    The evolution of this thread has taken its normal form for Surly:

    1) we have no knowledge or relevant conversation about where Mullet will go

    2) a sensible debate about the quality of pussy between Lubbock and Austin

    3) overrated, overrated, HS school drugs

    4) Garrett Gilbert

    5) an idiotic debate about the quality of life between Columbus and Austin

    I'm admittedly not up on private jet travel -- only been on two in my life -- but I didn't think DFW handled any private jets. I know the rich Dallas-ites who travel private all go in and out of the terminals on the east side of Love Field. I'm not sure what rich Ft Worth-ians do. I assume they don't use anything over in Dallas because you know, "life's too short to live in Dallas" and all that shit.

    I've never been on a PJ in my life but have extensive experience sleuthing them. DFW definitely handles private jets, though there's not a lot of that kind of traffic compared to other strips. From what I've seen, people flying private tend to set their plane's homebase at whatever airport is closest to their home, and, similarly, on trips they fly into whatever airport is close to their destination / reason for travel. All comes down to convenience.

    For this particular plane, the owner's home base is in Lubbock and the plane has only made a handful of trips to DFW all year (this is the first since early October), so the only thing I read into Love Field being the current destination (and previous departure) point is that whatever business at hand is somewhere closer to the Dallas side of the metroplex than Fort-Worth side.

    Him naming the 3 Texas schools is likely because he found Columbus underwhelming and decided the state of Texas is where he wants to play.  I would say Texas is in the lead, but aggy is a very close second.  But I believe Sark feels him in.

    Alliance, Meacham, or even Denton are more convenient to SLC than Love

    Agreed, would add DFW as it's the closest to SL. This plane definitely left from Love though. So take FWIW, and can certainly dismiss based on that, though we're only talking a matter of ~20 mins between DFW and Love. And this has been only plane I've seen with this sort of LBK --> Dallas round trips in that last couple days that I could tie to Tech.

    Derpy and flightware wizardry.. .we have reached peak off-season and it is early December. God have mercy on our souls..

    I'm like Michael Buble and Mariah Carey, hibernate for 11 months of the year and emerge to see whether there are offseason shenanigans to jump into.

  5. For the four degenerates interested in tracking plane movements for a single recruit, have an update.

    Plane owned by Tech booster Sam Middleton. Long line of Tech grads, he's on the board of their equestrian center, very aggy-esque. Stuck out to me because the plane reported incorrect travel data to Flightaware (or the FAA log that Flightaware aggregates its data from) by omitting / not reporting a flight from Dallas (Love) to Lubbock on Saturday late morning -- can only see that flight if you use a tracker that relies on non-FAA data.

    Now I'm seeing it left Lubbock this morning and will be touching down in Dallas in about 30 minutes.

    In short, could be the plane that took Ewers to TTU and is taking him home now for the TCU visit later today.

    Bobby:

    The Quinn Ewers sweepstakes may very well come down to NIL.

    But it may not, either. 

    Thanks, Bobby. Incredible stuff.

    In other news, I have a hard time seeing this dragging out more than another day or two (and hope to God that instinct is right for my own sanity / productivity this week). Clock is indeed ticking if he wants to make any NSD1 impact that's now, what, 9 days out? Might as well call it a five-day window at this point practically speaking.

    One thing is for sure, the 9.95'ers are loving this windfall and are going to milk it for all it's worth (also 9.95).

    If you're going to drive up a bid, you don't use Tech as leverage. That's like using a McDonalds cashier job offer to get more money in salary negotiations.

    To be fair, Ewers would be an get of epic proportions for Tech historically. They're desperate in this situation too. Pitting desperation vs. desperation is a good recipe in stewing up a bidding war. In that sense, to UT, the idea of Tech giving the kitchen sink + garage apartment for Ewers is more believable/leverage than if it were instead...say...Florida, USC, OU or one of many other programs cut from better cloth than TTU.

    If I was the type to read tea leaves and such.....I might draw some conclusions from the fact that our resident "insiders" haven't come anywhere near this thread in the last 24 hours.

     

    Certainly CTJ or Barbacoa would have shown up to rain on our parade if he wasn't coming to Texas....

     

    Below is what we've gotten from Barbacoa re QE in this thread.

    Speaking of OB. Guy on OB just posted Quinn is going to Tech. Said if he’s wrong he’ll donate 10k to a charity of ketch’s choice.
     

    Not on OB just had it sent to me.

  9. *Sniff* *Sniff*

    Mass hysteria? Potential program defining moment? Columbus, Ohio? Message board intel from fourth-hand anonymous sources? Conjecture and emotions overpowering reason? Jerky talk is the new BBQ talk? Futureman making definitive proclamations and generally trolling the three surly users that haven't gotten the memo to put him on ignore? 

    Yeah, I'm getting Urban to Texas vibes from this thread. Any flights to track, legal entities to dox?

  10. Looking for tickets to the game, either two or three together, in the lower bowl and preferably seats under the overhang / in the shade.

    Willing to pay electronically via Venmo, Zelle or other app of your preference. Or I can pay cash in-person - either today in the DFW area or outside the fairgrounds tomorrow morning.

    Thanks for your time. Please message me on surly and I'll be watching closely and response ASAP. 

  11. Taking a shot in the dark here in case any surly degenerates have one of the field-catered Caesar Guerini models laying around that they would be interested in selling. Also would welcome and very much appreciate any tips/suggestions for finding a used one through other means in the states, ideally TX, without getting reamed on price --  I've found there is wider availability in UK (for obvious reason) and it would often be significantly cheaper to buy from there (including shipping, dealer fees, etc.) but it's a huge headache to do -- though I'm very open to the possibility that I may not be looking in the right places.

    Anyways, cutting to the chase, models of interests are the Ellipse Curve, Ellipse Evo, Maxum, Magnus and Tempio. Looking for a 20ga, ideally with 28" barrels (though open to 30"). Willing to meet in person if located in or around one of the major TX cities. Dallas, Houston and Austin are the ones I'm in most frequently, but happy to travel outside of those. Also happy to go shipping route if seller is out-of-state or would otherwise prefer it for any reason.

    If you've read this far, appreciate your time. If you have one of these guns, please PM and sell it to me at surly gentleman's discount. Thanks.
