  1. I don't know that it was just money. Maybe just silly. Anyone who thinks going to Oregon makes them "different" is not the sharpest tool in the shed. He will be transferring by 2027, like Stewart. Don't care if Texas get's him or not. Don't need him. We need D-tackles and O-line guys.
  2. This is how I grew up (my father was a Marine who served three tours in Vietnam), and this is what we gotta have if we want to the national championship. If recruits don't like it, send them Michigan.
  3. Here's why Nike doesn't matter. Recruit and don't whine out. Reminds me of my father talking about serving three tours in Vietnam from 1968 to 1972, including when I was born. Hose em all.
  4. By the way, this stuff that has recently happened in recruiting makes me like Sark more. Until this, I thought he was kind of riding the wave of happenstance, but that ain't the case. He could pay up and make it happen. But he knows you can't give a high school recruit who has never played a down in big league college football more than your current top guys without screwing up the locker room. Man has balls of steel. He's saying these seventeen year olds ain't nothing to him. He's right. Arch is more important than all these guys put together times ten.
  5. If you must go somewhere to "be your own man," then you ain't your own man. What we found out is that DK ain't no Kobe, i.e. he doesn't have the true killer instinct or mentality. Kobe didn't need to go somewhere to be his own man. He went to the Lakers and literally took over from Shaq, who was the most dominant force you could possibly imagine at the time. Everyone was trying to keep him from taking over, but he did anyway. That's being your own man, not going to BFE to get away from something. Let it go. Wingo will be better.
  6. DK ain't Kobe by any stretch. Wingo is better.
  7. Rest easy boys. We got 'em. Goobers who like uniforms or don't like to work for playing time don't matter. We ain't hurting.
  8. If Pettijohn took it as a personal insult that Nansen went after Faraimo, or he is upset about a guaranteed role, specific amount of playing time, whatever, then things other than winning football and competition are driving the bus, and you don't need that, even if you don't get Faraimo. It could just be that he likes other schools more. Regardless, it seems obvious to me that Sark is sticking to his principles even if that means losing out on some high level recruits. He's shown that he will get really good players. He also shown he can make them into a really good team. Let him keep rolling with it.
  9. As a general rule, you can't avoid recruiting a player because someone else you are currently recruiting doesn't like it. Nansen knows what he's doing.
  10. I didn't know about the tragic murder of Del Conte's father.
  11. It seems like Pettijohn started drifting away as soon as Nansen went after Faraimo.
  12. Pretty good write up about Del Conte by Ross Dellenger at Yahoo Sports. https://sports.yahoo.com/its-bigger-and-it-just-means-more-texas-jump-to-the-sec-shows-how-much-college-sports-is-about-to-change-115835101.html
  13. Any idiot who makes a decision on a uniform deserves what they get.
  14. Problem is the criminal sooners won more big 12 titles than you.
  15. Chill nothing. You can't get caught off guard. You think Henry Kissinger was ever caught off guard by the Soviets, Chinese or anyone else? Hell no. Guy had it down to the period, including threating the Soviet Union with nuclear destruction in October 1973 . That's what we gotta have. There ain't no second place finish here. It's true no one player is the end all be all (despite what our guys say about it), but you can't get your ass whipped by a second class state over and over without suffering down the road.
  16. Abbott better talk to Elon Musk about tax breaks. There's no way in hell Oregon can outspend Texas.
  17. Time for Sark to go Michael Corleone on them now.
  18. Might be another Aggies 2022 deal for Oregon. Sounds good getting a bunch of five stars, but having them develop and actually win gams for you is another thing.
  19. You gotta believe that the rest of the nation was caught off guard by Oregon's spending spree here. Can't tell me the Longhorns can't spend more if they really want to.
  20. Can Oregon keep breaking the bank?
  21. Gerry, it's more Kobe.
  22. Michael Cooper was drafted number 60 by the Lakers in 1978. As I said, Jerry West didn't waste picks.
  23. I think JJ Redick will be calling LeBrick daddy in the huddle.
  24. I've been a Lakers fan for almost 50 years, but the Lakers have been stupid since Dr. Buss passed away. It's just bush league nonsense. It's not that big of a deal in terms of the fact you weren't getting anyone anyway, but it's symptomatic of the rot in the organization.
