I have a friend who was dating Simms during that whole thing.  She’s French and doesn’t give a shit about football, so she was totally ignorant and unprepared for what unfolded. Listening to her descr

Guessing they've got another QB planning on portaling in addition to Weigman.  My guess would be O'Neill. He's not a fit for Klein system and too good a pro style passer to want to stick around after seeing Weigman's treatment.

Tulsa just fired their head coach a week ago (Kevin Wilson) and one day later this guy pops up as some sort of diamond in the rough on Texags.  This is a glorified PWO recruitment because they desperately need bodies in the qb room.

Right. He's trying very hard, and in a way that clearly works on the MarkStancos of the world, to say that this person in a small sample size has elite QB traits, while working real hard to not address that for some reason he isn't rated as an elite QB. 

"He had some of the best senior tape among QBs in Texas." Of course, among quarterbacks. Not top quarterbacks. Just quarterbacks in Texas. Hmmmm.
Lots of sophistry at work in that tweet. 

Is he all-district tho?

Is he a member of Dude Perfect?

Braun a little over the top again... I'd love to see the tape he's seen as his senior year was his worst year.  He will fit Kleins offense though as a running QB who can throw after being chased... sometimes.  He'll move over to RB soon enough.

That dude is straight out of aggy central casting

Much like East Texas Box Face, there is definitely a Texas Aggie Douche Face, and it always includes a backwards hat and a recommendation to watch the tape!

Ah, the ole arbitrary number demarcation line for an Aggie. What a shock. What are the other two you ask? Well, an Edge and an ATH, although a LB will shoot up there when he signs. The 10th? Oh, another Edge. The 11th? a DT. 

They're sitting really good with their 4th highest ranked player being DJ Sanders on the line though. Love it.

Is it wrong that I want us to land Fasusi & Terry just to fuel the melt further?

Hahahaha. I think it's hilarious that they think they even have that kind of juice. I'm sure there's an email from the SEC waiting to be unearthed somewhere where they admit that getting UT in the SEC was the long-term goal all along. Because they'd be idiots to not have that as their long-term goal. The aggies were just the bait.

Elko is 14-10 in the ACC and SEC. 

So many people tried to hype Elko's tenure at Duke and to no surprise Manny Diaz had a similar season in year 1. The ACC is fucking ass and going 5-3 at Duke is not some insane accomplishment. 

Cutcliffe let the program rot for so long as he retired while still cashing paychecks, I'll give Elko credit for doing a lot of behind the scenes work with boosters/admin/etc to get the program back to above-averageness. Duke fans appreciate that even as they despise the two-faced way he left in the middle of the night.

But there's a lot of B/B+ guys who work hard in the world - does he have that extra edge the great leaders have? Doubt it.

The best part of this is that they really believe that they ever held this sort of leverage.

It's baffling that they still talk about that.  It's like they envision some kind of "it's us or the sips" ultimatum would turn out their way.

Despite lower-ranked class, Elko completely boxes out Longhorns in important area

Pending one big announcement, Texas A&M football cleaned up in one area where the Longhorns' class is lacking.

By Graham Harmon | 9:33 AM EST

Texas A&M football just signed quite the impressive class for Mike Elko's first year at the helm. Though things didn't end up going the way that Aggie fans wanted down the stretch of the year, the talent that is coming in via the high school ranks is considerable, with plenty of instant impact players to go around.

Late in the game, the Aggies added two five-stars at premium positions: highly-regarded wideout Jerome Myles and elite tackle prospect Lamont Rogers. Those are two players who will no doubt make a huge impact on this roster going forward.

The strength of this class, though, is in the trenches. That's where you win games in the SEC, as we've seen for years now, and so it's imperative to bring in top prospects at those positions. Mike Elko did so—at the expense of an in-state rival.

Texas A&M football helped shut out the Texas Longhorns on elite line prospects in-state

The most obvious evidence of this is from the three elite offensive tackle prospects from DFW. Ty Haywood, Michael Fasusi, and Lamont Rogers are all five-star tackles; the Aggies got Rogers, while Fasusi—despite a huge push from the Longhorns—ended up with OU. Haywood still has yet to sign, but is down to Alabama or Michigan.

Then, you have what happened with the defensive tackle talent in state. DJ Sanders, out of Bellville, was a guy that Longhorn insiders believed they were getting right up until his commitment, and then they believed once more that they were flipping him right up until he signed.

Of course, neither of these things materialized, and he inked with the Aggies. A similar story happened with another of the Ags' top DT prospects in Chace Sims, who Texas kept trying to get on campus during the fall. The Aggies weathered the storm there as well.

And we can't forget about Landon Rink. The uber-productive DT out of Houston is a Longhorn legacy, coached by his father Shane Rink—but he will wear the Maroon and White in college.

Now, Texas didn't go o-fer. They brought in DE Lance Jackson, who the Aggies never pursued, but is highly-rated by at least one service. They're waiting on the announcement of another five-star in DL Justus Terry, but it's not likely they'll get a five-star DL out of Georgia when the Bulldogs are in the mix.

The Longhorns brought in plenty of talent at DB and WR, that's true. But we saw in the Tom Herman era how overloading classes at those spots will end up for your program. You need to have the proper amount of talent on the lines of scrimmage—and in that respect, the Longhorns should be worried.
