    Have heard $9.95ers compare his potential to Andrew Beck if he develops as a blocker.  Does seem to catch the ball well...

    I'm not holding my breath but if he can develop enough to be favorably compared to Andrew Beck, this take would be an absolute home run

    Nah, it'll be more enjoyable to watch them run his dead carcass over with a bus over and over like they do every other QB who doesn't meet their ridiculous expectations.

    Yeah, either one is acceptable. Maybe I'm a softie for rooting for the outcome that leads to the least term health consequences (relying on pass protection from that OL? ouch) for a kid I really don't have anything against other than getting duped into committing to aggy. But, definitely, watching them turn on him will also be delicious.

    Watching the Aggies # 1 recruiting class melt away like cotton candy in the rain has filled me with a great deal of schadenfreude.  And let's be honest: shadenfreude is the best kind of freude! 

    I'm still holding out an impossible hope that someone like UGA, UTenn, or tOSU (Stroud has declared, right?) makes an offer Weigman can't refuse. I'm also disappointed in Bo Nix for coming back for what seems like his 8th year of eligibility because I think Oregon would have had one of the best shots to pull it off.

    Not going to happen but we can dream

    Right, but I was just saying regardless of how many were thrown to him, he didn't drop many, whereas Niblett has supposed inconsistent hands (that's what the $9.95ers said), but I'm sure he's plenty fast, just not Duvernay fast, that I'm aware of. But he has plenty of time to become a great wr for us, so I'm not worried about comparing anyone to [name great Texas wr]. 

    I think I remember reading that he ran an unofficial 4.29 forty recently? Im guessing it was hand-timed but still. It's always projection with these kids but if he can improve his catching consistency and master the route tree, watch the fuck out

    I remember that we went pretty hard after this kid but there were concerns about speed and athleticism. Eight catches for 34 yards doesn't inspire a ton of confidence but he was just a freshman. Could he maybe fill the need for a wide catch radius guy? Seems like a classic Herman-type receiver and I'm not sure we need any more of those

    Watched Mukuba sparingly this year, but he seemed kinda...not physical.

    He could definitely stand to be more physical. But he would he still be a huge addition. I hope we're tampering with him like hell

    Edit: more highlights. I'm sure it's wishcasting but I would love to see this kid in a proper shade of orange

    We did add Neyor and he went through spring practice and looked like a game changer. WR wasn't considered a huge need in the 2nd portal window, and even still Texas went after Addison because that is the type of guy Texas should be chasing in the portal. Texas doesn't need guys that raise the floor, they need guys that raise the ceilings.

    I feel like everyone wringing their hands over us not going after X, Y, or Z players in the portal should also remember that some of the biggest names didn't enter until late last year. For example, I think Jordan Addison didn't officially enter the portal until like May, right? I think even Caleb Williams waited until January (even though everyone had known for months). Neyor didn't commit until late January, IIRC. I'm sure there's some other important guys I'm forgetting who entered or decided late as well.

    So, although we may have missed on some guys that could theoretically help us (although, and I could be mistaken, I really don't recall seeing any "must get" guys yet), this isn't over by a long shot. There will be other guys, some of whom will probably be really, really good available down the road. Let's wait and see how bad aggy fucks up their OC hire while keeping Stewart on speed dial

  8. I'm sure LSU fans will try to sell this as too far-fetched or too crazy to be true. But I think pretty much everyone learned a long time ago to never discount any story coming out of Louisiana as "too insane."

    He was likely gonna flip anyway, but the smoke became a fire when Mehringer was fired and Coleman was eventually promoted

    Most likely - but I definitely remember hearing that a some of it was related to Herman being a flailing prick and Coleman being an unegaging lump. I think a better set of coaches and recruiters would have gone a long way towards keeping him. Maybe we'd have lost him no matter what - but not getting him will always piss me off. He would've been exactly what the Horns needed this year

    Is this true or he just trying to be an asshole? As much as this forum hates Ketch & Chip Brown, I don't really hate those 2 guys at all and Bohls is who I've always hated.

    I don't buy this for a second. Fuck Kirk Bohls and fuck Chip Brown

    And completely unnecessary contact. Dude is fortunate. Never needed to make the play like that. 

    That was my thought as well. Guy was already headed to the ground when he took the first step. I feel like throwing yourself in there like that could also risk unnecessary roughness if you're a second later. Best thing he could've done was to just stand there
