimate their ability to haul in Rakestraw so they didn't chase Whitley.

Hopefully there's some solid transfer options.

Should add a title extension of something like “How I Learned To Stop Worrying and To Love This Fucking Bomb of a Class”. Something to memorialize the buttfuck that this season caused. Great top end talent here, but they did shit for depth and closing gaps in areas of need. A class outside of the top 10 at Texas in a non-transition year is fucking garbage and the head coach should have his coke-addled salary docked for poor performance and trash behavior.

Horns 247 / Gabe Brooks / On Dixon and Tykiest Crawford

Spoiler

Ronnielonghorn83 said... (original post)Gabe, when is Dixon commiting? What's the holdup?

GabeBrooks said... (original post)I think something will happen today or tonight.

Gabe, what's your pick?

GabeBrooks said... (original post)My Crystal Ball forecast has been Texas since October and I'm riding with that.

Bnos7 said... (original post)off topic but where do you see Tykiest Crawford landing?

GabeBrooks said...Think it will be JUCO for now.

GabeBrooks said... Something to remember is Dixon has a road basketball game tonight. So if it happens tonight it might be a little later.

Not disagreeing. Just wondering how his salary can be coke-addled. 

Thanks. I'll hang up and duck.

Someone had to have been Tony Montana-deep into the yayo to give this fuckface the contract he received.

It's OK, guys. Our NSD2 woes are over cuz Herman went out and got Mark fuckin Hagen, a coach so fucking shitty even aggy couldn't mythologize him. 

I guess as long as Valai is paying enough that we don't really have to recruit, I'm ok with it. Otherwise, what an awful hire, especially from a recruiting perspective.

Shit hire imo, but aggy always "never liked them anyway"s their ex-coaches.

Yeah, but they couldn't even find a way to like Hagen when he was there. At just about any point, if I remember correctly. We all remember the Chief in a deer blind with his snuff boy, the fearsome Marine, and Terry Price, Ace Recruiter. There's always been a lot of insane hero worship for aggy. And all of them have basically had about as much impact on anything as a wet fart. And they were still better than Hagen. You are 100% correct:
