Bunk Moreland Posted Thursday at 11:18 PM Share Posted Thursday at 11:18 PM I’m very curious why we are not on this list. The coaches know better than anyone what their needs and preferences are at DT, but this guy feels like a definite take and exactly what they’re looking for. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've no idea who this guy even is or if he is a take, but compared to those teams listed, we have a playoff game in a few days that is of much more importance. He has some decent size for the position, but what is his production like? How many snaps has he played? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tech big money guys are throwing money around this portal cycle. Don't think it matters for them though, because they'll still be a mid tier Big 12 team and McGuire still going to get fired.

PFF has him rated as a top-10 DT in the country this year, so definitely a take. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, I did some reading after this. Apparently he's not much of a pass rusher but he's a great run stopper/lane plugger. Teams had a hard time running the ball with him on the field. Was reading a post by someone who watched a ton of Washington State ball. Have to agree, that you at least kick the tires on him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he could tear it up against that level of competition. Worse QB development there than any program not run by Dabo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read the section of the article on the timing of him leaving. "The 6-foot-5, 230-pound redshirt sophomore entered the transfer portal on Dec. 10 after Duke began recruiting Tulane transfer Darian Mensah, the No. 2 quarterback in ESPN's transfer rankings. Mensah committed to the Blue Devils on Dec. 11." The portal door swings both ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God it's going to be hilarious when they still get their ass handed to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkInAustin Posted Saturday at 02:02 PM Share Posted Saturday at 02:02 PM I will not be quick to dismiss TT. As obviously weird as it would be for normal humans to voluntarily spend a year or more out of a finite lifetime in Lubbock, Tech itself is a comparative oasis in churchy sand land. But this is not volunteer work, it is highly compensated by oil and gas money, and could soon make TT a playoff contender. The road through the B12 to the playoffs has been eased by the realignment. Ultimately Okie Lite, Baylor, TCU, Houston and the rest will have to match TT's aggressiveness in NIL. Can the Kansas schools, Iowa St., the mountain schools and the desert brothers keep up with the oil money? Another road has opened for successful recruiting, BTW. Diego Pavia gets another year of eligibility because JUCO guys now get two years in college to match the two spent in JUCO, as I understood the ruling. So JUCO development is now a freebie and JUCO farm systems like K St used to have will now become relevant again. 21 YO JUCO transfers probably will not demand the same level of NIL while still retaining lots of eligibility. We shall see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realist Horn Posted Sunday at 01:33 AM Share Posted Sunday at 01:33 AM Hopefully someone talked to that Peter Woods guy (Clemson DL) after the game to see if he wants to enter the portal. He would fit in perfectly. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
