Re: 2018 Schedules

Went to Portales a couple years ago for the Tarleton game. It was the first year from the new stadium. Ate at the brewery. Had a very good time, mainly because we won.

That game was stupid.

Re: 2018 Schedules

It's happening as we speak. The total warfare headknockin' that was spring practice last year has been tempered.

The staff got a very, very late start in recruiting last year, didn't know the Texas recruiting ropes, getting organized, learning about each other, establishing routines, finding our what worked and what didn't, putting it all together and being on solid footing. That stage has passed. I think Coach Hughes will have the machine running much smoother from now on. Hey, I bet you were a lot better at your job year two than you were year one. Right?

The one thing that hasn't changed.......Hughes' desire to WIN. If anything, I'd say that's intensified. He is driven. His players see it. They feed off of it. (Or so I've had several players tell me).

I had a conversation with a WT administrator recently. He commented that in all his years, he'd never had a HS coach call him about any of his coaches on the recruiting trail. Well, he said two Dallas area head HS coaches called to tell him how much they appreciated the WT coaches. They appreciated the way Hughes' coaches went about recruiting their kids; the professionalism, the way they vetted kids, they way they presented WT, what they expected from the kids, and most importantly, the way they emphasized Hughes wanted kids with character, that wanted to win on the field, in class, and in life. We'll see if that translates into W's, but it sounds like a good start.

I watched from a distance at the 1st practice of the spring. I couldn't get a good count of how many players were suited out. They were spread out. Have you heard a number?

About 80. I'm hearing we'll add 5 or 6 juco's this summer plus the near 60 signed to come in.

LMAO. "Men, here at Buffaloland you are Herdsmen...being on the team, getting $2.53 in scholly $, meeting BuffaloChip in person, and getting all the Bison burgers you can eat FAR outweighs large scholly offers from other inferior programs. Did I mention the Bison burgers?"

What is your problem? There is no need to be a jerk, is there? Buff Fan 05 asked about numbers. I answered.

How much scholly money are the 140 kids at Commerce (or anywhere else in the LSC) getting? Players 90 thru 140 are getting $2.53, just like players 90 thru 140 at WT will get.

Considering they were below 100 last fall, that sounds like a good start. It looked like there were more players than last spring

Hopefully, the Buffs will have some Blue Chip freshman & Jr College transfers report in Aug. Add a little depth to the roster.
