    There's more than just 2019 stuff in this update, but I'm not being paid to post, so I'm dumping it all here and you guys can do with it/disseminate it/ignore it as you like. Regarding the UA guy

    Now Mpagi is better than Leal???!???    Guys tell me you’re trolling. Please tell me this isn’t real. I feel like I’m in a Seinfeld bizarro world episode. I can’t take this shit anymore. Whe

Well, we could have certainly done better today. Still have major holes at RB and OL.

Growing confidence articles are up.  Looking forward to he slept on it and notified coaches in the morning of his commitment to Penn State.

9.95ers are totally predictable 

we haven't had a 1000 yard rusher since who knows when.  ingram can be that back but we need a fucking oline who can consistently block.  

when we show that we can run the ball, RBs will start making us a priority.  

it all goes back to the oline which makes guys like shep a priority. 

Edited by crash_davis

It's obviously a concern when you look at the RB situation which seems right now to be a prime opportunity for playing time, but I'll still bemoan Bragg/Leal much more because these were clearly realistic opportunities that did not pan out.

This next fucking season is gonna be huge

 

need to keep ljh and johnson at all costs

D needs to be fixed

possibly hire a real OC

need to win at least 10 games

 

also, need to beat georgia in two weeks

yep.  Missing on Cain sucks.  I am seriously concerned about having 4 scholarship RBs available, that is at least 2 short of what we need in that room.

Anybody put a "for sale" sign up yet on Drayton's house?  Pretty bad that we whiffed on Cain and Sanders given all the energy spent on those 2 ...

Those positions kind of go Hand in Hand....don't they?

I thought we’d capitalize a lot better on the ‘18 class. Time to find some developmental guys.

Disappoint class, but still a pretty good one. Back at it next year. 2020 should be a far better class.

Yeah. 2016 is a long time ago...but I guess that was 2000 yards.

It’s obvious f150s aren’t gonna cut it 

hopefully herman takes a look at today's misses and makes changes to improve our closing %.

We had a 2,000 yard rusher/Doak Walker winner in 2016, but agree we need studs at RB

I won't freak out on the staff about losing a Sanders to an SEC power...

...but losing a Texas boy to Penn State like this? Gross.

I didn't say anything in 2017. And the staff did a great job locking up the 2018 class before the stretch run. They did a great job winning some big-time OOS recruitments in spring and summer.

But if we want to make the leap from great to elite, we need to win some of these big-time recruitments that go the distance.

100%. We need better closers.

If you act like a brat when you get demoted for good reason, you're not exactly helping the team.

I think the big story is our struggles in DFW, a lot of which falls on Drayton. Remember, in 2018 a HUGE percentage of the elite talent was in Houston that cycle.

Hot take.

I'm much more concerned about the simple fact (if true) that Cain was talking to Beck the night before and NOT Drayton because that alone to me says something.

This next fucking season is gonna be huge

Let’s start with the simple stuff.
Tom needs to win the B12 next year.
No excuses.

That will help with the 2020 kids.

Until then, he needs to get rid of non-performing dead weight.

Remember Cain was a Louisiana transplant. The top of this class was filled a lot of weird circumstances. 

Disappoint class, but still a pretty good one. Back at it next year. 2020 should be a far better class.



...very aggyish.

When shep goona drop?
Did he delay his announcement?
Too much pussy juice flowing in past few pages to find it.

It looks like Beck and Carrington were the only recruiters on the offensive side of the ball that were able to get shit done.

Texas boy is a loose definition just like Wilson. Neither grew up in Texas. Hell Cain played in Florida this last year.

He might sign with us today.

He might sign with aggy today.

He might not sign at all today.

Shockingly, he has made this dramatic.

Yeah, I do think Herman needs to rethink his staff and get a closer or 2.  They are "good" at recruiting but not great at closing on highly contested recruitments.  Overall I think this is a good class, but there are some weaknesses on the OL, RB and DL side.  1 commit at RB & OL isn't going to cut it and we still didn't sign any DT's.  We did get some good DE's and maybe 1 or 2 will grow into the DT role, but I don't think we have the luxury of waiting 2-3 years for that to pan out.  Hopefully the misses on the big guns will get Herman moving ... 

On the bright side, Derrian Brown has dreads to we have that going for us.

ive actually grown used to elite texas kids leaving in droves. just not to a place that rapes kids.  thats why I admire the Bru to USC shit,  they fucking blow cock, but hes a life long fan with loyalty and i cant hate on that, our loyalty is tepid and these kids sign elsewhere even while trending upward and having no one to compete at position with.  enjoy beling left out of the playoffs cain

Sweat. Is. Going. To. Play. DT.

300 lb high school DL are usually fat and slow - even Coburn had to lose weight. It's not a plug-and-play position.

There's nothing wrong with thanking these kids for all of the access. Not sure why anyone, especially on a recruiting board, would get their panties in a wad over it.
