  1. Jamel Johnson was very much the forgotten guy of the class. I’m not too beat up about it, but we do only have 2 DBs committed now and they’re both going to be battles to keep until NSD. Is McDonald still expected to bulk up and become a LB? Or is he going to stick at safety? If he stays at safety he’s probably an upgrade.
  2. Did a switch flip, or did the coaches just actually start putting him in a position to succeed? The ineffectiveness of the DTs a year ago was far more of a PK issue than a Coburn/Ojomo/Sweat one.
  3. Back in September, Toviano chose to go to the LSU-Southern game for a visit instead of the Texas-Bama game that was the same day. The writings been on the wall for a while now.
  4. Defense obviously has issues, but at least they made the plays when it mattered in the 4th quarter. This second half offense is ridiculously pathetic.
  5. As soon as they get down by any amount, Jimbo panics and abandons the run.
  6. Big time pickup. One down, three to go. Early signing period begins in 4 days, so a lot of decisions should be coming out. Stojakovic’s mom didn’t come to the visit to Texas but went to the Stanford visit, so that could be a tough one.
  7. Notre Dame is about to flip a WR from Tech. The kid got an offer from ND 2 days ago, decommitted from Tech today, and is visiting ND tomorrow, so I wonder if that's because of Greathouse.
  8. That’s not much of a positive if you’re the coach. “You should come coach here, we can make coaches go away!”
  9. Auburn’s boosters are the worst to deal with in the country, if I’m a coach with options, you’d have to money whip me Jimbo Fisher style to get me to go there. And I’d also need to be near the tail end of my career, because my future prospects will probably be shit after inevitably getting run through and spit out of the Auburn machine. Even the guy who won that modern national championship got spit out two years later and he hasn’t been a head coach since. Lane Kiffin is an unprofessional asshat whose mouth is bigger than his accomplishments. . Many of the top schools won’t even consider hiring him. People above are mentioning Alabama and Clemson, no way in hell. And Ole Miss has only beaten two teams with a winning record this year and one of them is Troy.
  10. You guys are overrating both the Auburn job and Lane Kiffin.
  11. Ron Holland was at this exhibition and Arkansas is one of his 3 finalists (with us and UCLA) . So, pretty good result.
  12. AISD is trying to keep its schools together in athletic districts no matter what. The result is they’ve created completely non-competitive districts.
  13. Regarding the refs, if the administration can’t figure out how to get out of the Big 12 before 2025, then it’s going to be a long long couple of years. This ain’t a surprise. But despite the screwjob, there we’re still plenty of opportunities to take this game. Sark shit himself in second half again.
  14. He actually ID'ed Moore pretty early and got him committed. Moore just ultimately chose to stay close to home (plus Jeff Brohm was an alumn of his HS, so he had an in), I blame Herman less on this one than I do the others. He's not going to be a TE. It looked like maybe that was the case a year or two ago, but the way he has developed, he's gonna be a big WR and that's fine. There are plenty of good big possession WRs in college football. The way this board reacts to those types has become silly. Just because Herman sucked at recruiting that type, doesn't mean they all suck.
  15. New Mexico actually fired Warehime last week. https://www.abqjournal.com/2539059/unm-offensive-coordinator-derek-warehime-fired-heath-ridenour-is-interim-oc.html
  16. Didn’t play well, 3rd down and 4th down defense is still shit, but after the last decade I’m not gonna bitch too much after a W. This team has to learn to just win first, style points can come later.
  17. We have very different definitions for doom posting.
  18. Nobody is handwringing, you’re just being weirdly defensive. This is a pretty chill thread, especially since Beard took over.
  19. My post said one of the top targets not the top target. Relax. That percentage list only had six players on it, and Gerry himself posted later that we were no longer pursuing Yates. So that brings it down to 5 guys. All of them would qualify as one of our top targets in a class where we’re expected to take 3 or 4.
  20. Don’t put any faith in South Carolina or Arkansas against aggy. They both almost always find a way to lose that game. Combined 1 win among the two since aggy joined the SEC. Expect nothing and be pleasantly surprised if it actually happens.
