Bc of the UT journalism school....duh



The kid will play 3 years and go to the NFL. General studies, sports management, whatever, doesn't matter.

There is only one solution. LSU must immediately build a bigger and better broadcasting/journalism program. No cost is too great.

d it's not broadcast journalism


Missouri is one, if not the best, in the nation for Broadcast Journalism. LSU has a great program but if the kid is serious about playing in the SEC and his education, Missouri is the best out there.

Based on this I have not a damn clue why he'd chose Texas now other than Porter being slimy with him.


What is slimey about it? He's doing his job. Porter recruited Herron while still at Ariz St. He gets a new job and is recruiting for a new school.

I still don't think he flips and I agree he's a better fit for LSU's D. If he goes to Texas, he'll need to redshirt to become a DT. The only thing that might stick out for Herron is that Texas currently has zero commits on defensive line for 2013. Nada, zilch, nyet.

He wants to play, and be competitive, in the SEC

Mizzou is out

Stands out to me too - basically screams "why the frick would anyone want to go to UT to play defense right now"

To not have successfully recruited a single DL recruit is pitiful. It is an indictment, not a positive. There's a reason UT hasn't been able to attract defensive talent.

Organizing a trip behind the back of his parents doesn't strike you as a bit shady?

Just saying, but UT fans complained for YEARS that Porter was slimey as they come...and then you hired him.

Nah, it's just the opposite, in the SEC, we pay the parents directly. Texas seems to prefer going through the HS coaches.

I don't doubt that, although he's new for me. I don't like everything I've read about the guy, but Mack needed a sparkplug & Porter is it. UT fans complain about a lot of stuff. I know, I've been one for a long time. College football brings out the best & worst in fans.

Your guy is aggressive. The other guy is slimy. It's all about context.
