Should have kept him and Valai

team fortress 2 no GIF

dude got processed out of Bama, was the rare person to hold 3 position coach jobs in like 20ish days (Hou for ~10 days, then Eagles for 12 days then Bama)

losing him was not really losing much.

Joseph is pretty meh, but Valai? Really?

Yes, Joseph was my reason

I dm’d him my best Columbus photos from my visit there last year and I think that he had seen enough.

Just a reminder for those who have forgotten. 

No way that's Columbus.  That couch isn't on fire.

In general, much less of a red flag. I wonder if there was something behind the scenes with Raymond and wanting to rid LSU of the stench of the previous regime that was around the Title IX stuff

Athletic reported he is making $725k at Florida - USA Today had him making $460k in 2020, $570 in 2021 and set to earn $600k in 22 at LSU. got a bump from CB/Recruiting Coordinator to CB/AHC at UF

he may not have agreed with how they handled Coach O? or just not liked Kelly?

Are we gunna do this:?

There is no real discussion here. Valai is one of the worst assistants in recent memory. He is in Les Koenning, Bruce Chambers, Joe Wickline territory for me. As terrible of a year last year as we had, Joseph still flipped Terrance Brooks from tOSU, pulled in Ryan Watts, and generally is known as a good coach.

I think one of the early indicators with how well a new hire is going to hit the ground running is whether or not he decides to keep the best assistants on staff. In the post-hire honeymoon phase, it's difficult to find tangible signs of how the job is going early on, but I think that's one that fans who follow the team closely can judge relatively accurately 

Sark kept Andre Coleman so we should be good, right?

He cancelled his tOSU trip to make a return visit to us after being quoted that we “checked all of his boxes” on his visit last weekend.

Likely coming to commit. Too bad his 247 rating hasn’t caught up to how he is seen by multiple upper level programs. On3 has him a bit high in my mind, but he’s a good one.

Yep. Easily a top 200 kid in the country at a huge position of need.

Any other year.

This Manning recruitment will significantly impact our ‘22 class. 

Just how stupid do you think the Mannings are? You think every keyboard warrior on this board knows the current state of the program but the fucking Mannings could be sold a polished turd, if only we didn’t play bama? Holy fuck… Do yourself a favor and find a team bama hasn’t mopped the floor with at some point. That’s the worst case scenario, something every other team they’ve played has dealt with. Or, Texas could surprise the shit out of everyone.

Either way, Manning isn’t going to be swayed by this game. I’m confident the family knows a thing or two about football, and would be as shocked as the rest of us if the game is competitive. If he comes here, it’s because he believes in the future of Longhorn football or simply loves the place, not that some scrubs who lost at home to Kansas are suddenly going to be coached up to a national championship level team.

I have family from the area who attended the funeral. The family and whole area were really pleased and appreciative for the amount of support and the presence from UT, his teammates and the coaching staff.

He has an offer.  Also an offer from aggy.

Looks to have great feet but would have to learn linebacker

I was looking at the HUDLs of linebackers and there was so little film of reading a play or moving in coverage. Most of the film was shooting a gap and making a big hit. I think I would look at some guy like this and turn him into a linebacker https://n.rivals.com/content/prospects/2023/jayden-bonsu-280031  . I assume that is what GP does.

That’s so he never has to throw across his body.

I had a dream last night that Arch committed to Bama this weekend on his visit. Can you imagine how unbearable this site would be for like the next 9 months if that happened?
 

Also, I think I might pay too much attention to recruiting.

Alabama is having quite a few Texas targets visiting this weekend.

Was Gillette on campus earlier this week?

Always got the two of them mixed up tbh. IIRC Marcus was a very solid college player, no?

Engrossed with what happens combined with feeble understanding of the product.

This is the sweet spot for internet posters.

No. Bob did.
Gullette was on campus earlier this week, Thursday I believe. At Bama this weekend, he’s got family from there. If they push hard, he’s probably going there.
