We got a verbal from the #1 player in the nation (2022)

You guys are missing the big picture. For once, we got the best recruit and Bama is picking up our sloppy seconds.

Remember we were worried about losing our top recruit (Bijan) last year too? We won that battle against top competition (aOSU if I recall correctly).

In short, we are 2 for 2 as of late on high-high profile athletes.

No offense mc, but TH also missed out on the B's, Donovan Jackson, Landon Jackson, JoJo Earle and a few others. Mack might have missed out on one of those, but not all.

Maybe the tide is turning with the momentum from Ewers, but TH still has a ways to go to be there with Bama, OSU, LSU who have been stealing the best players from Texas.
 
LH,

Don’t know you or how old you are, but you sound like a ******* Aggie

If you are going to represent The University of Texas, a little class and dignity would be greatly appreciated.
 
Nope, never met the kid. I just wish we showed a little more class, before it bites us on the butt if proven one of the coaches pulled a "no-no". You don't know the answer, neither do I nor any other poster on this board.

I posted it a few years back about Sumin because I knew the truth, and when it came out, Sumlin was fired after he lost multiple top ranked QBs.

Rather not see our recruiting efforts destroyed by such events, particularly perpetrated by overpaid staff members.
 
I'd simply rather we wished a decommit well, moved on, and showed the group maturity to not bash a teenager for changing their mind.

Now if that teenager pulls a Perriloux, then sure, he's fair game.

I don't get the issue with the Portal. Why have a malcontent hanging around for 2 - 3 years? Yes you recruited him, but for whatever reason he isn't happy down the playing order. The Portal is a way to get him out of there to keep locker room issues down and free up a scholarship.

I never thought of it this way, actually good point.

Geez, Perrilox ,, that was a epic fail that turned out to be a blessing.

We are far from 2 for 2. More like 2 for 15 or 2 for 20.
 
I have no problem with Milroe decommiting, my biggest issue is the actions of the Brocks, they are 100% *** and I now wish them no success. They can suck it for all I care.

I can't blame Milroe for reading the tea leaves and moving on, any QB in this class would be a place holder and nothing more. Hell 2023 recruiting is going to be equally as tough, try to get someone to follow Ewers is going to be tough.

Unless it's this tequila right here. Your margaritas will never be the same.

That's not tequila. It's a tequila-based liqueur.

Hmmm, I guess you're right. You would know. Someone bought some for me and I liked it, so I got more.

The website says: A 100% blue agave tequila blended with essence of the Damiana flower.

Anyway, it sure is good.

I think MCs point is there are some good things happening that havent been happening for awhile. We should celebrate those things. Acknowledging or celebrating those newly re-emerging instances or trends doesnt preclude you from also being able to point out where we are still lagging or lacking. I dont view it as an either or.
I do get your point though...We have a ways to go to be "back".
(Ooh I hate that word)
