Gunna tell myself Banks is going to Colorado State or some shit so I won't be pissed off Sunday.

If you're going to be a pessimistic dick, you might as well actually post what he said.

[Gut Wagon 8052]

Stay calm. If Jamarion Miller were to commit today instead of a few days back, this whole place would still think we're getting our picks and others are only getting scraps.

[Chuckie Finster 22583]

Fong says A&M or Oregon.

Who has a worse pulse on this class? Our 9.95ers or our coaches?

Perroni and Fong having the same source (hi Elko) checks out. The IT vs 247 source-off continues.

[Creasy Bear 665]

Are we entering an era where Texas can't recruit but is able to coach them up?  Why can't we have both?

Dude we imploded down the stretch. Either that or we have been strung along like sheep. I feel hoodwinked, led astray, bamboozled, run a muck and flat out deceived!!!

***************************************************************************************

Humble (Texas) Summer Creek five-star offensive tackle Kelvin Banks tells 247Sports he will announce his college decision on July 4.

I’m keeping an eye on Oregon and Texas A&M. The Aggies have been a front runner the whole cycle and the Ducks have been charging hard.

Both programs have 247Sports Top10 classes with Texas A&M at No. 7 and Oregon at No. 9. Banks is the 247Sports Composite’s No. 2 offensive tackle.

LSU, Texas and Oklahoma State also got June officials but the Aggies and Ducks appear to be battling this one out with less than 48 hours to go.

[MichaelDicksonFanClub 2861]

I’ll keep telling myself that Sark and Flood took offense to the “can’t close” comments and want to make a statement. 😔

[BornAndRaised 12223]

Oregon? Again? that would be 3 tackles in as many days. Has Oregon really been in the conversation here at all? hasn't it been a texas vs aggie fight the whole way?

Lol, my friend ... 

 

 

[BornAndRaised 12223]

Higdon, is that you?

[Pato del Muerto 52322]

Wasn’t it @closetojumping that a couple days ago said our OL was pretty much set and would be committing sooner rather than later?  While also getting off on his OP title changing ability?

- In general, I doubt that Elko would care enough to leak anything to Perroni

- In this instance, he has long maintained that he has a close contact.  IIRC, someone in his family is on the school team or on the coaching staff.

 

[closetohumping 17380]

Other than from IT, has there been any indication that we lead for Banks.

He’s a long shot but I trust our staff to close

I'd say Fong = Perroni in this instance with both being 247 guys sharing info

[futureman 22411]

we should have hired Cristobal

Roach and Harris both have their CB picks on Texas.

Yeah, particularly based on recent experience, what could go wrong?

put that coffee down. 

[Darth Tron 1118]

At this juncture, I am mentally prepared to miss on everyone we want during the summer, go balls to the wall during the season, and end up either flipping them back or getting newer, better recruits when it’s all said and done.

That or crash spectacularly and require a liver transplant.

Yes. He also said he wouldn’t be surprised if Flood messes up the Banks recruitment yesterday.

Aren’t those predictions from two weeks ago?

[Enchubben 5509]

My gut tells me he is probably committing to aggy, but sure would be fun for Perroni and the Fong to be that far off.

I mean I read it more as bemoaning and general downtalking of the staff seeing as we expected Williams to commit. Not necessarily regarding any additional information

Reality is you may flip 1 or 2 but you aint flipping 5-6-7 guys.

[Gut Wagon 8052]

I'd like to go on record as stating I want our staff to "coach up" whoever's on the team, regardless of talent.

That said, I'd prefer that whoever's on the team be the most talented guys in the land.

Correct, I was just answering the question whether anyone other than IT ever had us in the drivers seat for Banks.

[tokamak 6350]

I haven't felt great about Banks for a while now. Usually when we're told over and over again for months that a guy is basically a done deal, but he never actually pulls the trigger, it ends up poorly. Big concerns about Campbell for the same reason.

With their schedule and the state of the SEC, A&M is setup to have a really good season. Those two backs they have are going to make that oline look better than they are. The time to strike was now during Sark's honeymoon period and hope the recruits remain loyal.

I mean, that’s completely different from Fong and Pepperoni

[BornAndRaised 12223]

So Perroni thinks its TAMU vs Oregon

IT think its Texas vs TAMU

Oregon thinks its Oregon vs Texas

Those were just 3 stars. We weren’t going hard for them. We were going hard for the 5stars. So basically we knew we were getting banks. The other guys where bread for the d line to beat on.

It speaks the the few days we've had where this is actually slightly positive compared to most updates we've gotten.

[Not a Sock 2308]

Sounds like we have a source off

IT think its Texas vs TAMU
