did anyone just hear Joel Klatt on the ticket? He said Andrew Luck desperately wanted to go to Texas and was waiting for an offer but when he visited Stanford, Harbaugh locked him up. If what Klatt says is true, my dislike of Mack goes beyond the roof. But then again, he would have been under-coached at Texas under Mack.

 

[I AM WARHOL]

I want Mack as far from the program as possible

Not true, I hate this revisionist history when it comes to recruiting. I remember when he visited, dude wasn't that high on us and most knew he was Stanford all the way.

Perkins is playing out of position but he shouldn't be getting manhandled by a safety

At least he got to the second level


Was that Flowers pulling and didn't block anyone? Should have laid #4 or #20 out. Typical Mack p*ssy. Same with Doyle


Williams put in work, so did Vahe. The 2 freshman

Your first mistake was listening to Joel Klatt.

Yeah, I've heard Ketchum from OB and/or Jeff Howe from Horns247 say this several times before.

man, Luck was Stanford all the way. This is like that Jameis bullshyt. Manziel on the other hand actually wanted to go to Texas. These stories are ridiculous. If Luck wanted to be at Texas, he would be at Texas. When a kid lists Stanford, they are as good as gone to Stanford. Its not a school that's an either or. If you can go there, you generally go there.

Jameis took Florida State over Stanford. Only because Florida State would let him play baseball too.

Yeah I remember his recruitment and up until the past couple of years I didn't even know this version of the story was in dispute. I think it was Bomani that tweeted the other day that this version was false.

fwiw Klatt's version is the same as Tom Herman's who actually touched on the subject recently:

When I was the offensive coordinator at Rice in 2007, there was an elite quarterback coming out of Stratford High in Houston. He made it very clear: If Texas didn't offer him a football scholarship, he was going to go to an academically minded school. So, his final three schools were Northwestern, Stanford and Rice. We were on his list for three reasons: He's from Houston; his dad was the president of MLS's Houston Dynamo; and his mom and maternal grandparents graduated from the school. Long story short, he had been on campus a couple of times, and I had always known well in advance he was coming.

Rice didn't have very nice facilities, so I knew which hallways to walk him down and where to hide him—I knew what doors to keep closed so he did not see certain things. Meanwhile, we planned any way we could to polish up the facilities. But during the spring my office phone rang and it's the quarterback's dad. I'm thinking, "Great!" I take the call, and he says, "Coach Herman, my wife and son and I are in the parking lot. Can we come up and spend some time with you?" I said, "Of course," but I'm thinking to myself, "Oh no! Oh god! What do I do?"

Mack and Herman are really good friends and Herman was a GA at UT under Mack. I just don't see why he'd lie on a friend and burn a bridge for something that didn't involve Mack or Luck.
