I’ve been channeling your wife for years.

Chunneling?

Just spent the morning breaking down the film of Stone and Milroe and here are my thoughts: 
Stone: Great mechanics and decision making. You can tell he's got the technical aspects down and is a real leader on the field. Obviously put in the work to get where he is today since he has limited athleticism. A real lunch pail kind of guy. He's just a hard working no nonsense kind of kid who is the first guy to show up and the last guy to leave. His biggest strengths are probably his moxie and grit. Wherever he ends up he's going to put his head down and go to work and keep his mouth shut. You can tell that he's had to earn his spot and wasn't just handed the reins. Definitely a great locker room guy and a guy who will stick around for all 4 years even if he isn't starting. 
Milroe: A flashy, me first kind of player. You can tell he's looking out for numero uno when he's on the field. Has all the talent in the world but it's obvious that he doesn't also put in the work. Gives minimal effort and relies on talent to get the job done. It can be a bit hard to tell from just the game film, but he's obviously a locker room diva as well. His intangibles are also lacking, I'm not sure why but I just know it from looking at him. He's definitely a high upside athlete, but I think at the end of the day he ends up at WR or transferring. 

Recruits that recently visited Texags might actually not recognize this is satire.

Jesus, once the kid can actually get 8 hours of sleep a night that alone should make a difference.

I thought you bolded that part because he works at Wing Stop. Figured we put Giles on him

Giles asked to be assigned to him.

Boy, I read Tunmise updates and it is shocking how easy he is to root against. Texas isn’t getting him and whoever does is getting a prima donna tweet machine that will transfer after year 1 unless he’s starting by the second half of his freshman season.

On Texas recruiting him:
"I just talked to Coach Drayton 20 minutes ago. He said, 'take your time, I want to earn your family's trust, but when you're ready just let me know.'"

Might be time to tweak the message

He got to #218 in the country between his sophomore and junior seasons and finished ranked #766. Obviously futureman is going to futureman, but Lindell Stone definitely dropped like a, um, rock, in the rankings his last two seasons.

Ah fuck I thought he was referring to the WR brother.

Did you just come back to the recruiting thread and admit you made a mistake? You've got a lot to learn, buddy.

As of today I think the best bets are Thomas, Turner, and Sanders with Smith as a b-backer.

4.42 40, but a 4.71 shuttle???

straight line speed?

Even then, a 4.71 is pathetic....even Mr Straight line speed, Duvernay, had a 4.24 shuttle.

Could have slipped or never trained for the shuttle

Spiegelman put in Texas picks for Clayton Smith and Juan Davis

Man, every year we seem to nail B-backer, and struggle with recruiting "normal" LBs.

Yeah we need to land Derrick Harris.  Sucks he's going to the aggy event Friday.  Maybe he'll visit Saturday??

Aren't we also looking at a kid from Mineola?

This class has a feeling of having about a dozen commits by the end of the season.

SIAP, but Juan Davis runs on Everman's 4x200 and 4x400 relay teams, 200 meters, and triple jump.

Way back in the day there was a guy named Theron Brown who ran all the sprints and high and low hurdles for Hebert High in Beaumont. He wore Zips for warm ups because they had pockets for his snack money and wouldn’t bother to put on spikes until the finals

B Backer is the marquis position on the defense. They move them around a lot and they get to rush the passer a lot.

The Marquis Position? Pray tell, good sir, what position is the Vicomte? What about the Chevalier of the defense, is that the nickelback? 

Or did you just mean Marquee?

Nah we're actually getting Lafayette to take over our pass rush at B-Backer, Rocheambeau at Rover, and perhaps Laumoy at Mac?

I think we can all agree that Breckyn Hager played the Dumas.

He’s a 16 year old about to start his Junior year in HS.  Every big name school and big name coach is kissing his ass begging him to come to their school.  I have known him since he was 5.  He’s a great kid and his parents are completely grounded.  His dad is most interested in education. Tunmise is having fun with the process.  Can you blame him?  What would you have done at 16?  

 

He won’t commit until his senior year.  All we have to do is win and he will be here with Jalen.  He was vocal in getting schools to look at Jalen and now he’s committed to us.  Let the process play out and let the kid enjoy the process.  How you can root against a 16 year old because he’s acting like a 16 year old is beyond me.  If he commits somewhere else, so be it.  He’s a great kid and very humble and I said 2 years ago he would end up here....we shall see.
