Texas Recruiting

I think Texas is still in on some pretty elite players, but I do agree LB and stacking those offensive and defensive lines is a priority.
I think Derion Gulliette momentum is trending A&M's way at the moment as well as TJ Shannahan. Sark will get those skill players and is doing good at the oline, but he has GOT to get the D-Line and LB crew going. I know that is preaching to the choir.

Bell...also hearing Hicks is not making the trip to A&M this weekend and still at OU. That could be a big deal for you guys. Still hoping for the best there, but I was hoping he would drive in later.

I don’t think Shamahan is a high need. We have guards galore. Need tackles. Doesn’t mean he isn’t legit

Braylon Shelby or Gullette. Miss on both and it’s transfer portal again. DL class LY and what we should sign this year is better than it’s been in 12 years.

LB though is a damn travesty.

I’m hearing Venables got 3 silent commits this weekend If I had to guess I’d speculate Hicks and Vickers are 2 of them. Could be wrong though

I could see Vasek and David Stone, but I don't think Hicks is there yet. I truly think he is taking that one to the end. He isn't committing until the Under Armour game...at least as of now. I think he will be visiting both campuses a bit this fall to watch games. He has been to A&M so many times this summer that I'm not overly concerned...but I would have rather had him at A&M obviously.
Are you guys here at Texas pretty confident on Cedric Baxter?? I haven't got to find much info on him as some others. I was hoping for him, but I'm not hearing much from that.
I feel Dalton Brooks and TJ Shannahan will be Ags before the next few days. OU and Texas are both kicking ass and I feel like A&M will still end up top 10.

Hopefully, he can help A&M win a conference championship. It's been since 1998. Come to think of it, that 100 year anniversary is coming up. I bet they put out a commemorative cup for that one. One side, a corp turd yelling in a megaphone, and the other side will be a German tank rolling into Poland.

PK ain't making to the halfway mark. Phat Gare is coming. Ol' Gare, he can negative recruit with the best. The mud is about to sling.

We still have Lefau and Burrell committed. They are no Anthony Hill but they are still highly rated 4 stars. That front 4 dictates a lot of LB play in my opinion. You give me a disruptive front 4 and plug in some decent LBs and we will be alright. We are very thin at that position right now though.

Could be, if Hicks takes another visit then it wasn't him, that's what Venables is holding commits to.
 
Appears vasek is favoring blowu, Hicks up in the air, guillet (sp) favoring us, Shelby elsewhere.
We have some good guys on the dl, but need more.
 
Just read Jordan Matthews Has a crystal ball to the good guys. A top 150 player. He’s a defensive back.

I think Gulliette ends up an Ag. It's starting to trend that way in a hurry. He is supposed to be in College Station tomorrow morning, but I like A&M's chances there WAY better than I did a couple of weeks ago.

Vasek favoring OU is damn embarassing for us! Dad was a UT player and grew up in Austin. No way a kid like that should escape UT.

PK ain't going to make it through this season. He hasn't recruited the DL and LB positions very well. Quite poorly actually. He better coach our guys up if he wants to have any chance of sticking around after this season.
 
Well, he just committed to A&M so there goes that one! It's never over until it's over, but I will take it.
Good pickup if he sticks with his commitment. Aggies will continue to have the recruiting and NIL edge until we join the SEC. Guys like Hill and Hicks don't want to wait 2 full seasons before competing with SEC schools. However, all of these recruits will need to be on flip watch until they actually sign in December. Still a lot could happen - Aggies could go under NCAA investigation or UT could flop their way to another 5-7 season. Just have to wait until everything is official.

Holy shyt. My 88 year old mom came into my room to bring me a plate of chicken nuggets and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of chicken nuggets out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I'm so distressed right now I don't know what to do. I didn't mean to do that to my mom but I'm literally in shock from Hill committing to Aggy. I feel like I'm going to explode. Why the fvcking fvck is he going there? This can't be happening. I'm having a fvcking breakdown. I don't want to believe the world is so corrupt. I want a future to believe in. I want Hill to be a Longhorn and fix this broken football team. I cannot fvcking deal with this right now. It wasn't supposed to be like this, I thought Sark was recruiting well in North Texas???? This is so fvcked.

Okay, okay...after some much needed drinks, my doomerness is gone. We winnin errrrthang!!!!!

Why was your 88 year old mother fixing you a plate of chicken nuggets?

Tapp, Finkley, Bledsoe, Ross, Brown and Swanson were all 4 star defensive lineman from last years class. Last years class was really good. Why does everyone think we have to have 5 stars or bust?

I needed some help after falling to my knees in Wal-Mart when the Hill news broke. My mother's a saint so don't go there about my momma!

LOL! I'm just trying to trivialize the seriousness all these grown ass men like me treat recruiting season. We all know half these recruits aren't going to develop into much of anything. You still got to play the game the right way and build the right culture. It's going to be very interesting to watch how schools try to control these highly paid 18 year old kids. It's already happening at USC where some recruits are whining about the terms changing on the financial commitments that were made. It's bound to happen at a lot more places than USC. We shall see.

All this time you’ve been wetting your pants about that guy??? Lol. I’m truly sorry brother. Is it too late to beg Riley to come back? 😂 😂 😂
Riley may be on the verge of losing his Qb commit and 2 best wr commits to Bama, I have a feeling his butt is puckered a little tight right now. His qb already took a visit to A&M this weekend. Venables is already recruiting better that Riley did on both sides of the ball, we don’t want his soft ass. He could recruit the offense no doubt though

You and your OU faithful have an unhealthy obsession with what LR has going on. Give it a rest because we honestly don’t care over here.

I really don’t care what you care about, got it?you’ve been bumping your gums about Venables but never post anything of substance regarding how he’ll fare. Put up or shut up. Did I bring up Riley or was I responding? Don’t read or respond to my posts if you don’t like them.

Nobody here gives a shit about Venables, OU football, or Lincoln Riley. This is a Texas board in case you have forgotten.
