Don't have the full article, but apparently Anwar posted something about Arch last night in the OB War Room saying he wouldn't be surprised if Arch took his decision all the way to signing day and also mentioned USC and ND being involved. ðŸ¤£

If there's one publication I expect to know exactly what's happening in cfb recruiting, it's definitely OB.

I'm shocked, shocked I tell you, that floating rumors about Cutcliffe didn't inspire the Mannings to rush to the phone to commit right away. The stench of desperation usually works so well.

That’s the most positive Arch news I’ve heard, considering the source he probably commits to us next week.

They're friends with Cutcliffe who can just text the guy, so I don't think any rumors around that have any effect on them, or are even directed at them, at all.

If anyone subscribes or listens to anything those turds say and believe it, that’s your own fault.

If Saban had done it (kind of surprised he didn't and just tell BOB to fuck off), would it have had the same stink to it or are you just such a grumpy boy? Lots of things to shit on. Hiring Cutcliffe isn't one of them.

You don't think that hiring Cutcliffe - or floating it out there since it's apparently still not a done deal - doesn't have anything to do with Arch?

I mean floating it has nothing to do with Arch - you were talking about floating rumors having an impact. Trying to hire him obviously has a lot to do with Arch.

Bijan drafting a bunch of walk ons and proceeding to win the offseason because it's "more about accountability and buy in than athleticism and strength" is definitely a kool aid nugget I'm going to remember if/when Texas gets pushed around next year.

***TE Ja’Tavion Sanders: Many of you have been waiting for this update for a while. Per three sources, the talented sophomore has upped his intensity and consistency. He’s leaned up some and looking poised for a big spring. With Jared Wiley at TCU and Jahleel Billingsley getting settled in, Sanders has grabbed the bull by the horns in workouts. If this extends to the field he’ll make plays this fall. The receiving talent has never been in question.

Sources say the addition of Billingsley has been good for Sanders.

***Speaking of Billingsley, he's described as a physical freak. The drops we saw in the National Championship game don’t seem to be a concern.

does he want to maximize how good the team he goes to is while he is in school?

and what is the best way to maximize it - by recruiting. he is the #1 player in the class across every group (on3, ESPN, 247, Rivals) and plays QB, if he doesn't maximize his ability to pull folks into the class i will be floored.

idk when he makes his mind up but betting it is well before NSD1

That's important in the weight room.  How about the 'Ole blocking we saw in the National Championship game from him?

if we brought him in to be a blocking TE they just need to nuke the stadium and team today.

Yeah,  I get that.  I was mostly ripping on IT for the drops comment when he hasn't even been on the field yet.  However,  the blocking in the national champ game wasn't substandard - it was non-existent and noticeable to a drunk and very casual viewer of the game (me) who wasn't focused on any player.   I'm talking total lack of give a shit.  Hopefully it was the frustration at the end of a long BOB beatdown.

Expand  

Correct. Brewer improved blocking and most of that was Sark had him blocking on the move. He was still sketch as an in-line blocker. Texas has not had an in-line blocking TE, since Beck. Hate to say it, but there is going to be a lot of pressure on a guy like Helm to develop as an in-line blocking TE. That will really open the offense up. Allow Billingsley/Davis/Sanders to move around and block on the move/use that movement to catch easy passes.

I hear he has been in a pretty innovative offseason program where he is asked to line up with 10 balls side by side, he then works his way down the line longsnapping and attempting to embed the balls into a brick wall. His best score so far is 11.

It’s pretty rare for any top QB to wait until NSD to commit. This is OB creating content out of thin air because there’s not a ton to talk about right now

I’m shocked the guy that sucks at blocking and was asked to block when he clearly already had a foot out the door continued to suck at blocking.

I hear the team has a new attitude this offseason and is working harder than ever before and that there’s a different vibe around the team because players are buying in. Totally different from pervious offseasons. Also talk from inside Belmont is optimistic, they’ve been really impressed with some of the early enrollees and think this roster has the talent to compete for the playoffs.

I totally believe the first two but having a little trouble processing the last one..

Goes against reports our LB's and DB's havent missed a single tackle.

You forgot to mention that the team is really building great chemistry that was missing last year.
