Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls

Byron murphy? Murphy is a try hard, 6’1” DT with short arms. NFL scouts, gms, and size queens are going to hate murphy. Let I remind you Poona ford went undrafted. And you think he’s the first longhorn defender off the board?

So you have a ‘shroom guy. She’s the hookup. Otherwise I’ll bet you 10k right now that Murphy isn’t the first dude off the board. 
 

 

Poona had freakishly long arms and he still went undrafted. I think Murphy is a dawg, but yeah, NFL teams are going to hate his measurables.

  • 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

    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.

Murphy will go before Ewers, because 2024 comes before 2025.

Sweat will be the first Longhorn drafted in 2024.

I thought they ended the draft

What happened to Raiola's ranking and all those on their knees waiting for him to unzip his mom pants? They were all proclaiming he would be better than Arch, and he's a 4 star now on On3 lulz. Even that shit site ESPN has him ranked as a 91, compared to Arch as a 93. Ultimately rankings are for bragging rights only, but I can't help but laugh that all of the sudden the next TD Jesus isn't t a 5 star plus. I wonder if it has anything to do with him playing for 4 different high schools in 4 years, or if they don't view him as a prodigy like Manning?

Dude ... calm down.

 

- #1 QB by 247/ESPN/Rivals; #4 by On3

- #5 overall recruit in the 247 composite

- Top 10 overall by 3 out of 4 services

- On3's #34 pulls him down to #13 overall in their industry ranking

Right, but I'm saying Arch got a perfect rating and a few people began with Raiola will be better than Arch. It's weird how he went from better than Arch to not even being a 5 star plus. I'm wondering what happened between then and now?

I guess you were too busy, I don’t know, fighting wars or something, to recognize somewhat obscure lines from one of the comedic masterpieces of the 20th century/Murray canon.

Correction: Murphy will go before any other longhorn player. 
 

Also, it’s just one guy, Ousux.

If you are referring to his movie Stripes, I was too busy watching the hotties and the outstanding military strategies to listen to whatever he said. My bad.

True but he married Maureen O'Hara I believe 4 times in 2 different countries so that's probably a wash.

The Duke lost to Bruce Dern and people hated Dern for the rest of his career for it.

Yeah, personally I think he'll be good at Georgia, but prodigy he is not. I was just surprised all the hate Arch still gets just because he chose Texas. It's baffling, especially seeing idiots that were proclaiming that he would be a bust and Raiola was this superman. But had Manning chose literally anywhere else he would be talked about as the next Joe Burrow. Only at a place like Texas with a qb guru would morons proclaim he's a bust and only his name got him that ranking. Now people are moving Raiola down, and now it's Arch will transfer, so he's good again...until he doesn't transfer and then he sucks.

and he deserved it. You don't kill the Duke. That's also why everyone hates cancer.

Bruce Dern was very concerned about this, and John Wayne told him he would get better roles because of it.  And Wayne was correct, Dern has had an amazing career.  His looks were never going to allow him to be a leading man, elite character actor was always his ceiling.  And he achieved elite.

Took two tries.

Bruce got him in The Cowboys.

I see that was anticipated. I think Dern already had a healthy career. Obviously, I'm a big fan.

Bruce did get  the lead in "Middle Age Crazy".  IMDB doesn't think much of the movie, but I'm pretty sure I saw some tittays so my young self gave it high marks at the time.

I have a soft spot for the title song from that movie, sung by Jerry Lee Lewis

I believe the Duke beat cancer 2 times before the last batch got him.

 

Love Dern as an actor.  His character in Diggstown is always great.

 

Plus the greatness that is Nebraska
