I can't decide if I want him to be the greatest WR in the history of the program or for him to never play a single snap.

Jake Smith and Isaiah Neyor say you can be both.

That movie was like trying to treat a fever dream with LSD.

I really hope Sarkisian is able to bring some titles home because everything else happening with this program right now is off the charts. I always figured that the 2004/2005 rosters were about the best I could ever hope to see at Texas. I no longer think that is the case. The rosters over the next few cycles, if not longer, might be the absolute best in CFB. There are no talent gaps anywhere to be found, only questions about experience and cohesiveness due to NFL departures. Great evaluators, great recruiters, great developers, and every resource that could be desired. Good shit.

Offseason chatter about the roster/starters is essentially gone, outside of one or two spots. Who is going to play nickel, and well that’s pretty much it. There have been times where the offseason talk was like “hey is there a combination of five guys we can put on the o-line who won’t embarrass the university all that much? Also who is going to play QB and TE and DT and LB and…..”

Also we no longer endlessly debating and watching G5 film on what our new O/DC is going to install to fix our offense or defense. While we also discuss how the former blue chip recruits that have regressed will be coached up like the G5 3rd round picks our new coaches had put in the league before being hired by Texas.

It will never get worst than when we were debating what it meant for our upcoming offense and season when a Garrett Gilbert led 7 on 7 team lost to Tx State.

That whole picture is AI generated. They took one trophy in the background and copied it like a million times. It wasn't even the Nickelodeon award- Liucci

"RC didn't offer" type shit. 

Is Howell really saying that A&M decided to cancel this kid's visit because they didn't want him negative recruiting A&M / working for Texas? Sure. 

If he's right, this is a fucking indictment of A&M. You know what closers want? They want to be in the room. They want that kid on campus so they can sell him. They think - fuck what anyone else has already done, I'm going to win this kid over. That's 100% what Sark would do and has been doing. Did he give up on Anthony Hill? Fuck no. He went to that dude's living room and closed the deal. If Howell is right, this means that Elko basically rolled over and admitted he can't compete with Sark and Texas. That he doesn't even want to try, because trying and failing would be a net negative. 

Born losers. Every one. 

Howell has learned from Looch how to put a spin on reality.  It's been known for a few weeks that Carlton has commitment date right after OV's.  Elko pulled a Tony "Duke" Evers and threw the damn towel.

“Along the vein”

That's just some Freudian slippage, if I've ever seen it. Someone loves running their tongue along a big ass vein. NTTIAWRT...unless you're an aggie, of course, where homophobia manages to go hand in hand with the obscene number of gloryholes.

It’s even worse than that. He said edge vein which takes, I assume, prolonged tonguing.

Probably the most positive statement I've seen, on Felix Ojo & Texas.

I wonder if Krempin is going to get the "we need to know now or never" bear hug this weekend. They're feeling their oats at every position in the recruiting class, but probably no place more than OL.

As good as he is and this is no slight on him, does Krempin's offer get put on hold for the time being given our standing with: Ojo, Turntine, Roseborough and Lee?

I hear Luicci eats his snickers vein side down for the sensation.

I'll admit I haven't watched any of Max Wright's hudl, but how does he compare to Krempin and Roseborough?  I love Robertson as an IOL take.

It almost does have that "cream rising to the top" feel, doesn't it?  Too bad, because Krempin looks super to me, but it becomes a numbers game.

Nah - no more than I missed Age of Consent or (the above) Excalibur... I mean, the woman has a filmography a mile long. Man needs an Italian spaghetti bib to watch any of her movies.

Agree. Her filmography is varied and extensive. I think this was the first film I saw with the venerable Ms. Mirren.

Has there been any more info on the house settlement and how that will or won't screw up our ability to out talent 99.5% of CFB?

I saw a ticker scroll the other day saying it had been completed or accepted by the judge but haven't heard anything since.

I think we will get real time input into what it means by watching what Oregon does.

From Wolk on the Georgia 247 site about Prothro, below. It will well and truly suck if Texas misses out on both Bowman and Prothro, both of whom would be awesome fits for what Sarkisian likes to do. I'm cheering for the Heze Kent guy, just because he's such a ridiculous giant athlete, but Texas would take Kent and one of the other two and do different things with the two. 

"He just left an official visit to Auburn, and our AuburnUndercover recruiting guy Christian Clemente sent me a very, very interesting update.

The top TE target went so far as call Georgia his leader when talking to Christian and others. He said Auburn’s in that No. 2 spot, but still has the Florida and Texas visits coming up.

For a dude that doesn’t say a whole lot, notable for him to say quite publicly that Georgia is the team to beat."

Max Wright has pretty bad feet. Michigan supposedly had a lot of interest, but personally I don’t see it. Krempin supposedly wants to play tackle. He has decent feet and could do it, but I think his greatest potential is at guard.

We will end up with the most recent TE offer from Cali.  The one who's dad is a UGC fighter I believe.  Bowman to USC sucks, Lincoln will waste the kid.  Pretty sure Bowman was even quoted in the spring about needing to see TE usage from USC.

@RGBIII had some concrete numbers that he'd heard on Bowman and the numbers both defy gravity and logic.

If that’s the case then not worth feeling bad about the miss.

They went 7-6 last year and 8-5 the year before for a reason.

I don't think I understand your intent or point with this post, so feel free to flesh it out. 

They would rather throw resources at an offensive player they won't even use than a more useful offensive player or, of course, anything on defense.

A team underachieving with top notch natural resources like that is experiencing gross roster mismanagement in my experience.

Last I heard there was already a hold due to a Title IX lawsuit being filed. That's all I got.

I was specifically told not to worry about the numbers.

When USC is giving an incoming freshman TE what some schools would equate to QB money, you let them be fucking retarded and we look for the next best thing.

I hate that the numbers are probably gonna send this kid East on I-10.  Don’t know much about him as a player, but really would’ve liked a big nasty with a closed cage facemask.  Shit is nostalgic 🤷🏿‍♂️
