Always love these recruiting rankings in July lol. Kids sign in Dec. Once season plays out there will be flipmas season not counting still many chess pieces on the board.
Win in the fall rankings go up as kids commit and flip
Also, recruiting has lost half its luster due to instant transfers. So many kids who play or sit first year at chosen school will transfer for money. Its way more wild west than NFL. Can’t lock them in like pro’s.
Great example is last year. We had the top 5*+ QB and he flopped. This year we have a proven transfer along with his coach.
You can fill so many holes via portal. What teams have to do is manage money. Spend all your money on 5*’s and then have to pay them for 3-4 years which is even more money. Leaves less room for depth plus less room for following year recruits. If you low ball their pay year 2 they leave.
What we used to know about recruiting is so different these days. It does not have the same value as it once did. Still need to recruit but can find gems in portal with experience.

9-3 would be a great year with our schedule
What 3 loses? I dont see it. 10-2 minimum but expect 11-1 with a loss we should not have
Please make sure you check in weekly.
I can’t wait until this unravels in your face. 11-1 is pure insanity.

You guys likely will be looking for a new coach.

Unlikely. We are better at managing money than a&m. That’s kind of proven.

That’s not exactly a high bar there, sport.

Well, to clarify even further, it is more likely that we will not be looking for a new coach.

OU is the hardest team to predict. The QB seems solved…

This. Our athletic department has done every single thing in their ability to handcuff our team for the last twenty years and they still didn't do anything this bad.
