Is Gumby's pizza still around? That and Taco Bell on the Drag fed me for years and the guy selling fried rice outside of McCombs. Spent a few years at the Woo. There was a good Greek place on the Drag - downstairs. Before the arcade place that I wasted too much money at - Street Fighter. I'm searching @Gut Wagon. Burgers and wings I'm solid on though.  We are getting closer to Cooper time! I still want to get M.Lee. Greedy, I suppose. 

if we can close with Cooper, Lee, Roseborough, and Benjamin ... that's a good year.  I'm still not sure what the staff has in mind for Max Wright IOL or a RT? Coleman brothers from last year and Nick Brooks seem to be doing great.

Yep, going there asap @Hagbard Celine. Had me at fried Okra. And to be semi on topic Brooks may be our LT when Goosby goes NFL. All signs point to greatness for this young man.

Stay on topic.

Shit did you see the food pic from @Hagbard Celine? I'm only 155lbs but wanted to crush my screen to start shoveling that food in my mouth.

There was a Mr Gatti's there where 19th and the Drag intersected.  At least in 76-78 or so.    And my breakast more days than not on campus debarking shuttle buses at Littlefield fountain

I hated when they ran off the private vendors and replaced them with the Union crap carts.

Blacklab is going to be so mad at you when he logs in for his weekly mod rant 

It's ok @BurntOrange&White, I think every person I know is mad at me for some reason. Now me losing 10 or more minutes just staring at your avatar is another issue. I'm not using food utensils when I to @Hagbard Celine place. I know I can drink the creamed corn and other things so that helps.

So is Miami staying tuned even though recruiting is fluid?

He's shopping our offer which is the best he will get from us. My vote for what it matters was to pull his offer. Kid isn't a unicorn and will sit for 1-2 years. He's really pissed off Texas on this.

Of all the positions in football, I feel like running backs should max their value while they can. In that vein I'm a little sympathetic to Cooper trying to max his value.

OTOH, I'll say that outside of WR, I feel like running back is the position where a true freshman can come in and make the biggest impact. I know it's a little different in Sarkisian's offense because of pass pro and how involved the running backs are in the passing game as targets - but when you have a special player you figure out a way to get them on the field where they can make an impact. 

I just feel like if he's truly playing games at this point, he's a likely flip target, and for all we know as the season goes on, other targets will make themselves available. Or we'll be on a special back in next year's class. As a fan that wants my dopamine hit I hope we get him, but the more rational side of me is going to be fine however it goes down. I like the room we have right now and I feel like opportunities are going to come up.

What gives you any indication Texas is “really pissed off?” I’ve seen nothing of the kind. And he announced his Sunday commitment about a week ago, so I don’t think there’s been any stringing along as he’s shopping for a better deal. Sure, he’s probably interested in what the market brings, but that’s what he should be doing, especially if he could see himself playing at multiple universities.

Money and some big donors saying no. His contract is limited and done. Shopping it, not a good idea.

I would get one after lacrosse practice and every single time I would eat the entire thing.

I'd like to have Cooper in this class. I'm not contributing more money for that to happen and many others aren't. Shopping a top offer just kinda pisses off the alpha money. M.Lee and Rosenborough are my tops. I'll contribute for them.

We aren't getting Roseboroug. The staff is all in on Lee. I guess if Roseborough picked up the phone and said he wants in, I doubt the staff would turn him away. 

 

As for Cooper, he's a really good player, but he's a notch below Crowell. Crowell is elite elite. Cooper is very, very good. There's a difference. I'm not some hudl expert, but the difference in theirs is drastic. Not to mention Crowell has been on one side of the ball his entire career, as far as I know. Cooper played defense and offense. Coopers rushing yards from last season don't inspire a lot of confidence that he can cone in and be a bell cow, but who the fuck knows?

What evidence do you have that Crowell is elite elite and Cooper is just very, very good?

Well Texas must be pissed at Atkinson, Wesley and literally all the other top end recruits that also shopped their offers because that’s what elite talent does.

You mean he is doing what any reasonable person would also do in the situation?

This would be a great policy if your goal is a recruiting class size of zero.

Good vibes from Bobby’s posts (my opinion)

Yet again, seeing a bunch of quotes of a poster I put on ignore years ago and forgot why I did. Then I see the quotes and it’s “oh, yeah, that’s why”. 

Wow. 

I smell Barbacoa in this thread.

i don’t know fuck about shit, but I think Crowell is a better back by a good margin.

I don't know shit about fuck, but I think Cooper is quicker through the hole, I think playing both sides of the ball and being a track guy makes him a better fit for Sarks team.  I wouldn't mind having either, both have high ceilings

Man, that looks great for a Sunday lunch!!!

Why wouldn’t a recruit shop an offer? They could be doing it for a few good reasons. First, they may want to flesh out whether Texas’ offer is truly best and final, in the hopes of having Texas move up. Second, they want to see how much more they could make elsewhere. That then allows them to make an informed decision. Even if a recruit is locked in to Texas, it makes sense to still do a check on the market. Poster’s angst is stupid, unless the recruit is lying to Texas.
