Can confirm. He does not.

2024 Texas Football Coaching and Support Staff Thread
Yep. There were a good number of plays where Brooks or Watts were in decent position, but they were trailing. You can’t look back while trailing, and asking them to be in a position to look back while 1 on 1 with UW’s receivers would be completely unrealistic. Playing Quarters, especially at the college level, means your DBs won’t be able to turn and find the ball very often, because they don’t have safety help over the top. Penix made perfect throw after perfect throw to NFL WRs. Not much we could do about that part. Like you said, the real issue was coverage/alignment busts or getting beat by Grubbs before the snap.

He’s not an elite run defender, but he holds up well at edge for his size. He’s very likely going to start at Buck (weak side edge who tends to drop into coverage more than Jack). If he proves to be an Ovie Oghufo-level liability in the run game, then he’ll be limited to pass rush specialist, but I doubt that. He had us, Bama, tOSU pushing extremely hard for him. Those 3 schools wouldn’t do that if they thought he couldn’t hold up at edge.

People were also saying Brooks might be our best CB at this time last year, so Muhammad and Williams’ progress will be a key point to watch next year. Charlie and Tom both had very talented true freshman DBs flash and then they regressed the next year. Williams and Muhammad have to keep improving for our secondary to have a chance.

Watts is what he is at this point. He has improved and developed since he got to Texas, but he’s more of a safety than a CB. He’s got inherent agility/quickness limitations that really show themselves against future NFL WRs. The coaches did a good job of making him work at boundary CB the last two years. He’s not a point against our DB coaching. I’m not convinced anybody could develop Crawford. He probably just doesn’t have it mentally to be a good DB. With that said, CB and S coaches are definitely the weak spot on the coaching staff, and I’d like to see at least one fo them replaced. I doubt that happens. The silver lining is we’re bringing in enough talent this year to remove the talent excuse and know for sure whether Gideon or Joseph can develop/coach their positions. My expectation is they can’t, but hopefully at least one of them will surprise us next year.

Aggy 2024: Still waiting on the Looch 44
All the MAC and FCS schools are absolutely quaking in their boots at the thought of the Elk having this many open scholarship spots.

That’s incredible news. He is going to absolutely terrorize the Big 12 leftovers in that offense.

6figs/"Trust the Hamm" greatest hits
Well, I do have trouble imaging Hamm making more than $20k per year so there’s a chance he’s right, but I doubt it. Also, Hamm is the perfect candidate to pull a Greenspoint and post a picture of his pool commission checks on Twitter.

No. His comment about Elmo’s transition class only applies if they sign Bussey, McKinley, Evans, and Jernigan. Narrator: They won’t. The class will fall off a cliff in his metrics once that happens.

Aggy 2024: Still waiting on the Looch 44
I don’t know what’s funnier, taking a month to hire a total JAG like Jay Bateman as the DC or Elko making his entire staff be carryovers from Duke plus raiding one of the worst coaching staffs in all of college football. Oh, and hiring an equipment manager from Nebraska to be your TE coach because he’s buddies with the OC you supposedly hired but still appears to be working for KSU. This is honestly better than fiction.

Something tells me a 6’4, 4.4 40 guy will not end up being Drake Stoops.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls
With Bobby Burton and that Ray guy both showing up on Surly this week, it reminds me that everyone involved with Texas football reads Surly. I’d bet Dustin Miksch and Clint Haney are reading Surly right now.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls
That was close. We almost took Wingo for granted.- 2024 Transfer Thread - The Pedantic Circlejerk
Stoops has done a great job in the portal for 3 years now and has drastically raised Kentucky’s HS recruiting while also showing results on the field. Yet, somehow aggy decided there was no way in hell he deserved to be their coach and ousted him for a guy who’s currently raiding the FCS teams just to be able to fill out a 2 deep. Never change, aggy.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls
