Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
I think the best part about this post is "You'll be worshipped a fraction as much in Austin." Maybe, just maybe, normal people don't actually want to be worshipped by a bunch of slack-jawed, cultish freaks whose brains collectively stopped developing at the age of 12.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out
This is the last I'll say on the topic because I don't want to belabor the point or hijack the thread, but I was clearly being facetious comparing our DL to Texas State. However, I think it's entirely reasonable to (a) question Sark's commitment to defensive line recruiting relative to the efforts he spends on other positions, (b) question the merit of his approach to roster building with respect to the defensive line and (c) question whether Kenny Baker was the right hire for the right time. I'm of the opinion that having a DL like we had last year is incredibly important and that we should be allocating resources to recreate that, even if it's at expense of premium players at other positions. I also think Kenny Baker could end up being a tremendous coach, but the only real data points we have right now are him not landing the premium DT targets out of the portal or in high school. You can rightly say that happened because of his lack of college recruiting contacts/built in relationships and track record, but those are all things Sark knew when he was hired. Not in any way saying I don't think Sark is up for the job, but if you aren't concerned about our DL room and/or don't want to place any blame on the coaching staff you have your head in the clouds.

Because they visited Texas while Kenny Baker was the defensive line coach and they currently play football for teams that are not Texas.

The same Baker that struck out on Damonick Williams and Jay Toia in the spring? If the standard is competing for SEC and national championships, we need to have a defensive line room that stacks up with Georgia, Michigan and Alabama. It's not even necessarily Baker's fault, Sark has landed a grand total of 1 composite top 200 DL in his tenure and a whopping 3 high school DL recruits in the past two recruiting classes. He's had NIL for the past three recruiting classes and we've seen no improvement in DL recruiting.

Sark going with the reverse Jimbo Fisher strategy. Badass team of five stars with the Texas State Bobcats defensive line.

OU Recruiting 2025: Truck Balls and Broken Dreams
So they are extending a coach that, by my count, is 2-7 against ranked teams in his two years as head coach and 0-2 in bowl games. He was going into year 3 of a 6 year contract, so it's not like this was hanging over his head. His two years are inarguably the worst two OU seasons since 2015 and trending toward the three worst seasons in the past ten years with the schedule they have this year. However, OU fans insist that he's changed the culture from that sissy Lincoln Riley football that resulted in NY6 games basically every year. This is so awesome.

Love the "College Ready Build" award. Congratulations on being the closest to physically maximized while winning none of the awards that have anything to do with playing quarterback.

Hell, they'll even talk shit if they just see you wearing longhorn apparel in public. It's happened to me several times while traveling, including in the airport a few weekends ago. I was trying to work at an airport bar and some husky middle-aged Aggie started chirping. I always respond with genuine confusion.

If only Tashard Choice had 5 of his RBs drafted in the past two drafts, including the first RBs taken in the past two.

Gerry reporting that Troy Huhn has not received an invite to the July pool party and he and CJ both noted that they'd be surprised if our 2026 QB does not commit prior to the pool party. Doesn't take much reading between the lines to deduce that they expect Dia Bell to be the guy.

2025 DT Brandon Brown
Been following this (evidently not closely enough) and keep seeing mention of his brother. Why on earth would we need to set up virtual meetings with him - is he a prospect as well?

I'm not overly concerned about Lacey v. Russell because it appears Sark has his choice of the two and prefers Lacey. That may ultimately prove to be the wrong decision, but given this isn't a make or break QB class for us, I'm not sweating it if Sark has made his evaluation. Particularly since I think we'll get another stud in the 2026 class.

This is shaping up to be like one of those recent Ohio State WR classes where we're basically guaranteed to have multiple 1st round WRs on the roster each year. Dakorien Moore and Jaime Ffrench would be absolutely obscene. Combine with junior Arch and Johntay Cook, sophomore Wingo... holy hell.

This guy would be an amazing fit on our current roster. Watched him a lot last year and was impressed.

I am not saying those are the only games that I'm worried about, I'm saying those are the games where I think our potential weakness in the interior is an elevated level of concern.

Yes, I stand by what i said in context. That's the only game, aside from Georgia which is just concerning generally, where I'm particularly worried about our interior defensive line being exposed. They won the Joe Moore award two years running and had a terrific OL again last year. I'm not quite ready to say their OL will be weak next year, as they've reloaded each year recently, and Donovan Edwards is a very good back.

It only really gives me heartburn in the Michigan matchup, particularly since that's so early in the year. We've seen that team win games without passing the ball, but I'm hoping that's gone out the door with Harbaugh.

Great get for OU at a position of need, but I don't really get breaking the bank like this for a one year rental when this gets you from an 8 win team to a 9 win team, maybe?
