    Dude, you obviously know your stuff. The 2017 in-state class definitely wasn't stacked at positions of need. Nope. Didn't sting at all.

    Different circumstances. Our class was fucked because everyone knew Charlie was on his way out. Little and Chaison were the only major targets we still had a chance with after firing Strong.

    It's impressive you were able to remember all the way back to 2 years ago when things were worse. "I can't remember the last time I ate today, well except for lunch 3 hours ago."

    Maybe you don't remember, but 2017 was a transition class. Little and Chaison were the only ones that really stung. Most of the other guys weren't even considering us. This year we've lost Nana, Bragg, Wilson, Leal and Wright, all guys who were considered Texas leans at one point.

    They have 10 more commits than us and a lower average ranking. They've won some battles, but you're getting swept up in the rollercoaster hype.

    So everything's fine and all we have to do is wait for aggy to aggy? It's not just about A&M. I don't remember us ever taking this many kicks to the groin in a single cycle. 2017 sucked, but we knew it would be tough after going 5-7 and firing our coach. This year we're just getting punked.

    On 247 this is a comparison of our top 10 players vs aggy top 10 by star ratings.  aggy's list is warmed over shit except for Garrett and Kirk.  Tellus is a talented clown.  

    VY, Sergio Kindle, Jackson Jeffcoat, BJ Johnson, Jonathan Gray, Rod Wright,  Jordan Hicks, Tray Allen, Malcom Brown, Mike Davis.

    Myles Garrett, Reggie McNeal, Kyle Allen, Speedy Noil, Kenyon Green, Martellus Bennett, Jorrie Adams, Daylon Mack, Trey Williams, Christian Kirk.  

     

    Aggy may squander more talent than anyone in the country, but they're kicking our ass on the trail right now. Hopefully Herman isn't burying his head in the sand the way some of you guys are and actually has a plan to make some necessary changes.

    I think the assistants are on 2 year contracts so Herman wouldn't have to fire Mehringer. His contract will just not be renewed. 

    I think Mehringer should be gone and so should warhime. Get a new wr coach, or move beck there. Meekins to TE. Open spot to a recruiting DL coach. 

    This. Jettison Meh and  Warehime, move Beck to WR and Meekins back to TE, and hire a competent OC and a Dline coach that can recruit.

    Did MacIntyre flat out lie to everyone about his knowledge?

    Is lying to the press a fireable offense? I'm not trying to defend Urban; I would love to see him fired and for OSU to gtfo of Texas. Just saying that there is a precedent for a coach reporting a wife beater on his staff (which I don't believe Urban actually did), not immediately firing him, and keeping his job.

    I realize this is an orchestrated effort, but again, he didn't do the right thing in 2015. Urban had the authority to fire Smith in 2015 and chose not to. But then immediately fires him in 2018 when the facts come to light. You can't reconcile that.

    Mike MacIntyre allowed an alleged wife beater to remain on his staff after reporting him to the AD, and he still has his job. So there is a precedent. This is obviously the path that Meyer/OSU are trying to follow.

    In Iowa the joke is The University of Nebraska.

    Frost is going to make a monster in Lincoln.  If he had zero ties to Nebraska he'd be outstanding, with the ties he'll become the closest thing UNL fans will get to Tom Osborne.  

    What difference do ties to Nebraska make? It's not exactly a recruiting hotbed.
