    2024 2024 DE Colin Simmons receives offer (commits to Texas)

    I don't think someone needs to be fired but the whole system of allotting funds needs to be rehauled. A different approach is needed because next year, we'll need a top flight QB, top notch DBs and those positions don't come cheap. We'll be in the same situation if we don't change our approach...

    So? We were 5-7 last year. Time to shake things up

    2024 2024 DE Colin Simmons receives offer (commits to Texas)

    In a recruiting year that was supposed to be heavy on the DL, we might only end up with: Russell (productive player but a bit of a tweener) Rudolph (205 pound DE) Lightfoot (great prospect, but will have to hold off OsU until the end) AJones (great prospect, but will have to hold off FSU until...

    100%. This is a money game. If you're not willing to occasionally pay a bit extra for a top notch player, then more often than not, you're gonna lose out. And, our board was full of top notch players especially at DL since it was THE position Mario wanted addressed. IF that's the case, why...

    Interestingly, Redding was part of a recent interview (I think Manny's Atlantic article) and the question to players was "what are you doing with your NIL money?" and Redding's answer was "I don't get an NIL". Thought it was odd.

    I think it's a combo of prices being wrong and we don't have as strong of an NIL as other schools. Remember also that it's also still a bag game but it gets murkier with NILs. JMO

    So we're gonna use the savings with not getting Simmons and use that added NIL to land Stone/Franklin. Right? Guysm?

    lol, if he really did say this, it's straight out of the website crooting guy playbook.

    For folks that say this, they're just setting the narrative for when the kid picks Texas. Then it becomes a new narrative for them (for clicks, of course) - "we were leading but Texas came through with a big offer at the 11th hour". etc etc

    "It could get interesting today!!!" "are we gonna land him?!?!" "nah, I don't really know but this is fun!"

    2024 2024 DE Colin Simmons receives offer (commits to Texas)

    Thanks, Geo. I'm curious. Why were we fading in June when he did his OV in early June? And, as for July/Aug, he didn't even visit so what changed? Perhaps losing out on guys like Scott/Stewart/et al allowed us to raise his NIL? If that's the reason we were stronger in July/August, then it...

    Didn’t he popularize the infamous “second wave” meme?

    Maybe it’s 5%. Lol In all seriousness, those %s are dumb. Remember the Francis %s last year? We were < 20% IIRC

    Who says it's going to be a shock? Recruits love hyping stuff up about shocking the world when at the end of the day, they make the predictable piclk

    I'm thinking: Hometown team + $$ = Colin Simmons

    The best is when one of the LSU gurus lowered his confidence rating (for LSU) from 60 to 55%. LOL
