    Thanks. I have been on the boards since 1997 when I was a student at Texas. We've spent decades as fans and board patrons feeling powerless to create any real change. The Internet, social media,

    I work closely with a certain previously committed 5 star QB's father (hint: its Quinn Ewers, for those who haven't been following recruiting closely like I have) and chatted with him a bit this after

What does a blowout loss to Arkansas do to us? 

What the hell do you think newy? This is the worst thing that could have happened. We can't even beat a bad sec team will be used against us

I hope A&M leaves us some decent leftovers.

To be fair they look like hot dog shit as well.

Who gives a shit? Quit thinking like an ag. They won we didn't it's not a moral victory that they looked like shit. Have we stopped so low that a shitty win for them is a win for us?

Ah the bipolar nature of the recruiting board....

 

It's a long season and this team is a project.

They have a great defense. Oline actually moves people. Henson is a great oline coach. They just have a question mark at QB right now. But the overall level of physicality A&M plays with is night and day compared to us. It will be apparent when they spank Arkansas in 2 weeks.

They had 2/3 phases perform today and got a win. 
 

we had 0/3 phases perform today and got our asses fed to us. 
 

it’s a noticeable difference.

They looked like absolute shit. I’m in a house full of ags in Florida right now and they are not optimistic about the rest of the year, nor should they be. But yes we also suck.

Need our OL to play like studs today regardless.
Uhh...should have informed them of this roughly 7 hours ago, ideally this past Monday.

I posted a few days ago that I thought this was the single biggest game of the year from a recruiting perspective. SEC opponent with the incoming move, early in the season when Sark's perception is still being set, etc.

Yikes. Hopefully we hang on to most of our commits but I wouldn't expect many more top guys to jump onboard. Basically nothing to hang our hat on from this game on either side of the ball.

When hot dogs shit, do they wipe their buns?

I’m sorry, it’s been a long night.

The promise of early playing time? 
 

But yeah, this game basically lived up to every negative stereotype of our program over the last 11 years.

We're in game 2 of a new coach's term. Obviously we're not as good out of the gate as we hoped, but we're going to win 3 straight and be 4-1 going into the OU game.

All good perspective, but this was our one shot at an SEC team and it will be used against us on the trail. I’m also not ready to pencil in TCU as a win just yet.  

#32041

Stewart saw everything he needed to last night so he isnt coming.   I'd like to think literally any linemen in the country would want to come here knowing they can start right away, because ours is pure recycled shit, but then again why would you come here?  i'm thinking 2-3 decommits by Dec easily, maybe we grab some low 3's to back fill

TCU is gonna make us their bitch again, unfortunately.

OL play has to be fixed before anyone of us can feel confident against any team with warm bodies on the DL.

When you have shit talent in an area that makes your team shitty, the way to convince better talent to come play for you is to buy them. Selling early playing time on a bad team doesn’t resonate.

Random recruiting thought - why does Texas always wind up with the busts or jaggers from Lake Travis? Can we not score one of their guys that can actually or something?

Card seemed so slow and indecisive last night. When he did try and escape the pocket, more often than not he ran directly into the pressure.

#32047
Nobody cares if it means they will come here and get whooped and never develope. 

I’m not going to defend the staff after last nights utter failure at every level, but it’s way too early to judge whether they’re being developed.
#32048

Yeah, I hate losing, but what I hated  even more was the lack of effort. They were ready to play, and we were absolutely flat. I’ll have to (gulp) rewatch some of the shitshow to verify, but off the top of my head, the only 3 guys that seemed ready to play were Bijan, Roschon, and Casey. Have some pride fellas. You only get so many cracks at this and it’s gone.

#32049

I'm not panicking. O-line is who I thought they were. It's gotta get fixed for next year. Arkansas will always be a tough game for us. 

Obv this fucks with our recruiting, but it isnt gonna get handed to us. Train isnt off the rails yet.  

#32050

OL’s don’t get fixed in a year. And before you go on about the portal, good to great OL don’t end up in the portal very often. You might get a one year bandaid via a grad transfer, but there is no magic wand that turns dog shit OL play around in 12 months.

The staff better have rock solid evals, or this cycle will just continue.
