Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls
Slow work day, so update for the two people waiting with bated breath. The choppa left Longview and seems to have made a stop in the Jasper area. The site I use to track lost coverage for a stretch, so fairly certain about that but had to read tea leaves a bit. Maybe visiting Tyanthony Smith? It's now up again and on trajectory for Houston, which is where it left from this morning and where we know Sark was early in the week (visiting some Humble HS). Anyways, curious for shits and gigs to see if there are any other Twitter sightings of Sark/Gideon in Longview or Jasper today.

Think I found Sark's helicopter. If I'm right, he's now at Peachtree HS in Longview (Dealyn Evans?).

2023 Transfer Thread - Texas Capitalized, ATM Victimized
Embraer Phenom 100 (Tail No. N504TX) owned by the State of TX took off for flight from Austin to Houston right around the time Sark posted pics in question.

2020 RB Bijan Robinson
I had honestly not seen any bonafide Bijan hate until this article by hater Daniel Kelly, which was in comments to the PFF tweet above . Said hater lost any shred of credibility when I saw he was a former NFL scout....for the Jets...and his assessment is that Bijan is second-round talent that "lacks any elite traits that allows backs to create yardage" and "is not elusive enough." A few (of the many) other WTF-worthy excerpts:

UT's next basketball coach - discussion/debate [Sean Miller Hired]
Correct, according to this article: "Calipari's contract states that if the University terminates his deal then the University must pay a lofty guarantee," 247Sports wrote. "However, if Calipari voluntarily leaves, his contract states that he must give the University notice but there is no mention of a buyout or any 'liquidated damages' that he or a bidding employer must pay.

Realignment talk not going away
Have posted this trick upthread as well but, skirting paywalls for articles on The Athletic and others (e.g., ESPN+) is as simple as (1) going to Archive.ph, (2) dropping in the URL of the article, (3) hitting "save" and (4) waiting for it to process. Here's a copy-paste of the article you wanted:

Huge Piece of Shit and alleged Woman Abuser Chris Beard has been hired at Mississippi
So, reading between the lines....you're telling me there's a scenario?!

Realignment talk not going away
Full article below. And pro tip for anyone who similarly unsubscribed from The Athletic when they decided to partner with Looch: go to Archive.ph, drop in the URL of the article, hit "save" and let it do its thing. Also works for other paywalled articles (ESPN+ etc.).

That's rough, definitely sympathize. Not sure whether the book is closed on the matter but, if there's still a window, it might be worth doing your best to raise a shitstorm with shot callers within the admin faculty and exerting what influence you may have among past teachers and other parents that may be plugged in and have some political influence at the school. And if your son had a clean reputation/record prior to this, that should be leaned on heavily, as should calling into question whether the punishments beyond the bad grade itself (the club and citizenship stuff) are really fair and necessary tools for teaching what lesson is trying to be taught. Sounds like your son's HS is a private (as was mine), which I think are generally more open to considering the totally of a kid's situation and past behavior and subject to pressure/influence in this sort of situation. In my case, those things changed the outcome drastically. Anyways, last derail from me in this thread but feel free to DM me. Back to the regularly scheduled sideshow of CCB debates that will surely be resolved.

Huge Piece of Shit and alleged Woman Abuser Chris Beard has been hired at Mississippi
Happened to me second semester of senior year of HS. Turnitin.com software determined that the entirety of my (rather long) paper had something like 3-5 sentences that shared some degree of similarity (want to say 40-60%) with those of public sources. Genuinely did not intend to plagiarize, best guess is I read a ton of stuff about the subject matter online and, through simple osmosis, similar ideas and/or phrasing made their way into a few spots of my paper. Anyways, teacher was a hardass and tried to flunk me. Only through strong backlash of my parents and other teachers did he end up conceding (gave me a C-). Went on to be a corporate lawyer. So I'm paid to write and half the job involves taking agreements from past deals and tweaking portions to work for the current deal - i.e., plagiarism. Maybe that tale could serve as reason for optimism (or despair, depending on your perspective) for your son!

It's hyperbolic for emphasis, but equally absurd to taking the position that there is literally no potential audio recording that could exonerate.

Fiancée: "Chris, it has been over three years. If you don't commit right fucking now that we will go to the courthouse tomorrow and make it official, I sweater god I will send you to the courthouse myself. You want to know how? First, I'm going to beat the shit out of you best I can. Then, I'm going to call the cops while I proceed to rough myself up. When they get here, I will show them the marks and explain my version of what is about to happen - let the whole world know you're a piece of shit woman abuser. I will drag your name through the mud with everyone we know, your family, and every media outlet that will listen. I will tell the court that you are unfit to be around your teenage daughter, and apply to be her guardian. I will ruin your your career, your relationships, everything I possibly can. You will lose everything." Beard: "K. You are literally insane." Fiancée: "Last chance. I am dead serious, you muledick. [locks door behind her]." Beard: "No." [tumbling/screaming ensues]

Huge Piece of Shit and alleged Woman Abuser Chris Beard has been hired at Mississippi
Keep in mind I am not even speaking to my view on Beard's culpability or what course of action UT should take here, a few things seemed in the police report caught my attention: She provided detailed testimony on how every injury could have logically occurred, other than the bite (though this may be covered in text that got cut off). The bite was to her right forearm, and the abrasion to her right eye/temple. Bites are more typically viewed as a defensive tactic. Assuming the purported recording exists, Chris has either bugged his own house or had reason to manually prompt a recording on his phone (or some other device).

All this time and Canada STILL hasn’t fixed their internet infrastructure?! Embarrassing.- Jimbo 2023: Watch.The.Tape.
If you view Wyoming as a genuine comparison for that point/argument, and think Nebraska does not have the history and (theoretical) potential to build back a program of current tOSU-esque caliber, I think we are too far apart on foundational things here to have a worthwhile discussion.- Jimbo 2023: Watch.The.Tape.
I thought to make note of that in my last post expecting someone would bring that up as if it totally dismisses the possibility. A perennially contending Nebraska led by Matt Rhule would almost surely make poaching TX a focus (along with other national hotbeds).- Jimbo 2023: Watch.The.Tape.
Nebraska is different for many reasons. One being the fact that they used to have notable success poaching TX talent. For example, they took 29 TX recruits between 2007 and 2010. There's plenty of competition as it is both in and out of state, so let's not support the Huskers rebuilding a platform that would let them restart the tradition. Fuck 'em. If you want parity, root for Minnesota, Pitt, Miami or a slew of others we dgaf about to build a contender. - 2023 Transfer Thread - Texas Capitalized, ATM Victimized
