    The thing about these wingnuts on the aggie boards with these rants about Texas people being viscerally evil to them, and then their fantasies of all these moments in which an arrogant UT grad or fan is shown their comeuppance from entities such as a middle manager from Baylor is that - you can actually spot most of these types.

    I've encountered them in the business world and will quite literally start actively planning on how to carve them out of whatever we're working on immediately. Nothing against them other than assuming they could go on a shooting spree or commit a felony in the name of exacting some sort of perceived revenge.

    These are the pinheads at the neighborhood block party who walk up while you're talking with friends to say "they'll let anyone move into the neighborhood, I guess, yuck yuck yuck" while they sidle into the conversation and then begin to subtly hint at racist shit or imply that we're all in on some good ol'boy shit that no one else standing there is actually interested in discussing. Your basic human hand grenades who can cause a crowd of people to rapidly and chaotically disperse just to get away from them.

    You can almost spot them without hearing them say anything. Short sleeve button up, huge adam's apple, pleated khakis, thick glasses, and inevitably mouthbreathing as they socially molest their way through life.

     

    i honestly had you figured for nicer neighborhoods.

    Was mentioned on the 2020 thread.  Beadadoobee's new EP kind of slaps and has caused me to re-evaluate last years, stuff that I heard.

     

    it's hard to tell where the 1975 production end and where she begins, but agreed - it's great.

    and apologies to many, but the war on drugs are just boring as hell. immaculately produced and played, but damn. give me a hook.

    Played against him at state 7on7 and there was literally nothing we can do against his passes. They were perfectly on the spot where only his guys could catch it, even on perfect coverage 

    you don't run into #1 / #1 arms all that often.

    Luck and Stafford are the two best I’ve seen. 
     

    Ewers is right behind those guys. 

    i want to say that smu offered stafford as a freshman after watching him throw about 5 balls in jv practice.

    Man. No one? Sucks getting old. I used to have a little clout. 

    it's fine. 

    in love with the beabadoobee ep and rostam lp this past week.

    It's the closest they get to a bluechip/national championship halo effect.

    Also he still has a national rep as a QB whisperer for some reason.

    he somehow got ej manuel and christian ponder drafted in the first round. lifetime pass.

    The most annoying thing about college football is that you can't actually enjoy a season because you've got to worry about your impending dynasty.

    it's fucking exhausting, to be honest. should happen at any moment.

    Finger wag all you like, dipshit. That’s not good enough. Because I am have handed you a code-word classified NCAA IE [intelligence estimate] right now and it’s telling you that the cheaters have started rolling into College Station like it’s a fucking bathtub drain. Or 1985, whichever analogy suits your naive temperament.

     

    pointing at your current coaching staff isn't finger wagging, it's merely suggesting we're all playing the same game here.

    i can't decide which is better fan-fic: jimbo currently pining for baton rouge, or the wonderful story about how he failed some sort of high-end austin moral standards test, followed by the hiring of tom fucking herman and steve sarkisian. 

    you're losing the plot.

    Posted some of this update on the Texas 2022 thread as well, but the rest wasn't germane to that discussion.

    ATM boosters have built Dindy's dad a church. They're going to funnel money through there the way Clemson does for recruits they're competing with everyone else for, Dindy being the starting point. 

    I realize no one wants to hear that, especially UT and OU fans, but, yeah. That's the word. And for anyone wishing to post articles or snippets about a "prayer college" and wanting to believe that shit is on the up and up, let me know on DM as well, as I've got a pretty prettaaaayyyy good franchise investment strategy to sell you regarding photo booths. BO&W has already bought in.

    Anyway, in the past few days, Fisher and company also flew Enai White and his coach/handler down in a private jet to visit. He'd not really been considering ATM. He lives in section 8 housing and so does the handler. They were shown a different world. Expect ATM to be a player here. 

    https://247sports.com/Player/Enai-White-46076687/

    I believe they brought another player with them, some DE who's also poor and an amazing ball player from that area. Can't remember his name though. I guess if that shit has been posted somewhere already, just give me the heads up, as I missed it.

    you know things are starting to get fun when this sort of post starts appearing with regularity.

    I caught up some yesterday. ATM's hiring of Nick Williams away from Georgia should signal to everyone that they're going to do what they desperately need to do in order to sign anyone who is pretty much only about the money. They're getting as brazen with their activities now as they've been at Georgia, with Williams in the middle on both fronts. Bear Alexander is a prime example here, and Williams is the connect. 

    If you see someone like Denver Harris taking a midweek visit to ATM after he's straight-up ghosted them, you know the recruits are talking and the buzz is that ATM will get you paid. 

    Staff and Jimbo are openly talking about "taking care of the family" when the parents visit his ranch while the recruits are hosted with an embarrassment of party and luxury riches. 

    Fisher has a growing concern that you can't actually win at ATM. If they buy a bunch of top 3 classes and still can't get it over the hump, he doesn't want to miss a shot in Baton Rouge. Will see how the window works out. ATM isn't kicking ass in the portal because a) they've not planned for it well and are scouting and reacting within it poorly and b) players who have been on campuses somewhere and already gotten paid aren't as gung ho to further relegate themselves into a new shithole. This is a tell to the staff at this point that it's not exactly an equitable shangri-la to recruit to compared to places like Austin, Los Angeles or football hotbeds with rabid fans that aren't also fucking weirdos. 

    That's all shit to watch.

    this is like a mad libs message board post. frankly, i expect better from you than this incredible heap of bullshit. 

    except for the transfer portal stuff. we need to get more organized there.

    This is part an expression of my skepticism, and part honest question: Who defensively has Jimbo Fisher and Elko developed and gotten drafted highly that wasn't already a highly ranked recruit coming out of HS? 
     

    this is a weird question - are they supposed to be magically getting non-talented guys they inherited drafted via their x&o wizardry?

    guessing we're about to see a handful of guys over the next few years - demani richardson, both jones, blades (if healthy, he'll test well) and i like the early returns on chappel as well.

    It began with Reggie "Real Deal" McNeal is better than VY.

    one of these days i'm going to get drunk enough on here to remind people this was a valid conversation after the 2004 season.

    things went . . different ways from there.
