You can hear the anger in chin pubes posts. That’s the good stuff.

I am a member. About to cancel. Really should have a decade or more ago, but just too lazy because it's a PITA.
FYI I just changed the expiration date on my card and I’ve had free access for over a year. I didn’t realize how much damage they were doing when I cancelled, I had just been banned for the 20th time for not being able to control my language when I responded to Ketchum’s retarded musings.

I knew the minute I heard about the visit that fucking Ketchum and his band of speds were going to eventually get wind and then immediately put it out there, with no consideration for whether or not that’s productive. They didn’t get this from anyone related to the effort on the UT end or Ewers end. They usually weasel this kind of thing from another recruit who is on a text string or something. Just fucking trash.
Don’t think it matters? Well, now everyone knows an exact timeline. So if you wanted to intervene with a final pitch or offer addition, you’d know when to do it. It also dissolved trust between the two parties if the recruit doesn’t fess up. The Ewers end will think Texas is talking and vice versa when neither wants the courting process covered this time. In the last two days, Ketchum and his cronies have established a baseline for the offer to beat, when the big pitch is being made, and when the final decision is coming.
I don’t know if it’s really considered good news, but the staff (and so I assume Ewers as well) knew there was a good chance it would leak once they started telling recruits Ewers will be there this weekend. I was told straight up- hopefully orange bloods and 247 don’t find out until we are closer to the weekend. It’s really unbelievable at this point, and I think there’s a good case to broach the idea of pulling orange bloods credentials. So many people I talk to use orange bloods and have no idea the trouble they cause. It would be nice to even just see their hand get slapped which would “start the conversation” like Ketchum says.

Did any school actually have a good breakfast? A prison had a better breakfast than ours.
Ours was terrible. Disgusting eggs.

My nephew will get brought up on a recruiting board here in the coming years. He is being recruited by everyone in the country from the bottom (aggie) to top ivy league schools. He is being thorough and is visiting the shit out of every school that will have him. It is an experience he wants to enjoy. Yall don't get it and I don't get it but it is par for the course. I send his mom every NIL deal Texas has, but he still wants to play the game. Chill.
The chicks alone would have me playing the game when I was that age.

I swear our elementary school cafeteria got their frozen chicken fried steaks from the same place Grandy's did. Always had those days circled.

Everyone is eager to see this come to some kind of close, but my advice is to chill. I havent been monitoring much today, and I likely wont tomorrow either. I don't know when this deal is happening, but I'll be checking more Thursday and Friday, even Saturday. If he decides before that then I will be pleasantly surprised. I'm comfortable with our position.

Yeah. We've all experienced that high that comes from being in Lubbock. Put a little time between him and the visit and maybe the euphoria will wear off.
Sometimes, it never wears off.

I know this guy personally. He’s plenty dialed in on both the SLC side and the O&G side. Big Texas fan and not a bullshitter, runs a well respected land business. Tech fired their shot and we are getting a chance to respond. Not very positive for Tech if you ask me.

I mean people complain when the 9.95ers fuck Texas by leaking shit and they complain when they don't.
If it wouldve been Ketchum he wouldve tweeted it out instantly. Nahlin does it the right way.

Btw, there's nothing official in the works between Texas and Texas Tech for when we head to the SEC. That was incorrectly reported.

Do we know how the "paying up" works at this point? Do we make concrete offers, or is it more like "we have sponsorships lined up and you'll have [a minimum amount of cash] in your pocket?
I don't specifically know what it means. Now I'm curious too.

This is a big ticket item. The DE guys can way overpay if they want and that might work, but it isnt a secret how badly QE is needed here. My guess is the bat phones are lit up like christmas trees in the big $$$ guys pockets.

No one knows anything except what Ewers' camp wants people to "know".
My feeling, based on zero information, is we are receiving the West Texas squeeze from Ewers' agents.
This is the new way things are done for the super high profile recruits. You want the top QB recruit in the nation? Be prepared to pay up. There wont be any leaks or information from Ewers' camp unless its something they want to get out there, whether true or not. The Tech power brokers are more than happy to make this as difficult and expensive as possible for us. This may not even be the last school he uses as leverage. I wouldnt be surprised if a&m sniffed this out and said they arent interested in getting their fans hopes up and upsetting Weigman just to be used for leverage.
Gun to my head, Ewers will be a Horn. (Now I will make my peace with God in case it gets blown off.)

To the tune of 1 million a year, BS. You said it yourself you were struggling to get Stewart a one time 200k, no?
I’ve never participated in anything Stewart related. And yea, I’d be surprised to hear that Mahomes threw in a million bucks. But it’s certainly possible for him to do so if he wants to, and we will see former athletes get involved on the $$$ side more and more.

Mahomes can absolutely sweeten the pot for Ewers.
Ewers or Bust- Lord have mercy I’m bout to bust
