Just don’t be shocked if this doesn’t happen on Wednesday. It could but how many times do 17 year old kids have to surprise us before we learn that it’s not always cut and dry. Oh I hear you. His mom posted pics of him growing up and said the family’s dream is coming true. Maybe SHE is getting played by her son, Like the safety from Baton Rouge did his LSU loving momma 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just saying that it might not be Wednesday. That’s a very strong 180 on his stance and those impulsive decisions from recruits rarely stick is all I’m saying. This caught EVERYONE off guard. Jimbo didn’t even use an in home on him that’s how sure they were this would at least stretch until feb. now I’m sure sark orchestrated it that way, but Jimbo I highly doubt a guy with the recruiting skins on the wall as Jimbo was that blindsided by this. I think the kid meant it yesterday when he said he was waiting just like I think he meant it today when he said he wasn’t. But I could also see him being in Cancun and not signing… just a 50/50 deal on how he feels when he wakes up in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be where he wanted to be all along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was the case he had more than enough time for this… nothing happened in the last 24 hours to change any of that. It’s impulsive to change your mind in less than 24 hours… regardless of his feelings about Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigj Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Didn’t Ewers and Evan want to play together at one point? I believe after Ewers committed the first time Evans jumped on board right afterwards… Would that happen again… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wanted Texas but the intrigue of nike$ U drew him away from Texas. Now that Mario isn’t going to be there, maybe the $150k a year (minimum) has some appeal after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschool32 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 A&M has a massive class im glad Texas is getting a little love. Definitely glad to see our top level Texas kids staying home regardless of whether it's at A&M or UT. Build the teams up until the rivalry comes back great for the state as a whole. Wayyyy to many kids going out of state. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the only reason Oregon was in the picture at all. The NIL legalization was announced and then he committed to Oregon less than a week later. He for sure got a crazy Nike offer. It’s also telling that he was very open to A&M just days ago and right after Texas announced its NIL stuff he commits to them. He is definitely a gun for hire kind of guy.

Do it. Until the rules are specified, caps are applied, or something better is done it is an open can of worms. I personally like the way Texas has lined it up. The minimum is already known when you sign with Texas. The rest is up to you and your abilities 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just do not think it’s the long term solution that’s going to fix the current problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustAFan11 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Texas finished 2nd in July for both Banks and Williams. Now a few days before NSD1 they are both in the class. Great job of continuing to recruit them until the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that Texas is getting to do this. What will be the answer when you get to throw money at it and still only win 5-7 games? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
