    As I mentioned in the DT specific thread, short of getting Alabama quality DT’s, the staff seems to be taking large frame DE’s and re-purposing them. Probably a better strategy than taking second tier DT’s.

     

    Ok, I read your comment from the other specific thread... 

    Give me your simple opinion, are we doing great, good, plain or bad with DT recruiting? Seems to me there is some real uncertainty about the subject...

    I believe and trust in Oscar Giles like Hank S does, but we I'm not sure I can ask him directly when I need to know more than what I can read in the media... so I ask to the next best available thing, a bunch of anonymous posters in the internet

    Feel free to reply in the other specific thread

    My views on DT aren’t totally aligned with others on the recruiting board and that’s okay. 

    I’m not particularly worried about DT depth, given that I think Sweat adds to the roster there. That gives us what, 4 NT types before anything in the grad transfer arena? Fine, I guess, but we need a high hit rate on the guys taken. Wilbon can play, but he’s not a difference maker. Can anyone else be? No one has a clue but the staff likes what they have. 

    My biggest concern is that we’re creating a Todd Orlando dependent roster. If that guy leaves, for whatever reason, and the next guy wants to base out of a 4-3, we’re going to have depth issues on an otherwise deep roster. That will suck. Frankly, Orlando needs to be using way more four man fronts than he has (up to the ISU game) and even for him I do have some depth concern. 

    Regardless of how anyone here feels, I think we can all agree that we’re not landing the guys that are helping Bama and Clemson win titles right now. We’re not getting the frequency that Bama’s getting, either. People can say “no shit, but who is?”. My response is simply “That’s the bar”, not that it is reasonable, because it isn’t. So I sure as hell hope that the program is capable of creating war daddies in the trenches, particularly at NT and 4i. 

    I will be surprised if Herman doesn’t balance out the coaching staff with another DL coach this offseason. I expect that guy to be a rainmaker. No clue who leaves from the offensive side to make that happen, but I do expect turnover. Adding a DL coach who actually knows how to evaluate and also happens to thrive on recruiting would be a boon. 

    Thanks for the feedback CTJ... not sure what the deal is with asking about our DT situation, but I certainly appreciate getting a straight answer with exactly the information I was lookig for... I'm not a fan of OB, I mostly read BON and BC to keep up with Longhorns... and what you just shared in not in either site...

    And yeah, I was a big fan of BC and your articles when you were with them....

    The boiled chicken is probably really tasteful...

    The mac&cheese looks decent...

    but the other stuff looks like someone puked it out.... disgusting 😕

    I don’t really give a shit about JUCO recruit rankings, since they’re woefully under covered. Jones is a fucking player. He’s not filler. If Orlando keeps him on the edge, he’s help immediately. 

    CTJ what is your opinion on our DT recruting for 2019? We seem to be set with defensive ends, but I wonder if we re we at on DT's.

    Mouse wheel has replaced the up and down arrow keys.... left right keys can join the number lock key in the fire

    Damn, Rafa is reminding me of the insanity of being cracked out 24/7. very accurate portrayal of the paranoid psychosis it puts you in. 

    I can relate to your comment MIA... I can remember the time period some good friends were big time users and would talk about a things that only existed in their minds... but it was so real to them, it made you want to belive them...

    This is one of the most surprising things in the turnaround this year.

    Last year, I'm not saying we had a player like LJH, but if we had I feel like he would've been on the sideline for >50% of snaps. 

    I don't know what clicked this year and made us decide to let our best players play on most downs, but it has been a nice turnaround on an infuriating trend. 

    IMHO Sam Ellinger maturity and better decision making in 2018 vs 2017 is the biggest difference …

    2018 version would have given us the edge in losses against USC, OK St and TTech

    Damn, Ossai did that RT dirty. Amazing for a freshman.

     

    Big O has to be all-conference now.

    Link please :)

    And YES! Charles O is a hell of a football player and gentlemen... 

    One of many great defensive line  players from the Oscar Giles lineage

  10. Like many posters in this thread, I wish for Colt an awesome game... So many great memories from the time he was playing at UT.Still believe that UT could have beat Bama had Colt not gotten hurt in the 2010 BCS game and even that Garrett Gilbert career would have been so much better, if not for that one game

    On the other hand, I hope the Dallas Cowboys win and make the playoffs.

     

    Hookem!
