Oh...like for real? My bad. You were talking about being "stung" if we miss out on both, and I just thought I'd add more bullsh!t.

Yep. That would sting. Did I ever say we were going to miss out on both?

The answer is no in case you’re lazy.

Talking about "stinging" with '25 recruits = you're tuning yourself up. You're already using the ole "in-state", I see. That didn't take long.

Well good thing I never said we were going to miss out on both then, right?

Keep saying that to yourself; maybe you'll keep some weight on and be able to keep it to 3 packs a day by Signing Day '25.

And, some people like to have thoughts of, and make comments about something "stinging", that won't actually "sting", if it "stings" at all, in over a year from now.

Some advice, you can choose to take it or not, totally up to you...whenever thoughts of said "stinging" start to creep, think about Heupel being here only 2 years, and he's landed all 4 of the QBs he's went after.

Which 4? We absolutely wanted Cutter Boley but didn’t want to wait around on him. I don’t fault him for missing on a kid who wanted to stay home or one he got a late start on in Simpson.

Also I’m not worried about the QB position under Heupel regardless of what happens. It’s not every day you get 2 elite QB talents in your backyard so it would be to land one.

Forgot about Simpson. Landed 3 of 4 in 2 years (Milton, Nico, and Merklinger...made a nice pivot from Simpson to Jackson).

Link, to Heupel "absolutely wanted" Boley over Merklinger?

Go look up posts from AP on the whole saga. We didn’t want to wait around so took Merklinger’s commitment and moved on. Which I hope we end up pushing for with DK/Macintyre assuming Macintyre is our option 1.

We wanted him for 24 but not 25 but still ended up in 24 obviously.

True, they liked him for '24...but, not over Merklinger. If they wanted Boley more, they wouldn't have taken Merk, and kept recruiting Boley.

It's not one or the other. They have their numero uno, whether it be Mac or Deuce; and, whoever is #1, that's who they'll pursue until they land him, or it's flat-out over for us. If Boley had been their main target for '24, they wouldn't have given in so easily.

Again, I'm not saying they didn't like Boley, they did, for '24...just not over Merklinger.

And, whoever their main target is, Deuce or Mac, you go all in, and risk losing the other. That's the game. Hopefully, we're at, or on the cusp of, if we do miss out on both, we can pivot to another good one. As I said, Heup did a pretty good job pivoting to Jackson after Simpson, and that was after being on the job for about 15 mins. I believe he can do better now, and especially next year, in the unlikely chance we do miss on both Mac and Deuce.

How is Lipscomb...
How big of an area are they "evaluating "?

Like they obviously went all the way to Mississippi. Where are they looking if you know?

I'm very interested in that.

I was on VQ during that whole recruitment…there was no “saga”. Straight up recruited both and AP never indicated Boley was a bigger want.
