2023 Recruiting Board/Thread

2019. How is this really important now?

I'd suggest to you that 98% of the posts on this board are not "really important."

I posted the graphic to give an idea of what is spent on recruiting and who spent the most. I don't think such a graphic has ever been posted here that I have seen.

Curious what goes into the numbers and is it all categorized the same due to NCAA rules?  I don't see it being just official visits.  Does itI include helicopter visits and private jets for the coaches?

It includes everything spent on recruiting.

I found it very interesting, and an indictment of Herman. TX is #1 in revenue,  but in 2019 they were #13 in recruiting spending,  and were outspent 3 to 1 by Georgia. 

If TX wants to win they need to use all of the natural advantages they have.

Might not have all been on Herman. The budget may be approved somewhere else.

Not sure how it works, but I would think that if Herman pushed hard on the AD we wouldn't have been #13 in spending.

Georgia spent more and still lost.

Herman could have pushed hard for a lot of things and not got them. He had personality issues.

That was 2019, and they won the 2021 national championship,  so I'm not sure I understand what they still lost? 

Obviously recruiting isn't all about money,  but I'm guessing it helps

I guess if true that demonstrates my point that being outspent 3:1 on recruiting is an indictment of Herman.

Lost ?

 

[Sirhornsalot]

D. Williams has arrived.

 

[Eastexhorn]

Yeah Georgia lost to Herman who spent less.

 

[Wayne]

Yeah Georgia lost to Herman who spent less.

And he lost twice to Maryland who spent less than Texas. 

 

[dssl]

Yeah Georgia lost to Herman who spent less.

No question about it Herman was money in the bowls. That was a great win, Georgia definitely got more of a game then they were ready for.  The singular high point for Herman. 

 

[Billybass]

Yes he was good in bowls, but we were never in contention for a natty. And that is not going to work for long at Texas

Some how can not edit so Wayne good point.
