    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

that is fair, i meant more in the "run too far upfield, only for the QB to get 20+ yards by running through the spot where he started"

Such a disgrace to the tradition that he was allowed to wear #60.

It's almost as if Orlando took a LB and tried to put 40 pounds on him and play him at 4i.

Looks like ESPN updated its rankings.  No surprise a lot of our commits dropped.  Brooks and Bledsoe went down.  Bryant dropped out of the ESPN 300 and is no longer a composite 4*.  Hyphen had a big drop.  Meanwhile, aggy recruits got bumps and Chris Marshall is now a composite 5*.

Actually he wanted to commit but we said no. Only backups allowed.

we are getting Perkins. 
What are we getting him, a nice gold chain to wear under his aggy uniform?
Woah, dude. I’ll have you know that Ben Davis led the team in sacks last season. 

Oh my god, this is true. That's incredible.

Too well balanced.  That was the problem.

BOOM. Per GH

"Per a source extremely close to On3 Consensus 4-star DL Jaray Bledsoe, he has been cleared by the NCAA and admitted to Texas. Bledsoe has moved into his dorm in Austin, and will begin working out with the team immediately.

The Longhorns staff continued to fight and work on this one when it looked less than 50-50 a week ago."

That’s a miracle. Good job by Bledsoe. Honestly the season not happening for him may have helped his academics.

That’s awesome. From a kid who was being told he wouldn’t qualify to an early enrollee.

What was his issue? And how does he go from potentially not qualifying to being able to finish high school a semester early and enrolling at UT? That doesn't add up.

He had all of fall to focus on grades because the UIL is a joke

He's not exactly supposed to be a future rocket surgeon. The UIL suspending him from football for a year gave him time to focus, and I'd bet the UT staff worked with his family and Marlin HS to get a plan together to get him over the line. His mom is supposed to be extremely focused on helping him succeed academically, which you'd like to be a given, but obviously isn't always the case.

happy for him, he really needed to be here for the winter/spring workouts and practices.

That's...fucking huge. That kid needs and off-season and time to acclimate to college like nobody's business.

He couldn't play football in the fall, and his mom basically strapped herself to his back master-blaster style to get him academically eligible. But even this exceeded everyone's expectations.

futureman guaranteed he would never make it to college, which sealed his fate as an early enrollee.

Huge. Tip of the cap to him going from a qualifying risk to EE. Here’s to him making the most of it.

This is the type of kids we need.  Faced with adversity. At one time having. I shot academically. Ratchets down and. It only qualifies but does it early and shows up ready.  If he can do that with the books. The field is gonna get murdered with the same intensity.  Go get ‘em young man

As a Texas fan nobody should be questioning the how. Just be glad that for once we're the school where other fans are wondering "how did they get that guy cleared?", be happy for Bledsoe, and tip your cap to a badass mom.
