Texas State

[Cr1028]

Wow.

[El Paso Eagle]

Talk about building relationships with Texas HS coaches

Does not seem to be building for the future.

[Wag Tag]

Could be the future(SMU) I wonder how JC is doing?

“Our whole intentions were to sign high school kids. That’s what we do,” Spavital told 247Sports. “But we weren’t lucky to have any guys who wanted to commit."

The above comment is just sad.

I wish we played these guys. Good fit with SMU and would add another TX FBS OOC game every year.

My guess is the old LaTech/SMU line of thinking 

[greenminer]

I get why we play SMU. I don't get why we never ever play TxSt.

Agreed. I think it would be a fun game to play.

[southsideguy]

We have everything to lose and nothing to gain is the the thought pattern I am sure.  I don't agree with it, we play Lamar and other schools and we have more to lose than we gain. We need to win all the games we should win.

I'm not buying that. He went juco heavy purposefully and that quote is a save face. No way 0 HS kids just didn't want to go there.

Anyone notice Walerius's tweets, he is consistently @'d by interested high school recruits trying to get his attention.

Literally thousands of kids out there that want to play next level football.  IMO, TxState went full-on JUCO intentionally.

With everything going on this year he took the chance to try an experiment. If it works everyone will be calling him a genius in a year or two

What experiment?

[UNTexas]

It would be a fun road trip. Really nice area. I can only remember 1994 being the last time we played them.

Not sure what else you would call this, maybe strategy? Definitely outside the box thinking.  

[greenminer]

@El Paso Eagle you lost me. Are you referring to his tweets?

Maybe so, but that is one of the worst quotes you could put out there.

Mc’s the worst, paraphrase “ it’s hard to recruit at North Texas” he should of been fired then.

Why? They’ve existed much longer than UTSA...

Both started FBS football in 2011.

TxState's pre-FBS era could easily be dismissed due to budget/scholly differences.

That’s weak. We’ve played them more than anyone else in our school’s history, IIRC.
