    The amount of people melting down over a meaningless press conference is truly impressive. It actually surprises me, even though it shouldn't at this point.

    This. Could it be more obvious from Herman’s question-dodging that he knows he’s gone?

    We ran up 689 yards of total offense. That's 11.68 Watsons. In one game. I leave the judgment to you.  

    And UTEP didn’t even have Many Diaz on the sidelines.

    Holy shit is right. 

    5 OTs, 3 DTs, 2 WRs, 1 OG, 1 TE, and a kicker.  2/4* and 11/3*, all adding up to the 55th class and tied with Illinois for the fewest number of commits inside the top 100.

    But USC fans can keep their heads up, Todd Orlando is the 4th ranked recruiter for the 21 class.  L O fucking L.  

    Why can’t this fate befall OU or Ohio State?

    I'm not sure. I mean he made Ringo a 5 star prospect, but can you really rely on a guy that has never recruited when you have 1 maybe 2 years to not get fired.

    I see your point, but by the same logic, would hiring a guy who coaches in the secondary and would be covered by your DC, who also coaches in the secondary, not be worth it If it meant bringing in a 5* recruit (Ringo) who could help you short term? seems like the short term benefit would cover any risk. I think he’d be decent at coaching fundamentals, but I have no basis for that assumption other than his success on the field.

    Hand, Giles, and Drayton the only holdovers.   Need to find WR, TE, DL, LB, and DB coach.

     

    I wonder if Bryant Westbrook would be too much of a reach at this level.

    Is a mil a year enough to live the good life in LA?  I'm thinking not.

    It is if the good life is playing video games on a beanbag chair in a cheap apartment and sleeping on the floor.

    those programs are really not looting Texas with the exception of LSU

    and again with the exception of LSU those programs are not looting Texas for OL and DL players they are taking a lot of skill players especially WRs and DBs and some QBs

    here is what the 4 programs you mentioned have taken out of texas since 2014 up to and until their 2020 class listed on 24X7

    ga 3 K, CB, OT

    1 S

    1 WR

    0

    0

    0

    0


    osu 2 CB, WR

    1 WR

    1 PRO

    5 CB, APB, CB, WR, OLB

    0

    0

    1 OG


    LSU 2 ILB, CB

    2 OLB, K

    3 WDE, DT, DT

    6 WDE, OT, CB, S, OG, WR

    3 S, WR, WDE

    5 OG, OT, TE, DUAL WR

    7, S, S, WR, WDE, DT, K, TE


    Bama 2 ATH, OT

    2 CB, CB

    1 WR

    3 WR, TE, TE

    4 CB, OG, Dual, DT

    2 CB, S

    1 CB

     

    so with the exception of LSU there are few lineman being taken by those top programs out of Texas

    more importantly if you look at the classes of ALL those years for ALL those programs you see players taken from all over the USA and I think that is a major factor that UT misses out on and a lot of other Texas programs at all levels as well

    you get a bunch of guys in that are already familiar with each other, they all know each other or know of each other and their bullshit builds up on itself and the coaches have a hard time controlling it and a hard time getting guys to work for shit and to earn shit and it gets worse with all the shit that Texas provides them in the way of creature comforts and that Austin offers in the way of fucking off and having fun and living life outside of football

    Tom said he was looking to recruit outside of Texas heavily and he has so far done pretty much the exact opposite

    I was happy that Charlie tried, but he got burned so bad by the Florida Five Fuckheads (well most of them) that he got cold feet and went back to "win Texas" which is how to not win a NC.....lets be clear Charlie was not going to get it done most likely no matter who or where he recruited from, but it caused quite a stir with Texas HS coaches (and all their bullshit that needs to be stomped on when Charlie tried to recruit hard outside of Texas and same when Tom said it

    Texas has a lot of dickheads for HS coaches that produce a lot of dickheads for players and when you get too much of that on your college team you get stupidity and softness and fuckery

    and the fact that Texas HS coaches think their players are owed a spot at Texas universities and Texas universities play to that shit does not help anyone at all especially a program trying to win it all (unless win it all is recruiting WRTS or coach February like Mack was for a long time)

    Too long. Didn’t read. Went straight to Ohio State and saw that you left off JK Dobbins. All I needed to see.

    Texas puts out a few good QBs every few years and a few good skill guys like Dobbins but the offensive line recruits suck ass every single year and other than the occasional Ed Oliver or Ashawn Robinson the Dline sucks ass too. Can't build a title team with just skill players and a QB. Even the last two Heisman winners are looking bad (Mayfield) and just ok (Murray) in the NFL which combined with how well Hurts looks points to it being all Lincoln's abilities as an offensive coach. Hurts couldn't hit the broadside of a barn at Alabama and now looks like a Heisman contender too. 

    So soft lines, a couple of skill guys here and there, and QBs if they play for Lincoln Reilly. Yeah, crazy fertile recruiting grounds. Urban would have to find a way to pay enough money to mama to import his lines from SEC and Big 10 country and no Texas coach has been able to do that the modern game. Either that or run his offense like Reilly and win the big 12 only to get exposed in the playoff

    You don’t know what you’re talking about. Talent is not the issue. Coaching and development are the issues. Our best players leave the state/conference. Ohio State has looted us. Bama and LSU have looted us. Georgia is looting us. We and atm get talent and squander it. Half the NFL is led by QBs from the state of Texas. The premise of your argument is flawed. Texas is absolutely fertile recruiting ground, and Urban knows it, whether you do or not.

    I keep hearing about how Texas is such a fertile recruiting ground but name for me the Texas university that's kicking ass with all these blue Chip Texas recruits? If it's so fertile there has to be plenty to go around right?

    I think mostly Texas HS football players are spoiled and soft coming out of HS. Texans make too big of a deal about it and make these kids stars in their own towns. 

    Check the Ohio State roster. Check the last two Heisman winners and the last three OU QBs. See what Matt Rhule is doing with the Texas leftovers. 

    Urban Meyer is well aware of the Texas high school talent. He’s been stealing it for years. So has OU. I’m sure he knows what that talent would do if it were concentrated in its own state and actually coached properly. Same goes for USC.

    Why not go to OU when Lincoln goes to the Cowboys?

    Because Norman sucks ass and Oklahoma isn’t the fertile recruiting ground that Texas and California are.

    Is it on-field play?  Concern about this coaching staff?  Program direction as whole?  Have they given - or speculated about - specifics behind those expected decommits?

    I’m going to go out on a limb and guess, based on the fact that they’re all defensive players, that our defensive performance/ineptitude has something to do with it.

    We lost by one score each to the two most prolific offenses in college football. As shitty as we played, we held ou to their fewest points and yards this season, and held LSU to their second-lowest. Both of those teams are really fucking good this year -- front and center in the playoff and Heisman conversations.

    To be fair, we are the only team with a pulse OU has played, and we’re one of two live teams LSU has played. I’d hope our defense, with our talent, could fare better than the other garbage OU and LSU have played.
