He was hired because a) we missed on our top choices, b) he's supposed to be good at the coaching side of things (certainly compared to Meh/Meek) and c) the current players like him, which was critical when some of them were on the precipice of transferring.
None of those are recruiting chops, and WR is a position that usually has a recruiting guy at coach.
I think in the long run, Coleman will be fine as long as the current WR core show big jumps in 2020(2021). The recruiting will pick up.

How many years are we going to continue to miss out on the top in-state WR talent. You would think with Herman considering himself in offensive "guru", these players would be lining up to play for him. Missed out on Waddle (not going to blame Herman for this one), Garrett Wilson, JSN, Demas, now possibly Earle. There's a difference between guys top rated guys like Brennan Eagles and Jake Smith and the rest of our WR roster or 3 and low 4 star guys. We need more elite WR talent if we want to compete with the likes of Clemson, Bama, tOSU, LSU and ou.
So you're not going to blame the staff for Waddle but for Garrett Wilson you are? Demas too? and now Earle is on par with them?

Drumm will be attacking his base once Foreman commits to SC without giving any thought to ou

What would be the point--he'd just flunk out.

If the season doesn't play out, it's going to be tough to flip any of these WRs. Coleman needed the spring game and of course, the 2020 season to show what he could do (along with Yurkich playcalling).
However the light in a very long dark tunnel.. is that 2022 looks to be stacked and if for whatever reasons there is no football this fall or early next spring, Texas could sell depth chart again awaiting the 2021 season

I'll keep banging the only add 4 PAC schools drum. The Big 12 is the side in the position of strength. So none of the current members of the Big 12 would be dropped. WVU is the only one who might want to leave. So:
West: USC, UCLA, ASU, UA/CU, TTU, TCU, OSU
East: Texas, OU, KSU, KU, ISU, BU, WVU
If WVU ever finds a spot in the ACC/SEC, then great. If not, that's fine, too. They do well on TV. Assuming they do find a spot in the ACC/SEC, then this:
West: USC, UCLA, ASU, UA, CU, TTU, TCU
East: Texas, OU, KSU, KU, ISU, OSU, BU
Hold at 14 until another blue blood becomes available. I feel pretty confident that Nebraska would be knocking on our door as soon as their B1G GOR gets near to its end.That's a solid plan with 14 which I rather have.. but something tells me if SC/UCLA are on board..both AZ schools and Cal will be too. Does the Big 12 only take one AZ school? Think it's best for both to be in long term.

Its one of their biggest issues. Most of their games are played when the east coast isn't watching. Its hard to make up for the lack of 150m people, you need a far greater amount in the west coast watching than any other part of the world. If the Big16 thing happened, just because why the fuck not nothing else is going on right now, the Big 12 should put any home game in the central time zone on at noon eastern and any on the west coast on at 330 eastern, and any featured games (like USC/Texas, Oregon/OU) in prime time. Not always the best for fans, but a fuck ton more eyeballs than playing after dark night games in Cali.
And certain games would still do well for the 10pm kickoffs. Tech vs ASU or Cal vs okie light.. One thing for sure.. Big 12/14/16 would be covered from Noon to Midnight on Saturday nights.

Justin Flowe never gave a public commitment. Also in that case didn't Clemson just get another 5* LB instead?
yep.. Mack was working hard for Simpson and once Flowe made it known he wasn't signing to them late, they offered and the kid jumped without even visiting. maybe the church will get into Tunmise the great ear?

I don't see many Pac12 games being played when Big12 games are airing, so flipping over to the random Pac12 game rarely if ever happens in my house.
Yeah big 12 seems to really push most of it's big games at noon or the 3:30 pm kickoffs. I normally see a PAC game late afternoon through the evening and late night. However it would help them if they played the 3:30pm/7pm kickoffs in FTW, Norman, Austin

22 teams is way too many. You have to cap it at 16 if you want to do divisions. I preferably like 14 instead. Big 12 has the upperhand and if I were ISU, KSU I would want Bowlsby to raid the PAC in expansion rather than a merger. Add three CA schools, plus the AZ schools and either the utes or CO. and the big 12 is stable once again. CA, AZ and TX can carry a 16 team conference.
West=SC,ucla, Cal, AZ, ASU, Tech, Co/utes, TCU
Central= UT, baylor, ou, okie, isu, ksu, ks, WV
7 Div games, 2 cross division games. Rotate the CCG between Jerry world and Vegas.
I would prefer 14 schools so if you could have a choice to drop two of the following; WV, AZ, BU, KSU or CO/utes

Clemson fans are saying it was a "mutual decommitment" because Foreman wanted to take visits but Dabo wouldn't exempt him from the no-visits policy 🤔
Such a dumb policy.. Feels like Flowe from a year ago

Isn’t that Clemson’s first recommitment in like 5 years?
Also how the fuck do you de commit from Clemson so you can go be a 5 tech in Orlando’s defense? That’s absurd levels of stupid. I guess it’s gotta be something to do with moving that far away?
Same thing that happened with Flowe last cycle.. Going opposite coast is a tough tough pill to swallow as NSD approaches. As this CV breakout is going on, you really don't want to leave your family behind in case anything bad pops up.

I don't really see USC/ UCLA going for a deal that cuts out access to ESPN (& Fox)...
This sounds as if (Arizona/ Arizona State fans think) it's a Larry Scott hail mary pass...
In other news, MWC sounds as if reckoning day, may be on the way, very shortly now...
Udub fans seem to think, they along with Stanford will join the Rustbelt before giving any real thought to the Big 12

Strictly from a casual consumer standpoint, the biggest problem with Pac-12 to Apple TV is, I don't want to have to change apps to flip between games. It's time consuming and cumbersome. Having one app (say, YouTubeTV) open and changing inputs on the TV to get back and forth between "cable" and broadcast games is OK, but if I have to either a) tell Roku "quit YTTV, open Apple TV app, go to Pac-12 Football TV channel" (and vice versa), no fucking way. Nor do I want to buy another "box" (an Apple TV) just to be able to limit the switching to inputs, just so I can watch P12 games.
This isn't an old man yelling @ cloud thing, either-- I like technology, I love the Apple TV unit but don't use one myself as I prefer Roku. I just don't KNOW of an easy way to add a Pac 12 on Apple TV game into that swapping rotation.
I agree with that. I still have cable (verizon fios), and when Texas is playing LaTech on a Saturday evening on LHN, it's no biggie to hit the aux button and already have the game playing through my PS4 console. Can hit aux again to watch whoever is playing primetime on ABC or eSPN... But if I have to use another App off my TV or PS4 console.. it's going to be really frustrating.

Didn't want to say anything but my gut tells me JSN has gotten cold Bru feet about going to Columbus and is looking to return to Austin

State of Recruiting Podcast w/Roach
Interview with Cooks is pretty great. He's a talker. Loves Hutzler, made some comments like "when I commit, er...if I committed to Texas". Texas is in a good spot. Committing in Novemberish, around the HS playoffs. May/June he'll release a top list. Xavion Alford is hard selling him on the coeds. He's enamored with some other schools like Georgia, but he talks about how he doesn't have any friends there and none of their commits are recruiting him. Noted Va Tech is doing so well because Alec Bryant is basically recruiting the state, landing DDavis and others.
Terrence Cooks looks to be the LB that will finally hit. Blacksburg has a beautiful scenery with the mountains and all. But that place sucks if you want to live there.

Wonder if the TV money will be as high as it was projected before this happened.
