50/50 before the official visit? Yeah, he's as good as gone then.

Hard to imagine that his folks aren't so star struck during the visit that they overwhelm him with all things Horns.

It's funny cause it's true. It's funnytrue

Honestly, I think he really wants to go to Tennessee, but I don't think he wants to deal with his parents, especially his dad, if he doesn't choose Texas.

You might as well make a pot of coffee and get comfortable...

I assume that you have given up now and accepted that he will be a Horn.:unsure:

Different positions, but would you trade Santos for Leggett (assuming the later gets by the academic hurdles, etc.)?

Hate these kinds of things. Parents living vicariously or trying to force an adult (he's 18) into a decision he may not want. Very irritating and happens much too often.

That 99.9% disappeared quicker than a fart in the wind(I think I heard that saying here on VN).lol:

Agreed. I feel bad for the kid.

Do you think Texas will let him play LB? or better yet does his dad think Texas will let him play LB? I just can't figure that one out... Plus I wonder if he can play DE when the horns finally convince he that is where they think he should play after riding the bench.. He is a beast, but it is really hard for me to see him chasing receivers all game...

So are you hearing anything different than we already know about Santos??

Yeah. Him and O'Brien have decided not to sleep in bunk beds this year.

Why hell yes I would. Anymore? I like this game.

There's always the chance the Horns fumble something during the visit.

Here's what Dalton is telling daddy after the visit.

I don't think Texas is going to let him play linebacker. I just don't see that happening.

I don't know what his dad thinks about that. Sorry.

That looks far more likely at the moment, imo. Seems like a solid trade for the weekend, if that's how it unfolds.

And this is exactly what I was worried about!! The kid really wants to go to one place, but so that he doesn't upset anyone or disappoint his family, he chooses a different school to please them. I think that being an unselfish person is a great trait to have; however, this is one decision where you need to be a little bit selfish.

That's exactly what pi$$es me off about the whole situation..I have been b****ing about that ever since this whole Texas situation started.:realmad:

I said it many times. Got it from Shawshank redemption. "man ups and vanishes like a fart in the wind". My all time fav movie.

And yeah it did.

Well, it's not like they even play defense in the Big 12. So, I don't see why they can't just line him up at any position.

I don't drink coffee, but I have plenty of Dr.Pepper available.:thumbsup:

Eventually, i will need to go to bed, but not right now.:blink:

 

[bucball2483]

I won't be surprised one way or the other. I just hope he makes the best decision for HIM. I'm gone for the night, guys. Have a good one.
