2018 Recruiting Board/Thread

Thanks for the info. Like I said on another thread, these motivational tactics were detailed when we hired Herman. Think what you want about them but none of it should be a surprise to the kids or the parents. Get with the program or GTFO but don’t whine about it to hack reporters.

 
 I don't subscribe to OB. But on the shaggy someone posted that Anwar Richardson says that Bonito was about to commit to Texas when he received Chippy's  article from blow u's douch bag coach. 
If that article kept him from signing with Texas than chip may have done us a favor. Don't need a kid like that on the locker room. Shame on chip all the same, but I rather have kids that want to be here 100%.

 
I used to listen to Chip in the mornings until I realized he was a 40 something year old man trying to be hip-hop cool. Erin and Bucky are much better.

I hear what you are saying. But don't underestimate how much "influence" an opposing coach can have when using that type of ammunition on a 17-18 kid.

It wasn't the article that kept the kid from signing. It was a shrewd and ruthless coach that was gifted with "info" that he could use to negatively recruit against Texas. 

If you have read the actual article, as I have, it was a hatchet job plain and simple. And, hell no, there is no way Chip Brown did us a favor with either of the two articles he has written in the past week or so that undermined the Texas coaching staff and Herman. 

And Chip is standing by his story and saying that he didn't even tell everything he could have said. I obviously can't post premium content from another site but you can go over on the Shag and read the article in it's entirety and his asinine response to the backlash he is getting. 

 
And allegedly Steve Buechel has told another poster over there that the article was bullshit.

and chips explanation article digs his hole even deeper.

 
All of this reminds me of when Skip Bayless stated in a DMN article that Aikman was gay. He got run out of town for that one. Perhaps the same needs to be done with Chip.

 
Again from shaggy. CTJ is a long time poster. Goes back in my memory at least to hornsfans.  He may be wrong but he is not a liar.

Chip Brown is allegedly an alcoholic and allegedly has a gambling problem. The rumor circulating is that he published that article in part to pay off gambling debt to someone involved with another program. I'm not writing this to be funny.

What a POS. I could say worse but I’ll leave it alone

I have to disagree there. If the extent of the article was that Herman was a tough coach, that's one thing. But the article also seemed to imply that Herman doesn't give a damn about his players. I can't really blame a 17-year-old kid for being dissuaded in signing with a team where the impression is that the coach doesn't care about them.

Hate to burst your bubble but pretty sure that one was true.
