August 20, 20196 yr Popular Post Would you guys see value in adding a simple page dedicated to which recruits signed for which class and on what day + star rating and a link to their thread or that class years thread?Â
August 20, 20196 yr Yes. Would it just be signees, or would it include guys who commit, the date, and their ranking at the time of commitment and any ranking changes as they occur?
August 20, 20196 yr All information is welcome... Especially if it is pinned at the top would be great to have each with a link to their 247 and hudl pages Edited August 20, 20196 yr by Laxtonto
August 20, 20196 yr So guessing just a resource page similar to below link, with no comments from Surly posters on that page/thread?? (Like a snapshot page) https://247sports.com/college/texas/Season/2020-Football/Commits/  My answer is YES!! Thx. 🤘 Edited August 20, 20196 yr by LTtxfan
August 20, 20196 yr I’d appreciate if it had our own recruiting stories.  Maybe you should hire a guy...  come to think of it, I know a guy.  Best in the business....  last I heard, he was running a highly successful Facebook group.
August 21, 20196 yr Yes. Less reason for tourists and The Casuals to ask dumb questions. Great idea man. Â
August 21, 20196 yr I'm on board - as long as the page starts with a detailed description of what CB stands for.

August 21, 20196 yr I can help, but I'll note this seems like the kind of thing @Machinator was forged for.
August 21, 20196 yr Author We'll have a group of people that can help - just don't want any randos being able to edit it though. So rosters + recruits for football to start is what we'll do. Links to their respective threads and a link to the tweet/video of their commitment. I don't really like the idea of stars, do we want to come up with something else exclusive to surlyhorns how we rank them?
August 21, 20196 yr As long as I have a place to give the finger to aggy. Also errbody else whose ass we kick in crootin'. Â

One thought: Have a panel of our self-appointed surly recruiting experts rate them on floor (not ready, contributor, star, e.g.), ceiling, and overall take urgency (pass, depth, take, hold a spot, e.g.). Assign numeric values to the ratings.
August 21, 20196 yr I nominate @Hank Scorpio to write insurmountably positive articles about how every single news event shows how our program is surging and that we are still probably leading for each recruit. Â No facts shall dissuade him. so basically our version of Lucci.

August 21, 20196 yr Will there be a 'Kate' alert when there's a new Texas commit for users who've subscribed to the thread? Â
