I went back and looked at our recruiting classes since 2005 and could only find 2 linebacker recruits we beat Texas on: Aaron Franklin and Corey Nelson. How is that possible? Conversely, they have beat us on Malik Jefferson, Cameron Townsend, Anthony Wheeler, Cameron Hampton, Deoundrei Davis, Timothy Cole, Toshiro Davis, Peter Jinkins, Steve Edmond and that is only going back to 2011.

I understand that Texas is going to win more battles than they lose but how are we not more competitive than that? I guess the Dontavious Jackson news hit a nerve.
