Assistant Regional Manager

Brent Brennan almost got fired after 1 year last year and they are going to suck this year. That seems like a pretty safe bet. Pittman is probably close behind with the schedule lining up the way it does. I have a tough time seeing an in-season firing for Venables since OU has a pretty manageable start to the season.

I'm all for it, but we need to be sure that the committee doesn't have win/loss column bias, which I don't have a lot of confidence in right now after how we saw them handle SMU and Indiana last year. A 9-3 Texas with an out-of-conference loss to Ohio State should be treated differently than a 10-2 team that played Ball State, Akron, and Western Michigan in non-conference.

What a difference two weeks makes.

I hope he has success and by all accounts he is a nice kid, but something like this isn't that outrageous or super surprising if you followed him since HS. He wasn't exactly drama-free at Texas either. The guy no-showed the East-West Shrine Bowl earlier this year and didn't even provide a reason. That was not a good look. Hopefully he finds his footing in the NFL and can make an impact. Talented player when he can hold onto the ball.

He just went into hiding. Deleted all the tweets and turned his account to private. He called you embarrassing and said you were a sore loser for saying Texas dodged a bullet with Felix Ojo. I’m all good. I can handle the jokes and what not. But it takes just a few minutes of looking that guys posting history to know the type of news that typically brings him online. It doesn’t bring anything productive to the boards.

I still don’t understand why you are on this site when you aren’t a Texas fan and spend more time hiding on twitter trashing the owner of this site than coming on here for actual conversation.

Hopefully Sark knows we have to win this one for message board narratives Real important stuff

Brown, Berymon, Wells, Cleveland and Wesley all announced in June. Turntine and Okpala last week.

We'll see if the juice is worth the squeeze there. Not sure if paying up at RB is the route to go this cycle if we are going to play by the cap.

Quick math says one of Matthews or Rouse moves Texas to 8th on 247. Both moves it to 7th. If both of those go Texas's way, it's hard not to see 6-7th as the floor, considering Texas will be taking at least 25 guys, whether they are flips or senior evals or whatever. They would be the only team in the top 8 besides Bama with fewer than 20 commits.

It ain’t that serious man. No one in the locker room cares about where a 4-star LB is headed and the recruiting world sees Texas as a team with 3 five stars committed headed towards another top 5 level class.

We need 2 5-star tackles? No team "needs" that. They would like that. A tackle class of Turntine, Wright and another top 150-200 level guy is a damn good class when you consider the early feedback on Nick Brooks from last year's class at the tackle spot.

Maybe push for isn’t the right phrase, but the very site said we decided not to match the NIL for Simeon. Don’t think we were sweating Henderson’s decision today knowing that will go all the way to December. Krempin and Roseborough we didn’t have slotted into spots where it was worth the NIL. When Bryce Perry Wright announces for A&M “over Texas” next week are we going to consider that a miss? When we stopped going all in after getting Wesley. Not all decisions are equal.

If you actually believe Texas pushed for and didn’t land all 8 of these guys, you must be new to recruiting. Just because a guy officially visited Texas doesn’t mean it is a “miss” if he doesn’t commit here. Texas brought in 44 official visitors for a class that will under 30 guys.

Unless it was free, it still cost money. And the discount for a 5-star OOS edge rusher probably is full price for a lot of other prospects.
