Don’t know who needs to hear this but Duce Robinson ain’t coming here and was never coming here 

[TXRed 3184]

IT confirming the Baxter visit. 

[markstanco 12505]

Talking about "going down" to Oregon and "going up there" to Arizona State -- where is Duce? In the Upside Down?

Probably Australia. It’s summer there and I hear the toilets flush backwards.

From what I've read, USC is the biggest threat for Duce Robinson.  Their #1 receiving tight end, Lake McRee, caught nine passes so far this season.  JT Sanders has 49.

Lincoln Riley doesn't use the TE in his offense.

 

Threat to who? Georgia?

[Dr.Dre 199]

Baxter going elsewhere after Bijan wins Doak Walker and the Oline gets older/stronger/wiser? C’mon man.

RB room going to be stacked for a while with Bijan’s performance oh and Roschon too.

J Brooks is a beast and Keilan has his place.  We’ll see about Blue and Wisner but I suspect Baxter sees significant minutes.

Wisner can’t even hold his starting position in high school

This is my concern, too. Corum and even the kid from Illinois.
 

The TCU game fucked Bijan. Gameday in town, whole nation watching and the coaches/offense fucked Bijan right in the ass for all to see. Corum being sidelined against tOSU might save Bijan, but I kinda doubt it.

Yep, “Down Under” the shitters suck the sewage from the pipes, and then shoot it up your asshole. The bidets are even worse. Pinpoint accuracy.

Mark Andrews did not exist

Don’t forget about Grant Calcaterra & Austin Stogner. If Spencer Rattler had lived up to his potential last season & didn’t get benched for a true freshman in Caleb Williams, you could probably add Brayden Willis to the list of standout pass catching OU TEs under Lincoln Riley.

Some people are just directionality challenged. I had to pick up a girl at C-Mart in college because she got lost walking to my place at 23rd & San Gabriel from the DG house.  Go past Abels and hang a right was too complicated.  She got lost, walked back to C-Mart, and called me from the pay phone.

Explain to me again why we are pursuing a directionally challenged person whose main role is to (hopefully) run precise routes so that the QB can get him the ball…

Yeah, directional awareness is totally overrated when running pass routes.

He should. Out of the 3 finalists, he has the most all purpose yards, the best ypc, and tied for most tds.

Almost like the running back doesn’t matter in Michigan’s offense.

He's a composite 4* now.  On3 just ranked him #135 in the nation.

[Post Oak 20184]

I would've offered him already. If you watch his film you see him doing a lot of the same things Sanders does in this offense.  I guess they're waiting on Duce to tell them no.

I thought Derek Williams was an EE?  Is he planning to sign early?

Yup. Especially on defense where we're going to lose a lot of experience. Anthony Hill enrolling early (assuming he comes) helps a bunch, too. 

 

[gmr548 16504]

7 LOS EE’s and your QB is so fucking money. Really they’re all big, but that part especially.

They also said they’re going to try to lock him up before NSD1 and see if they can change it.

Justin Benton is an EE, if we push for him. I think Roderick Pierce is our primary target here

If we do end up losing Williams then we sure as hell better go big at Safety in the portal. We may need 2 or 3.

We need to grab one from the portal regardless.. Also IIRC, CTJ said there was a P5 starting Safety that is interested coming here

Not as much as playing the full game, getting a minuscule number of touches and losing would have. I don’t mean to wring my hands over it, but knowing the national media, they’re going to favor the guy on the playoff team who never really laid an egg, regardless of whether or not he’s truly the better RB. These awards aren’t handed out by NFL scouts.

Baxter, Cook, Muhammed, Lefau, and (potentially) Hill coming in is big as well. At least 3 of those guys could be day 1 starters or heavily in the rotation.

Lefau especially is huge as I think we might have needed to dip into the portal at LB, even if we Lefau and Hill sign, if he wasn't an EE. If he shows up as expected I think they are confident he can play enough immediately in that Overshown spot they don't need to get a guy. Obviously getting Hill is huge as well but I haven't seen the same expectations of him being a year one impact guy as he likely just shadows Ford and backs him up.

They really like the Stanford CB (who would be safety for us) that just hit the portal. I don't think he was someone they were targeting before the end of the season but I could see him as the primary pivot now that Anderson and Mathews are far less likely to leave Aggie.
