I'll take it. I've been called a lot worse and it's not the first time I've been called that.

Someone calling you a sociopath and derailing a recruiting thread with a debate about ethical dilemma of strategic bombing campaigns, over final episode of Game of Thrones.

Not sure if its been reported but looks like we have a analyst from UD. He played QB for Kyle Flood at Rutgers.

I am pretty sure it is now an institutionalized policy that we employee as many failed Rutgers coaches as possible.

I've heard good things about him from folks that are involved with recruiting. @golfclap and @maninblack both have been singing his praises on the recruiting board. Maybe they'll chime in.

Thanks!!! 🤘

Just starting to catch up.  Been away helping family/friends during crazy ice storm!!

I'll check out recruiting board.

Be fair, the world was a better place when we had freshly minted fantasies of Cersei, Sansa, and Roz... and, I'll admit it, Brienne, too.

Biggest offseason question for each college football team in the Way-Too-Early Top 25

ESPN STAFF        Feb 18, 2021

21. Texas Longhorns: Growing pains for Steve Sarkisian?

The Longhorns have talent. And Steve Sarkisian has proved his mettle as a playcaller. But coaching changes aren't always an instant success. Just ask Sarkisian's former mentor, Nick Saban, who lost to Louisiana-Monroe in his first season at Alabama. Mack Brown went 8-5 in his final season, and Charlie Strong went 6-7 the next year in Austin. Strong went 5-7 his last season and Tom Herman followed with a 7-6 season. After a 7-3 season last year, can Sarkisian break in a new quarterback and hit the gas? -- Wilson

Source: Billy Glasscock joining Sarkisian's staff as director of player personnel

By FUCK CHIP BROWN  Feb 19, 2021

Texas coach Steve Sarkisian has a new director of player personnel.  Billy Glasscock, a former coach who has served in player personnel roles at North Carolina State and Minnesota, has accepted the job of director of player personnel at Texas, a source close to the situation confirmed to Horns247 on Friday. Bruce Feldman of The Athletic was first to report.  Horns247 insider Mike Roach reported on Feb. 13 that Glasscock had become a leading candidate for the job after Sarkisian's initial focus on South Carolina's Drew Hughes became complicated by NCAA allegations of recruiting violations at Tennessee while Hughes was employed by the Vols.

Glasscock has been at North Carolina State since 2017 and helped the Wolfpack land in the Top 45 of recruiting classes every year with two Top-30 finishes. Before arriving in Raleigh, Glasscock served as Director of Recruiting Operations at Minnesota. Prior to Minnesota, Glasscock worked at Northern Illinois, Arizona Western and Joliet Junior College.

Steve Wiltfong, director of recruiting for 247Sports, reported on Feb. 14 that Glasscock would be a "terrific hire" for Texas.  Wiltfong said Glasscock is at the top of his profession, including the likes of Ohio State’s Mark Pantoni, Clemson’s Jordan Sorrells, Oklahoma's Drew Hill and Texas A&M’s Marshall Malchow because Glasscock is a strong evaluator of talent, is an excellent recruiter and is exceptionally organized.  "Texas needs to hire Billy and not think twice about it ever again," one of Glasscock's peers in the industry told 247Sports.

Entering his 20th year in college football, the first nine spent as a coach, Glasscock is the son of a roofer and carries his father's blue-collar mentality, according to thosse who've worked with him. 

At NC State and Minnesota, Glasscock helped grow each of those respective recruiting departments and was also part of some of those program’s more successful seasons on the field in school history.  Glasscock was instrumental in identifying under-recruited talents that evolved into NFL Draft picks like safety Antoine Winfield (second-round pick and starter in the Super Bowl), tight end Maxx Williams (2nd round) running back David Cobb (fifth round), linebacker Damien Wilson (fourth round), cornerback Eric Murray (fourth round), cornerback Jalen Myrick (seventh round), receiver Tyler Johnson (fifth round), linebacker Kamal Martin (fifth round), safety Cedric Thompson (fifth round) and linebacker Blake Cashman (fifth round). The thing those guys had in common was Minnesota was the only Power Five offer for each and Cashman actually started out as a walk-on.

Glasscock helped court touted prospects as well, edge rusher Carter Coughlin and running back Jeff Jones at Minnesota with Peyton Wilson, Ricky Person, Donovan Knight, CJ Clark, Savion Jackson, Aaron McLaughlin, Josh Harris and Porter Rooks some of the four-star guys that came to NC State. These are some of the highest-ranked players the Gophers and the Wolfpack have recruited in the 247Sports Composite era.

Wiltfong said Glasscock will help Sarkisian and the Texas staff make sure the infrastructure is organized and that the program is always watching, evaluating and targeting the right guys while also being comfortable when recruiting goes national (as it did last weekend when 247Sports Composite five-star quarterback Maalik Murphy gave his verbal to Texas).
