  1. It would really be a shame if someone put a picture of dear, dear Norman was featured in a "FREE DOG TO A GOOD HOME" post on Craigslist with KKL's info.
  2. I won't comment on the Herman/Blake B. situation aside from saying that losing Tommy really, really sucks. However, if this results in an offer to Ezra Oyetade I'll be less miserable. He looks substantially more athletic than James B. James obviously has better technique and he's still growing, so I'm sure there's upside there. But I doubt he'll ever show as much athleticism as Oyetade - he just looks really, really fluid out there when he's pulling and mauling people.
  3. If Blake is the way he seems to be, his reaction will be epic if Saban trapdoors James in a couple years to free up a spot for another 5 star.
  4. He looks exactly how I pictured Wilbur Whateley when I read the Dunwich Horror.
  5. If anything, I'd bet it makes Herman's stubborn ass more entrenched in his decision to not before because he feels like he's a Mensa genius and everyone else is stupid - just like with Casey Horny and James Brock.
  6. It must be hard to play football when you're getting chemo.
  7. Somehow, this gem from texags got missed in the whole #RacismAtTAMUFeelsLike discussion. aggy said the quiet part loud. Again.
  8. Best for last: Gee, do you all think other schools might negatively recruit them for this stuff? Maybe a few TexAgs posts on the issue tossed in there for variety?
  9. So are they going to break tradition by hating their Senior QB before the season starts instead of a couple of games in? I tried to read the TexAgs thread. I really did. Couldn't get to the second page. The amount of racism, racist dog whistling, and ignorance was just too much.
  10. Here in Austin, InfoWars just set fire to a homeless guy's stuff and tried to blame the protesters. So, I guess it's pretty much a normal day at the office them.
  11. His cutting ability is definitely impressive, but I wonder about his top end speed (like everyone else). I definitely think his hands look elite for a running back. It'd be interesting to see them motion him out now and then and maybe run some Lil'Jordan type plays with him. Obviously, he's not 6'5", but his agility makes me think he might be able to do some cool stuff in that kind of role.
  12. Not as old school as the Nyarlathotep Institute.

    Malcolm Roach

    This. Todd Orlando should be forced to compensate Roach for all of the money he likely cost him in the draft. Not first or second round, but definitely something. As it is, I hope he's able to show what he can do as a UFA.
  14. Is it Clendon Ross?
  15. He's not a great recruiter, no matter what his aggy bio says. I don't know what's on Rivals, but Hagen's not even in the top 25 on 247 for any of the years he was at aggy. I'm guessing he benefited from just being even sort of associated with the recruitment of guys like Isaiah Golden, Myles Garrett, and Daylon Mack. So, guys that were either always going there (Garrett) or guys who probably would have wound up elsewhere during most years. aggy constantly bitched about what a bad recruiter he was - this coming from the same group of morons who convinced themselves that Jim Turner was elite. He made Terry Price look great by comparison. And the lack of development of guys like Mack during Hagen's years there is not exactly ideal (Golden is obviously a different case altogether). In sum: this is a shit fucking hire.
  16. Yeah, but they couldn't even find a way to like Hagen when he was there. At just about any point, if I remember correctly. We all remember the Chief in a deer blind with his snuff boy, the fearsome Marine, and Terry Price, Ace Recruiter. There's always been a lot of insane hero worship for aggy. And all of them have basically had about as much impact on anything as a wet fart. And they were still better than Hagen. You are 100% correct:
  17. It's OK, guys. Our NSD2 woes are over cuz Herman went out and got Mark fuckin Hagen, a coach so fucking shitty even aggy couldn't mythologize him. I guess as long as Valai is paying enough that we don't really have to recruit, I'm ok with it. Otherwise, what an awful hire, especially from a recruiting perspective.
  18. I just popped in to this thread to say "holy fuck, that's an awful hire."
  19. That's a massive Vibrio outbreak just waiting to happen... Maybe it will be maroon Vibrio, though?
  20. Not saying these particular kids wind up going to Texas, but... I wonder what it's like to live in a world where Brandon Jones, Joseph Ossai, Javonne Shepherd, Chance Mock, Kris Boyd, Holton Hill, Malcom Brown, Malik Jefferson, Traylon Shead, Marcus Davis, Tim Cole, Jake Oliver, Patrick Hudson, Jeffrey McCulloch, Deandre McNeal, Keontay Ingram, Jalen Green, Josh Moore, Jordan Whittington, Moro Ojomo, and David Snow all went to aggy? I'm sure I left more than a few players off the list that chinpubes and crew were just completely positive aggy was getting, but I think you get the idea. And yes, I know a few kids we thought were Texas locks that went to aggy. But our list is just a little bit longer. Only slightly.
  21. Irony, thy name is "aggy."
  22. I think they're talking about Willie Tyler - the Iowa JUCO kid they recruited late in the 2019 class. Kid was definitely a project, but I know the staff felt like all of the physical traits were there. The good news is that I'm pretty sure I remember that reading Tyler Johnson has also been solid. Kool-Aid for everyone.
  23. If anyone would know "systemic issues," it's Baylor fans. Also, as a general rule, are you really even allowed to talk shit about school you've never beaten more than twice in a row in almost a hundred fucking tries? A school that beat you sixteen straight times at one point? When that same school went 2-1 against you during that programs darkest hour?
