  1. I always liked the change bank ones
  2. Forget it, Jake. It’s Chinatown.
  3. That’s good to read. Bobby and Gerry aren’t generally sunshine pumpers, so maybe that fall camp kool-aid is for real this time.
  4. If it’s not over, we’re not getting the kind of class we need. If we get Simmons, a lot of those other dominoes will start falling our way. I’d say if we get Simmons, one of the two CB’s, and Baker, we’re in good shape.
  5. The post-practice livestreams from IT yesterday were like the Meat Market Review. Everyone looks bigger, stronger, faster. The S&C program has really remade these guys’ bodies. Kool-Aid continues to flow.
  6. Gerry said something in one of the livestreams earlier in the week that may be relevant. He was asked whether we had any silent commitments and said that we did, but “that doesn’t mean the player hasn’t told another school he’s coming there as well.” Lots of tea leaves indicating that Simmons did a silent commit on his OV weekend to Texas. Sounds like he’s also probably given LSU some strong indications he’s leaning their way as well. Gonna be a long week.
  7. Kevin Dunn getting back into sports talk?
  8. Our Center that everyone wants to replace is driving a Lambo, but LSU is going to teach the best edge rusher in the country to fish because they can do that better than we can.
  9. Interesting. Simpson was a highly ranked recruit, but came from a 2A school in West Tennessee where he was coached by his dad. Dual threat guy. I guess they think Milroe is a lost cause, but Simpson making the start against us in a prime time game of the week feels a little like Colt McCoy getting the start against Ohio State in 2006. At least Milroe has started a game in that environment before.
  10. All of which appear to be a vast improvement over what the University of Michigan serves its recruits.
  11. I’m not saying they’re right. The post I was responding to was asking what the IT people were saying about this recruitment.
  12. I don’t get the LSU thought of how a sped up timeline favors them. Simmons still has an OV to them for the Florida game this season, so presumably stringing it out would help them. Maybe they just think his UOV last weekend was that good, but on Monday Justin Wells was pointing out the lack of updates on the LSU side was very telling and good for us. IT/Texas ON3 are saying Texas. Nahlin and Gerry have both put in RPM’s for Texas. Nahlin’s was way too high and he’s had to walk it back a bit, but both are still standing by the picks.
  13. I’d recommend the French Quarter Inn, it’s very nice.
  14. Nature hates a vacuum and if we stop speculating on recruits this thread quickly reverts to the Greater Charleston Chamber of Commerce thread.
  15. CTJ also said Texas was not going to lose Simmons over NIL. From what we know, if we are going to blow our NIL wad on anyone this cycle, it’s for Simmons. This kid seems to be big on personal branding and maximizing his NIL potential, and the opportunities in Austin are going to be much better than in Baton Rouge.
  16. Not just IT, the 247 guys have the same confidence.
  17. Sorry if it was mentioned already but Jalen Catalon is a full go for the start of camp.
  18. Look, we’re really not in a good position to determine the credibility of purple18 until we know whether he’s been to Charleston and what he thinks of the hot ass quotient there.
  19. Has there ever been smack talk over “who are the real Bulldogs” between UGA and Miss. State? Or “the real Tigers” with LSU and Mizzou? Have Miss. State and ATM ever fought about who wears “the real shade of maroon?” Has there ever been the battle of “the real OSU” that wears black and orange? It’s not like we’re going to have a loser leaves town match with Tennessee over this stuff.
  20. Oh well. At least we got Robinson this week. If you like smaller college towns where everything revolves around the football program, then Clemson is a good place to be.
  21. Could be that Wiltfong is just backing up his 247 team on Gipson.
  22. Florida should be penciled in to beat Tennessee every year until Tennessee starts a modest streak in this series. Since Meyer took over this one has been almost automatic even when Tennessee has the better team. Maybe Heupel changes it, maybe not.
