Also this, aggy did pretty well with total rankings, but lots of filler in there with 27 signees.  We should all be ashamed of ourselves...I, for one, feel like I need to take a bath after watching this go down.  Embarrassing...

Lol, hopefully this lights a fire under the staff to , I see Herman has started heavy on 2018 class ...We need a big season or Texas could see another NSD like this next season

Different era...Kids this generation have State pride, but they'd rather go else where to show it, specially in Texas, but we didn't help ourselves by having losing seasons 

Kids are definitely different these days.  I've seen baseball kids skip their high school seasons to focus on select ball in the summer.  

 

That's just crazy to me.  National, State, and City pride used to be a big deal to all of us including the kids.

With all of the transferring now, signing day is just for show.

They get a ton of attention and sign with the flavor of the month. Go a year, don't get the attention, and transfer.

Just wait until they start getting paid legally.

YUP, follow all the best players. The NBA, for me us unwatchable. We all know who will be in the Finals. Same thing is happening in college football. Anybody wanna make a wager against Alabama being a playoff team?

Texas still had the #2 class in the Big XII.

Not saying much when the big 12 was ranked last out of all power 5 schools...smh but like I said , I'm not going off this years recruiting class for Texas, 

[PhatMack19]

Marvin Wilson signed with Florida St.  Jimbo signed 3 of the top 5 players in the country. 

[PhatMack19]

Emmitt looks good in Maroon.  Maybe he still has some eligibility left.

Good choice among his final 5.  If I could have picked among those for him, that would have been my choice.  Although USF would have been pretty funny.  

[PhatMack19]

Ole Miss must have ran out of cash.  They finished 36th.

 

 Baylor's new coach did a heck of a job to finish with the 32nd ranked class.  He had 1 commit when he was hired.

Not saying much, but the first step for Texas is rising back to the top of the big 12.  This is a decent step in that direction.  Start winning games again and the better talent will come

However much he got paid, it was too much. 

In today's football environment, he would just transfer to BlowU and sit a year.

 

[TXHORN_ET]

Chance Mock being ranked #2 just shows how little that means. I'll give him props for taking over in the 2nd half against Tech and winning that game, but there weren't many other great moments in his career. The other qb was a tad better. What was his name? Oh yeah...Vince Young!

I think ppl are taking this out of context, I feel if anything this is a good thing, the reason Texas is in this place now is because Mack got lax and Texas got soft and stopped working...If a 5* worked like a 2* or no star with a chip on it she shoulder , I guarantee you he would be better for it 

 

i for one one like the quote

It was taken completely out of context.

It was explained by Herman in his NSD press conference. 

Also answered concern about Horny on his staff. 

Very easy to tell who the smartest person in the room is.

Reporters  in Austin should take heed
