It’s stupid number shit that Jason Higdon used to post as supposed hints to recruiting. It pops up every now and then whenever some $9.95ers reminds someone of it. Posters then feel obligated to make 20 posts of random numbers while, I assume, just howling about it behind their keyboard.

Finally can tell my aggy story.    Have a good insight into this kids recruitment and I’m still laughing about his visit to aggy. Dude gets his player host (I’ll let y’all find who that is) and

How do you think this is helpful? Not being a jerk, just asking y'all to keep your shit together and use common sense. In any event, I know for a fact that nothing ever happens with Texas until a

He could have if he isn't. Play devil's advocate and tell us why you feel about this guy's overall approach to his recruitment and how that either translates to the next level or doesn't matter.

I was going to be a little more direct, I think Junior and CTJ aren't hip to 15 year old tv shows.

Never watched it while it was on. Binged it with my wife in the summer of 2020 and thought it was great. Same for True Detective Season 2. Apparently, those shows were trash when released slowly but have been reviewed well when watched in short order. The amount of people I know who watched either of those the traditional way who mock me when I say that is absurd. 

Also, Breaking Bad is the opposite. It’s almost unwatchable if you binge it because it is just constant, angry, brutal, depressing shit.

So that’s a “no” on binge watching the last 14 years of Texas football, then. I’ll stick to watching the Big 12 championship mini-movie until the semifinal one comes out.

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I'm not sure I want Evans to sign with Texas.  I know it's new age in college football, but if you're just chasing the best NIL deal then you can go elsewhere.  I want players who want to be Longhorns above all else.

The hemming and hawing of Evans (and Moore, tbh) has kind of rubbed me the wrong way.

You bring a lot of great information and insightful opinions to this board and I thank you for that. I bring neither, but..
True Detective season 2 is dog shit. I have streamed it thru twice in the assumption that I was wrong the first time but no. White dog shit on an otherwise stellar series.

I thought this was satire. Replace the words “Texas” with “A&M and “Longhorns” with “Aggies” and this is word for word a typical Texags post.

Season 2 didn’t have a chance after the expectation that Season 1 left.  Season 1 was awesome.

I refuse to have this conversation again I refuse to have this conversation again I refuse to have this conversation again

What did Moore even do though? Take two visits? Not make a decision on your preferred timeline?

Lol, maybe.

I just really like the class we've put together so far, and don't like head games and manufactured drama.

Everyone is looking to make the best decision for them and those around them. You would do the same. If you have more time to consider all of the angles and potentially sweeten the deal, you would/should do the same.

No idea if it means anything, but 4 of Aaron Butler's last 5 IG follows are Arch Manning, Cooper Manning, Xavier Worthy, and KJ Lacey

This would be odd. I don't think I had ever heard of this guy before a few days ago (but I don't follow this stuff like some of you degenerates).

I’ve passed on higher paying gigs because the environment was obviously garbage. 

I don’t blame anyone for negotiating the best deal he can get, but I’d prefer someone engage for what Sarkisian is building rather than some extra cash, all else being equal.

I don’t think either of those recruitments are driven by NIL. Not saying it isn’t a factor, but that’s not the big issue. 

Evans would have signed undramatically if they had kept Fisher and looked okay. 

Moore has barely been around and he’s about to make his decision.

Well, I can honestly say that I don’t ever recall watching something twice just to make sure it sucked. That said, I can’t die on that hill. I realize plenty of folks just didn’t like that season.

Saw an article that talked about the writer and how he had spent something like 20 years of his life writing Season 1 - and then had 6 months to get a script out for Season 2.

You mean to tell me the first season was scripted? I thought it was just the MoC and his buddy drinking Lone Star, fucking models, and riffing off the cuff about nihilism for hours on end.
