ThatHornsGuy87 Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 Well that certainly is disappointing Quote

TTown Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 I'm pretty even keeled about the ups and downs of recruiting. But if Gerry shows this concern then I take notice. As I know he is damn good at what he does, and his instincts. Wednesday can't get here soon enough ha! Quote
Orngblud05 Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 Maybe call pettijohn and Sanchez and see if they answer. 2 Quote
WG Carter Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 Trust our coaches...believe we will pivot if we lose him to others. Also will be aggressive in portal Quote

Hornmatic Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 I would love to have a talent like Charles in the class but he’s always been quite flighty. Be interesting to see how his career plays out. Quote
4thandFive Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 I don’t think it’s overreaction…if Gerry is concerned, there’s a problem. 1 Quote

Also will be aggressive in portal Expand You can’t hope and expect to get tackles in the portal after losing DT recruiting battles. At some point we are going to need to be more aggressive in our NIL at this spot. We just are. If you want to compete at the highest level this is the spot. Texas shouldn’t get outgunned anyway for guys they want Not in the NIL age. 3 1 Quote

DanielOnorato Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 I hope Charles reconsiders and sticks with Texas but it's too early to panic. I never would have expected Jermayne Lole to be as valuable and cost effective as he's been when many would have preferred to overpay for guys like Bear Alexander prior. Trust the process and trust in Sark! 🤘 1 Quote
FatherofMinky Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 Certainly disappointing…if I’m Kenny Baker I’m hopping on a plane to FL after whooping some Aggie ass tonight Quote
horns96 Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 This is the stuff that you have to tolerate with OOS recruiting. Everyone is working against you to keep kids home. 1 Quote
hookemrj13 Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 Also I tend to think on the positive side of things in recruiting. Maybe he heard that Terry is 🤫 and doesn't want to compete with that 1 Quote
goattalk100 Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 I mean we did just land Mbatchou, who was previously in the Florida class so there’s a need there. If we keep Sharma & Mbatchou in the class (extremely likely) then we’re still in a strong spot. I think we get two more DL commits before/on signing day & then portal another couple. I’m not worried, even though the loss sucks. Quote
pskjace Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 It’s pretty simple in DL recruiting especially in the southeast. Decisions are made almost entirely around NIL. The programs who push all their chips into DL recruiting in the final weeks before signing day get the top guys. The ones who don’t go all in don’t get the must have dudes. Georgia, Auburn, Alabama, and now seemingly Florida understand this. Quote

WestlakeLonghorn Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Our Dline recruiting has fallen apart. What a mess. Quote
