  1. Elko seems to have overcorrected from Jimbo's cube approach by only taking 270lb guys, though I imagine that's actually just a result of A&M not having a competitive pitch in recruiting right now.
  2. Here are Alex Dunlap's deep digs for the spring game Offense Defense I like the OL notes and the commentary on Terrance Brooks, which was written before he entered the portal.
  3. Wait, I never knew that their collective is run by/through TexAgs, but it's true. That's incredible. And the part about all the people Liucci bans not being able to contribute is hilarious.
  4. Ahh, I was not aware and that makes sense. He does have like the 5th best throw all-time at A&M so he's not a scrub, just not excelling nationally.
  5. As best I can tell, Davis entered the portal in January with a do-not-contact tag, but has never released a top schools list or anything. I'm not even sure he's taken visits. He practiced with the team during the spring but there hasn't been any news that he withdrew from the portal. PFF has him as the #4 returning corner in the country, two spots above Jabbar Muhammad.
  6. I don't pretend to know anything about shot put or discus but according to Foster's T&F bio, he threw 71'1" (21.7 meters) as a senior in high school. Gatorade player of the year and #1 prospect in the country. His best throw at A&M was 64'9" (19.7m) to make NCAA championship honorable mention in 2022. It makes sense he would stall out by trying to play both sports, but that still seems kinda brutal. At least John Burt was winning conference championships and All-American awards in track.
  7. Worth remembering that Joseph and Gideon are among the coaches whose contracts will expire in February next year (Choice and Milwee being the others).
  8. he was saying that your Red take is obvious Edit: I think. Or maybe not. Maybe there's other context
  9. Alright well I went ahead and subbed to OTF @immamac their premium posts are showing on the home page feed but not on the individual forums like football and 9.95 also if there could be a way to get back to surly from OTF that would be dope but I can see why that might be a nonstarter. Maybe a header button that only shows up for treefiddy members?
  10. To this point, yesterday I was thinking about how the current DT group could compare to recent years. Sure they won't match last year, but could they match the 2022 rotation of Coburn/Ojomo and younger Sweat/Murphy? I think so. And I think that would be perfectly adequate. ETA this is counting on someone like Bill Norton joining and being an acceptable nose.
  11. Gotcha. Wasn't sure how it worked but that's good to know.
  12. I listen on apple podcasts and the ads are insane there too, but they're uploading the audio without any ads except for their sponsored reads? I don't notice randomly interjected ads on other pods I listen to
  13. Personally, I'd be more likely to go get a premium OTF sub if the paid articles were on the feed because I'd be able to access them from here without going to a separate site
  14. In NOLA for the sugar bowl this past year I ordered an Uber and he had a pistol just sitting in the front passenger seat. Don’t know what make/model/whatever. Panicked for like a split second then just nudged it over to get in and he was like oh whoops and put it away. Normal ride otherwise and can’t say I blame the guy driving around NOLA on new years
  15. Will the premium links continue to show up in the feed on the side of the page?
  16. Sorry, I don't mean that they're being paid for the appearance. I have no inside info but from my google, Shuley started CFC and has helped with TOF in some way so he's tied in. And the guys they've brought in were Hill, Moore (Shuley talked about starting the food truck), Cook, etc. from the '23 class and now Simmons from '24 plus a number of vets that we know have had at least some kind of NIL support. So my guess is it's TOF-adjacent, not that they're being paid for their appearance itself.
  17. It's getting too late in the cycle to not have some calculator discussion This isn't meant to be a class prediction. Some of the guys were added as placeholders because I don't know where our board is but I imagine we'll land some guys in the range of their ratings. A class above 300 points is safely top 5 and usually top three. 304.17 would fall in line with Sark's other high school classes like so: 2024< 2022 < 2025 < 2023.
  18. This felt like the first 3&L interview that was just a bunch of softball PR questions for an NIL guy. I mean, I know all the players on there are getting NIL (which is a good data point), but Blue's not as polished as the other guys and there's more off-the-field stuff that just got glossed over.
  19. I wonder if we see Silas Bolden reopen his recruitment at some point
  20. I’ve been saying you can’t convince me this isn’t a 310lb nose tackle
  21. "had dialogue with" is a dead giveaway that someone is waaaay overstating their source
  22. PK ran a ton of single high at UW. I've been waiting for us to install it. When we hired him I actually thought that BJ Foster was going to kill it as the box safety (oof). I think he's just been limited by having so little reliable athleticism at DB so far. I'm hoping that the combination of corners who can be trusted more than 15 yards downfield and Derek Williams lets the defense evolve in similar way to the offense last year; that is, the coordinator can finally run their full playbook. Side note: I see people talking about Wisner being a good fit for the "Keilan role." The Keilan role isn't really a unique position. Sark is going to use a variety of motion and screen concepts for lots of his skill players. It was only limited to Keilan the first two years because X was our only good receiver, so he needed to be running down the field, and it was more important to use Bijan/Rojo as traditional RBs. Once we added Mitchell last year, X was able to eat up Keilan's snaps. Next year I'd expect Bond, Blue, Wingo and others to all be able to fill that. I hope Wisner gets some PT, but it won't because he's put into a special Keilan role position.
  23. They're both fine landing spots. Let's just not get carried away with ideas about guys buying in to a 2 QB class because of an imaginary option to transfer to a spot of their choosing. As transfers, guys are more likely to start at a place like Duke then transfer up than they are to be backups at a place like Texas and transfer laterally. Case in point: Hudson Card almost went to Notre Dame but they ultimately went with Sam Hartman.
