Morris doing exactly what I said he would... He's picking up the bums from Texas that nobody else wants. What does it tell you that a zero star quarterback out of China Springs, TX, with no P5 offers,

Why are his offers not great? Us, tulsa who is down and Arkansas state,  the rest lower level. I was hoping we could win a sought after qb recruit.  This looks like the same gets that Seth would pick

I will take the bait. This QB is better than any QB Seth brought in not named Mason Fine. I trust Coach Morris and Brophy QB evaluations alot more that Seth and his imaginary QB coach the last 4 years. Just look at Eric Morris track record of QBs the last decade. I wouldn't be surprised if Cash doesn't pick up 5-10 more offers between now and December. Especially if he takes another step up after his State Championship run last year.

When Lugo committed to UTSA I was mad. At the time, I said we had to land McCollum, who I think is actually better than Lugo. McCollum has it all. This guy reminds me of Jackson Arnold. This is a great day to be a Meean Green fan. Welcome aboard Cash!

Now let's go get some linemen to protect him.

You don't understand recruiting.  This kid is heating up meaning he is getting invites to Texas A&M camps by Bobby Petrino and other big schools are starting to take interest.  He is about to blow up and we may be luck to hold onto him.   Recruiting is all about timing.  You cannot teach 6-4 with big arm out of high school.  Good pickup.

Bingo and for the record they wanted McCollum way more than Lugo.  Much bigger upside.  The only downside to McCollum and why he didn't have more early offers was his level of competition at CS.  They are not 6A and that makes him more of a risk.

He's coming off a 4A State Championship season where he passed for 3,201 yards and 37 TDs. He rushed for 454 yards and 6 TDs. I know QBs are not the only reason for wins and losses, but for comparison the QB we lost to UTSA won 4 games last year and the one we lost to Rice won 3 games. I watched a few minutes of his tape, and I was impressed.

I'm not saying he can't be good.  I'm just going off offers compared to our conference mates. 

Smu QB commit has offers: MIAMI,  VIRGINIA TECH, MARSHALL,FAU, GA TECH 

Uab commit: auburn, Arkansas,  app state,Florida,  Georgia, Miami 

Utsa conmut offers: us, byu,army, Indiana

Memphis QB commit: us, utsa,  Utah St, Tulane

Tulane commit: airzona, utsa, Memphis, 

ECU commit: central Michigan, app state, uab, Memphis,  Marshall, liberty

I understand recruiting well. This essentially a commodity business.  The more people that want the recruit the higher the commodity.  Doesn't mean he can't be good I'm just looking at the general consensus of college football as they tend to be the experts. I don't think you understand recruiting as much as you'd like to think.

Sheesh. Y'all gotta relax and trust your coaches. The first QB commit for a staff is a big one. If they feel like putting their chips in on this kid then you have to trust them. Lashlee's first QB commit was SOCs championship winning QB (Kevin Jennings) who had a terrible offer list. He was absolutely money a couple times last year. Even though he will be the back up to Stone this year, it looks likely that he will end up better than 4 star Preston Stone when its all said and done.

This is the slippery slope for a G5 taking a quality high school player.  Either we have to hope a P5 shark doesn't snatch him before he signs with us, or that he stays once we have him in the program.

Let's look at the positives right now yall...

He's currently committed to UNT.

He still has another year of HS ball to develop and showcase what he has. He is definitely going to have bigger offers if he continues the way he is playing.

Keep in mind dude has so much time left to grow and get better. If we can hold on to him, this could be BIG TIME. 

Also really cool to see other current commits and players reach out to him congratulating him! We need more of that.

I can't say I trust anybody yet. But he has a roomful of QBs to choose from and make it work this year. We get solid QB and decision making this year and that'll go a long way in gaining trust from the fan base.

      Seems like you've gotten over the speeding ticket well.

      Caponi fired

      I think this is a cop-out. He’s been doing this crap since the beginning of his tenure. The first memorable time was against Navy last year on the first drive of the game from the 1. If in the 5th game of year 1 he was already feeling like he needed to score every drive because of the defense, that's an even bigger problem. I think not having a reliable kicker or punter is the main problem. He went for the points a few times early this season and it didn't work out. Same with some punts that just don't do a good job at flipping the field. I've mentioned in other threads that special teams has also been a problem. Evans is 89th in the country in average punt yardage. We have to have a short kicker and a long kicker. Who the eff does that at this level? That's two coordinators that Morris flopped out on. I'm just waiting on us to move on from Svobada at season's end. Was looking over his profile and I didn't know but he also has Tight Ends this year. Where have the Tight Ends been lately??

      What to expect from Odom?

      You have quite unique comments on there…

      Caponi fired

      I understand that his decisions to go for it on 4th down so much or not to kick FGs or play the field position game are bad decisions. Just playing Devil's advocate. Could it be that those decisions stem from a lack of confidence in the defense? It feels like he believes he has to score TDs on every possession to win because the defense will not stop anyone. So, that takes me back to he should have never kept Caponi after year one.
