Texas Recruiting Notes 2023: Strippers, Monkeys, and 5-Stars

[kevwun 16438]

That's not exactly a shocker.  You don't keep taking visits if you are committed.

[Handcruser 2815]

Bags

[Burntcowboy 1845]

Guess we can say goodbye to Arch and all the receivers as well 

[Chuckie Finster 23081]

well, that's not ideal

[Handcruser 2815]

So we add Sark and the recruiting hotshots, and get a decommitment from Stewart and Owens and fail (so far) to get ewers back on board.

WTF.

And really, the program as a whole. Do you think they'll shut it down?

[SydneyCarton 49506]

That…really seems odd. 

[gmr548 16701]

Must want to play with Arch at Clemson.

This trend of players unexpectedly committing to us earlier than anyone expects and then decommitting is getting old.

[kevwun 16438]

Players committing out of nowhere early are the ones you have to watch.

[Mitch Hedberg 2117]

Kinda makes you wonder what was talked about between him and Arch. Did Arch recruit him away? I mean he can and has taken visits while still committed. 

[Enchubben 5600]

 Best de-commitment lineup in the nation.  

#1 QB, #2 RB, #4 WR,

[Poe It Up 126]

 Damn, I thought we paid this kid already. 

[GRHorn 105]

Who was the main competition when he committed?

Agreed. I do wonder though if this could also be an indicator of where we stand with Arch.

IT Scoop:

 

RB Rueben Owens, El Campo (El Campo, TX) - 2023 (TEXAS):

He’s getting very familiar with Austin, TX.

Back after an Alabama and LSU trip, he hit Austin on Monday for some one-on-one time with the staff. Then he and his father promptly returned on Friday to see his guys, Arch Manning and Johntay Cook.

Owens really enjoyed the competitive side of the camp and bonding with his "future teammates.”

One of the nation's top tailbacks for 2023 wants to enjoy the recruiting process, so don't be surprised when you see him pop up on other campuses across the country.

But at the end of the day: "I'm solid to the Longhorns. That's not changing."
 

Life comes at you fast

[elguapo 4620]

I doubt this has much if any effect on Arch.

[Burntcowboy 1845]

I was hoping to stir up some shit. Let’s see what other mischief I can get in to

May I suggest getting fucked?

[Tex-19 3013]

Not that it means shit, but his dad told Fong that Texas is still the leader.

Just need him to see Bijan go crazy this year

Would I like Owens to play for UT yes.  Was this expected?  Sure.  Does this mean I'm gonna lay in bed and hug on pillow all day.  Yes, but has nothing to do with a 2023 RB commit.  Let's keep lookin.

[Lonestar88 5175]

It’s rare for someone to commit as early as he did and stay committed the entire time. The timing might be mildly surprising, but the act itself isn’t.

[Sgt Hulk 14457]

Lmfao 

[Blackcat00 769]

Arch is going to do what's best for him and play under a guy that develops his game for the NFL. Not worry about a RB who is indecisive and may have committed too early. I have more confidence landing him than Owens when it is all said and done.

Agree, which makes me wonder what was the point of committing in the first place?

[GreenspointTexas 9974]

A lotta people gonna be shocked when Blue dumps us as well

[SquishMitten 10497]

It's just really suspect. Dude has been openly recruiting for us for so long, saying all the right things, seemed totally committed. Then this out of the blue...I'm not saying there's fuckery afoot, but there's fuckery afoot.

Don't see that one happening. A handful of insiders had Owens as iffy. 

[maninblack 7975]

Not really worried about it right now. Kids are hitting campuses for the first time in a long time and being overwhelmed. We have a staff equipped to handle this now and not a chucklefuck running the program.

you're misreading that one badly

[Brandon 193]

I think things will eventually work themselves out once the season kicks off. Hopefully. 

[Blackcat00 769]

Sark and staff need to full send this NIL shit and keep up with these programs handing out fast food bags of cash.

Not on this board (and lol "dumps us"). Maybe the football board.

I think this board dumped him already friend

Totally committed players don't visit Alabama.

People are really over here expecting a 5* 2023 commit to stay committed when every program that has a pulse is in his ear. Ok. This is why you hire coaches to prove themselves. We aren't gonna be Bama and fOSU overnight. Wtf? You can make promises all day, but at some point you have to show that you can coach these same players at a high level at your new university.

Could be a 16 year old making an emotional decision or he was looking for an initial pop in attention?

Everything you say here makes sense, and yet makes you look even more stupid with your previous bravado.

He ain't going nowhere. He and Blue see Bijan and what Sark can do and he'll get to play more minutes faster here, anyway.

And to think, our state allegedly trusts this guy to put people under. Really makes you question today’s healthcare.

So I said something and was wrong? Holy shit! If only I could find like-minded people who also do the same? 

[kwood4408 768]

Would rather these kids not commit in the first place because the perception of the Decommitmenf is worse than if they didn’t commit at all.
