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

Marion is just going to load up a chopper full of LOIs with return envelopes attached and take whichever of the first 3-4 come in each year and call it a day. 

If he is sending them to the right dudes only, and gets a few in the boat every year, that's successful.  

There are dudes who go to the bar and always leave with at least a 6, and there are dudes who sometimes leave with a 10 or a zero, or an occasional 2 when desperate.

To any of you still in this game, never leave with a 2...  You can call a 2 on a drunk night, but you can't leave the spot with one.

Having said that... 

I hope he's taking it more seriously than that... Although, part of me gets it. Give me the top dudes who want to be here and let's get on with it.

The Wire = Mad Men > The Sopranos >>> Breaking Bad

I watched 3 or 4 seasons of Breaking Bad waiting for the shit to get great...

And one if my coworkers was all, "But did you see the uncle ring the bell?!?!?"

I need to rewatch Sopranos... I was too busy and didn't have HBO when it was airing, so I couldn't catch it consistently. Crazy show when you jump around... But in a good way...  Ducks, then Uncle Junior, then Meadow and Christopher fucking up...

 

F recruiting.

You’ve had two all-time horrible takes in less than 48 hours. It’s genuinely impressive

I'm on season 4. 4 fucking seasons waiting for it to be anything other than miserable unlikeable people doing miserable unlikable things to each other with really annoying color filters on the camera. I wish I'd never committed to watching it, but at least I'm almost done.

The Wire, The Sopranos, those shows have characters you can actually get attached to.

Yea I mean half the plot is Whites development and how unlikeable he becomes. If you don’t get attached to Jesse idk what to tell you.

Listen, I don't mind, I guess, if Kate Beckinsale starts taking a backseat in the recruiting threads to someone younger. That said, let's at least find a Texan or an American, preferably one that doesn't have a history in porn, without that trashed out massive tattoo. This broad is a plastic Russian mob pass around that's been railed more times than Amtrak. I could see OU's board adopting her, but she's a weak fit here. If we've got to go with porn chicks, there are still some hot ones from Texas that would work better.

I’m not sure there is a right answer to which is better between Deadwood, The Wire and The Sopranos. I think the right answer is, all of the above. That’s the holy trinity of television content.

back to recruiting 

With the money being thrown at mathews by aggy and florida, I assume this will close the book on him to Texas?

If PK and company insist on playing safeties so deep, I don't see how ltg helps us. He doesn't cover a ton of ground, quickly for a safety.

Maybe if we deployed a safety closer to the line of scrimmage..

Best show ever. Not sure I would call it a movie, you loopy cunt.
As much as I hate how this thread devolves into Westerns, chicken fried steak, and cat facts, and maybe my sarcasm meter is broken right now but there is literally a Deadwood movie, you loopy cunt lol

Season 2 of the Wire happened.

Season 2 was good, season 5 was the weakest. It’s still better than Deadwood though.

The journalist subplot was the worst of the series, it’s the only part of the show I dislike rewatching.

I rewatched both The Wire and the Sopranos back when the pandemic first started. Both are all time greats, but I thought the Wire aged A LOT better.

I loved Breaking Bad, but if I’m recalling correctly, I think the first season got caught up in the writers strike, and as a result, it’s shorter and not that great. I was all in by season 2 though.

Took me several seasons to get into it also, but by the end, I was addicted. It just got crazier and crazier.

Breaking Bad is PrEsTiGe Tv for knuckle dragging troglodytes. Throw on your Oakleys and fire up another episode.

Long live The Wire, Sopranos, and Mad Men, the pinnacle triumvirate.

This literally could be said about coked out finance bros who watch mad men with some Buffalo trace and jack off pretending they’re Draper. I like both though.
