  1. We mostly took Tim Cole to get his teammate at Brenham, a certain Malcom Brown. Everything else was secondary.
  2. Whitehouse.com surprised a lot of parents back in the day 😁
  3. Didn't even last a week after this post... Is Harris a candidate to replace Glasscock?
  4. Eric Nahlin: What would make for a successful 2025 recruiting cycle for Texas? (Justin Wells) Texas Longhorns Recruiting Intel: Texas coaches hitting the trail
  5. Disu HAD to get that offensive rebound. He had to.
  6. We are halfway through OT and have gotten up ONE shot. Might as well jack up 3s if this is the alternative
  7. Back to wasting possessions with turnovers
  8. From the above December list, ten recruits who were five-stars last month got bumped down to four-stars. Three of them are Texas signees. Three are Ohio State. The other four are Clemson, SCar, Auburn and Notre Dame commits. It's pretty clear Charles Power is playing favourites.
  9. This was the On3 Top 32 from December. Over just the last month, Baker, Wingo and Filsaime were all pushed out apparently based on nothing more than a handful of all-star games and Ryan Williams' reclassification? Smacks of gamesmanship.
  10. Collin Ginnan: Breaking down the new additions to the final 2024 On300
  11. The reasoning, and I'm not saying that I agree with it, is that Seiko has recently been jacking up their prices without really improving their product. For a long time Seiko has been on par with Citizen in that mid-tier watch range. Recently, Seiko's management decided they wanted to move up a tier and be seen as competition for Tissot/Hamilton (chasing would-be Swiss buyers). They took the chance during the transition from the 7S26 movements (found in the old Seiko 5 SKXs, which you used to be able to get for ~$150 or so) to the 4R36 movement which added hacking/hand-winding. Now Seiko 5's go for $400 MSRP, with the same Hardlex crystal, a decreased water resistance of 100m, very cheap pressed-clasp bracelets, and a movement with +45/-35s accuracy. In other words they're heavily overpriced now. Long Island saw the chance to fill the void Seiko left behind (Orient has done this too, to an extent) and started to release their own watches. They deliberately use Seiko's designs and movements, but with sapphire crystal and 200m water resistance. They want that segment of buyers who are disgruntled with Seiko's price hikes and want similar-looking alternatives at better price points. Edit: This is a $575 watch with a Hardlex crystal. What are you doing, Seiko.
  12. Quoting this list from earlier. There were a decent number of P5 DL coaches we could have made a run at after missing out on Wright. Betting that Baker will turn out to be a better hire is a pretty big gamble. Alternatively we could have gone the separate DE/DT coaches route if the numbers allowed for it. Has his salary been announced yet? Should be interesting to see what he makes.
  13. What ever happened with Randall Joyner? Felt like his name was floating around for a little but and then vanished. Not an option?
