I'm circling back to notifications and say these two. What am I supposed to be doing with these?

I think they are referencing some forgotten post of yours where you referred to Parker Livingstone as a Jag....or Alan Jackson...

    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.

Man, as much as I love Signing day, I fucking hate all the football board fucks forcing their shitty takes on us.

You can be fine with Hampton flipping all you want, but I despise the premise. Fuck Nick Saban and Alabama. Losing Hampton and saying "ah, well, no big deal", at this point, would be really fucking irritating to witness from people here. 

Getting Smith would be great and all, but I don't measure pleasure in college sports through the lens of aggie tears. Those are nice and all, but that won't make me feel better about losing Hampton or Wingo.

Ignoring the red flags, culture fit, flakiness, and potential to piss in the pool that is locker-room culture, how much fun would it be to see Stewart catch 2 TDs and return another one in the first quarter at Kyle Field. You'd fucking love it. Admit it. Just fucking admit it

Thought you were incredibly unimpressed/disliked the Hampton signing- this about a jihad against Saban?  As far as I’m concerned any effort he expends (like the headcase last year) on a guy we don’t really want is fine with me. 
I’m all aboard the Alabraska theme and have said that for 18 months or so now- Texas is gonna get over on them and marginalize them over the next 5-20 years- they just aren’t on my radar. Maybe I’m just an idiot but I’ve got a decent track record on seeing around corners on some of this shit. 

I thought Saban was done too. Then he ripped off 10 wins in a row with a QB that looked like shit, figured out how to maximize that QB's natural abilities, defeated the two-time defending national champs and are in the college football playoffs. The Death Knell of Saban was premature.

If anyone, it was Livingstone we were taking for granite.

Who is putting up the signs?

They're digital billboards possibly on a rotation. So you just send the company a digital image. I'd suspect the AD is sending them out. Not that expensive but pays back big time on perception and cool factor for the kids.

Boromir killed off plenty of the Uruk-hai after the first arrow, but the writing was on the wall. No clue if it'll end up being an accurate analogy, just want to start an LOTR tangent if possible.

there was a lot of talking here about Kobe Black and his position, Bobby just said he was a "true corner" for what that's worth

I am pretty happy with how the corner room is going to look next year. Will be somewhat young but the pure talent is as good as its been in a while.

Muhammad, Holmes, Brooks, Mack, Black, Wilson, maybe Roberson depending on where they move him.

I am fine with Parker Livingstone being taken as one of the last guys in the class. I remember making jokes this summer to rile people up calling him Jaggy McJaggerstone, I guess. More power to him if he does well at Texas. If he doesn't, I'll just add him to references of Dustin Miksch and Clint Haney the next time we take an iffy white WR recruit and root for handwringing defending that take.

Also, I saw Garth Brooks in concert at the Colosseum in Vegas last weekend. He was doing various covers and threw out an Alan Jackson reference for a brief moment. I'd be lying if I said my right eye didn't start to twitch.

Why didn’t they just fly on the eagles to get Wingo’s LOI?

Losing Wingo would suck but grabbing Stewart would be a great consolation prize. You just know he'll catch the game winning TD at kyle next year, sending the ags into full meltdown.

Game-winning TD? I think it's more likely we blow them out 77-0 than it being a one-score game. Their program is circling the toilet right now.

What am I missing on Livingstone? 6'4" runs a 4.4 40 and is white? 

Sounds like a poor man's Jordy Nelson starter kit

Ain't no way this man just tried to yoink Wingo at the last second, and is now playing the victim because he lost.

Sounds kind of bitchy for a coach in a state that literally passed an NIL law to benefit his team.....

He was also clocked at 22.4 mph.  Worthy's top speed this year was 22.7 mph.

Don't understand the Livingstone chatter. Dude's legit - size, speed, hands. He's that receiver that Texas always faces that we struggle covering.

I have not given any thought to Stewart doing anything at Texas since December of 2022. Fuck that guy. And no, I don't derive a lot of value from bad things happening to ATM. I enjoy the threads here about their idiocy, but they're a quaternary thought, at best, in my mind when it comes to any given Saturday. Texas beating and embarrassing ATM, in and on any field, is always gratifying, but it's also a divine right. It should be a given.

Yup. If he’s Drake Stoops, he’s a great take.

If he’s Jordan Shipley, he’s an amazing take.

One thing is for sure. If Livingstone is a true 6'3, he's definitely not little bitty...

For someone who doesn't give any thought to Stewart you sure do get triggered when someone mentions Stewart.

With Bobby Burton and that Ray guy both showing up on Surly this week, it reminds me that everyone involved with Texas football reads Surly. I’d bet Dustin Miksch and Clint Haney are reading Surly right now.

Yup. What most folks don't realize is that as Livingstone is cruising along at 22.4 mph he's simultaneously doing a whole bunch of coaching on the field.

Here in the real world, a 6'4+ guy with good hands and high speed is a take. That's a great deal where I come from.

Also the lunch pail slows him down at least 1 mph so you have to factor that in

Bussey is undefeated

Yup. If he’s Drake Stoops, he’s a great take.
If he’s Jordan Shipley, he’s an amazing take.

Do us all a favor and never disrespect The Ghost ever again by mentioning anyone in the same breath as him, let alone a fucking Stoops.
