SignUp Now!Okay - so our class is in - what do ya'll think?
I agree with the people on Mack. I would have been thrilled if he singed with us but there was that lingering feeling that he's possibly the biggest "me first" guy I've ever seen. Could be as disruptive to a team as he was HS defenses. That aside, does anyone know what it was that happened to sway him to the Rubes? According to a few in the know he was pretty solid Texas up until Monday when he schitzophrenically jumped ship.

Graduate transfer(s) or JUCO? Or, maybe fewer players are transferring out than expected. We still have to meet the 85 total.Why wouldn't he sign. We obviously have room now unless there are surprises left. I just don't see any left at this point
It wasn't just about saving a scholarship with Merrick. He's a very raw player with only a couple of years of football - the thought is that by delaying his enrollment until next Jan they can get him another 12 months of private work with Murray before bringing him on campus and starting his clock. Kid needs all the practice/coaching he can get - but is a big time talent.Graduate transfer(s) or JUCO? Or, maybe fewer players are transferring out than expected. We still have to meet the 85 total.
Gary Patterson would have made him a beast. Glad we won't face him.Really surprised to see Mack go aggy after the way they treated him after his decommit. I thought for sure he was headed to TCU.
