  1. Would love it to be Pettijohn, resigned that it’s Simon (I’m not blown away, would love to be proven wrong if he picks Texas) and have a dream scenario where it’s Dakorian Moore with the flip. Rewinding to the beginning of this morning’s Coffee & Football, Gerry and Bobby talked (seemingly) knowingly about some possible development with the portal, Gerry made a reference to “grad transfers” and “recruiting thru the whistle.” Not sure if a potential grad transfer would be the one needing the thru-the-whistle treatment.
  2. This can go off on a major tangent (and it literally has on this board, the merits/demerits of Eugene, Oregon & Oregon) but I went up there for a few days several years ago and found it gloomy/foggy, claustrophobic and boring. But I’m sure if you pick the right weekend weather-wise, are wined and dined and treated like a king, it could seem like a paradise. The facilities are cool as hell and I assume they make a helluva pitch. So I can see why it could be appealing. But I can also see why the day-to-day might get old.
  3. I love how at the OTF site, olds will just start a new thread to state some inspirational bullshit (check out today’s “Sark doesn’t rest on his laurels” offering). Here at Surly, Johnny Manziel could be caught fucking Hitler’s corpse and it would be buried in the same thread we’ve used for 12 years.
  4. 2023 – – Played in five games, but had no statistics. Yeah, that is pretty much the perfect descriptor of the Iowa offense.
  5. 24/7 had him around 250 coming out of high school as a defensive end (I don’t think we need those). But the 2023 Oregon roster labeled him a “Defensive Lineman” at 290. Maybe they were beefing him up to play inside, I have no idea. If he’s really up to the 290 area, perhaps worth looking into. Considering what the 2025 Texas DT/NG room will look like with Collins/Broughton/Savea/Norton all gone, it’s what, Bledsoe/Bryant/Mitchell/January/Hills and incoming freshmen? DT portal next year should be the same high dollar stakes as this year.
  6. I was thinking just that type who hopped in (obviously) elsewhere. But with a Slim Fast a couple days a week for breakfast. There was a kid from Florida who went to Marshall I saw in the portal. I can’t recall if he plays a desired position, nor do I know if he’s worth a shit/not a locker room cancer, but perhaps it’s a way to skip a year of development. Just a notion.
  7. Maybe my brain isn’t functioning optimally (too much time on Surly), but with the shit job Davis did over the years recruiting DTs and with a scholarship to play with, I can see an argument for bringing in a once highly rated younger player with the preferred size (so not a Swanson type) and upside and getting him in the system now, rather than wait to win a recruiting battle for a high school kid. This way, he’s a year or two into his growth, even if he’s not necessarily a plug and play. Of course, this is contingent upon such a player being available and amenable to a very modest NIL offer to offset culture issues. Could be looking for a unicorn…
  8. May you all have someone in your lives who loves you as much as Gerry Hamilton loves John Turntine.
  9. We’d really rather not have to deal with you people. I’m just screwin’ with ya! Here you go.
  10. There’s a conversation in the Transfer thread about the merits of titty pics and whatnot in commits’ pages, so before it’s verboten, let me break out my vintage photo of Faye Dunaway from the 60’s with one of the great camel toes known to stretch pants. Oh yeah, yay Jay’Vion!
  11. What will you and @Laxtonto do from now on? Michelangelo had marble, Van Gogh had oil impasto. Titty pics are your medium.
  12. Oh shit, @immamac is gonna need to go break up a rumble at the OTF site, or at least Bobby Burton will need to write another sternly worded post: one old pulled out his Big Book of 1950’s Insults and called ‘25 recruit Jordon Davison a “pansy” for allegedly leaving Texas out of his Top 4 due to competition concerns. Now, the other posters are calling the pansy-pointer a meanie. https://ontexasfootball.com/forums/topic/1560-jordon-davison-top-4-revealed/#comment-20165
  13. Not the same without the GIF motion, but I’ll allow it. If that’s Mrs. Grimas, then congratulations Grimas. I’m assuming Grimas Jr. spent a lot of time on the teat (suckling pig?). And if it’s just some random internet ho with giant tits, I’d like to transfer something to her portal.
  14. Geez fuck, who’s got some Jay’ vion Cole news? Any other rumblings from the portal world?
  15. Choice obviously knows what he’s doing, but I was never a big Davison fan, and I think Simon has a lot of unnecessary stuff going on with his running style… Tashard either doesn’t see what I see, doesn’t care or thinks he can coach him up. I would be good with only Stewart in the class, but it seems they like two RB classes.
  16. Right now, we’re just waiting on Hayes Fawcett to decide just how far he wants to push the chroma on the edit. He’s currently torn between “way too much” and “are you fucking kidding me?”
  17. Will you adopt a star defensive tackle… and his wisecracking, undersized little brother?
  18. Has the book been closed on the known portal departures? Is Sydir still on the Texas roster? Thank you in advance.
  19. My man, I hope you didn’t miss this classic thread… https://ontexasfootball.com/forums/topic/1523-mr-williams/#comment-19277
  20. Yeah, his career was going ok until someone had the bright idea to have him host a segment in the outdoor studio at the NFL Network complex in Los Angeles. A Santa Ana wind came up and blew him to Santa Monica.
  21. Big hitter, the Lama Zelus. Comes in with his head a bit low on some of his big hits. I thought after decades of “keep your head up” to avoid injury being drilled into these kids that you wouldn’t see much of this, but Zelus don’t give a fuck. He’s a badass.
  22. Perhaps he’s just a clean freak. My garage has gotten a bit out of hand, anyone have his number?
