Another 2019 DE offer out. He happens to have the same first name as my 88 year old grandmother:

NaNa Osafo-Mensah Highlights

Note: That's not actually my grandmother's name. We just call her "Nana."

And last, but not least, we offered a 2019 Safety:

Demani Richardson Highlights

Oddly enough, one of the Texas Tech mods CB'd Richardson to Alabama on January 29th.

Quay Walker's high school is having a signing day ceremony at 11:00 AM on Wednesday. I guess we'll know where he ends up then.

What's up TS, Magilla and all. I took a long break after HZT but will lurk from time to time.

Just got a job in St. Paul, MN so I'm out here for the Super Bowl (where hopefully my Pats bring home another lombardi).

It looks like you've all done a great job with this thread surpassing the OG Megathread.

Why panic over something that appears inevitable? The kid has been looking to go elsewhere since the day he committed. I'm sure Pruitt has encouraged him to flip on NSD for publicity reasons.


Fair, panic was probably too strong of a word, and I meant it more as in I panicked because I couldn't find the information. I do, however, think we badly need a LB.

But more generally, to me, I don't know why I would follow this board on a day-to-day basis if not for the drama and to get irrationally too excited or upset based on every little sourced or unsourced tweet, article, or message board post? I could easily find the basics elsewhere. But I find everything else that surrounds recruiting to be very entertaining.

Do you remember how many pages it had? No one seems to know.

They removed all traces of it too so we can't go back and look at it.

Bastards.

From Brian Perroni:

There was some hope by Aggies that Jaylen Waddle would join O’Neal in making an unofficial visit this weekend but I’ve been told by a source that he will not he headed to town. It is still a toss-up between A&M and Alabama. Bobby Brown did make it, though, for his unofficial.

It was the 2013 one correct? I'll check my post history to see if there's any mention.

2013 had 1,058 pages but the thread hasn't been deleted so the OG Megathread must've been 2012.

Brian Perroni is reporting Vernon Jackson made it to A&M for his official visit as planned. Apparently Jackson was really sick this past week, but he still made it in.

Perroni also said Jackson made an unofficial visit to College Station a few weeks ago and had to drive through a snowstorm to get there.

He gone.

Sounds about right.

It was on the SEC Recruiting Board too.

Maybe I'm Gumping a little hard, but why would any defensive player ever give even half a thought to playing for fricking Jimbo when they could play for Saban. We had as many 1st round picks on defense last year as Jimbo has had during his entire career as a HC. He's basically Petrino with the ability to recruit.
