  1. Isn't Okafor pushing 30 now? May be Tope Imade I'm thinking of The top TX player in his recruiting class was Greg Little who's already on his 2nd NFL team.

    Pretty much this. Saban/Alabama absolutely hammer into their players a culture that winning is the most important thing. Case in point, Jaylen Waddle. A guy who some labeled with "character concerns" because he was on the take in his recruitment. Would be easy to assume he was only looking out for himself and his eventual NFL opportunity. When he got hurt last season it would have been reasonable to just shut it down, take his time with rehab and get ready for the draft. He didn't have to play another college snap as far as his draft position was concerned. That's not what he did though. He rushed to get back on the field and played in the title game even though he clearly wasn't healthy. He risked hurting his draft stock because the gave a shit about being on the field and winning a National Title.
  3. FWIW, I guess it’s not the worst thing in the world if OSU is an early kickoff according to Sark. He mentioned that he likes getting to spend the rest of the day with visiting recruits after the game.
  4. It’s so funny, his whole narrative about Texas joining the SEC was that with Jimbo and their head start in the league, UT was in for a rude awakening about just how far aggy football has come, we weren’t ready, ags were positioned to be the dominant Texas team in the league… Now that whole thing basically just comes down to they didn’t lose as badly to the team that both schools lost to. As always, advantage aggy.
  5. Some people talked themselves into it being because Schooler was good, but in hindsight it probably should have been a much bigger red flag when he flipped sides and immediately became a starter at safety.
  6. To be fair, they seem to be inherently understanding that beating LSU is a bigger deal than beating A&M.
  7. Spiller will come out, he may be the first rb taken next year. I know, seems crazy but it’s a kind of weaker rb class.
  8. From Looch right after King was named the starter. Phenomenal improvement! He must have been literally pissing and shitting himself before. Lol
  9. Jimbo raise coming this week for playing such a close game against an undefeated SEC West squad?
  10. Generally I agree with this but some coaches seem to figure it out with those kind of guys. Matt Rhule quickly rebuilt Baylor and leveraged that success into an NFL job by grabbing lightly recruited guys that were fast as hell. Not surprisingly, he really wanted Owens.
  11. Still can edit, but I don’t deserve it
  12. Don’t want to derail the thread, but I’m confused how they ended up with the same charges and “points”. People are pointing to the kids as the main difference in the fact pattern, but shouldn’t that have added another charge? Reckless/wonton child endangerment or something (idk shit about the criminal code)? Either way that disparity is clearly bullshit.
  13. I saw that and almost spit out my drink. Maybe the most aggy thing I’ve ever seen.
  14. “Haynes King, who was tremendous in his first start…” 🤔
  15. Oh god dammit catch the ball
  16. Anybody remember exactly what Looch said about Calzada right before their first game? It basically was some variation of him being a truly elite qb that is only not starting because King is some combination of JFF and Jesus.
  17. This is so funny but frustrating that aggy is going to pull it out anyway. Oh well, aggies are fucked this year either way if Calazada has to play against any team that doesn’t suck.
  18. Wells said he’d take Texas vs. the field for Stewart.
  19. I missed this live, but Joe Cook pointed this out in his gif breakdown. We tried to catch them with some tricky shit in the 2Q. All the skill players stood upright like they were at the play-call on the sideline. Card even gives the no-look snap signal. Didn’t work here but just another example of a smart staff putting little wrinkles in to give us an advantage.
  20. Shout out all you guys who spent the summer wringing your hands that we were fucked because our offense was clearly going to feature Kai Money.
  21. This. Thankfully Bo is a badass and not a moron so Finkley would be a really amazing icing on the cake to the class but he didn’t put all his eggs in that basket. We’re not hoping to beat out Saban for a Bama kid to save the position group. Previous staff would very likely be calling up some maxed out middling 3 stars from Texas private schools this evening.
  22. Negged for about 5 different reasons. Pretty impressive for 2 sentences (albeit one run-on).
  23. Between Stewart and Blue our offense is going to have some fresh legs for camp next year
