    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

Skeptics of Flood looked at his work at Bama and said “of course they’re dominant, look at the talent they brought in.”

Well, on paper, this OL class is just as strong as the ones he was coaching over there. ELITE shit.

Edit: Meant to quote @Newy25

They’re absolutely going to take Agbo and to not do so would be foolish.

The OL room is such a mess that you can’t say no to good prospects, you add them and work it out in practice. If there are a couple transfers over the next few years then so be it. It helps in that regard that these guys are on pretty varied developmental tracks. Banks is favored to start year 1 and could only be here 3 years. Campbell is not a lock according to recent developments but if he is in, he’s another guy that could play his first year and is probably here no more than four years if things work out. Agbo and Cam Williams absolutely need redshirts. Robertson, Hutson, and Neto all have degree of position versatility, especially Neto. You’re not necessarily taking 7 guys competing for 5 spots over the same exact time period. There’s some wiggle room given the state of the unit, which is why you go big.

Bobby mentioned Agbo has a spot.

They will take 7 because 2023 isn't so hot on the OL recruiting in state. 1-2 of these guys could start next year 2-3 will redshirt, 1 or so will contribute.

I've said it 100 times, but it bears repeating again: what on earth did we do to deserve Bijan? 

I may have taken the worst timed Nyquil of all time 

Monday night, things look quiet, time to shut it down and get some sleep . . .

Tuesday morning check the thread and 400 new posts?!!?!

Yeah, I missed all the fun. Can’t be the only one this happened to. #SarkAfterDark strikes again.

Frisco is basically DFW, right? 

Yes, it is just north of Plano. Lived there in mid to late 90's and my kid played little league when we did not even have a grocery store but the place was growing. During practice coaches would yell that effort is not going to beat Plano when you're in High School. Seeing these high rated players out of Frisco always brings back those memories.

In 2020 Alabama replaced three starting offensive linemen and had one of the best offenses in college football history behind and offensive line that won the Joe Moore Award for best offensive line unit.

In 2021 Alabama replaced three starting offensive linemen and their offensive line was massively up and down all year.

2020 Alabama OL: 14th in average line yards, 7th in sack rate

2021 Alabama OL: 46th in average line yards, 67th in sack rate

(average line yards is a metric that gives the OL credit for rush yards between 0-3 yards and 50 percent credit for 4-8 yard runs)

I don't know how the talent they replaced compares to the talent that played this year, but it's fucking Alabama so I'm guessing it's pretty good.

I cannot do math this early in the morning. Have we ever had a better OL class before? 

I’m going to show my age here a bit but Texas signed a OL class dubbed the Class of Beef back when they signed Blake Brockermeyer.  That’s what this class reminds me of. 

I am totally lost...
Which isnt a major change from my normal state, but any of you asshole want to explain this shit to me like I would my 6 year old?

So are taking 7 OL guys this class???  Numbers are gonna be tight the rest of the way
No they aren't, numbers will work themselves out. Don't worry about the numbers, as there are more players about to portal.

Only if Reno… I mean Quinn wears white shoes. Gigi loves him in those white shoes!!!

I’m going with it being Hudson.  DFW guy with a lot of smoke in the past. 
 

As far as CFS goes, I’ve always been partial to the one at Neal’s cafe in Concan. 

Well, it’s obvious several posters have wandered over from the football board. Welcome, and maybe read and catch up? Then, and only then will you be able to understand the inside jokes and sarcasm. Come on people, be better!

Lmao at Winfield.   This should be a lesson to recruits.  Dude is going to be playing in a shit conference in 2 years at Baylor when had a chance to catch passes from Ewers in the SEC at Texas.

I just watched Nero’s highlights for the first time and he’s my favorite lineman in the class. Nasty

He's my favorite in any year since Octavian Bishop.

Agreed. A petition would be far more effective.
