Funny part is by delaying his commitment and whatever paperwork was needed, he wasted 2 months of being able to capitalize on getting paid.

You can't get paid until you actually sign I thought, as in December at earliest?

  • Finally can tell my aggy story.    Have a good insight into this kids recruitment and I’m still laughing about his visit to aggy. Dude gets his player host (I’ll let y’all find who that is) and

    How do you think this is helpful? Not being a jerk, just asking y'all to keep your shit together and use common sense. In any event, I know for a fact that nothing ever happens with Texas until a

    He could have if he isn't. Play devil's advocate and tell us why you feel about this guy's overall approach to his recruitment and how that either translates to the next level or doesn't matter.

Bad timing for Mizzou to actually look like a relevant program.  Would certainly rather him go there than a traditional power.

while not perfect, Kford has them as projected underdogs to UGA, Tenn and Arkansas, 5 point favs vs South Carolina and 3.5 favorites vs Florida

I thought the way this law was written it allowed them to collect prior to signing day. I could easily be wrong though. I do know that it allows way more involvement from the staff and school officials in negotiating deals.

Shouldn’t you be changing a bedpan right now? 

I was trying to figure out what typo would autocorrect tampon to bedpan until I realized you were replying to Greenspoint.

Believe it is signing financial aid paperwork, which is non-binding and can sign at anytime? Burden putting up video game numbers won this recruitment.

Bad timing for Texas to shit the bed against OU. Perhaps we'll never know whether that tipped the scales, but it surely didn't help.

What tipped the scales was Missouri eventually coming back and telling the family that they will match any NIL offer. All things equal, the player wants to be close to home and is buying into the "keep'em in state!" mantra that Drinkwitz is espousing.

I can’t believe they look like it because when I saw the coaching malpractice against Kansas state and getting a delay penalty, I would’ve thought they lost more games. Shades of strong

Well fuck I wanted a Wingo. I did. This one really sucks. Could have been a huge piece 

True, but I'm fairly sure Texas will be able to gather some proven WR pieces from the portal with so much production at WR heading to the draft after this season. This isn't all that concerning to me.

We also have money. But at Mizzou he gets it now with their state laws.

Maybe he wants to go to Mizzou and the money is just a bonus

I took tomorrow off work so I could start day drinking early because of some of you haters :)

You think Ryan Wingo knows about the time value of money? 

I hope the portal/NIL has changed things significantly for Texas at the wr position. Because for years people have said stuff like, “Receivers are a dime a dozen in this state,” and “Not worried at all about pass catchers”. 
 

And then when a real receiver finally shows up it’s like a complete revelation.

NV vice PV, maybe he'll turn into a fiance major, lulz.

I sure hope so. We'll have practically zero experience if everybody splits. Unless you count Cain.

Fair enough but being familiar with that private school, he was surrounded by plenty of people that do.

I think you meant granite, like his commitment to us was set in stone.

So if I can be so candid, we thought we had him landed, but we didn't pay what he commanded, sure he left us stranded, Sark's search will be expanded, and we will accept what we will be handed.

You can never take a silent from an out-of-state recruit for granted. If he was 100% convinced, he would have announced it publicly or would have set an announcement date soon after.

Silents are just temporary placeholders until they make their final decision. Mizzou and Luther doing well didn't help. Can't really blame him for wanting to stay close to home given the circumstances.

aggy poisons their players minds with anti-Texas propaganda. When was the last time we got an aggy transfer?

Seems like you did, for sure. 

He's a high value out of state prospect with plenty of reasons to stay home. We did a better job than anyone else at giving ourselves a 50/50 shot, but this was never a sure thing except to the 'we gettin' errrbody' crowd.

Glass half full - recruiting ain't over yet.

I'd rather tase you.

Hudson seems to like a little attention. He's no Javonne Shepard, but people haven't been talking about him for too long.

One of the funniest parts of Orangebloods is when Anwar, the team beat writer and columnist, tries to pretend to have recruiting information.

Bleed those double eagle pricks dry

I was at an industry event about a month ago where Cody Campbell spoke.  At the end, they opened up for questions.  Only 1 question was asked "What do you think of Tech football this year?"  He laughed and said "Best 1-3 team in the nation".  Seems like a good guy.

i have massive respect for those guys doing what basically nobody else is doing at other Texas schools and stepping all the way up NIL wise to pay for a huge % of his schools NIL
