Just saw Joey McGuire going after Sarkisian again and all I can think about is how we used to recruit in this conference. Back in the Southwest Conference days you knew every kid on your board by their mama's name. You sat in their living room and looked them in the eye. Now it is all about who has the biggest NIL checkbook and who can put together the flashiest social media campaign. Texas Tech and Texas going at it in the newspapers feels like old times but the reality is both programs are just buying rosters off the shelf. We used to build relationships over years not swipe right on the portal. This whole thing makes me miss the days when a handshake meant something and you could trust a kid to stay committed past February signing day.
