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

Well I guess that is one way to prevent the pick from leaking. Had he only told one staff, the crystal balls would be rolling in effectively ruining his announcement. My expectation is it will be Bama.

I think ctj was joking.

I’m not one of those people that are saying that if we lose this week it will make or break Sarks time here but if we win this week I believe we will have enough momentum that the flood gates will start to open in recruiting. 

Avatar checks out. But I agree.

I don’t think this game means as much as we hope it does, like always. I’m more interested in when the SEC jump occurs.

Nah this game means a lot. If we win Saturday that sets up a potential top 10 matchup night game vs Oklahoma state @DKR with arch manning and others on official visits

Fuck you it doesn't. My nipples have been hard for this game since that ugly motherfucker beat us last year.

everyone who posted about it in the Korean movies thread says it’s unwatchable. but I did enjoy the first so I’ll check it out. 

The way I went into it was not comparing it to the first one because you're correct, it's inferior. But for a watch, especially in October, it's a cool movie. Check it out and let me know. I'm curious. I've seen people divided on it, so who knows. 

 

Edit: Is there a Malaysian horror sub here?

Flood gates for the 3 spots we have left?

We’re going to have to process some people at some point.

We need 3-4 more HS OL
Perkins has a spot
Harris has a spot
Evan Stewart has a spot
Skinner has a spot
Barton has a spot
Anderson has a spot
Cooks has a spot
Wiggins has a spot
Preston has a spot.

Obviously we won’t get all of them - but it’s going to get interesting.

Again, my post was my opinion. You seem to think you have it all figured out. My thinking is, Arch has more interest in what kind of OL he has in front of him. If beating OU on a down year helps OL recruiting, then yes.

Pretty sure we can get more than 25 this year because of transfer, early enrollees, etc.

This is the recruiting thread so my post was as it relates to recruiting. Recruits aren’t Longhorns, yet. This game should mean everything to fans and current players. But, I understand context is always a challenge for you.

Xfers don’t count against the 25. Maybe we can take more with early enrollees (I asked this question but nobody knows) but not 15 more.

Maybe we can get to 28-29. I don’t know.

Portal needs to deliver:
WR
QB (prob)
OL

OL
LB

Something like that.

28-29 sounds about right.

hopefully the coaches learned to sniff out the trickery after last time

Eh, it really doesn't matter right now. There's no backup plan we've been telling to hold off, he's just a phenomenal luxury take for us if he picks the good guys.

There are two current commits who will surprise me if they sign with Texas and, Winfield and Tapp.

If we get Stewart and Hudson or Preston I will be ok with losing Winfield. I think we hang on to Tapp. We need ti fill the rest of the class out with OL and a LB.

Don't be shy:

WR -  Jaxon Smith-Njigba
OL - Donovan Jackson
OL - Brockermeyer
OL - George
LB - Will Anderson
LB - Noah Sewell

Would be surprised to see Jaxon Smith leave Ohio State at this point. He is currently third on the team in receiving with 3 touchdowns. Really is sad that we couldn’t have kept him home.

Something like that.

The NCAA approved 7 additional spots, as long as they're replacing transfers.

We can actually get to 32 (or 34 if you count the kicker and long snapper as PWOs).

Maybe we could have. We didn’t try.  At least not until it was way too late.

Has anyone seen anything definitive on whether transfers from this spring/summer count towards this cycle’s spots?  I.e., will Craig Naivar’s merry band of USC misfits help pad our numbers?

Ah- I thought the +7 was for xfers only inbound, and not HS or xfers.

Thanks.

He's a soph.  The two guys ahead of him, Olave and Wilson (and they're not ahead by that much) are expected, per multiple draft boards, to go in the first 20 picks of the draft.
