Thanks. I have been on the boards since 1997 when I was a student at Texas. We've spent decades as fans and board patrons feeling powerless to create any real change. The Internet, social media,

I work closely with a certain previously committed 5 star QB's father (hint: its Quinn Ewers, for those who haven't been following recruiting closely like I have) and chatted with him a bit this after

They make it sound like Savion Red is a sought after commodity.  I though he was our backup plan if we whiff on what we actually want?  Atleast I hope, when was the last time (other than Roshon) a tween project guy did anything for this team?

He’s been very much a target since he was offered. Being offered as RB2. 

We have much better RB 2 and 3 and 4 right now….  Just saying, he would never see the field at RB. Hell we got K Rob and he never sees the field, this guy won’t touch it and is a waste.

Somehow every point you make is less sensical than the last.

It’s part battered longhorn syndrome that’s use to wasted recruits….  We normally don’t do much with guys like this and with the money now we will get better guys then this.  My prediction is he doesn’t see the field much and I’d say that has a much better chance of happening then him being a star player.  Talk to me again in a few years.

Not every player is a star. Great teams have RoJos to fill in the gaps.

No telling if he plays or not ever but IMO changing the soft ass mentality that has plagued our program over the years by bringing in backups that want to get physical is a good thing.

Looks it’s Lebron doing the look at me I’m the greatest!   He’s either talking about himself or flopping, those two things prove he’s not the greatest.

There’s plenty of better proven receivers in the portal now…..

Thanks for stopping by, feel free to leave now.

Definitely.  Not sure where Savion got the WR idea, looks like he mainly played a wildcat position from watching his HUDL clips.  He looks like a violent runner but not necessarily a mauler at RB. 

He was a WR before his senior year. They moved him to QB because he was by far the best athlete on the team and that’s what happens in HSFB all the time. It’s the quickest way to get the ball to your best playmaker.

This is the kid with a 4.5 s shuttle and 29-inch vertical, right? Could easily be a "tallest midget" situation.

Probably. But they did win on the field like they never have before and it was this kid single handedly by all accounts. Banks wants him. If he’s a special teams terror then it won’t be a scholarship wasted I guess.

I guess neither side is interested re Everhart?

He would almost commit on the spot. Cant remember wanting a kid to get an offer like this since Quandre Diggs.

I don't disagree but at the same time he is coaching the best and deepest group on the team with perhaps the best player leadership. Not sure we need to upset that apple cart.

I think hes a really good coach. He's done an especially good job with Roschon. I would just like to see us with an ace recruiter at that spot.

Everyone knows he doesn’t help in recruiting, but isn’t he a legitimate positive in helping land highly rated RB’s because they know once on campus they will receive strong coaching to prepare them for the NFL?

Has been discussed that Red has had some maturity issues... Dudes definitely a baller 100%.

Might provide some attitude, toughness, and physicality that is desperately needed on this Texas Football team.
