When I was told Kai Locksley left the team last week, which was confirmed, didn't hear you chime in about my sources
Ketch's 10 Thoughts From the Weekend (The contract for my No.1 expires soon)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
No shit all this was going on three years ago and we got Charlie....hopes will stay right where they need to be, street level.
it's MY list. You don;t get to decide what makes sense on MY list.
That was solid! I wonder how many defections we will have with a regime change...depends on the coach I guess
Coach Royal was coaching Washington and didn't have an elite record. Young, upcoming, detail oriented, seeking excellence and getting the best out of players.
@Ketchum I love that you think Texas big. This board is obsessed with Herman- and to me he is another Sumlin on a good day. (And yes Sumlin looks ok right now, but that too will pass.)
Herman arrived with some great recruits in the bag, he added a few himself- but he also took our scraps (Duke Catalon anyone?). If you run a clean program, and by that I mean bringing in quality athletes that don't end up on the police blotter- generally you don't pick up other schools' scraps.
He has yet to prove himself over 4 years, and he is "hot" because he succeeded with two very impressive bowl wins. But that alone does not make him the sure thing our program needs, especially when you listed 2 or 3 other sure things.

1) The other weird things about the 2015 class is three guys didn't qualify, Cecil Cherry left after a few months, while Ryan Newsome and Kai Locksley are no longer with the team.
2) Like you, it's hard to predict a win outside of Kansas.
3) Some Baylor folks believe UT was responsible for everything that occurred on their campus. Then guys left the program and came here. Baylor is coming here on a mission.
4) That fantasy trade was weird, but I just keep my mouth shut in our league.

You must be really good in your profession bro. Why continue bagging on Anwar? Shit happens get over it.
Maybe if we had Ollie Luck on board, but we don't. The only way I would spend time on Harbaugh is if he reached out to us.
The recruiting class pales in comparison to getting the right coach.
This dude would KILL it here at Texas! He's at the top of my list if I am the person making the call.
I'm all in with you on this, but I think this is where not having a real AD kills us. Who is the person at Texas with the balls and vision to be vetting this stuff right now? I fear we are going to be led by dueling factions of donors.
This is only Herman's second year at UH, and I'm pretty sure every big recruit committed after he got there, and Duke Catalon didn't have off field issues that I recall. He only has one bowl win in one appearance. Otherwise, you nailed it.
I might be one of them. At 2-5, what else is there for me to do?
The 2015 class is turning out to be a head scratcher. As for Baylor, I can verify that. They are pissed and actually believe Texas is what got Briles fired then add their recruits came here, makes it worse. What is perceived is no one outside of UT believed Strong was the right hire and all believe he was a token hire and the money is pulling e strings here. While I know that's that's not the case Strong looking bad now doesn't help.
Just got to my hotel room in Moore OK from Atlanta and ATL was leading when I boarded my plain, what did Dan Quin do? They call him Coach Bro on the radio in Atlanta
That's because your source was right. On the other hand, mystery butthurt high level source, not so much. He was just butthurt and you got played.
He made you look bad, own up to the error in judgement and people will probably move on.
Reckless Kelly-"Sunset Motel"
Also, William Clark Green-"Live at Gruene Hall" is a good listen.

I think that a lot of people read Orangebloods. Great place, lots of good longhorns. Heck, I even like some of the bad longhorns. Except for Slim of course
