This is a fair assessment. Our talent was so thin that dude was a day1 starter because he was a legit talent, and not a JAG or a 4* we were trying to convince ourselves was a 5* in sheeps clothing. I will say that at the time, I was entirely, totally convinced that he was the keystone recruit to fully unlock our return to greatness. Alas.

Are we talking about 'as freshmen', or just at any point in their careers at UT? Because Ricky needed some seasoning. He was damn good as a freshman, no doubt, but he wasn't Ricky Fucking Williams until his Jr. year. Jeffcoat and Hicks showed up D1-starter ready, and just got better. Malik Jefferson, too. Orakpo's final year here was something else, along with many years in the league.

Cory Redding showed up on campus as a fully-grown man, and played like it too.

I'm not 100% sure of your angle with this question, but I see tons of parallels between Strong and Herman. The biggest one being Teddy Bridgewater making it look like Charlie could coach. -
Now there is chinese-made Fetanyl, being routed through Canada, destined for Texas? I can't keep up.

Take heart, because even if you've showed them 100 times how to load the dishwasher, they'll still claim to not know how to do something. Or, on a different given day when you try and have them arrange things slightly differently, you'll get "DAD, I know what I'm doing," or my other favorite, "NO, mom told us to do it this way."

Sophomore year in college, walked into a buddy's dorm room and asked "hey, where's your tiny-ass roommate?" To which my buddy replies, "right there, sitting on his bed." I think I managed to apologize through the red haze on my face, but I'm not sure.

He was 100% concussed. If you watch the ball on the slo-mo replay of the hit, it comes out as if he dropped it, and it comes out just before he hits the ground, without being hit by the defender at all. It comes out because Arch's hand went limp, and Arch's hand went limp because he got knocked out.

So we all agree to just never fly into Reagan again, right? -
Man, this topic just makes me sad. I have tons of empathy for both Gray and Brown. I think they played for 3 different OCs in three years? Brown got recruited over with Gray's signing, but then Mack/Davis absolutely refuse to establish a clear RB1. How was either one of them supposed to excel with all that turmoil? Then you throw in the achillieses, and it's just a sad outcome all the way around. And the inexplicable number of carries for Joe Bergeron during the same timeframe?!?!? Add me to the list for Fowler and McCullough and Eagles and Neyor and JakeSmith. Simms doesn't belong anywhere on this list, FOH with that noise.

You mean that you think they'll get paid via appropriated money, managed by the same folks that just unilaterally stopped all outgoing money from all departments by usurping the Treasury? They're literally actively not paying people RIGHT NOW, previous commitments be damned. Right in front of our faces, without process of any kind, really. You think THOSE people will somehow honor a commitment drawn from thin air, not even passed by Congress, eight fucking months from now? You are not serious people. There's no debate to be had here about the 'merits' of anything because nothing is being done on merit. It's being done out of spite, or ignorance. Likely both, with a healthy dose of narcissism and outright malice.
