  • 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.

How about “Let’s get Bussey!”

arsenio hall whoop whoop GIF by CMT Artists of the Year

Maybe some 2 Live Crew, "Heeeeeeyyyy, we want some Bussey!"

If Hampton does indeed flake again, I would rather we not try and flip bussey late. Instead, go "fully armed and operational battle station" on Ryan Williams. 

Fuck Saban

....but even if he was, it's all right

I saw him at the grocery store the other day. He’s a clear 6’5” in crocs.

Subtract 1" for the hoodie he was certainly wearing.

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

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

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

There isn't a single poster on this board rooting against the guy. If he comes to Texas and lays waste to the record books, awesome. If he's an annoyingly (to our opponents) productive 3rd or 4th option, cool. If he's a glue guy that everyone likes on the team, fine. If he portals in a year because he'll never sniff the field, no big deal. Texas invested very little (to zero) time, NIL and energy in landing Livingstone and they clearly think he's worth the roster spot. There's no real opportunity cost with this signing. On top of it all, if the guy is awesome, a bunch of imbeciles on this board can mock me about it by pulling up some one-off post and scream at me about how wrong and mean I was. 

That all considered, there are some people super excited about getting the guy. That part is bizarre to me and what I've enjoyed mocking at times during this cycle. There are 15+ actual badasses in this class that seem far more intriguing, but to each their own.

Parker Livingstone will become a respected professor of Middle East Antiquities.

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

Morons like you keep bringing the guy up. I said I didn't give any thought about Stewart playing for Texas. I give plenty of thought to arguing against it when the Evan Stewart clown car shows up on a thread on Surly and a bunch of you goobers file out of it and start spewing nonsense about how cool it would be for him to show up to Texas and cause locker room problems while bitching daily on social media.

Can please stop this weirdo get some “Bussey” shit before it gets started.

No. This is our lot in life. We are tied to a football board population of posters who are aggie as fuck about getting over on aggies.

Other positives: 

  • He's likely going to take whatever remains after Arch is done with Sorority Row, leaving little else for the rest of campus.
  • He will end up being a great recruiting host for some random OL, TE, or QB in three or 4 years
  • No recruit since Shipley has had a higher ranking in the "Can catch passes on a bass boat" recruiting metric

The board hasn’t been this fired up about a career depth player since Jake Oliver.

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

He gets a bad rap because he is a long strider and looks like a baby giraffe getting in and out of breaks. He ain't come here to run outs and whip routes.

Lol I love seeing fools get triggered. This is a message board where people spew bullshit all day and that includes you dumbass. How about we let sark make the call on Stewart unless you think you know more than him? 

Our job is to bs. that's what makes this place great. You really need to drink less coffee in the morning. Your username fits.

Something tells me a 6’4, 4.4 40 guy will not end up being Drake Stoops.

Even more impressive when you consider Livingstone was carrying a lunch pail while running that speed. 

While getting the DBs on the other side of the field lined up.

Few things are more productive on a bulletin board than a new guy showing up to offer advice, including gems like "your not a corchez!!?"

You will know when I'm triggered on something. Batting dipshits away from terrible takes isn't a "get triggered" thing. The "wouldn't it be so cool if Evan Stewart transferred to Texas and then caught the game-winning catch at Kyle Field next year!!!" fan fiction is the kind of unoriginal nonsense that you slapdicks are better off jacking off to in private and leaving the rest of us out of it.

Lmao priceless. Now that I see that you are triggered so easily it's going to be tough to resist.

Evan Stewart says hi.

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. 

Bobby Burton was on Surly?  I didn’t think this site would load on AOL dial-up.

I can’t fap to this.

Off topic but since lots of traffic here. Good listen.

I made a joke about Stewart catching TD passes against A&M a few weeks back, but I was assured that my take wasn't terrible. I think that post might have even gotten +1 rep, so you know it had to be good.

Hey dipshit if your gonna pick a fight with CTJ at least make it intelligent.  Take a lap and go back to the football board, we expect a higher level of competence out of our board idiots over here on the recruiting board.

Closetojumping is one of those guys who no one in his life takes seriously so he has to feel like a big man to be the content manager on a random message board. It shouldn't be so much fun to trigger him but I can't help myself.
