  1. I'd guess McKinley based on the NIL and DL + Texas talk. It's also been reported that the mom is in love with UT so that would also line up with it being McKinley. Can't think of any other Texas vs OU recruiting battles remaining besides that one E: I'm an idiot and didn't check the thread I was in. Might be Stone then, but I'd still guess McKinley
  2. Weren't we laughing at A&M thinking they'd get everyone in the portal and having to pay a ton of $ to retain the little talent they have? Though we're not in a horrendous shape going forward like they are, it seems we were premature in confidently declaring we'd feast with the portal. Hopefully this wave of post-bowl transfers with good players materializes. Think counting on the roster as is is a pretty blatantly stupid decision Overall I agree about the selectiveness. Like the old saying goes, don't let perfect be the enemy of good
  3. Man, I'm really hoping this mythical safety that the staff is waiting for materializes and we grab them. Thompson developed over the year, but I don't think he's looking to be an All American and we still have to replace Cook Or are they just planning on shuffling the DBs? Have Barron at NB still but move Watts to safety. I know I've read something of the sort (but it could have been Ian fucking Boyd for all I know) about moves, and OSU fans did say he played better at safety for them. Then again I thought our pitch to him was that he could play CB, so dunno how feasible that is. Can't remember if it was something seriously being considered or more 995 bullshitting As long as we're not relying entirely on unproven depth/young starters across the secondary we'll be fine. Just less margin of error imo since the secondary doesn't seem to be as well coached as the front 7 (wild fucking sentence I never thought I'd type before the season)
  4. Main difference is AD Mitchell is coming back from a high ankle sprain that didn't require surgery I believe. Neyor is coming back from an ACL tear. The recovery process is shorter and better than it was even 10 years ago, but not every guy comes back at the same speed. Counting Neyor towards the purpose of "Is our WR room good enough" is a bad idea imo
  5. Jesus, even Tarp seems to be distancing himself from the (continuing) implosion "That's what they think" "they feel" etc. Almost a "Man even I can't buy this bullshit anymore, but I still have to put out something for these dipshits who pay me..." type beat Though the drug testing thing doesn't really surprise me. I'd figure most teams would do that - no reason to test really. Kinda like pro leagues that made it super obvious when they were drug testing - they don't want you failing the test either
  6. Unfortunately I don't, it was on a general college football discussion thread. Think it was in a topic about them getting the Mizzou WR (Levett? Idr the spelling) and some Jawja fans mentioned it. I'll try to find it And yeah, I forgot to mention he's not actually in the portal yet. Sounds like he'd be a guy we tampered (but not by the actual definition of the rule) with. He'd fit the big WR mold we're missing so I'm here for it lol
  7. Some Georgia fans mentioned they were hearing we were targeting AD Mitchell as a potential portal guy. He's been hurt most of this year and he doesn't exactly have stats, but they seemed to really want to keep him and were upset at the news, so who knows. Does have the big body frame we're missing at the WR position, but I'm guessing we're waiting for a bigger name to come up. Hadn't seen him mentioned here, but maybe he was awhile back and I just didn't see https://247sports.com/Player/Adonai-Mitchell-46085140/
  8. Jordan Hall? Says he's committing tomorrow. Don't see it being him but he's the only DLine from Florida besides Damon Wilson I can remember us pursuing really Guessing it's Moore/Scott
  9. He's also been injured and everytime he came back this season the dude got hurt again. I wouldn't count him imo since he's still nursing various hamstring related maladies I believe
  10. I think they're definitely a bit more blatant about it, and often the dudes they do tamper with are big names so it gets more attention (Caleb Williams, Addison, attempting w/ Worthy) Can't really comment on the amount of tampering though. Don't really pay much attention since everyone is doing it
  11. I thought the same thing when I saw one of the screenshots where they said they'd be fine with 3* LBs because "Baylor, TCU, and KSU" do well with them. Guess the Big 12 ain't so bad all of a sudden! I'd be surprised if they grabbed both + Grimes tbh. Ideally they get Grimes and not Muhammad. Can't see them pulling 3+ good starters (Grimes isn't one obv) from the portal with the absolute clusterfuck their entire program is (well, more than usual)
  12. An OSU fan said they've heard A&M for him. Dunno if they're getting him confused with Cobb or if A&M just decided to try to nab OSU's entire roster
  13. So they have 3 candidates who'd take the job now? Then either 1) They're dogshit OCs and even Jimbo's blind ass knows it, and they're hoping someone else will jump in the search that's better Or, more likely 2) Looch is totally full of shit
  14. The safety is no longer coming from what I understand from previous discussion. Or at least based off statements they've made
