• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

CFB 2024 offseason thread

@ttyh what is Texas gonna do with QB in this class now that it’s becoming clear that KJ Lacey is trash without Ryan Williams bailing him out constantly? I guess you can live off transfers these days, but you gotta think you still want an elite QB in your recruiting class
 
@ttyh no troll, but I’m genuinely curious: what happened with Keelon Russell? How did UT not have him locked down with him being right down the road?

How did he end up committed to SMU? Was he just flying under the radar and then exploded on to the scene at the end of his junior year?

Not sure. I don’t follow recruiting as much as I used to. We do have Arch through 2025 though, so there’s that.

Kevin Russell? The SMU qb? Not sure, but he is fun to watch. I watched a good chunk of that game yesterday and was impressed w SMU. I could see them in the playoffs.
 
I just looked up Keelon Russell and see he is the Duncanville kid. Maybe he wasn’t interested in Texas? Maybe he’s just not Texas good?

Yeah that’s who I’m talking about. He was committed to SMU for a while and then flipped to Bama at the end of last year. No one was really excited about him, but then he won the elite 11 this past summer and has had a great start to his senior season
 
Zabian Brown shattered the dreams of Georgia so there’s that
I can assure you that Georgia's dreams are still intact. Playing their worst half of football in recent memory, then making a huge comeback, taking the lead, and finally losing a close game on the road is something they can live with. That's much more palatable to a team than beating Georgia, moving to #1 in the rankings, then losing to Vandy and dropping below Georgia in the rankings.
