Another thing I don't understand about aggy is why Moose Muhammad is not playing more. If he jumps in the portal, we should be all over that. He would kill it with Sark.

If you're curious how their highly-ranked DT class compares to Texas' through two games:

7 snaps.  You'll find him way down at the bottom of this list of DT's (no min snaps):

He looks really fast.  They obviously sold him on the "be the next Achane" and that's pretty much what he is doing -returning kicks and catching screens.

Yeah, Owens looked like a really good player. 

Owens looked great in the pass game. Fast, good route runner, soft hands. I don’t remember him getting many carries though.

It's a shame the OL looked like trash in the pass game... real shame

Owens has to get the ball on the perimeter to make plays, running him behind their OL is a recipe for disaster.

Owens was targeted 5 times, caught 3. One was for 25 yards, another for 10, the other -1.

Vernon Broughton being ahead of Walter Nolan is hilarious.

 

Not really apples to apples when comparing juniors and seniors to a true freshman and sophomore. I'm pretty sure Nolan and Hicks have a standing welcome mat to portal over.

Sarkisian and Co. are extremely focused on culture-building. There is a widely held view internally, which I think many of us share and the media frequently and ignorantly sort of vaguely blathers about, that the program was a victim of long term culture rot, started during the Mack Brown era. 

Accordingly, they are very thorough in how they go about putting together a viable list of targets that might visit the portal. They do it down to the point that there are other programs in which they might not consider any transfer from because of the perceived internal issues for it. 

I assume that Texas would be highly skeptical of any transfer coming out of ATM at this point. Maybe Bryce Anderson or a freshman. I doubt they would have one iota of interest in guys like Nolan. Anyone just transferring for their next payday while they smoke weed in their apartment and skip school would not be a consideration.

If you’re only looking at talent alone, then sure. But in reality, I doubt it. Nolan and Hicks will be looking for a shitload of money, and they haven’t come close to proving they’re worth it. The money is likely to be spent better elsewhere.

What's the explanation for Hall and Billingsley? That they had prior relationships with them so they felt they could handle them?

umm quick follow up coach.    Since you knew that could be a problem with that stadium design and logo issue, what did you guys do to make sure the team didn't slip and slide the whole day?  And why didn't it work.

He can’t help himself. “If ATM wins …”

ATM is not an “it” school. They’ve had a pitch this cycle of money, playing time, and a resurgence. Ironically, they’ve done a good job of leaning into the “we’re not a flash program. we’re a wholesome, quality school in a peaceful part of this crazy world” part of their pitch for recruits for whom that would appeal. 

That all sits on a knife’s edge, given how down the media is on them, how unhealthy their team culture is, and how shitty they look on the field. I think they’re staring down the barrel of another 5-7 and the whole class could fall apart with that kind of record.

Yeah, I think so. I think there’s some notion that they’d have a better chance “helping” those guys now, as well. “Too early”.  

Whatever was going on with Savion Red this off-season was supposedly giving off the same vibe and they were able to better manage that. 

My personal view is that Hall isn’t fixable. Sort of like Robert Timmons, back in the day. The all world talent causes coaches to convince themselves that they can help the guy, but he has no interest in being helped.

I imagine that timing in the program plays a role in that as well.  Texas was likely more willing to take a chance last year and especially a couple of years ago then they are now that this thing seems to be rolling and there is less desperation.

Talk about glossing over your new 5-star recruit casually visiting his home town school the week after committing.  I'm sure there's nothing to see there.

I noticed in Sark's presser (maybe this was discussed on the football board), that he went out of his way to praise Savion Red and his work on the scout team the past week while he played the role of Jalen Milroe.

It reminded of your mention during spring practice about how the coaching staff loves to make public statements that are in actuality a message sent to players or the team as a whole. This smelled like that to me, and it proves how savvy Sark is in the psychological part of coaching and motivating players.

When you're having to choose between guys like Agiye/Billingsley versus the guys from the A&M WR haul (a backup from Grand Valley State and a UTEP receiver that spurned A&M and went back to UTEP) , you grab the talented headcases. 

But, now that we seem to have a fully stocked WR room and some cachet, we can be more selective.

Contrast this with Jimbo referring to players by their jersey number during Saturday’s post game presser.

A transcription of Jimbo's comments about the field being slick:

“Ah, maybe we had the wrong cleats. I don’t know. I mean the middle of the field did slip, but they know they had the same guys we did. I know I notice Conner a couple times actually he was getting ready to throw and his feet went out from under him. And that happen. And what you’ll happen a lot of times, when you play teams that have different logos, in other words I say multiple teams played a sport, they change that logo out. Well, when they do that, they change, that grass has to be interchanged, so that’s usually (snaps finger) done on a very quick, uh, and then plus their stadium… those stadiums that have that half, uh, (builds house with his hands) and don’t get the sunlight and the dry out and you had the rain, and plus uh, and you’ll wet that part to make that grass take, and it makes that slick. And then they’ll paint on the emblem. And when you have to take stadiums, and my history of it, always do that, you’ll have a lot of that some of those issues occasionally in that situation and that seemed to what happened.”

Loochador pod isn't worth your time. Billy spends an hour trying to convince himself the offense can carry the defense and salvage a good season. Shocker, he gets there. 

Speak for yourself… At about 20:40, Billy invites his haters “hiding behind pseudonyms” on Twitter to bring their ass into the Texags studio to debate him lol.

Always good to get your state of recruiting from a parent of a commit.

1.  You still owe a lot of folks on Surly a foot race, sir.

2. Pretty sure 95% of them still do this on a near daily basis, which is why you'll probably still win a lot of them.

Their offensive line is as bad as everyone expected. 

They averaged 3 yards a carry from their RBs and that was against a Miami DL missing 3 starters in the 2nd half. The aggy OL can't block in the run game or pass pro. The only reason this wasn't a 25 point Miami win is because aggy was able to pass the ball in the 2nd half due to less pressure which was simply because Miami's DL was missing 3 starters.

This shit is so bad it seems fake.

Well if @closetojumpingis right the aggy staff has set this up on a tee. 

If they've been telling recruits "watch Sark fail and watch how good we are" they deserve this sabotage. If you're going to negative recruit other schools you better then back it up on the field.

Miami also spotted them 14 points on STs blunders in the 1st half.

He nearly caught #0 from behind on the kick return, but ran out of yards.

In the highlights I didn't see him much from the late 3Q on.

I forgot that Anderson fucked over the Texas staff last winter. Reached out and asked if he could transfer, got confirmation, said he'd be there and then got moneywhipped and guilted by ATM. Texas eventually sorted its needs anyway, but it pissed them off.
