  1. In better news I think we can finally confirm that we dodged a character bullet: https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/4-star-florida-signee-arrested-trespassing-charges-171708605.html
  2. No doubt it won't be easy but finding out 7 months earlier is without question an advantage.
  3. DL recruiting is absolutely an issue. That said, the fact that we know this in May and not in November/December is a huge benefit. The staff can act accordingly.
  4. Kids gotta keep some suspense, manufactured or not. Time will tell.
  5. Honestly wonder if it is his mom's account to follow her son's recruitment.
  6. Might just be a separate account to be used purely for recruiting
  7. You're right about Meekins, my mistake. But for Beck why shouldn't we have higher expectations and standards? They guy can recruit but it wouldn't change the fact that we still wouldn't have a WR coach that recruits would want to play for. Another schools recruiting pitch from their WR coach: "Come play for me at ___. You've seen how I've coach up similar players and I think I can get you to the draft." Mehringer: "I know my WR choices were strange last year, that one of our best young players in the position transferred partially because he didn't like me, and that I lack experience but give us a chance, we're Texas!" Beck: "I know I was fired from OSU, ran a horrible offense two years in a row at 2 different schools, and now I've been moved to a coaching position that I have virtually no experience at but give me a chance!" Or, find someone else who can recruit and coach at the position.
  8. I think this would be a good fix but it is a little ridiculous that for a school like Texas, with all of its endless resources, that the best we can do is rearrange. Say what we want about Jimbo but he hired a true position coach that can recruit for each hire. We need and can afford a real WR coach who can both coach and recruit, ala Herb Hand replacing Warehime. Meekins to TE's is one thing but at a certain point Tom just needs to sack up and trim the fat even if he's friends with them.
  9. Mr. Bagman, buy me a dream... Make it the most unexpected recruitment that I've ever seen...
  10. "So, what do you think you'll be up to after next season?"
  11. There's a picture somewhere of Charlie Strong and Bob Stoops having run into each other outside of a recruit's home. I think it was Chris Daniels. Really feels like forever ago.
  12. I see him as a Kobe Boyce type. He isn't necessarily the top guy you're aiming for but he is a legitimate player that you'd be happy to get. And who could develop into a starter if developed right.
