    Can I get the Surly preference between Stone and Milroe? I had a nice little Thursday yesterday and I'd like to get absolutely furious on the internet today. 

    Probably a discussion for the 2021 thread.

    People probably asked Saban why he took Josh Jacobs. OU offered late and Texas never offered. I’m pretty sure he was a 3*. Sometimes you have to watch the film (highlights) and do your homework. 

    Sweet, so saban hit on a 3 star, and you already have van playing on sundays. You are absolutely missing my point.

    I think you’re missing mine. This guy is a great take because he is a great football player. His film looks good. His numbers look good. Sometimes the rankings are wrong and the coaches are right. If you can’t watch his highlights and look at his combine numbers and understand why we took him, you can plan to be frustrated by recruiting. If I’m missing your point, so is everyone else. Why don’t you make a better point?

    Man who pissed in your Cheerios? He's an awesome DL3 take, as Machinator said. No one's looking for the second coming of Christian Wilkins here.

    He’s an aggy troll. I’d love to hear his explanation of how the cinder blocks in their OL class are going to keep Case’s reincarnation in one piece.

    Okay, gotta ask. I click on this thread daily because I enjoy it. But I cant recall Van Fillinger coming up. Per 247C he is #373 and a 3 star looking at regional schools mainly like Utah, byu, colorado, BSU, etc. A few roll your eyes offers from michigan and tosu.

    Can somebody tell me why this guy is a great get? I'm in no way discounting him, he may be great but I am obviously missing something. A team full of #373's in the country equals kansas state.

    What are you talking about? 247 shows offers from 5/8 of the blue bloods (USC, Michigan, Ohio State, Nebraska, and Texas). He also has an offer from LSU. I get he’s a 3 star but plenty of quality schools offered him.

    This!!! Why was JJ Watt overlooked? It happens. At least this kid is being offered by blue bloods.

    Yes, he’s a little stiff, but he has a hell of a motor. His first step is pretty tremendous, truthfully. He gets no credit for that. He’s in the backfield many times before the offensive lineman knows what happened. He looks powerful on tape, and his combine numbers support that. He also had a hell of a rip move in at least one of the clips that jumped out at me. His technique isn’t as bad as some say. In fact, it’s probably better than most kids at his stage of development. I think he’s a great pickup and better than other four-star kids out there on the camp circuit. 

    If he played in a state that produced more top tier athletes, I’m think he might have a higher rating. I think he’s underrated, and I’m betting his ratings will improve.

    So he was told a week before the announcement it was going to be Texas, yet spent the two days leading up to the announcement posting anything could still happen. Dude was creating drama for no apparent reason.

    I think he was covering his ass in the wake of the Robinson misread. Can’t blame him.

    He may also have been playing it conservatively to appease his source.

    Also... the fact that he is at SMU.  If you are talented enough to earn a Texas offer, you don't voluntarily choose a non-P5 school because of a position coach.

    Right, unless you’re Ed Oliver, but those examples are extremely rare. I’m guessing we’ll probably see traffic increase in the #AustintoDallas transfer portal, too. 

  8. In on 500.

    Honestly, SMU is turning into our triple A club. I like Samples there. He’ll send studs to us who are too good for SMU and vice versa. Then we’ll call him up as soon as we can ditch some dead weight. That’s my glass-half-full thought, anyway.

    Karen's eating ice cream 3 meals a day and TARP's locking it down because people are losing their minds and (gasp) challenging each other to cancel their subs.  

     

    VB's trolling has broken them.  

     

    Even if we are being trolled and he goes aggy on Monday, I can’t imagine our meltdown being a fraction of what those sheep fuckers are exhibiting. Not even this board. That place is Chernobyl.
