  1. Didn't Riley fuck up with Raleek Brown, too? There was something about the Mater Dei coaches not trusting him.
  2. You're thinking about this all wrong. The "reason" almost certainly has to do with watching at least some of the season shake out. That's good for Texas at this point. But if it wasn't good for Texas, would you want a 5* decommitting in November? He's reportedly a silent, is cancelling OVs to other schoold, and the only other serious contender left is sheep fucking their way into another 6+ loss season. The less distance between public commitment to Texas and signing with Texas, the better.
  3. And is THRILLED to be there
  4. "Let the Bama fans talk" is literally the Finebaum brand.
  5. That Regents has a qb recruit at all is wild. The Brydon's were family friends, so we used to go to their 6-man playoff games and that was fuuuuun football.
  6. How have we not talked about this https://247sports.com/Player/Reggie-McNeal-Jr-46115510/
  7. Just a reminder that the power spread hasn't won anything meaningful since 2014, and the wildcat has never won anything. While that may be where Milroe would be best utilized, Saban knows he can't win a championship that way, conference or otherwise.
  8. Checkers, my man. If championships are the measuring stick, start flight tracking Geno Auriemma. Truthfully, I've got my eyes peeled for the Briles test balloon. It's inevitable.
  9. Y'all are so silly. They're going to fire Jimbo and immediately land their top target for his replacement, Dan Mullen.
  10. May he ever reign
  11. Gipson, Wingo, Baker, and Black would rank us 3rd in the current 247 team rankings with a 285.91. uga and fOSU are uncatchable at this point, and bama is currently sitting at 277 so they'd be ahead or in striking distance. On3 drops some of the bottom of the class when it does team rankings to negate class size disparity. IF we close these 4, we would probably rank higher in that model.
  12. Reasons not to freak out No mods on any site have entered new picks, or flipped their existing picks afaik. Fong reiterated Texas over the field this morning. McKinley is a 5* DT and the finalists include baggy, blOitalloninteriorlinemenU, a perennial playoff team, and hometown favorite LSU. This was always going to get more interesting before it ended. Wake me up if the picks start flipping
  13. If we land McKinley, between '23/'24 we'll have stolen 3 of the top 4 LA prospects from swamp aggy. That's crazy considering, but may become the new norm if they can't pull NIL together in a meaningful way. LSU will load up on in-state 4-15, and it will be open season for the top 3.
  14. This warrants more discussion from people who know what the hell they're talking about Is it possible to establish a governing body through an existing entity? Say...the SEC? Other than facilitating the contractual obligations of member states, are there any restrictions on other activities they participate in? or regulate? At initial glance, this strikes me as the most legitimate and probable replacement for the NCAA at the P5 level. That said, I don't know shit about fuck, so...
  15. I would be a proponent of tying NIL payouts to LOI, even if that allows LOIs to be signed ad hoc. Payouts before signing puts the prospect in a really weird position. There are plenty of reasons to decommit between 9/1 and 12/20, even if they committed with the intention of shutting it down. These are teenagers.
  16. Deandre Moore is from Los Alamitos, but went to Bosco. Recently, both Makai Lemon and Malachi Nelson attended Los Alamitos, and the team is ranked 16th in the preseason California top 25 (headlined by Mater Dei). '24 blOU TE commit Davon Mitchell goes there.
  17. Is Congress going to pass good NIL legislation? No, we can't even get rid of daylight savings. Is the wild west good for Texas? Also, no. If schools are afforded advantages by their state legislatures, that's bad for Texas. Is the ability to pay players legally better than holding our nose and doing it illegally on rare occasions? Hell yeah.
  18. You're missing the value of NIL to Texas entirely. The bag man peddles raised funds from private donors. If that was also true of NIL, you'd have a case, but it's not. The value for Texas is a) legitimizing paying players and b) the incredible amount of opportunity to raise public money compared with the other 95% of schools. There will always be more money in NIL, regardless of school, than a bag man could offer. If federal legislation ensures a fair playing field, the bag man is moot. Again, the bag man can not offer the same amount of money that NIL can. They can only pander to immediacy of the bag. While it's unlikely that the federal government will be able to create and pass meaningful NIL legislation, it would be a net benefit to regulate when athletes can first be paid, what ability states have to advocate for prospects to stay in state, etc. There is significantly more value to Texas in setting a floor for how the big money works than trying to punish the small money.
