These guys are correct. 

You're conflating Lamb with Charleston Rambo, who was a character risk who's father had to apologize to coaches for his bullshit and was an overranked talent. They both ended up at OU. Rambo washed out and is now with Miami. 

Expand  

I know Rambo personally from his time at Dallas Woodrow Wilson(pre-Cedar Hill) and this is untrue. Rambo did not have a dad at home and was raised by a single mother, very high character and humble kid. You are scum for spreading character misinformation about a kid in exchange for a couple of likes. Thats low.

Well, you're going to get a kick out of this, but whichever IT mod was in charge of writing that blurb fucked up. The dad has a masters from Samford, not Stanford.

To make matters even more intriguing, apparently Samford's original name upon founding was Howard. Not to be confused with Harvard.  Nor with the separate university called Howard, which is in D.C.

Everyones favorite trainer, Margin Hooks was the closest thing to a father figure for Rambo, he was OC at Woodrow at the time.

Lighten up, Francis. The mistake was corrected like 3 posts below the one you quoted. Unless of course you also know Henderson personally and would be equally as insulted by SydneyCarton sullying his good name. In which case, continue on your crusade, good sir!

That was Arjei Henderson, right?  I know Arjei Henderson's dad RJ (Team Texas Elite) had to come apologize for his son at like 6 different schools after he and his bro Wease came to town. Arjei has gone from Blinn to Jacksonville State after Florida released him from his NLI because he didn't have the grades/classes complete.

i mean, no they absolutely are not.

Marcel Brooks was a huge character issue guy. It says everything when you are a 5*, #32 in composite (#17 overall for 247) and don't even take a visit to Texas, A&M or OU because you are such a character risk that nobody outside of LSU wants to touch you with a ten foot pole.

Lagaryonn Carson, Damion Miller and Devonaire Clarington were grade risk guys.

Texas recruited Carson, Miller and Clarington, and other grade risk guys.

Texas did not recruit Brooks and a pretty not small number of other dudes who were "character risks"

We should have pushed for Lamb more, obviously.

I have no interest in going after dudes who are pieces of shit. Grade risks != Character risks.

Thank you, sir. Finally, for fuck’s sake, someone here is willing to call @SydneyCarton out for his behavior, low moral fiber, and general inappropriateness on this forum. The rest of us have been kowtowed and run over repeatedly by this dark, nefarious force. At last, a hero rises and I hope you vanquish this motherfucker once and for all. He’s been running this board like Johnny Tyler running a pharaoh table and we need someone to stand for all of us.

I agree completely. I'm just mentioning the other side which is if he opens up his recruitment that it could hurt him. If I was in his position, I think I would refrain unless I was pretty sure that I wanted to go somewhere else. At the very least, I would wait to see how things shape up with regard to potential playing time at Texas.

Like, say, maybe take visits to other schools while still being committed to Texas? You should probably DM him your idea. Not sure he’s thought of it yet.

Jaylon doesn't need to tread lightly, Joseph needs to handle his business.

TCU has been on Guilbeau the entire time and if Joseph can't fend off TCU for Guilbeau what exactly do you think he's going to do when it comes to Harris being personally recruited by Saban? Texas is not a position to throw away a top 150 player and certainly not one that could fill several spots in the defensive backfield. Esp after losing out on a layup in Hullaby heading to Oregon. Joseph hasn't made any other contingency plans/relationships at CB (ie. Humphrey, Evans, Peoples, or Chambers). So while your list of Harris, Brooks, and Anderson would be good imagine for a moment that you lose Guilbeau to TCU and Harris goes to Alabama - then where are you?

What is Sark's philosophy on this, no big deal or if you are taking visits then you are not committed and there may not be a spot for you later on?

How much do you blame that outcome on Joseph prioritizing Roney Elam and the like, versus Joseph getting to pick leftovers while at A&M?

I think he took Elam pretty early if my memory isn't too faulty. It's not like he took him because there wasn't any talent left on the table and it was January and he needed numbers. That was the class with Kyler and Daylon so there was plenty of momentum to capitalize on. I feel like he often targets these long/tall guys that can't turn and go and then they have to position switch players to meet numbers at either CB or S. (Williams for you guys, UNC, and ND all had that happen under him). 

The thing is Joseph is a good recruiter. He's a really nice guy and connects well with recruits and their families. I'm not a fan of his evals or his dated coaching style, but he can recruit, connect, and close. So I think he simply did prioritize the wrong guys like Pryor, Dunning, and Elam in that one class. Notably he pursued Pryor and Dunning over DeShon Elliot (as well as Houghton, PJ Locke, McKinney). Pryor and Dunning both turned around like a tractor trailers and both were going to need to spin down at the next level. You can't take both of those kind of guys in the same class or you cripple the room - which of course is what happened. The next year they took the same basic player in Okeke - who predictably moved to LB almost immediately. I liked Oliver a lot but Fuller was another guy who didn't profile at CB (couldn't turn and go) and his career bore that out. Watts was a McKinney recruit as was Harvey but Wilson was an excellent job by Joseph. Thats' a pretty rough rolling 3 year group. 

His one year at UNC they only took two DBs - a 6'3" DB Caleb Rozar who can't turn around, they tried him at CB and he's now at Pearl River CC. The other, Tre Shaw, entered the portal after not cracking the 2-deep. UNC had to take 4 portal DBs on top of their high school recruits to try and replenish the room before Dre Bly's recruiting kicked in.

99% sure Texas passed on Hullaby because they had a silent from Jacoby Matthews. Now, we know how that ended up working out but they had a reason for passing at the time. They didn’t let him slip away.

This is not correct. They wanted Hullaby. He wanted to forge his own path.
