Anyone remember the days of  "____________ lives in an orange house?"

I can't understand the position that's been tossed about re: Gentry – that because Texas is looking to take multiple QBs, he's going to look elsewhere.

So he's visiting Michigan, whose new head coach was visiting with FSU QB commit Francois today.

Something else is going on in that situation.

Maybe Gentry got starry-eyed when looking at Harbaugh as someone who can identify and develop QB talent?

Josh Johnson

Colin Kaepernick

Andrew Luck

Rich Gannon

Kevin Hogan

Robert Griffin III (did not sign him obviously but recruited him very hard, unlike us. He kept pursuing him even after he got Luck)

Sean Renfree (the Duke QB, same story as Griffin, he identified him and recruited him hard)

 
Sounds like he may be pissed at his high school coaches. If they are not doing us any favors maybe it's good he is not happy with them.

Am I reading that right?
He is def pissed at his coaches

But he didnt say why

Maybe they dont like him visiting Texas?

Maybe they breached something he told them in confidence?

Maybe they spread a bad rumor about him?

Maybe it wasnt anything to do with us?

Whatever it was, it was bad enough to cause Lodge to go off publicly about it, and clearly identify them in the process

Wasnt it a Cedar Hill coach who told a reporter at a coaches convention that "Charlie Strong has an in state recruiting problem?"

Could be the UT coaches let him know the new offensive scheme? Can't see Gentry run zone reads.

 
Rivals saying Michigan/Harbaugh are also going after FSU QB commit Deondre Francois.

Would have implications for both Locksley and Gentry.

Word is, other college coaches who are actively pursuing Lodge were given a call and informed of Lodge's Austin activities.

I suppose Lodge didn't feel it was their place to do that.

 
So his tie is not only orange but it's burnt orange... I really hope he is not trolling. I mean he is at an awards ceremony, that's gotta be pretty low to go this far..

Honestly I would give him props if they played the long con this well but I just don't see it that way. Just spent 10 minutes on TexAgs (felt like 24 hours) and they have gone full blown TOS. People giving insider info, getting called idiots or attention whores, the whole 9 yards.

I just don't see the Murray's playing a long con on UT with Calvin in the picture. I honestly feel like it will happen on NSD.

If true, weaselly move by the coaches. What is in it for them with recruiting? Maybe they should contact The Enquirer and get paid for their scoops. Getting their panties in a wad and not getting enough love from some of the college coaches? Maybe they should learn it is about the kids not their own egos. Of course maybe the report is off base and this diatribe was not called for. Nah, I'm sure I am right as always...just ask my wife!?!?
