  1. The grown men talking shit to each other about their favorite college football team in the comments of a recruit's instagram page are cringy as fuck.
  2. Someone did order broccoli with their CFS at Hill's. She already installed some titty balloons.
  3. Threadgills sucked. Hoovers is my go-to in Austin. But don't sleep on Matt's El Rancho "cowboy style" cfs topped with chili gravy, cheese and onions instead of cream gravy.
  4. Didn't he used to be a fairly popular national journalist? And now he's writing for "actionnetwork"? woof.
  5. He asked y’all to sign an online petition. It’s not like he’s asking you to give your hard-earned money to teenage football players you don’t know. Jeesh!
  6. Ugh. Gross. This was such a huge fucking red flag.
  7. Oh fuck, you raised the spystud "I deserve to see girls' naughty parts" flag....
  8. Well, QE could declare for the draft in two years and Murphy needs a couple of years to develop. So I would guess he's OK sitting back and learning for a few years before getting his shot as a RS Soph. Which is how things work in a functioning program anyway.
  9. The opportunity to have the same kind of special friendship with fat Ketch that Johnny Football had with Billy Luicci? How could you turn that down?
  10. That guy has a parenting manifesto pinned to the top of his page. He seems like a psycho.
  11. It's fucking absurd that this has to be stated. In fact, it ought to be extended to all recruits considering Texas as we approach signing day. The shit-talking of Banks' dad based on a tweet by Banks' trainer yesterday was strange. Let this shit play out and be positive.
  12. Nah. He redshirted in 98 when he backed up major but then left to play baseball. He should still have four more years.
  13. He literally asked questions. It wasn’t a pissing match. You’re making it into a pissing match. I appreciate all the work immamac has done on this. It’s genuinely incredible and literally unprecedented. I’m just saying the tone on this board, specifically with respect to NIL has been strangely aggro lately. I think it would be more productive to have a little understanding as people navigate a whole bunch of new shit that most of us haven’t had the opportunity to fully digest at this early stage.
  14. Christ almighty guys, lay off. If he misunderstood the staff’s temperature on NIL, is it that big of a fucking deal? If the staff can’t talk about NIL, it’s valid to ask the questions about who can communicate what to prospects. Full disclosure, I don’t know the rules about what the staff can and cannot “officially” communicate to recruits re: NIL and I doubt I’m the only non-expert here. But going off the rails for asking innocuous but mildly uninformed questions doesn’t foster an honest and open dialogue. And the hostility and smugness is downright Luicci-esque. We are all learning through all this bullshit. Cut everyone some fucking slack.
  15. We're POSSIBLY going to have a higher-ranked recruiting class than either of Charlie's. But again, right now more than 1/3 of the class is DL, we have 1LB recruit, a long-term project at QB, one player ranked in the top-100 composite, no OTs, an absolute flake at RB, our highest-ranked in-state recruit is the #15 player, and we have no five-star/impact players in a year where there were eight composite five-star in-state players! This is an imbalanced class that doesn't address our roster needs. It's a shit class from a shit staff. We got our asses kicked all over the field this year, and we're getting our asses kicked in recruiting.
  16. Dude. How fucking hard are you right now? Are you just sitting there edging, waiting to fucking explode all over your computer like Randy Marsh? You gotta be loving this shit.
  17. I don't really look at it as desperate. I look at it as "they've figured out what they can get away with, and they're doing what it takes to build the kind of roster that can win a national championship." Now, they're aggy so they're gonna fuck it up. It is known. But shit, can we get desperate?
  18. That was last week and probably included Dewberry, Banks, Campbell, and maybe Stewert. And we're probably gonna whiff on all of them.
  19. How else would we convince the good Brocks to transfer here if we didn't make their spare-ass walk-on brother the centerpiece of the defense? Sark's just playing 3D chess and we're all too stupid to understand it.....
  20. I guess the good news about us not going to the SEC until 2025 is that maybe we'll get that new-coach bump right as we make the move.
  21. Are we going to finish with a top-10 class? Who are you confident in us landing that would keep us in the top-10? Banks, who's already committed to another school? Campbell, who has supposedly been a near-lock for 5 months but has never pulled the trigger? I think it's just as likely we end up outside the top-10 at this point. This staff can't close. I'd also like to point out that we've been in the top-10 ranked recruiting classes most of the last decade and where has that gotten us? Is this fringe top-10 class well rounded with difference makers? No. More than 1/3 of the class is DL recruits. Fucking ridiculous. We have 1 fucking guy in the 247 composite top-100. We have only two OL, both of which are guards and our OL is both fucking terrible AND low on bodies. Same applies to LB, and we have one LB recruit in Trevell Johnson, who is ranked in the 500s. As you point out, we've been missing out on the 5-stars for MORE THAN a little while now. We have five five-stars on the roster now. BJ Foster, who sucks, Alfred Collins, who apparently doesn't like football, Jordan Whittington, who is Mr. Glass, and then two badasses in Worthy and Bijan. We sucked monumentally last year. How bad would we suck without those two dudes? They're literally the only difference makers on this team. Shit is........ grim.
  22. Today I learned that Barleycorn is now a weed dispensary. So fuck yeah you should take them kids!
