A lot of y'all simply aren’t built for the recruiting game. Legislation, NIL, bags coming back strong, transfer portal, etc. It’s all in transition but Texas will get a very good to elite class every year so long as it stays interested in winning. Wanting vs needing vs getting a top 3 elite class every year isn’t realistic or even necessary to compete for championships annually. Right fit and above average players should be the floor.

Recruiting ain’t for everyone

T&F

Uhh, we lost the next game. Let’s burn some sage and delete this post. 🤘🏽

Refs and umps are close

Maybe sit recruiting out. It’s just a game. We’re going to “lose” others we think are Texas and gain some we didn’t. We should always celebrate a commitment while crossing our fingers. 80+% stay with Texas after committing. If it’s a true blue chip, folks give themselves a little hope with December dreams. Ain’t rocket science. This dude is gone I think as even ga fans are befuddled. Money is money to a lot of people. Though it’s not my primary motive, I don’t begrudge it even when I don’t understand it. He would have made top money at ga or Texas so that check must have been heavy. Good for Texas having limits. Money is finite regardless of what fans think.

So we’re crying about mb crying? The right people see him for who he is and wouldn’t let him impact the program today. Someone in his inner cycle continuously lets him down. These quotes don’t help anyone but they kinda ensure he won’t have much weight here if he is involved. If he could make peace and be a perpetual fundraiser, I think he’d be a hit. Kissing babies, story regaling, brand reinforcing, etc. The pasture is hard to reconcile after a life of high success and being in charge. He’s earned some rope but not a seat at the final table imo.

Love your optimism and hope you’re right regardless of what I anticipate.

Is average-above average looking down?

Our ends, backers, and safeties will be elite if healthy. Our DTs will be serviceable to above average. Corners could hit but we’ll have to see.

Y’all aren’t wrong about atm but more than once he says one of the premier programs. Nothing burger.

You want to fix the committee, not the independent status. The right committee handles anyone’s weak schedule.

If Texas were independent, none of you would want to be forced into a conference. That’s not why I don’t care what ND does. At some point, an overly weak schedule will have a negative impact as someone said. I can’t see a world where a sec team has 1 loss and a weakly scheduled undefeated ND is chosen over them especially if the loss was to a strong opponent. Or if it did happen, that would be the rock that corrects the ripple. This is a dye in wool May topic. 🤘🏽

Only concerned with Texas. We chose to join a tough league so now we need to win it. We do, we’re in.

Thank you. I’ll make sure I follow this. I’m also in ga and had my pellets outside in one of the airtight containers but it’s super humid here so I’ll try to bring it in.
