Btw, FYI - 

Remember their hypocritical, scumbag coach preaching at SEC media days?

The top two pinned topics on the Georgia board.

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

Nailed that one didn’t you. Guess what, this shit gets ugly.

Hey dipshit, might want to read a bit further in the thread before you start blathering about what ugly shit really looks like.

Looking at 247, we have 9 of the top 50 players in the country.

Seems a little greedy. And mean.

There might be reasons to explain this, but Sark is a much better roster builder than Mack ever thought about being.  
 

Mack was scared to death of recruits who wouldn’t commit early and took too much bread.  Especially after the dickheads like Robert Joseph in the 2006 class.  
 

As I said a month or two ago, I don’t worry about recruiting with this regime.

I thought one was coming. Slow traffic night. I didn’t think the “apology” was enough to deserve absolution on most nights, but he may have dodged a bullet.

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.

Sorry I'm late, but you don't think Lee  and Rosenborough shopped their offers?  Rosenborough literally told us what A&M offered to see if we'd beat it and we told him good luck.

It's a good talking point to the THSCA, but I watched the entire talk he gave on youtube a bit ago. There were some other things said. The question was about this year's class, and how only ten of the 21 commitments are from the state of Texas. Sarkisian did a great job of answering the question, but the clear message in the entire Q&A was that Texas unapologetically was going to go after the best talent across the country. He acknowledged that agents have diminished the role of Texas high school coaches in the process, but he challenged coaches not to just give up their role as advisors and mentors. He challenged them to man up and be a part of the process rather than throwing up their collective hands and saying, "what can you do? It's all about the agents now."

He talked about how it's not just about Texas keeping the best players in the state. There were a lot of instate programs players could go to. Then he pointed out that many of the best players in the state were leaving for programs outside of Texas. He had the standard "if I could recruit my entire team from the state of Texas I would" line, but the clear message is that's not the world we live in. He refused to get defensive about it, which is exactly right. 

The truth is this recruiting season is a sea change from how Texas has always gone about its business. I doubt we ever see 80% of UT's draft picks to the NFL being instate kids ever again in my lifetime. Sarkisian has made a clear investment in going after the best players wherever they are, with an emphasis on the southeast and California. It's not just the NIL dollars spent. Or the commitments. Or even the visits, although all of those are a huge part of it. The coaches are investing their time and resources in travelling all over the country - not just to see specific kids, but to build connections in the high school for players in the current recruiting class, as well as who might be someone to look for in future classes. That's when you know Texas is serious about this. They're not just putting a sack of money in front of the player. They're going out and cultivating relationships because they want people to know they're in it for the long haul. That's how you help protect your program from bad seeds that poison the locker room and/or force your hand where you have to pull the lever to the trap door to get them out of Austin.

Good post. Their board is their board, and it doesn’t have borders.

I think the only sure thing these days is a U Lab kid signing with LSU.

The same pussies who dropped bags to win two back to back NC's and are now whining because Texas has more money? You're surprised?

Georgia fan is quite the paradigm. They are delusional and entitled crybabies. It’s entertaining to hear their rationalizations of why anyone would go to Texas to play football.

Georgia is heading toward Da U status. Hope it’s all been worth it. 

You would think after all these years of SEC bagmen and their "Gentlemen's Agreement" (not to be confused with that imaginary covenant that aggies whine about) Georgia fans would have some insight or at least a pragmatic understanding of things, but apparently not.  I've never known or met a Georgia fan, unless you count the members of the B52s, whom I got to party with back around 1982.  None of them seemed interested in sports.

So Sark told the Texas high school football coaches not to be such bitches?

Not really. The questions were from the media. He just refused to get defensive to the media in front of the high school coaches. I don't have access to any personal conversations with coaches.

I know many, having lived in the Atlanta region since 1984. When I moved here, they were coming off their Herschel high. Then a very long stretch of meh set in, and Saban pretty much broke their will. So in my time here, it's only since they finally escaped Bama's stranglehold that they've become very cocky. Before then, they were basically Auburn. 

The fact they had a fairly flawed team in 2024 and yet still beat us twice has them thinking we're not too special. And based on how we played against them, that's not an unreasonable conclusion. On their way to a title, they also somewhat recently destroyed a TCU team that spanked us. So UGA fans really do think they're much better at player development than we are, and they're convinced Texas is only returning to relevance because of money. Any other possibility would wreck their worldview.

I don't think they ever even wonder if they rebuilt their own program illegally. As a group, they really aren't deep thinkers about such things. 

Georgia fans are people of the land. The common clay of the Deep South. You know…morons.
