    Moore’s camp has told Bobby Burton that Trey Moore is returning to Texas. Nothing set in stone, but that would be a big deal, IMO.

He’s a complete bust. Riley knew he was a bust a few weeks after he arrived on campus. 

So to re-hash our portal targets are

Max Klare, TE Purdue, 3rd team all Big 10

Cole Brevard, DT Purdue

Tacario Davis, DB Arizona

Davis hasn't actually set up a visit yet.

Brandon Tucker, LB from ETAMU, has one set up, though.

Riley should have known he was a bust before he took him as his only quarterback in that class.

Has this dude even logged PT anywhere?  It's one thing to be 5 star bust like Arnold/Weigman where you at least look competent enough in practice to get on the field and suck, but this dude can't even convince a coach to let him on the field.

Impossible. Mike Farrell swore he was better than Arch Manning.

Riley recruited him for years and avoided even talking any other qb in the class like the plague. Gigantic swing and a miss by dry brisket boy.

He was so heavily invested in Nelson that it was hard to look at him objectively. That was a four year recruitment. It fooled ESPN to make him the number one recruit in the 2023 class. I’m not sure any recruiting service has missed so badly on a recruit than ESPN on Nelson.

I think he got a little PT in mop up duty at Boise this year. They apparently told him his NIL would not be renewed.

A reminder that ESPN rated Malachi Nelson as the number 1 overall recruit, and they had Arch at number 5, also behind Dante Moore and Jackson Arnold, both of which have also transferred.

At first,I was, “Damn, this guy has used up his eligibility, otherwise he could come in and help Helo.” But then I realized he can come in immediately as  a GA and get to work on the transfers as Helobius’ intern.

I know I’ve belabored it before, but I have friends who were involved with the ESPN and On3 ratings. In both situations, contemporaneously, they said the guys running the ratings did not want to rate Manning #1 overall because of the fear of being wrong. They got bullied by dimwits like Mike Farrell and Billy Liucci running around social media touting Manning as a 3 star player with a 5 star name. 

Those guys all deserve to be mocked every time they mention a ranking.

This feels like revisionist history.

I don't remember any of those guys being flagged as "big risks" whatsoever when they came out. Some folks weren't as high on Ross becuase of concerns, but "big risk" seems like a stretch. Everyone assumed a kid on a college S&C and nutrition program would be able to gain 20-25 pounds on a college nutrition and S&C program. Instead the fucking guy came in and lost 10. I feel like that's a pretty rare occurrence.

Mitchell was coveted by everyone at the time, including GA, and he was a big win. Yes, he was a big body, but everyone was high on that guy, and he still has great qualities. His problem is his head. I don't remember ANY large segment of guys saying he was a Finch from wildcats style fatbody who would never amount to anything. This shit is what's happening in retrospect. 

I don't really remember any of Bryant's recruitment either way.

Odd that no one is mentioning Jaray Beldooe here, who basically enrolled academically by the skin of his teeth, and succesfully doing that was a shock to many. People threw around terms like "learning disability" at the time, yet we never hear that mentioned as part of his bust factor. 

Big risk was the wrong word. I would more accurately just say “risk”. Davis had struck out on his top few targets and these guys were the next level down, and it was discussed on the board that some of these guys were undersized or were motivation risks (like Mitchell). A few on the board were “over the moon” about the takes, and tried to shut down any discussion of limitations of those takes. My only point is that a lot of the posters, myself included, knew there were some risks with that whole group, so the current situation is not a surprise to me at all.

Purdue guys pulling up like

Nelson was California High School player of the year as a SOPHOMORE

Who knew Hudson Card has been a mole at Purdue this whole time. What a guy!

For real, hope we get that TE though. And bring the safety with him.

This is a kid whose career was screwed up by a poor choice and an overly involved dad. Kid should have had shoulder surgery when he was injured as Jr in HS but didn't want to miss his Sr year and dad agreed to stick with plan.  He waits until after his senior season and arrived at USC still recovering... they pushed him too quickly to return and he has never recovered.

Any other punters that had 64 punts for 44.9 avg (41.8 net) with 17 inside the 20 that we can bring in?

they don’t even have to be 6’3, we can just list them as such.

Have any kickers of note been mentioned as possibly visiting Texas?

I know people on here are keen to land a punter, but I feel like a reliable kicker is much more important.

We didn't lose any games because of Kern, but you could argue that Bert cost us the SEC championship.

Branch from USC might be a must-have. He was absolutely electric his freshman year especially on returns. Not sure what happened this year but I think Sark’s system is what he needs

We all know we need one. The only one mentioned so far is that the SMU kicker might bounce after the Playoffs.
