  1. I may have too much access to old information. Like I said, my opinion of the kid is based on his actions in high school. His dad was a piece of work, too. Wanted special treatment for his son. Wanted JP excused from certain work outs that he didn’t think his son needed to participate in. Constant gym selfies and look-at-me shit blasted on social media, but didn’t actually work out hard, if at all. Did not have the respect of his teammates or coaches. I’m sure TexPete has covered this stuff pretty thoroughly. All that said, I won’t ignore the possibility that the kid has had an awakening and learned some humility. I hope he has. I want young people to develop into contributing members of society, and I believe in redemption. If such a transformation has transpired, it’s happened in the last couple of years. I’m just telling you, he was a turd and a waste of potential all through high school. I never had any optimism for his success based 100% on his attitude and personality.
  2. If he’s a good kid, that’s a recent development. He was an incredible douche in high school. Entitled, narcissistic douche.
  3. He was a wasted scholly. He would have helped us more by staying at Baylor.
  4. Agreed. Our class isn’t bad. We’ve brought in some outstanding out-of-state talent and we have room to grow with late quality. It’s frustrating because we’re getting beaten in-state at possitions of need, which should NEVER happen. FCB. But I like it better than the days when Mack jumped all over Trey Hopkins and Dom Espinosa in May and then never offered Luke Joeckel.
  5. Agreed. Honestly, my biggest fear is his decommitting and going to OU or aggy. I hope he stays at tOSU and flounders in the turmoil.
  6. Most of the online “journalists” are just sports paparazzi these days. There are a few who actually accumulate facts/stats and provide insightful, objective analysis of those facts, but those are few and far between. The few good articles get buried under the piles of crap written to satisfy the unwashed masses. It takes time to scour all those sources to get substantive info.
  7. At the risk of injecting positivity, Vegas favors us in every game except OU going into the season.
  8. My 72 year-old mother is better than Urquidez.
  9. Art Briles sends his regards from Italy.
