I’m sure this goes on but can they put the real stuff behind VIP or something and the fake rumors on the free part? Would make sense, why drum up drama for the current subscribers. Hell make a story that Ryan Williams is thinking of flipping but put it as free…don’t need no drama just for drama pshh
You're not new here. Be better than this.
9.95ers rely on impulse subscribers on high emotional/excitement days. They aren't putting bs rumors on the free side when they can post then in the VIP and get idiots to subscribe to know what the rumor says about what amazing 5 star out of nowhere is going to flip to or away from their school.
That'll be 9.95

Will ya'll chill out on Wingo. Every dang signing day 9.95ers start creating drama and excitement either to drive subscriptions or creat faux excitement. How often do these signing day breakouts actually result in a flip? They typically don't. Chill. Sark's got this....

I think not succeeding at Texas was the reality check. No shame in transferring out to get playing time at a smaller school.
Actually yeah there is....If you don't have a future in the NFL you're better off staying on scholarship and getting a degree from UT then chasing some bs pro football career by going to UNT...

If the Klein hire falls through, you can be sure that Loochie will say he knew this would happen and aggy has already gotten interest from several top NFL OCs.

Ole Miss has a somewhat unique strategy. They are efficient with their money, emphasizing building their roster from the portal and not really trying as much to compete on HS recruiting. I expect it to lose effectiveness as more schools imitate it
You mean like Riley at USC?

I love how Robinson was never even considered for head coach job, yet Lucci is on record thinking he was the hire....
I really believe Robinson got the impression it was his job...

I was told Elko had meetings scheduled with Lagway! The meetings were scheduled!
They had a gentleman's agreement to meet, but nothing in writing.

No, the whole thing stinks. Even when its a positive for the team I enjoy.
I don't entirely disagree. I think the December and spring transfer portal is too much. I also think it should be ironclad one time transfer no appeals or grad transfers or any of that garbage. One transfer portal for 2 weeks in the spring.
But I was born old and grumpy...

You somehow think Deon Burkes wasn't aware he could go to OU before he entered the portal? Or is it not ruined when its schools like Purdue losing starters? Any talented productive starter at a D1 program that enters the portal knowing where they could sign the day they enter.

Shockingly as usual the 9.95ers don't know their own damn business. IT will be hurt significantly by this.
As for Bobby and Gerry? They'll probably come out ahead. The mob loves someone with a personality. Bobby comes off as genuine and having a good time. The mob will continue to watch him and follow his show because he is entertaining and doesn't act like what he is covering such a serious endeavor....nor does he take himself too serious. Gerry is the perfect bit of seriousness and knowledge to go with Bobby. They'll be fine.... heck in the current longhorn environment they might become bigger without their association with IT.
Nailin et al will suffer.

You’re giving them far too much credit. I think that was an expectation of the hire initially. They had moved beyond Elko in the search process. They were hiring Stoops.
I believe Stoops may have intended to retain the D-staff. Then, everyone mocked aggy hiring Stoops. Everyone was laughing at aggy for hiring Stoops, their fanbase threw such a fit that either Bjork panicked OR the decision was taken away from him, so they had to turn him down after he had accepted the job.
At that point, it was such a shitshow that they had to immediately hire someone else to save face. There was no real negotiation after that. They desperately called Elko and HAD to hire within an hour or two. I don’t think he agreed to their weird retention demands. He was the desperation hire. They fucked the whole process up every way possible.
Elko was their last choice, and because they fucked up so badly with Stoops, he didn’t even acquiesce to what they wanted to do. They both ate the shit sandwich and liked it.
The perception from Lucci was the job was Robinson's. I think that us the issue. Robinson felt he had been told the job was his after the stoops debacle and then they ended up hiring elko.

I can only assume that the Surly Watch Party in New Orleans is going to be populated by a bunch of fat middle aged guys in Crocs and horrible sandals of various types. Is this the gluttony support group? NAY! It is the gathering of Surly elites.
Don't forget everyone's supermodel wife or gf.

This is correct. But now there are shoes called Natives that use a similar material and style without looking like it was dreamt up by a crackhead that work well for kids. And they don't fly off.
If as a mature teen or adult you wear crocs or heydude shoes, you need to be pushed off a cliff before reproducing.
Now you know good and dang well some idiots will be wearing these at tailgates next year
As for hey dudes....its basically just an update to the boat shoe.....I think they show dirt too easily but lots of people wear em.

I've always wondered where the whole "rough, tough, real stuff" saying spawns from with them. Is that one of their goofy yells or is it something that they wrote up in a song or story somewhere? I assume it's another absurd origin story of their weird "traditions". I remember the first time I read the lyrics to their war hymn or whatever. I thought it was made up when someone posted it on Hornfans. Nope. They're just that fucking goofy.
I have it on good authority that the rough stuff real tough is part of an old cadence they would yell during PT back when the Corp was mandatory and military service was required.

Roach has quietly probably worked himself into the 3rd or 4th best recruiting guy covering Texas. I'll give him some props for the last couple years.
