You doubt a kid who says he's 30-40% committed to flip but think the team that sold out by hiring coaches and getting teammates/brothers for the DTs will flip?
I have confidence in A&M's recent OL history (back to back to back (to back?) first round tackles), Kyler, and new OL coach.
I don't have confidence in UH. They're new stadium sucks. Their other facilities are even worse. The campus is in the hood. Hiring someone HS coach doesn't always work out. Even if they don't flip I don't expect them to finish their college careers there.

Yeah, not making any sense.
Kid who openly states he isnt even 50% committed and is taking visits everywhere is more likely to stick than a couple kids who's high school coach/teammates/brothers are at the school they are committed to and havent wavered a bit since committing.

I really don't care if you do not agree with who I think it going to flip or not.

FTR after Little's visits to OM and Bama, he said both visits were about the same, and that he's "definitely an Ag commit".
He's a top 10 national recruit, he's going to take visits, he's going to play the game.

Reminds me of the paradox on the Silicon Valley ep from 2 weeks ago. A cat is in a box but you dont know if its alive or dead. Therefore it could be alive, you dont know. If you open the box and the cat is dead then in a way you killed it.

Yes, the first place that paradox ever appeared ever was on an episode of Silicon Valley.

Strong always a slow starter. He was slow last year and ended up essentially in the same place as the Ags. Nothing to sweat about.
He's still got a year of breathing room.
And Stanford staying a player.

Strong wasn't getting anything on his own, the bagmen decided to step up the last month. Guys visiting for the first time in January, that weren't interested all year, that's not suspicious. The Arkansas game really piqued their interest.
This year texas isn't even making most kids top 10s. Whatever recruits you get will be feathering the nest for the next coach.
He is getting about 10% of our head to head offers right now, and that number is getting worse not better.
He's rubbed TX HS coaches the wrong way from the start.
Yall signed a bunch more kids last year and have like 5 not making it to campus.
This is a no spin zone Oman.

Eh, bookmark it. Both of my little underachieving teams are going to end up with better classes than A&M.

Yes because the ep didnt clearly say it was an old paradox. Not sure why you are going out of your way to be a douche. Maybe it just comes naturally.

Hopefully we can land DJack in this class and Jeffrey Okudah (looks likely) in 2017, to go along with Big Hulk. Bama making a killing in Texas!

The list of commits in that top 25 is going to be different come NSD than it does now. I know that is stating the obvious, but sometimes the obvious needs to be said.
Texas and Texas A&M will get more commits on that list than they have right now.

no one is going to be shut out of Texas. There's too many prospects.
Honestly there hasn't even been a significant uptick. Bama and LSU have always gotten 3-6 kids a year. The state can generally supply 2 top 10ish classes, 2-3 more top 25ish classes and that's with other elite programs taking a couple here or there. Much like any talent rich state.

Are we done in Texas for 2016?
I know we look really good for some of their Top 10 for 2017. In a really good spot with Top Texas prospects, #1 DT Marvin Wilson and #3 RB Toneil Carter. I'm sure there will a couple more takes.

Outside of any surprises or late offers, more than likely yes.
I think Deontay Anderson is the biggest lean our way of anyone left we are really recruiting from TX, but with how stacked the DB class has gotten and the press for Mullen and Fulton he will likely end up at Ole Miss or elsewhere.
Ross Blacklock I think is also another name to watch for if we miss on Lawrence or Taylor in-state.

IMO, I don't see Anderson coming since Monroe committed.
We shall see. Texas has been pretty good to us these past few cycles.
