Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Jackcrevol]

@Ericvol2096 how many will we take this cycle?

 

[JCVol00]

Comple

Harmon might be the most talented guy in the room as a freshman. He's going to factor in before Rouse and White...but I get your point. The linebacker room is getting stacked.

Completely forgot about harmon and perlotte lol we are stacked

If the new 105 roster limit is in place, numbers should not be a problem.

 

[TheBigOne10]

Just think abt our lb core next year:

1’s: Carter/Telander
2’s: Spillman/Rouse
3’s: White/Burns


ELITE

Don’t forget Perlotte and Harmon. Elite depth.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Whatever it takes, looks like we are building a defensive monster. With Faizon and the potential O-line haul we are building a strong foundation! GBO

gotta land keys.

 

[MarcoVol]

gotta land keys.

Don’t have to. What if we land him and he transfers after 1 year? What if we get a big time portal WR?

You don't straw man too good.

IF we could flip Keys, that would be a huge boost to this class. So would landing Hiter.

Dalton Knecht has took a beating during Summer league.

 

[Jackcrevol]

This was posted 5 days ago. . . looks like he's beeen a Vol. . .

View of a snowy white Sierra Blanca this morning! Photo taken from our rental house in Ruidoso, New Mexico.

Let us know if you’re ok in the flooding in Ruidoso (following last year’s fires). Rough stretch. We’re keeping you in our thoughts. It looks like you have some elevation at your house. I suppose the lower lying areas got it worst. But maybe the slopes get it badly too depending on the lay of the land. For a relative low-lander like me, it’s weird to think of flooding at nearly 7,000 ft. Be safe, our friend.

Dozens of 3rd-party deals submitted to the NIL clearinghouse remain under review as college leaders negotiate with attorneys over circumvention rules.These negotiations may determine how the new College Sports Commission rules on the flagged NIL deals.

It was never going to work.

Yep but it’s not like there aren’t other ways to fill a void a position like in the past.

When the big guy grabs you, your attack
plan should prob change. Ugh, that was terrible, like watching a very slow nut kick.

Hope that dude was drunk to be that stupid - FAFO on display.

 

[walkenvol]

Ok, morans, I need help. 25th anniversary trip this fall, just the wife and I, kids staying home. Thinking we're going to try something new. Would appreciate any first-hand feedback on either Aruba or Grand Cayman. tyia

European river cruises are nice when going kidless. You’ve likely been to a beach a ton - do something different / special for a milestone like that.

Happy Wednesday

JULY 2025 July 9, 2025: There are things you must do to secure your safety in the days ahead. Now is the time to do all you can do to shore up and prepare for what can or will become reality in your life. God will lead, guide, direct, and protect you as you venture into the unknown. Do not be afraid. Joshua 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.

This is a huge loss for UT. He’s going to be hard to replace.

 

[Billy Antrim]

Don't one of you live out near Ruidoso? @Billy Antrim ?

Hope everything is ok out there.

We actually live in Deming, NM and vacation in Ruidoso several times each summer to escape the desert heat. Fortunately we missed the latest rainfall that resulted in a record 20' above flood stage for the Rio Ruidoso that swept away one house. Thank you for thinking of us!

I remember you mentioning Ruidoso recently. Glad you all were gone for the floods. Some of those videos I've seen look pretty nasty out there.

Fortunately for us we were in Deming during the latest flooding..

You're right, the house that we rent from our friends there is on the mountainside on the eastern part of town, so our friends and their rental property are safe from flooding. We try to avoid driving around low-lying parts of town during flash flood alerts, which come out almost daily these days. It will take at least another year or two before the burn scars start to grow vegetation again. Thank you for thinking of us!

let me append. Keys is that good of a player. Getting he, Hiter, and Blair would help push us into top 6 in rankings on 247.

We can wish cant we.

We were in CO last week, ranch we stayed at had somehow miraculously avoided a 100,000 acre fire in 2021. It sits in a gulch and therefore didnt burn. Owners had removed all dead trees from periphery of property.

Then the flash floods came...

Crazy. Hope you're safe sir.

Wish away. Setting "must get" as a standard is a straw man that can only hurt us.

And Nico was the best QB in a generation, while McCoy was a low 3*. How'd that work out?

 

[Batman1948]

I knew some of those Texas mid schools would start recruiting well. I figured it would be SMU, Baylor, or Texas Tech.

I think I'm gonna start drilling.

Texas Tech is trying to buy a championship in any sport. I believe their first will come from softball. They're buying everyone in softball. Oil money is real guys

Exactly, portal has changed everything.

Doesn’t mean you don’t want the best HS players but 1) how can anyone be confident how long they’ll be on campus and 2) you can fill needs through the portal with a proven commodity (even if they were a lower ranked player coming out of HS)
