    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

Tough day in terms of our 9.95ers shitting down their legs, but missing a guy we didn't think we were getting two days ago and a guy we have an obvious backup plan waiting in the wings in Finkley isn't too much of a dickpunch.

#22922

I never thought we had a great chance of getting both Harris and Brooks. Just thought it would be to Bama.

Don't really care one way or another with the UCF dude, other than losing a player to UCF.

3* to UCF? Just cut off my head and shit down my throat ffs.

You don't just walk into (checks wikipedia for UCF stadium name) the bounce house, and expect to walk out with victory.

Not too worried, Gus nows how to run a cash advance system and UCF seems like they could care less as long as wins follow

Humble him? Oh, you think this crowd is going to be ones to get the get that’s never been got, do ya?

Can't say I care about missing on Thompson.

Brooks would've been a great surprise but if we land Harris and Anderson, not a big deal. Gotta get those two now though.

I like where your head’s at, Sir Ulrich. We should have a neg war to stave off ennui and see who the last man standing is.

I don’t think so, but I’ve altered my outlook over time as new shit comes to light. I could have had him in the class in a post at some point. He’s always been the stretchiest of in-state DB targets but I’ve always coveted him as a prospect. In my recent updates, I’ve said he was trending Bama and then that they might not have room. They were pushing consideration for NB or safety and it turned the dad off. Had Bama just stayed on the CB grind, they probably win the recruitment as expected. 

I continue to maintain that Texas will get both Anderson and Harris in this class.

I think I am perhaps the most humble person on this board, sir.

Excellent.  I love it when things fall off my things to do list.

This makes sense if you’ve recently changed your legal name to Humble.

Jesus you people are fucking pussies. 

Seriously. We missed on a guy that we were always trailing for and a guy who's a good developmental prospect, but is extremely replaceable, and we;re probably going to land like 5 commits in the span of a week.  

 

I wonder if the staff will circle back on KJ Miles now, or if they knew we weren't getting Thompson before they slowed on Miles. We already have Jones and are still in a good spot for FInkley.  Numbers are hard to tell since a lot of Jack prospects could also potentially grow into DL.

Finkley is a backup plan?

Really wish we could get Boardingham to consider coming off the edge, but I think I read somewhere that offering at DE was the reason Notre Dame was out of his recruitment.

Honestly might not be. Was going off of Gerry saying he might be grumpy if we took Thompson, but Gerry hasn't exactly had a banner couple days.

#22948

Fuck this. So what. We missed on a good player. Good luck to the kid. He chose poorly but it is what it is. Fuck that shithole ohio. Until we win it’s gonna happen. Buckle up cuz it’s time to get some big boys in here. Anyone who isn’t jumpin to Austin can go fuck themselves. 

#22949

Brooks sucks mainly because of the way we got teased last night. The services were all way off on that recruitment being a two-team race and when the Bama mods started hedging it seemed logical enough to get our hopes up. Most people thought he was a longshot for the class yesterday morning and nobody was panicking about the potential defensive back class. Weird recruitment all around.

Meh on Thompson. Nice player with some tools but if we had taken him half the posters here would be complaining that we are taking UCF level talent and should have kept our powder dry for Finkley or others.

I'd be surprised if the 9.95ers have any insight into how the staff have prioritized the DL targets.
