Kaydon Finley Disrespects Texas before Selecting Notre Dame

Especially with a legacy, it’s beyond mind boggling to see the classless disrespect for his dad’s Alma mater, who recruited him hard, why would Kaydon throw the Texas hat on the ground?    For the hundreds of hours of time and all the money invested by schools in their recruitment, this crap reflects low character imho.

It’s not that deep. It’s a teenager picking a school on one of the best days of his life.  He did not set out to disrespect Texas.

Or maybe you’re just that shallow? How deep does it need to be to have class or respect?

Fully appreciate it’s one of the best days of his life.   There’s a right way and wrong way to do things in the moment, imo.   
 

Ojo was a different level of classless with all the deception beforehand combined with the way he did his announcement.   I’m not suggesting Finley comes close to Ojo, just think he could be better, especially given how great of a legacy his dad built at UT.

Why post this stupid crap go touch grass or go to orange bloods

Wait, you guys are …well is that what he did? I didn’t see it. IF he did throw it on the ground then yes he did disrespect Texas which is different than if it bothers the poster or me ,for that matter, that he did.

Not a good look.

Ok. I think you are making a mountain of a molehill.

Sounds like an insecure kid trying to make a statement and failing miserably.  He could have attended Texas if he was not so interested in the bag and being fawned over by a coaching staff.

[Bevo92]

Watching different announcement ceremonies each year, it’s impressive to see kids (regardless of whether they choose Texas or another school) who show a lot of class and character, who are transparent and honest throughout the process then show humility, respect and gratitude (at the time of their decision announcement) for each of the schools who rolled out the red carpet for them over a multi-year process.    The ‘hat fake’ is tired at this point, imho.

Not gone lie I thought it was extremely disrespectful and it made me look at him different 

[tmataya]

These guys are going to learn it’s not wise to burn bridges. How do they know some day these college coaches aren’t in the NFL or what if they are in the portal and they look to play for one of them? Or how about getting a job with a Longhorn alumni that saw the video? Just not a wise move. Could even hurt their NIL opportunities?

no class 

[thatdude2]

Probably feels that Texas has disrespected him

If that's how he feels... cool. If Pop's gon let him get down like that, cool. My Horns saw that. The recruiting class saw that. Jalen and James Lott saw it, too. They also watched Ojo play games, too. 

At the end of the day... handle your business and hope they land on the schedule in the playoffs. Settle it on the field and make him regret it. Period. 

As for Pop's.... he's just being a dad... but he gets the smallest steak at the alumni gatherings, no cap!🤘🏿

These dudes get caught up in the moment. No big deal.

Agreed but glad there was a thread about it. I think pretty much every longhorns fan will root for the finleys even at notre Dame. Just odd to toss a Texas hat to the ground. 

It's water under the bridge but would have been much more fitting had he tossed an A and M hat.

One of the few times I disagree with you. Although it's not a big deal it's odd behavior by the kid. 

We'll see how he does in that system with their average QBs. 

Not a kid I'd recruit through the whistle or accept in the portal for that move. Alright I'll smoke grass.

I'll root against him.  Phuck him.  Players that go out of their way, like Petersen, to disrespect Texas I consider to be a**holes.  I hope him and his phaggot dyed hair freeze in Indiana.

Do you recall a kid picking Texas who greatly disrespected another school in the process? Or could have done it “better”? Didn’t think so.
