  1. Sorry for the derail, but I saw RSJ and I thought Ricky Seals-Jones. https://247sports.com/player/ricky-seals-jones-12471/high-school-17072/ What a recruiting class that was, and much of those guys did nothing.
  2. There are reasons for optimism with Moore
  3. This is where I am at. He has some top-tier skills, but clear question marks about size and ultimate fit. But Texas is in a great position since it is recruiting at a high level that it can take on someone like Kruel to see how he develops and maximize his skills without pining the Edge position's future on his potential development. There is plenty of talent in that room. Unlike years past when the Edge room's potential was largely dependent on the hopeful development of a player like Breckyn Hager.
  4. Why would someone get a tattoo of Brent Venables on their forearm?
  5. If I remember correctly, Bobby stated in a recent C&F segment that Texas should take a TE this class even though they really like Townsend and Winston and things were looking bleak on the recruiting front. His comments this morning about the staff potentially skipping on TE this class is a reversal and telling of how Texas sees the TE big board for this year.
  6. 2026 Edge recruiting summary: Richard Wesley - commit Bryce Perry-Wright - Wesley fills this spot; commit to A&M. Jake Kruel - likely going to OU; doesn't seem like Texas is really pushing here Jamarion Carlton - TBD Luke Wafle - Big NIL from USC; Texas really wanted this one and there seemed to be high mutual interest Trenton Henderson - Big NIL from LSU; Texas really wanted this one and there seemed to be high mutual interest Kevin Ford - Texas really never engaged Landon Barnes - Looks like Texas did a quick eval, but didn't push this spring. Current Ole Miss recruit. Maybe a fall eval? Dre Quinn - Clemson committ; seemed like it might go Texas' way, but decided to stay closer to home. Seems like one Texas will find room for if things change
  7. Besides NIL offer increases, here is my view on how and where Texas might win "hang around the rim recruitments" in 2025: Sell doubt on the football program trajectory / development / head coach stability. These are programs that have coaches who aren't on the hot seat right now, but a rocky 2025 can cause a recruit to question the stability of the program: A&M: Roseborough, Edwards, Krempin Michigan: Malakai Lee Alabama: Ezavier Crowell, Sam Utu, Xavier Griffin Head coach gets fired. These are programs that seem most likely to fire their head coach this year if things don't go well: USC: Mark Bowman, Luke Wafle, Jaimeon Winfield LSU: Jabari Mack, Trenton Henderson Florida: Kendall Guervil Head coach leaves for a new job. Dan Lanning and Ryan Day have had NFL rumors the past few years: Oregon: Jalen Lott Ohio State: Damari Simeon Head coach is a buffoon (Brian Kelly) LSU: Jabari Mack, Trenton Henderson
  8. Point to where there is evidence that Sark isn't building a foundation from HS recruiting?
  9. Ojo. Gerry is reporting $2M over two years from Tech for a player that was "2nd team all district"
  10. The best North Shore players leave Texas to go nowhere
  11. That's insane, but good for him. I would imagine giving Guervil or any of these recruits that kind of money would blow up the budget for our current roster (i.e. pay comparable amounts to current players). I would guess probably cause it to double, which is absolutely unstable. These poor football programs throwing around huge dollars because of the new rev share cap and their current roster is cheap will have a hard reckoning in a year or two.
  12. I got this guys. I am going to get our streak turned around. You can thank me later.
