I think Jackson canceled his visit to OU, you will see more cancellations.

I will be surprised if Cuffee visits aggy. So Jackson not going to ou is that good news for us or aggie?

Might be better for us since we might not get Cobb.

Higs doesn't think Mark Jackson will go aggy

(obligatory -  nobody should go full aggy.  That's me, not Higs)

This in pretty interesting, since his post-aggy-visit comments were fairly pro-aggy

 

[Juan]

Come on, Charlie. Get Momma Hudson down to Austin!

Throw mama ON the train

Hopefully that is good news for us.

He has a close friend too, who we like

Higs comments on in home visit with Hudson:

"It went very well...Tough to overcome the mom imo, she has been to Baylor about 2-3 times, not once to Texas as we all are aware. She has met Strong once and Briles 2-3 times....Texas is in it for sure but the sense I get is 55-45 Baylor at this time with Texas coming on Strong but will it be enough? Time will tell..."

who? 

 

[Juan]

Strong will (hopefully) in home with him this week too (JMad)

I think pulling Jmad is tougher than getting Hudson. But man can you imagine if Strong pulled both him and Jackson.

If it is a 50-50 or so race I think he sticks with the comfort team which is probably Baylor. 

That 55-45 was Higs

OB is much more positive about our chances with PHud

My point is why are we making so much fun of aggie for accusing Texas of paying players when all we do is accuse SEC teams of dong the same? 

This statement makes the assumption that UT and aggy are the same. They are not.

UT takes pride in how clean we are, at least comparatively. The decision to go to great lengths to stay clean was made long ago. This is why you can chuckle when such accusations take place.

Aggy, OTOH, has a proven track record of the shenanigans that get brought up. No, it's not always true. But you would be amazed at how many times it is.

It wasn't as prevalent when they were in the Big 12. The SEC seems to have rubbed off on them a bit. There are kids on their team right now who, well, engaged them in this way.

Ole Miss, or rather it's close associates, are active like this. Think about it. Decades of mediocrity then all of the sudden they're getting 5-stars starting with Treadwell?

I have always had a personal hatred for moral equivalency arguments.  Ugh

 

[Duke C #11]

Hamm is conceding now that the aggy class will probably be "outside top 20"

So, if you see burning tires or get flooded out in a sea of tears, you will know what it is

A sea of Aggie tears? I guess I'd better shop for a boat...

Here is the quote --

Q -- " ....... Mark Jackson?"

A -- "I can tell you where hes not going, A&M"

He seems pretty sure of himself

 

[Juan]

uh  ... this is their "Assistant Director of Recruiting"

I think sometimes in life it is what it is and I we will just have to agree to disagree on the whole $$ to recruits thing. Also I am not so naive to think that UT does not get involved in these things.  Lets move on and talk recruiting 8 daysto go.
