I haven’t seen the clip myself, so someone should fact check this, but I heard that Ian Boyd asked Ewers, at Big 12 Media Day yesterday, if he felt like Worthy quit on the team during games last season. 

If he did that, credit to him for asking a non-softball question, I guess. It’s just another example of guys that cover UT sports not actually giving one fuck about casting UT in a positive light, though. 

I’ve always assumed the IT poster base was better than the other $9.95er bases, but apparently posters there clamor for Ian Boyd content. It is a dark, dark commentary that Surly is the Internet oasis for decently intelligent longhorn fans.

Finally can tell my aggy story.    Have a good insight into this kids recruitment and I’m still laughing about his visit to aggy. Dude gets his player host (I’ll let y’all find who that is) and

How do you think this is helpful? Not being a jerk, just asking y'all to keep your shit together and use common sense. In any event, I know for a fact that nothing ever happens with Texas until a

He could have if he isn't. Play devil's advocate and tell us why you feel about this guy's overall approach to his recruitment and how that either translates to the next level or doesn't matter.

He asked " what do you find was the disconnect when you were trying to find Xavier Worthy" 9:40 mark at the end. Obviously someone didn't like the question.

Some folks also think if we get McKinley Robinson would bounce. 

You’re not alone. I came to post the same thing. I think when he got to 85 he became the most offered kid in history. Not that it helped him in College Station. 

Hines should have had only 57.

e: @Getafix beat me to it, including the screenshot

let me introduce you to Anthony Hines, who sought out offers:

Its a lot of offers, but I am always a fan of a recruit that has officially visited LSU, Ohio State, Texas, Georgia, and Florida. It's fair to assume when your official visits look like that, your offers are legit.

i know we like to make fun of Ian, but there was nothing wrong with that question.     The way he phrased it wasn't really even a "gotcha" question, there are plenty of ways to answer that.    And hey, you want to get paid like a professional, well you sometimes get questions that aren't just "whats the best part about being in austin and running through zeta sluts"

So Robinson committing here would push McKinley to ou?

No. Other way around (well, not to OU)

Tex has it. McKinley is likely a late cycle commit, certainly after Robinson. Him hopping on board might make Robinson bounce.

If I'm reading this correctly, Embody thinks we're running 4th, behind LSU, A&M, and OU? Seems like a massive disconnect between his info and our guys. I always expect there to be a little difference, but that seems too big to chalk up to "difference of opinion."

Jabba the Ketch couldn't make it because of the weight restrictions at jerry world. 

Quinn probably doesn’t need to worry about running into Ketch unless he wonders too close to the deli counter at Walmart.

…..he also said that LSU really didn’t have the info that Texas has….so, really….he don’t know and is just blowing smoke.

How come it always seems like we’re in this if we get recruit a we can’t get recruit b or recruit b will not come?

....because recruits like playing in real games and playing in real games is harder if there's a bluechip in the same class as them that does what they do?

So Clemson, Georgia, Alabama, A&M, Ohio State don’t take multiple people at same position? Especially at a rotational position like DT coupled with the PT we have expected for 2024

We take multiple people at the same position all the time as well. You just notice this phenomenon when it happens at Texas because it's the team you follow closely.

Ian trolling OU fans is entertaining. They fucking hate him with a passion.
