I went to high school with this kid, a couple years ahead.  He was the real deal in high school, but tore his ACL his junior year, I think, which put him behind in the recruiting process.  Everything I know or have heard about him points to him being a high character kid who is quite the talent...

I see what you're saying about having the higher seed host the semifinal game which is great for travel, but not good for the away team.  Especially when you consider that a committee opinion is deciding who is the higher seed, it isn't fair to give that much of an advantage to one team.  Many...

Aaron, is there another press conference before the game this weekend?  If so, is that when we would expect to hear anything about this?

Yeah, I actually find it hard to believe that anybody on the team or with some connection to the team would know this early in the week.  My guess is maybe it was a grade thing and he knows that his midterms went well/actually got his grades back, so the guys think it's a done deal and he's back...

It seems there quite a bit of people here who have been brainwashed and indoctrinated from a young age... Glad I'm done with all of that BS.

I'm not sure if you guys listen to the Orange Report, which MBHORNSFAN hosts, but if you did, you would know he is very optimistic about Coach Strong and the University of Texas in general. I think his negative posts about recruiting aren't so much a comment on Coach Strong and Co. at...

I"m glad that this isn't as bad as I first thought, but I'll have to admit, this is pretty disheartening news for the Big 12. I wonder when it will be time to move on?

Despite how bad this recruiting season has seemed, maybe it's not quite as bad as everyone thinks. Here's the link: http://www.dallasnews.com/sports/college-sports/headlines/20140127-everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-texas-longhorns-ahead-of-signing-day.ece
