Not too upset by all this, but I hope they do push a little more in the future for commitments, even if they are a 5 stars. Even considering the decommits, it still helps a little bit beyond a worthless "silent" commit.

(speaking about Sheffield just to clarify)

To be fair, the staff was surprised and disappointed by Sheffield's announcement at the UA game. But, for a guy who had supposedly known he was going to Bama since before the season started, I don't know how the staff could've been "surprised" or "caught off-guard" by it. There was definitely a disconnect there.

Texas produced 3 nationally top 100 players at the CB position this year, and we whiffed on all 3. Doesn't reflect well on Terry Joseph.

That said, if we can get a stud CB over the next week, then all will be forgiven.

Especially knowing it's a position of need and there is a very manageable path to a starting spot day one.

Looch with a glimmer of hope:

quote:

No surprise here but I will say this: I'm not chalking up Kris Boyd ending up signing with the Horns until it happens. Lots of conversations to be had between now and Wednesday and lots of conversations had today. Personally, I think Kris was locked into this co-announcement with Hill and doing it in Austin and probably wasn't quite ready to announce. He seems pretty torn based on everything I've heard.

quote:

I'm not saying Boyd will flip. I'm saying I don't think he was ready to do this (based on what I've heard he's been telling folks throughout the day) but I am saying that I think he'll be one who will remain in consistent contact with the A&M coaching staff between now and Signing Day, which means anything can happen, especially when he was so conflicted to begin with.

I remember the time I exited when I saw a Mcdonalds sign, but wound up enjoying a frosty at the Wendys next door to it instead

And this is why I ain't even trippin'. Not only dis we get Murray, but now we don't have to honor Boyd's little brother scholarship which would have only taken up space.

I think Elam is a stud and definitely the type of CB Chavis wants.

Hill/Boyd really failed at the troll job.... nobody was surprised by that. Longhorns getting a couple of nice players though, can't deny that.
