    I'm much less concerned about graduation losses than I am building depth. That is my biggest concern right now, we will never compete with a Bama or Clemson until we build the kind of depth that lets us plug in the next guy without missing a beat. I think it will take 2 more classes like the last two and we will be there. Frankly, I'm sick of seeing Bama and Clemson, and Oklahoma in the playoffs, I want to see Texas there kicking names and taking ***.

    TFB says 2019 --

    "...what I can tell you is that the ‘Shh’ is for a 2019 kid you are familiar with, but not necessarily expecting with the timing of the ‘shh’"

    I thought it was a stupid gimmick when the Aggsy did it, nothing has changed.

    I think it's very practical and we should have been doing it a long time ago. And it doesn't bother me if Aggies we're doing it first.

    When Coach Sumlin flew up to see Kyler Murray and Kaden Smith at the Allen vs Flower Mound Marcus game, my wife and her friend Angela knew all about it, and they follow college recruiting like I follow Dancing with the Stars.

    I think helicopter use can be very practical.

    I think "swagging" it up with a name and colors is beyond silly.

    Just go about your business. If it needs to be a helicopter, do be it.

    More on this one. Probably explains why we dropped out of the mix.
    From my perspective, however, a swirl of dark clouds around USC might help push some of the other recruits were are going head-to-head with them in our direction.

    While 2019 St. John Bosco HS CB Chris Steele claims USC isn't the perfect fit for him, the Trojans actually parted ways with him because of the high potential for NCAA drama.

    Shortly after Steele committed to USC, the Trojan compliance office was approached by multiple parties, including USC247.com, with evidence he took improper benefits. The evidence shows these benefits were funneled from USC recruiting reporters. Scott Schrader of TrojanInsider.com and Ryan Young of TrojanSports.com are the two reporters accused of doing so. Ryan Abraham and Gerard Martinez of USCFootball.com were also said to be approached about providing improper benefits to Steele, but there's no evidence they did.

    Commit Jordan Whittington (Cuero) -- the film is at distance, but it lets his game speed show, he outruns everyone on both teams

    Brooks is also a very good player (5-star) and has reached out to us, among others. But he also has some not so good rumors swirling around him as well, so we may not, probably dont, have the same level of interest

    Attention La Familia McCoy -- Rumors out there that USC boosters are targeting Jack Del Rio as their next coach.

    If Powell wants to be a QB (and play early) he might consider a less populated position room than the one here.

    Not to dispute your post, Joe, but this is not a rumor. They are in full blown negotiations, because:

    1) They need a coach

    2) They need a recruiter

    3) They are losing recruits

    4) USC has never experienced decommits and is in shock that a kid given the opportunity to play at USC would consider any other school.

    Interesting. From what I am hearing from USC alums in LA is that they are are praying for a Pete Carroll return.
