Bragg and Leal are the two big misses

They sure are. I did not think we would miss on either after we hired Hand and Sumlin was fired.

Jake Smith is a fucking stud.  We went after him over "in-state analogues" because he is a fucking baller.  

One of the few prospects in the nation who had a committable offer from pretty much everyone in the country. He's an elite slot receiver.

The people bitching about swinging and missing on elite out of state guys like bru and sanders would be the same ones bitching if we settled for in state low 4 stars

Bru seemed like a worthwhile cause.

Given what we know about Sanders' recruitment, it's fair to wonder if we needed to go all-in on him.

I completely agree in the sense that we are a national program and should seek out those players from all parts. However, I would like to start with the Fab55 and work down and take the Texas kids first.. Nobody ever said I didn't have a complete grasp of the obvious.

#33856

Bragg - fuck Stanford. The staff needs to figure out how to overcome that.


I gotta wonder if Bragg was a 2020 kid if it'd be a diff story. Hand and Yancy impact + Stanford OL underperformance. It'll come.

We'll see how the Jake Majors and Chad Lindberg recruitments go.

Baby steps.

Just as I was starting to worry we wouldn't have a chance to go full melt today, Sata comes through.

Not going to complain one bit with this two year haul (not done yet with 2019) ~91 avg. rating

QB - Rising, Thompson, Johnson

RB - Ingram, Brown

WR - Eagles, Moore, Woodard, Whittington, Smith, Washington, Lewis

TE - Epps, Liebrock, Wiley

OL - Angilau, Moore, Ghirmai, Jones, Johnson, Shepherd

DL - Coburn, Ojomo, Carson, Warren, Jones, Sweat, Mpagi

LB - Adeoye, Vaughns, Floyd, Gbenga, Tillman, Johnson

DB - Sterns, Foster, Green, Overshown, Cook, Jamison, Watson, Owens, Adimora, Caldwell

that roster can be a Big XII winner

We'll see with Lindberg. If we can also pull off Majors, then that's an even better sign.

Yah, but the recent track records of both school's olines gave UT zero chance. It was night and day entering the year.

Next year has potential to be an insanely ridiculous OL haul. Kinda excited about it.

I will add, Majors is going to be a candidate for the annual offensive lineman from Texas poached by Stanford.

Let me get this straight. You have Kate Beckinsale in an ORANGE bikini, pushing a batshit crazy california bitch in a YELLOW bikini, and you are bitching about it? I didn't even realize that was Kathy Griffin, you need to evaluate your priorities. 

Yeah but Kathy Griffin is like a car wreck and Kate is like the Ferrari that belongs to the doctor that stopped to help. No matter what else is going on, it's hard not to look at the wreck.

I always thought the reason we almost never have a chance at the nation's true elite prospects is because we don't open up the coffers, a la the SEC.  Aren't we just pissing into the wind without offering massive payouts?

Or is that all bullshit.

Depends on the recruitment. This year's sliding scale of cleanliness would be from Nakobe Dean to Bru McCoy.

I think it's pretty fucking hard to land that type in the southeast without playing the game, unless you're a blue blood who's annually in the playoff, Stanford recruiting a nerd, Notre Dame recruiting a catholic, etc

In Texas, we can obviously land that type. On the west coast and mountain west, the competition is less fierce; when USC is good, they can only take so many, and when they have Clay Helton, that type might not be locks to go there anyone unless they're Mater Dei or Bosco kids

why can't we push to get some OL out of California or other OOS? I know there are good schools and a lot of D1 programs in CA but seems we don't really try OOS for OL. I know we got Angilau last year.

The Whitner guy from IMG looks like he could be an interior OL for us.

We paid for him to come over on an OV, so yes. But he didn't get an offer so he's clearly not an immediate priority.

I stand corrected.  looks like we at least tried to cast a wider net.  don't really recognize those OOS names probably because they probably gave us no real interest back.  the JUCO guys going to SEC isn't surprising necessarily.  Tom really f'd up with Warehime... Hand/Herman need to put in some work to correct this.

Thanks. Looked it up after I posted and saw the OV. 

#33898

It sounds like we aren't taking more than 3. Then, we will get a couple of grad transfers (like those Bama guys) and call it a day. Hand may already know some of the grad transfers and they may have already indicated interest to Hand.

#33899

We should also just get Justin Fields to transfer and if we don't it's clearly an indication that there are systemic and crippling inefficiencies with this coaching staff, the program, and the entire State of Texas.

 

Is that how you do it, satanyash?

"We should also just get Justin Fields to transfer and if we don't it's clearly an indication that there are systemic and crippling inefficiencies with this coaching staff, the program, and the entire State of Texas.".

Lets just hire Art Briles while we are at it as well?
