Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out

[closetojumping 65214]

Watching Georgia melt down on the Dawgs247 board is absolutely delicious. The whining and bitching about money is so glorious that it's starting to give me a headache. These motherfuckers have been buying players since day 1 of Smart's arrival and now they're bitching about big bad Texas. 

Sorry about us deciding that we, too, have a payroll to meet and it's ... um ... a lot bigger than yours, you truly poor bastards.

Shit this is going to cause real problems over playing time concerns with the current DL, wonder if we should have passed. /satyanash

I feel like a lot of people have forgotten this. Georgia's plan was buy the players first, and then let Kirby prove himself. The most blatant example i can remember.

[MuellerHorn 4597]

What a difference a couple days/a week makes.

In our view, Texas' IDL class was basically trying to hold on to Charles. Mbatchou left, we thought Sharma was likely gone, and Terry was a Surly fantasy.

Now, Texas has arguably the best three.

Combine that with Lance Jackson and Smith Orogbo, and WOW, this DL class is salty as fuck. Let alone the entire defensive class.

Now this is what a Texas football recruiting class should look like:

Getting a top DT out of UGA and Auburn’s backyard when they went all-in for him is a seismic shift in the CFB landscape. Only thing bigger would be winning the SEC our first year in it. 

[utexas8 1695]

Can anyone recall a livestream by a team-specific site (e.g., "DawgNation") that didn't end with the recruit in question committing to that team?

There was this documentary once

When was the last time Texas had the number one class. I never thought it was attainable when bama and UGA always throw ridiculous money until it got legal.

Now, Texas has all three.

The difference between Tuesday morning, fretting and bedwetting about Sharma (until he signed), to this morning was a total 180

Yo, we will have Jonah Williams, lance jackson, Justus Terry, and Colin Simmons and Kobe Black on the field at the same time. Incredible.

excluding the 05 class of self starters

 

I'd always had the notion that Tim Nunez was a great recruiter who couldn't develop, and McWhorter was a great developer who couldn't recruit, and the '05 squad was the result of Nunez recruits with McWhorter's development.

Flood is both.

thanks to all who made it happen, including the Wileys if his allotment went back into the kitty, for my little endorphin hit this morning.

Here is a mod's thread. They have like 7 going at once, but this one is good:

" Benjamin WolkStaff

 

Anytime there’s some uncertainty about whether it’s going to be Georgia or not, it’s usually not Georgia. It felt like a foregone conclusion it would be Georgia for so long but it wasn’t.

Texas DL coach Chris Gilbert did a spectacular job to keep them in this.

I’m very surprised he’s leaving so far from home.

Extra juice for the game tomorrow.

Terry said he picked earlier this week but didn’t tell any coaches."

Seriously the coaches don’t matter one bit, we’ve recruited this kid since 8th grade and Texas came in 3 months ago."

 

"TigerWoods62082

Gotta question passing on Christian Ingraham, Charles House, Braxton Kyle, Floyd Boucard, Stephon Shivers, and Josiah Victor & slow playing Jeremiah McCloud now."

 

"USMCMIKE25

Boy said he wanted to be close to home.. but what matters if you got all the money to move them with you"

Times are tough for a lot of people these days and the truth of the matter is; who is turning down life changing money especially if they come from a low economical area. The median household income in Manchester, GA was $39,492 in 2021. I'm sure it has risen, but not to the tune of what they were probably offered."

 

"romegeorgiadawg

 

For all the talk about money isn’t an issue, it is. Lost out on 3 recruits Wednesday which theoretically would free up funds. It didn’t. I hate we have a Braves salary cap going up against the Dodgers."

 

"21Dawg

 

Yeah man he really chose Texas because of his relationship with the DL coach ?"

 

"CoolDHS98

That makes 2 players going to Texas that plays a position of need. Brooks was a big blow, but Terry is a kick to the face. Kirby needs to figure this NIL thing out fast, or Oregon and Texas is gonna run away with the game of recruiting."
