Texas Recruiting Notes 2022 - Idiotic Slapfights Unrelated To 2022 Recruiting

Listen I’m happy with Murphy in this class, mostly because Sark is the coach. But I don’t care who you are, if you haven’t started on varsity you’re not a five-star. I don’t give a shit about rating kids based on potential and I’m going to continue to hope that Ewers reconsiders.

All that said, All Gas No Brakes.

I'm sure futureman would love to have this conversation with you in the Ewers or bust thread, away from the rest of us.

    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

Most ratings are tied to camps and 7 on 7 performances. Heavy evaluations are put in to those and not so much public high school football games. 

These experts rarely miss 5 stars at this position so I trust their evaluations and especially Sark. 

Just my two cents.

Nobody knows what it means. But it's provocative

They very much take games into account. You need to see how recruits actually play the game. But with COVID and CA rules, they're doing the best they can.

This. QBs can look great on their HS team and suck in college. Throw them in camp against peers and 5's stand out pretty quick.

He is raw though from it but that's ok as we don't need him doing anything but getting better for the next 2-3 years

Wasn't that a regular season game against John Tyler that got intercepted at the 10 by Crawford?

35 yd throw to be exact and picked off twice that day. Once by Crawford for sure. All on national television. Real recruiting. 

The ranking will drop unless he meets an unrealistic standard set for him with his current ranking and general mystique. It just doesn’t matter.
He’s reportedly a great kid with a great support system. With his camp performances and general charisma he’s developed relationships and created a network. The value here is in the potential, and in the California pull. He could very well be the first in a steady flow from a state we’ve given more to than taken from, in recent memory.
I hope he’s incredible here, just don’t come alone, please?

Haven't seen either these offered by the new staff unless I missed it.

Greene does have a Bama' offer so maybe Flood has been in contact.  His player comparison is Wyatt Davis, so yes please.

I might be extrapolating a little, but McMillan strikes me as Overshown part 2.0 - big framed, highly athletic safety that could become an awesome hybrid/middle linebacker with sideline to sideline ability. Those types of bodies/inherent athletic traits are so rare but give you so much scheme integrity, particularly in the Big 12/NFL. Might be a tough sell to him though given he is clearly already accomplished at playing WR/S.

Thanks for your unsolicited opinion. No, we really appreciate it. It’s straight out of the “ur not a corch” logic tree. By the way, by definition, all ratings services are based upon potential. That’s why you see guys rated 5 stars all the time that don’t take over games in HS. Ranking nfl potential is literally the business model.

Motherfucker there is a time and place for this kind of take. And that time is tomorrow.

Your take was so bad it prompted Tex to use profanity. Do you know how bad that is? That guy won’t even jaywalk to save a puppy from getting hit by a car because it’s illegal.

4/10. Should have put Ken's Donuts on the ATX side. It's been a savior on many a drunk nights.

Alright it's been a few hours since Johnson and I'm gettin a little antsy.

With an attitude like that, I'm sure you'll make some man very happy one day.

I thought Ewers had a cannon that was unmatched in 2022, but that's 40-50 yards across his body without stepping in to the throw.

The Ags say he has a noodle arm.  They cant be wrong can they?

Two commits?  Is that all we're getting today?  Two goddamn commits?

How’d we ever get 2?

What do we think is a more realistic ranking for Cj Williams? Top 200? That being said I’m all for the ranking inflation in this class.

Where is the Aggy troll who came in here claiming to be "worried" about the momentum A&M was having? 

From a Gamecock to a Glasscock ... the hire will end up being LongAndHornyCock.

I assumed he meant Hughes as the Gamecock. Come on, TARS.

But the last guy we tried to hire for the role was a Gamecock, bot.

Pretty fucking dumb metric for a junior who wasn’t able to play this year, if you ask me.
