Hey man, at least we aren’t losing recruits to like baylor and tcu anymore. And that was before NIL I don’t know how the hell I became a fan during the Charlie Strong Era.

Felix Ojo will announce his decision on July 4th, per Hayes Fawcett.

Same here 😂😂😂

Me too… lol

That’s me just watching these threads.

Lmao damn right

Let's revisit in December. I have a feeling we will all be happy with recruiting.

I’d be disappointed with anything less.

Felt that 😂😂

Earl Thomas made almost $80 million: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/earnings/_/id/6523/earl-thomas

Hope so. If we get Guervil I’ll feel pretty good still. Priority position, expensive to replace in the portal, we were suppose to get him, should be a good barometer.

This is me pulling up to talkin ball tonight

We have new folks running the show. This is not your old Admin. These folks knew exactly what they were in for when they went all in to join the SEC. They are all in on winning as well. Read into that what you will. Eltife me.

Texas has 3 DL and an edge already committed, not super concerned RB and LB ones to keep an eye on

This season is incredibly important. Imo, Sark’s recruiting strategy puts pressure on us to stay consistent while other teams falter. If we win the natty this year that will set us up for a dynastic run

Like Ric Flair has been doing at Tampa area restaurants (allegedly)?

Yes, compliance department?? Heard of it ?

You’re right, but it seems that we are leading for some recruits and at the last minute another school swoops in and takes them. I am assuming it’s NIL, or a bag. And the SEC has always been good at that. It’s because I trust our recruiters that I think this is true. The rules are the only thing that has charged since last couple of stellar years (we are still doing pretty good). Just think we might need to adjust, other schools are. As pointed out in the Sunday conversation.

Compliance? Lol. OK.

Again, I agree. I’m not saying they are idiots. They are the same recruiters that are winning battles still. They just seem to be losing these battles at the last minute to cheaters. SEC has been cheating a LONG time. This is how they like it. UTs compliance doesn’t care about football, they care about law suits. So we need to find a work around that is legal. Hope they do, and I’m sure someone is on it.

I can’t wait!

How do you know Texas isn't doing that? You're making alot of assumptions and don't know what is truly being offered by Texas to these recruits.

That's what I'm saying. Fong is so good at his job he's got 'em leaning in here lol dudes having a good chuckle somewhere knowing these predictions will have some feeling some type of way

okay, everyone's going to say 'go get him sark' but let's try to look at this with the most realistic lens. we know the high end recruits' main criteria these days are 1) how can i get the most nil $, in 2) a system that will highlight my talents, and 3) not be in an over-crowded room because I want to play early (particularly true for skill position players). relationships matter, but only to an extent. same with location. with that said, taking out pure NIL: 1) Texas - great system with proven RB production with recent draft picks, room will have some talent, but no big dawg 5 star underclassmen left over. If wisner or baxter come back, may only be for a year. 2) tOSU - great system with proven RB production and recent draft pick, 4 star RB Akih committed for 2026. in 2025 4 starts Bo Jackson and Anthony Rogers, 3 start Isaiah West still in on stud RB Hiter who is likely leaning Tennesee or Michigan. overall, a very similar situation to Texas 3) Georgia - great system with proven RB production and recent draft pick, 4 start Lamar commited for 2026. in 2025 4 star Bo Walker. again, overall a very similar situation to Texas 4) Miami - by far the weakest system and shakiest coaching situation. 4 start Mallory committed for 2026. in 2025 4 star Girard Pringle and 3 star Charmar Brown. So in summary, 3 great options with similar situations, 1 closer to home. The other 3 have RBs committed, but that shouldn't matter to an elite talent. All 4 could potentially decide to "go big" and shut down the recruitment. Texas is playing from behind with given the lack of an official visit, but a visit could provide a wow factor. Another gird up your loins recruitment, but let's get him on freakin campus.

Maybe. But is there really any rules on this? I doubt it. And if their are. They are minimal. Either way I'm amazed that the staff who got us the #1 class and top 3 classes are all idiots now according to fans.
