Yeah the recruiting calendar drove him out of coaching. Because the calendar was hanging on the wall of Zach’s office next to pile of boxes of sex toys.
Wait. Is the implication that we need to keep Mt Vernon down? Because Baylor isn’t hiring Briles; MtV is. Landomatic said it. Politics/religion discussion is verboten here for good reason.
1. This injury is unlikely to affect his ability to play OT in 2021
2. Hopefully however it opens his eyes to the value of a Texas education over the alternatives, God forbid some other injury should limit his FB career
If aggy gets desperate enough, I could see them Hance/Leaching ol’ Jimbo out of some of that money. If otherwise harmless West Texans will do it, aggy is certainly capable.
We need USC to show some signs of life early. Nothing great, just a pulse. Last thing we need is for Urbs to get hired in time to try to salvage their 2020 recruiting class, especially at the expense of our own.
I’m in favor of this over cheating, definitely. Prior to the William Singer investigation, I’d have thought the risk of material consequences quite low. They may still be. I’m against cheating, even if everyone else cheats. Even if most people think it shouldn’t be called cheating.
Of course, maybe we should not try to think creatively about solutions to recruits’ being illegally recruited out of our backyard. The two best choices are probably just to ignore the problem or to join in the lawbreaking, counting on enforcement’s being unlikely and beatable. After all, in this information age, what are the odds that law enforcement would notice or be able to do anything about the sudden proliferation of inexplicably well-heeled athletes at Texas?
My reply was not intended to indicate that the principle thrust of the strategy should be offering the fbi evidence of unreported transactions. Surely the potential blowback onto recruits and their families suggests the power lying latent. Can it be harnessed? Not by joining the cheating; perhaps by other means yes.
I think the ideal would be a pissed off TCU or Tech grad to take the focus off us, but I can live with UT. Recently former Texas employee Michael Center says that the feds occasionally do notice the money flowing around athletics.
No. I’m all for threatening and turning in bagmen, though. There is a lot that can be done if one does not argue against it by straw man or complex question.
Paying recruits is a crime in Texas. And there’s the federal income tax. I’m not talking about turning people in to the NCAA with an eye to causing sanctions. I’m thinking more along the lines of “friendly communications” here and there to make it more uncomfortable for people to break state and federal law on our turf. An underground response to an underground problem.
