Between Crownover, Phillips, and Roberts (Jaiden's brother), they have a lot of guys they're looking at potentially greyshirting

though it looks like they'll miss on Evans, Shepherd, and McKinnley Jackson. 

Crownover won't be a GS option because it's an OV, right?

Can’t remember if that just makes blue shirts unavailable or also greyshirts

Yeah, I think Jackson is LSU unless Bama can get him

Taking two RB makes the most sense for them, especially if one can be there in the spring to give them more practice bodies

This is actually lucid, reasonable speculation that most (semi-)sober Texas fans would agree with.

He starts with his worst point (the guys leaving on the OL were our weakest linemen, and they're being replaced by pretty highly-recruited dudes, not JAGs).

The new WRs should be strong too. The coaching stuff is the most reasonable piece.

True. But they can’t apply the same level of criticism to their own team and it’s talent advantage relative to their schedule, and come up with a similar record prediction.

We can't all play multiple FCS schools, all the directional Texas schools, Arkansas, Vanderbilt, and South Carolina.

This.  Their schedule next year is an absolute joke.  And just because they struggle with them every year doesn't make the Miss. schools any good either.  And aren't they hemorrhaging players and coaches right now?  JFC those idiots have zero self awareness.  Zero.

I don't mind their insults as much as shake my head at the sheer ignorance.

And calling the big12 by far the worst conference shows both bias and stupidity.

Yeah the Pac 12 and ACC are way worse than the Big 12. We beat the absolute dog shit of the 2nd best Pac 12 team, after losing 4 conference games.

It really pains me to think that a whole generation of aggy recruits are going to miss out on going down a water slide with hammster. What a waste.

Would Arky adding King give them a chance at beating aggy?  They've got some real good WR's.

Briles was his coach and OC during his bonkers 2018 year.  It would make sense.

2018 final record: 9-4 (#16)

2019 final record: 8-5 (unranked)

The first $7.5m has really revolutionized the program!

[honolulu horn 6165]

They'll have a much improved record next year, given the garbage on their schedule. They have 3 losses (assuming Auburn, Bama and LSU aren't hit with catastrophic disasters) but everything else is a likely win.

with all of his choices, why would he pick A&M with a returning starter vs any other school where he could come in and be the presumptive starter?

LSU has won 8 of the last 9 played (they didn't play from 95 to 11, and A&M won the last 5 before 95)

as a reminder, since joining the SEC, A&M is:

• 1-8 vs LSU (won in 18)
• 1-8 vs Bama (won in 11)

It’s what happens when you recruit mercenaries for sale, they bale the second things don’t go their way. Having guys that bleed for their team like Rojo does can save your bacon later on.

I love how they like to attempt to boil it down to just W's and L's, while ignoring the fact that HOW they lost to those teams also might matter?

 

Also, can you imagine what the dumpster fire at FSU would have look like with Jimbo if the portal had existed while he was there. hoo boy.

The “same” osu team...minus their starting qb and all American wr. 
“Half dozen 4th quarter calls to barely beat” - 5 point lead to start the 4th, extended to 13 with 11:44 to go, where it stayed until osu scored a garbage td with 1:40 left.  Their Q4 possessions went TO on downs, int, 3 and out but Jones muffs the punt and they recover which leads to their late td.  So without OUR mistakes they don’t get any points in the 4th. 
their end of half td was set up by a fumbled punt as well so we gifted osu 14 of its 30 points when we should have caught punts and taken a knee. Punting to us was their best offensive weapon.

Take this with a grain of salt but I saw on Twitter where someone mentioned A&M players being lied to and how there’s distrust with Jimbo and the system/culture he’s running
