Looks like Gideon is outperforming the Rainmaker Jeff Banks with his pet monkey and stripper GF. Impressive.

    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

Sark can do more than just drop the bag, dude is really selling what this program can potentially be.

He looks like he's watching somebody slowly die and not givin' a fuck. 🤘

 

Keeping Harris is huge. So many of these kids love him.

(Mike Roach) Texas commit Maalik Murphy recaps Austin trip with Horns247

Spoiler

Maalik Murphy was able to see his future home this weekend.

The five-star quarterback from Gardena (Calif.) Junipero Serra made his way to Austin to work with his trainer and see Texas for himself and it didn't disappoint.  Murphy spoke with Horns247 while waiting at the airport to return to the west coast, and he was sad he had to leave.

"It was wonderful," he said. "It was so good. For the little bit that I could do, I really enjoyed it. For it being my first time in Austin, I could really feel the environment. I felt the love of the fans and everything and walk around the campus. I got to be on the field for a little bit. It was really a good experience for me and I can't wait to go back. I don't even want to leave right now. I'm bummed about that but I'll be back for sure."

Murphy was able to take in the city and the campus, but the friendly nature and genuine attitude of those he ran into made a huge impression.

"How nice people were," he said. "Where I come from, most people are nice, but not all of them. It seemed like everybody was super genuine. I went to the Co-Op to pick up some Longhorn stuff for my family and about eight people stopped me to take pictures or have a quick talk. Even the workers were super genuine and excited and knew who I was. It was kind of crazy me having my mask on and not wearing any Texas stuff, they still knew who I was. That's kind of crazy how much football stands out in the state of Texas. People really love it and take it seriously. They know their recruits and all that stuff. That was kind of crazy to me getting to be a part of it."

Murphy knew a few Texas players from their time out west, and he was able to meet up with a few to get a better idea about the Texas program.

"I was able to meet up with Bijan (Robinson) and Malcolm Epps," he said. "My boy Chris Adimora came out for a little bit also. I was able to talk to them the majority of the time while I was in Austin."

Murphy was able to see the stadium despite the construction going on.  Being able to envision his future was an exciting moment for him.

"It was good how it was," he said. "Even though they are working on it and it isn't done yet, I just let it all seep in and really be in the moment. It was crazy being in the stadium and walking in the end zone and standing on the fifty. Just looking in the crowd and picturing my future there was ridiculous and I loved it."

At 6-foot-5, 225 pounds, Murphy is ranked as the No. 4 pro-style quarterback in the country and No. 4 overall prospect in California, according to 247Sports Composite.

A fun thought exercise would be to think about how differently Tom Herman's conversation with Harris would have surely gone

Here are three more fun activities to try out when you're done with that one:

1. Light yourself on fire.

2. Run head first into a brick wall.

3. Enjoy a long, intimate chat with futureman or Spider2YBanana. Since you're into that sort of thing.

TARS means Brandon, not Denver, lest anyone flip the fuck out. 

What does it say about how sark saw Carrington that he would go all out to keep Harris and not do the same for him? Maybe he did, but it wasn’t made public.

Everyone get excited for our new starting QB: Brandon Harris. 

I hear Harris is Ron McKelvey’s son. 

Check that. Grandson.

It says that unlike Herman, Sark doesn’t need a staff bartender/director of emojis/a reliable blow hook up.

It’s easier to teach a guy that knows football how to unleash his recruiting acumen than to teach a recruiter how to coach football

That’s tricky.  We have 2 studs committed but not signed that signed up for the Drayton experience.

I don’t think it will be this year or next year. But Harris wants an on field role I believe so him staying is likely predicated on that in the future.

Agreed that is what Harris wants.  Agreed that is the most likely role for him. Managing the transition will be crucial.

+ Campbell, Banks, D Harris, Anderson and we have the undisputed #1 recruiting class in America at 245 with 11 commits.

Now maybe all of those guys is a stretch, but where we are today, I don’t think any of them individually are unrealistic.

Edited to add: for comparison, last year we ended at 237 with 21 recruits. Username is checking out right now.

We want to land OLs and DLs that the SEC now believes they’re entitled to thanks to the fuckfaces in College Station opening that doorway? It’s gonna be a bumpy, expensive ride in the end. Banks, Neto and Dewberry aren’t safeties. Who knows when, where, or how those guys are going to go?

Sark just followed

Maybe Texas goes after and lands this guy, but he’s got problems and they’re not the kind simply solved.

Not to brag, but I played a little DT way back in the day as a 230 lb double team collapsing fat kid, so I'm pretty much an expert on this stuff. The one thing I look for in DT highlight films is if they chase down a play away--it's something I rarely had the energy to do. This guy checks that box in a big way. Do want.

Empty oil barrel and many gallons of acid. No trace left..simple.

If he keeps it up, we might forgive him for his past sins.

I’m thinking that Jeff Banks may go on to be a head coach in the future and Harris will then coach TE because he is a plus recruiter for us.
