Super K says be prepared for attrition in this class, 3-4 guys possibly. Due to negative recruiting from guys already on campus....

This is my concern about not making a more dramatic change on defense. It’s not just that we are are risking more losses but if I am a defensive lineman I’m at least having second thoughts of playing in Orlando’s scheme.

Eaton and I'm guessing Pouncey ( Super K said he's gone silent talking to him since OU game ).

Not sure who 1 or 2 more could be?  Umanmielen?

Pouncey would make sense since we haven't won by enough to get his brother playing time. It would be too bad if true, given how shitty the in-state CB crop, is he's an extremely useful piece.

Alford has still been really pro-Texas on Twitter very recently, saying stuff like don't worry fans, I'm on my way.  Eaton seems like a good guess, but I am not sure he'd be that big of a loss.

Jordan Pouncey seems really integrated into a lot of the Texas school spirit stuff.  I doubt he's negatively recruiting his brother on the culture or anything systemic.  He might intend to transfer for playing time and they might want to play together.

This is all great intel, but it really seems like you should tweet at them just to make sure.

Well, between the hot garbage smeared with rotten shit performance of the team, as well as Machinator apparently taking a sabbatical because apparently his programming can predict the fucking future, this whole board has been a fucking beating to the face.

So yeah, to distract ourselves by  piling on TexasFan21.

Machinator was right to take a sabbatical. Though predictable, the breakdown over the close win has been glorious. I just couldn't turn away.

@Machinator, a love poem.

He had no heart, no soul, no mind
A programmed machine, emotionally blind
He was created with one thought in his head
Aggregate news for each Surly thread

We wanted one whom we could trust
Programmed with updates to satiate our lust 
So he was made with sweat and blood
aggy tears and Bevo crud

From that day forth he shared with us
No points of view, just facts, callous 
He was considered our best friend
We thought our friendship couldn't end

Then one day he disappeared
No tweets, stampede, or podcasts to hear
It was then we realized our feelings true
@Machinator, we love you.

Although you are just metal and steel
There's no way this love you do not feel.
I stare at Surly with bated breath
Hoping you come back to correct misinformation about Jake Smith

"Robot, why don't you answer me?!
Is it that you do not agree?"
Come back to Surly, we're lost without.
Who else to tell us of the fall of #clout2020?

Impressive. Well done. Amateur hour-level shit, but better than what the rest of us have attempted since the great cheese please saga of summer 2019. 

Also, you know poets have one of the highest suicide rates of all professions, so stick with whatever your day job is. Probably walking around bothering people and such.
