49 in Sept.  It sucks - went from jogging and a swimmer to tremors and shakes.  I'm scared to death of fixing a light bulb on a ladder.  I just pray it isn't MS.  Neither have a blood test, it takes t

I feel like I read or saw an interview somewhere years ago that they made that "window" out of sugar in order for it to break without harming the actor when he headbutted it. 

My buddy hung out/worked out with him a bunch when he played Leatherface in the Texas Chainsaw remake they shot here about 20 years ago.  His opinion was that it wouldn’t have really mattered what it was made out of because the roids part wasn’t fiction.  
 

He also said Jessica Biel was a smoke show in person but a tiny human.

WR Kyle Parker has been talking with the staff recently. Transfers are what I would be most interested in poaching. Harold Perkins anyone?

I don't think Kyle Parker moves the needle much. He is one of their lowest rated recruits. Jalen Brown would. Shelton Sampson would. All of their EDs would. Mickens, Howard, and Heard would.

I like our committed class, but if we end up with Kyle Parker, that would move my needle quite a bit.

isolated stats from one high school game mean everything. 

 

 

I just reread the write-up that Hudson Standish did on Kyle Parker back in January:

https://www.on3.com/teams/texas-longhorns/news/texas-extends-offer-to-2023-lucas-lovejoy-wr-kyle-parker/

Quote

Outlook- Broke out on the Texas high school football scene this year catching 48 receptions for 775 yards and 13 touchdowns, along with over 1,400 all-purpose yards for the 5AD2 region two finalists Lovejoy Leopards. Parker has a great relationship with Texas WR coach Brennan Marion from his time at Pitt.

How he fits at the next level- Parker has the tools to move inside or outside to hunt matchups.

Strengths- Verified speed and yards after catch ability are the two attributes that immediately grab your attention. Parker works with DFW WR trainer Margin Hooks and it shows with how polished of a route runner he already is. Also has the ability to return kicks and punts at the next level.

Areas for Improvement / Concern- Most of the concerns with Parker are more nitpicks than genuine concerns, would like to see more receptions for Lovejoy next year but he is in a loaded WR room with SMU commit Jaxson Lavender and 2024 WR/TE Parker Livingstone.

Comparison- Former Oklahoma All-American WR Ryan Broyles

On3 profile scouting report:

Quote

Technical receiver with advanced route-running skills who projects in the slot at the next level. Has measured around 5-foot-10.5, 180 pounds heading into his senior season. Plays in a spread, vertical passing offense at the high school level, but shows lateral agility and route polish to easily project to a complex route tree in college. Wins with quickness and agility in the route and after catch phases. Capable of breaking off defensive backs with his change of direction. Picks up yards with the ball in his hands, both after the catch and as a punt returner. Quicker than fast, but can turn in some long gains with the ability to make defenders miss in space. Has strong hands at the catch point and can win in traffic. Not physically imposing in terms of his stature or frame. Younger for the class, turning 17-years old in June prior to his senior season.

Parker also ran a 10.89 100-meter track time in the spring.

If Jalen Hale commits elsewhere, Parker seems like a high-floor slot WR prospect that's a no-brainer take if UT can flip him.

I was lucky to hang with Jessica a few times back in the day, who is not a tiny person, but she is a smoke show. Hottest thing? Believe it or not, her skin. The "like porcelain" cliche comes from women like her. Crazy.

So you are saying that she has nice skin?

On3 Consensus 4-star DL Markis Deal (Garland, Texas/Naaman Forest) will attend the Alabama-Texas game Saturday per a family member. This is an unofficial visit for the 6-foot-4.25, 285-pounder.

OV to Georgia is September 24.

Final OV is likely to Texas, with Oklahoma still trying hard for the OV.

TCU, USC snd Arkansas remain on the list.

Hmmm... So 247 has Markis Deal as a high 4-star recruit as a DL prospect?! That's interesting becuz IT/On3 has always considered him a high 4-star recruit as an OL prospect, but a low 4-star recruit at best as DL prospect.

Shook the Mansters hand a million years ago during a radio show at a Tony Romos restaurant in Addison. Can’t remember the host, it was during his playing days. Guess it’s a CSB

Tones Romes had a restaurant in the 80s?  he must have been a savvy kid.

Am I remembering correctly that we had a GA as a primary point of contact for Deal recently, or was that Zalance Heard?

Davis headed up the Heard recruitment at the beginning and Flood was supposed to take over for him once Heard made it to campus this summer, but that never happened.

I don't ever remember a GA being mentioned as being involved for either of those guys.
