Blacklab did. I will probably unban him today I forgot he permabanned him post game

Out of curiosity, how does a banned guy find out they have been unbanned? Are there a bunch of banned posters just trying to login every day hoping today is the day I get back to Surly? Is there a telegram sent or something?

In the case of @BurntOrange&White, he'll be browsing the site using his sock account ( @SydneyCarton ) , and then he'll see the posts saying he's been unbanned, and know he can log back into his main. 

I didn’t think he was banned just figured he was out of material with Ewers gone since that’s all he talked about. But yea no think he was banned for saying Sark finding sobriety was actually a bad thing.

He stepped on the wrong rake.

The NJ kid has the look of a top player, and I’m presuming it will be difficult to get him away from the B1G powers or ND, but I see a lot of interaction with aggy. Does not compute.

If you have the money, NJ recruits will listen. They seem to have an affinity for getting the fuck out of New Jersey, irrespective of whether that’s to Penn State, USC, Bama or ATM. I’m interested in seeing if Texas can make it happen here. Glad to see Sydir Mitchell didn’t end the UT efforts up there.

Yeah, they hire a really good coach and it will all work out nicely.  It's make too much sense not to do it.  CDC isn't a dummy.

I know it’s early in the recruiting process, but I think we’re already seeing the tide turn sooner than even a year ago.

More and more elite players are interested in Texas at a deeper level. I’m talking not only about in-state players, but also out-of-state ones, too.

That’s a natural biproduct of winning and winning big.

So I’m unsure how this Junior Day weekend will unfold.

Even though Steve Sarkisian likes to be extraordinarily patient when it comes to accepting commitments, his hand may be forced slightly. The momentum his program has generated may have several recruits ready to make a decision.

Let’s see how Sark plays it this weekend. Does he continue on the same path that has been successful for him in previous recruiting classes or does he change ever so slightly to take advantage of so much momentum?

Turntine looks even smaller than Kelvin Banks did in HS. Hopefully his athleticism and intellect help him overcome that.

I had the same thought. He's not an exceptionally large dude.

Per a coach on the staff at NC he has tight end feet and is extremely strong/physical.

Connor Williams-y. 6’3ish 270. Who cares if he’s an NFL guard? Williams had elite athleticism in the pass game and blocked for a 2k rusher

Gerry said yesterday he was thinking Turntine would end up 6'3.5, around 305 pounds.

Connor Williams is actually a massive guy, he’s gotta be at least 6’5 as well. 
 

Flood is in the 5’10-5’11 neighborhood

Williams was listed at 6’6” 315 and measured in at 6’5” 296 at the combine

The little guy hasn't done anything on this site in almost two weeks. I just assume that the wife got tired of his angry incel behavior and beat him with a tire iron until he stopped breathing. 

I looked it up. The guy has over 43,000 rep points. It would be really hard to crowdsource you, with less than a 4th of his rep points. Doing so to him would be nearly impossible and would take more idiots than you could assemble to make that happen. 

Helobious is the King of Idiots though, so I’m pretty sure he can sample a huge horde of idiots.

And has said he’s not worried about his size even a little bit.

I was going to say .... CTJ's comment didn't give much credit for the collection of idiots assembled here. My feelings were actually hurt.

The thing about legacies these days is that you can still land them, all things equal. However, when everyone else knows the player is a legacy, they’re going to make sure they help that kid get his market value from the home team. 

Sure. It’s like agents floating that a coach is a target of other jobs to get a raise even they have no intention of leaving. Ahem, Sark Nfl, ahem.

I think all the 9.95 sites have mentioned at this point that they don't feel the 2026 in-state class is as strong as some previous classes. Should make for an interesting cycle with our willingness to go out of state.

Seems like OL and DB should be able to be filled with largely in-state guys if we choose. DT and LB seem like they will involve some big boy out of state battles if we want to hit our needed numbers (3-4 at DT I'm assuming and hopefully 3 at LB).

Doesn’t it seem like we hear this every year?!? When tf was it a strong year in state sheesh!

A few updates from GH:

Texas is recruiting this guy in Bama. He's currently unranked by 247 but he's starting to get a lot of attention from all of the big boys:

North Carolina offers:

Texas makes flurry of offers in North Carolina

Jeff Banks went recruiting bonkers in the Tar Heel state Thursday. The Texas Longhorns sent national recruiting ace to the state that is absolutely loaded along the defensive front in the 2026 cycle to make offers to some of the nations best in hopes of getting as many as possible to campus this spring. 

OnTexasFootball provides a rundown of the offers from Thursday. 

Rodney Dunham, EDGE, Charlotte (N.C.) Myers Park

The 6-foot-4, 230-pound EDGE prospect doubles as a talented baseball prospect that touched 90 MPH on the mound last summer. The Longhorns were the 30th offer for the top 50 ranked prospect in the cycle. 

SEC offers: Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, Texas, Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Missouri and Texas A&M.  

Aiden Harris, EDGE, Matthews (N.C.) Weddington 

Harris plays high school football near the ESPN SEC Network Studios south of Charlotte. The 6-foot-3, 240-pounder has nearly 30 offers, including early favorites Ohio State and Auburn. 

SEC offers: Auburn, Florida, Tennessee, South Carolina, Texas and Ole Miss. 

Andrew Harris, EDGE, Matthews (N.C.) Weddington

The 6-foot-2, 235-pounder is also nearing 30 offers, including Auburn.

SEC offers: Auburn, Florida, Tennessee, South Carolina, Texas and Ole Miss. 

Damaad Lewis, DL/TE, Charlotte (N.C.) Ballantyne Ridge

Another that goes to school right by the ESPN SEC Network studios south of Charlotte. Younger brother of former LSU and current Carolina Panthers offensive lineman Damien Lewis. He lives with his brother, thus moving from the Seattle area prior to the 2024 season to Charlotte. Lewis is 6-foot-4, 245-pounds with the frame to carry much more. 

January offers of note: Texas, Oregon, USC and Minnesota.  

2026 DL Noah Clark already had a Texas offer, and attended the Georgia game this season ...

Would Ojo be a RT? It seems Turntine is the true #1 priority unless I am missing something.

Yeah, about that... Turntine might want a word.

Naturally, I'd love both.

Would be hilarious if this guy committed this weekend after this was just put in by the aggy Rivals mod.
