  1. ESPN as a stand alone recruiting source is hot garbage. Use the on3 or 247 consensus, the former being more equally weighted and the latter being the more referenced standard.
  2. No. Ewers and Williams are/were in the 'same class'. If the logic doesn't apply to us, it doesn't apply to them.
  3. blOU went into last season with the consensus Heisman favorite and #1 QB in the 2021 class (not counting Ewers) backing him up. Next season they'll probably be starting Dillon Gabriel. You hate to see it.
  4. 1/21, though it looks like exceptions can be made until 2/2 https://registrar.utexas.edu/calendars/21-22
  5. While I don't entirely disagree, we had Angilau and Okafor when the season started and questions behind them. Turns out our next best guards were Tope Imade and Hayden Connor, neither of which would have been one of the best 5 in fall camp which is when they could have tried Angilau at center.
  6. IT addressed the fact that there's very little leaking out of Moncrief right now and to expect a WR coach announcement much like the Choice announcement. Out of nowhere.
  7. Sure, people who don't take into account that he's a Westlake kid coached by his dad and is going to show up on some campus pretty maxed. The excitement on Burke isn't production, it's traits and untapped upside. As prospects, they're not all that close.
  8. This is a gross overgeneralization. Depends on what needs to be fixed. Maalik could come on faster than that, especially with the extended senior season.
  9. Fatterson's recent twitter follows are interesting @NoName
  10. Gee. I wonder what these schools have in common that would create a culture of public perception > tangible experience.
  11. Preaching to the choir, boss. Doesn't mean FWK is any less of an asshole, and it certainly doesn't mean that the trainer game doesn't need to evolve in response to NIL. Street agents controlled the market as the primary conduit to cash transactions between schools and families. Now schools are having wealth conversations with elite prospects and offering UBI++ for athletes. There will still be families that choose cash now, but that market is slowing to a trickle. Unfortunately, the most likely outcome is an increase in attempting to 'build a brand' for high school athletes. We'll see more Lou Pearlman/Don King promoter types looking for parent money and cuts from actual NIL deals. That said, it will never turn back into what it was imo, because actual agents exist and can set a legitimate market that street agents will have to sell against and unlike other things recently legalized in certain states, the underground market won't provide a cheaper or more profitable alternative to the legitimate one.
  12. Because they don't understand QB evaluations, but arm angle is easy to see and they heard Gruden talk about it one time. This is all silly. Actual talent evaluators gave Ewers a perfect recruit ranking. I don't know if he'll be Trevor Lawrence, but I do know that internet Ewers truthers won't deflate my boner.
  13. Looks like it was written a while ago. Maybe they thought Gerry would update it.
  14. Perkins is not enrolling early and it’s been said he’ll not sign during nsd1. The only ‘just show up’ candidates are early enrollees who don’t sign in nsd1 and I don’t believe there are any of those left. Sounds to me like Campbell got his letter in at the deadline and is going to announce at the all star game, as was the original plan.
  15. Stupid Posters of Surly: "We should hire Ricky Williams to replace Drayton!" Ricky Williams:
  16. Not ideal, but we closed on Neto and potentially Agbo with Greene potentially an option so...
