Stroh definitely looks like he moves better than his Jr year hudl.  Credit to him for losing bad weight while increasing strength.  Seems like someone that'll come in and work his ass off and hopefully starts as a RS Soph and has a good career.

Is this how David Hicks' recruitment is trending?

yes. he doesnt like our scheme, and is dad is selling him to the highest bidder

What position does Hicks want to play in CFB? Just watching his junior H.S. highlights, he's already big enough to play DE in college 2 years before he ever see a college S&C program & he interchangeably plays both DE & DT. So I think he'd play DT at UT.

He’s still pretty stiff.  

But hes gonna be a guard at texas. He doesnt need to bend as much as a tackle does. He seems to move pretty well for his size. Especially getting to the 2nd level. 

Hes got some dog in him. And work ethic. After the oast class, hes a solid take, trending up.

He looks a lot better laterally. Playing in space at LT will be great for his development. He still plays high and needs some flexibility, but definitely trending up.

Needs to keep his pad level lower, but he’s very explosive for that size

He's definitely explosive at standing straight up at the snap of the ball.

I very much like what I see. It's probably hard to coach a kid who is having so much success not worrying about pad level. He'll learn. He moves well and seems sorta mean.

Was this the game against Duncanville? I don't remember hearing his name on TV.

He flashed quite a bit in the first half but was definitely fatigued by the end of the game. They rarely ran to his side, so he was always in pursuit. In fact, I’m pretty sure he was the one who tracked down the DVille QB when he suffered that knee injury.

I believe Niblett, Johntay and Wilson all had 50+ yd TD's this week. 

Good.

So did Hale, fwiw

After the performance of these 4 WR commits recruits this past weekend, Nahlin is now backtracking on the comments he made last month about not loving UT's '23 WR class:

Weird that fast athletic receivers aren’t fits? 

I'm starting to think that what good coaches are looking for is different than what $9.95ers are looking for.

I’d be willing to bet that coaches aren’t looking for subscribers….I mean coaches other than Franchione.

That means he never watched Sark at Bama. His defense makes even less sense.

9.95ers seem to prefer guys that are a bit more topped out in terms of development. Coaches know how they can transform or develop a kid with certain traits predictably. They don't really take into account things like taking a RB and making him a LB, they just say he is the 100th best RB in the state. Gerry does this better than most, but he still seems to struggle to pinpoint where guys will play in things like OL and defensive backfield unless it is glaringly obvious. 

They didn't seem to be super high on Niblett, but after watching him this weekend I don't know how that kid isn't a must have guy in your WR room. They didn't like Jonah Wilson, but Marion has been after the guy full bore for 2 years.

Do we have 4 WR commits? Or are some of you guys just lumping Hale in there? That recruitment is far from over. 

I've not viewed this WR haul as some amazeballs group, personally. I hope they turn out awesome, of course. Wilson was a target of Marion before he got here, so that's always made me feel good. Cook and Niblett are always accused of having weak hands, so if that goes away this year for them, fucking awesome. 

I know this, it would be great to land Hale too. We are going to need two of them to hit big time, because the portal competition for WRs is going to be absurd every cycle. It would be nice to homegrow a few top WRs and keep them.

Yep. His defense is even dumber than his original take. Sark is not that tied to specific WR fits like Herman was, so saying he was against it originally because of fit is really stupid.

When Nahlin made his comments about UT's potential '23 WR last month, he was factoring Hale being part of the class.

especially given the abundance of receiver talent in-state every year; if the coaches do their damn job we really should never need transfer receivers

Not sure what it is and for very different reasons than fraudfatassketch but Nahlin is unlikable. I've never met the guy, just going on his work(pods, writing and videos). He's smug & condescending when it's not at all necessary. Just shut your mouth, point everything towards Cook, BB & Gerry & collect the $.

You’ve just described 98% of the Surly roster. I think the disdain comes from charging $9.95 for it. We’re used to getting that for treefiddy. He’s overpriced.

I seem to be surviving not having a roster for game week surprisingly well. 

Not that i ever gave a shit to begin with. 

So, i thought it best to give yall a wellness check. 

Do they like have a support line or something for people that this might really upset?  

I heard 1-800- shut up pussy is available.

He’s always claiming he’s from Missouri, but he’s not.  He’s from California.

Winner takes on Derek Warehime in a biggest shit contest? I assume the Little family will be the judges, naturally.
