2020 Recruiting - Football

Back in the day I did 585 and that was impressive, but this is a high school junior doing 605. That is some crazy amount of power.

If your keeping score, that is the amount that the WR from Purdue did.
 
Chad Lindberg's measurements from the Under Armour camp this past weekend --
6'6, 325 with a 81" wingspan, 35" arm measurement, and 9.5" hands.
Built to be an OT
 
A CB came in today of 4-star DE Vernon Broughton of Cy Ridge to Texas by Steve Wiltfong[/QUOTE
Yet another Arizona kid and yet another 5-star RB giving us a look
5-star RB Bijan Robinson (6'0,200) Tucson will visit us in March.

Bijan Robinson, Salpointe Catholic, Running Back


Wow. My take: a deceptively fast, smooth runner with effortless moves who just won't go down. With SC, UCLA, ASU and U of AZ all down, the Southwest part of the country is starting to look like ours for the picking.
 
Man I hope he doesn't bust a nut
For a little perspective, when I was a HS Senior in the 1980's the low 400s was the highest anyone squatted on my 4A team (next-to-highest classification back then). And that was as a max, not doing sets. Here we have a skill position player doing sets of squats in the low 600s!
 
Holland thinks the chance of flipping him are low at the moment
But we are making the effort

His top 5 in state would include Demas along with Broughton, Evans, JaQuinden Jackson and Chris Thompson.

I like M Wilson better than Demas, but I’d like them both if we can for sure.
 
5-star RB from Cal, appears to have made it to Austin


Also expected this weekend, return trips for ...
2020 CB Joshua Eaton (he and others are in for a track meet)
2020 DB, Bryson Washington (C.E. King)
2020 DB Xavion Alford (Shadow Creek)
2021 WR Cody Jackson (Richmond Foster)

Big Willie Tyler says our coaches told him we will give an answer as to whether he has an offer or not in the next couple weeks.
Probably depends on the the answer of the other 2 grad transfers. I say they take 2 out of 3.

Some info from EJ Holland on the visitors
Milton -- one of the most talented prospects in the country ...has very high interest in the program...
Eaton -- visited for junior day last weekend and came away with an offer. Texas is surging as the favorite ... so getting him back to campus speaks volumes ... With that said, ... one of the hottest recruits in the nation.
Washington -- .. also at Texas junior day and on several occasions before that. Texas appears to be separating itself from the pack ... was originally supposed to commit in July but is now looking at Dec
Alford -- ... also on campus for junior day ... Getting him back ... is huge for his recruitment as the staff will get to spend more individual time with him. Alford is a versatile DB with the ability to play corner or safety ... most likely fit is at nickel. Texas, LSU and aggy are all major players early
Jackson (2021) -- notched an offer during his junior day weekend... ou considered the heavy favorite .... The fact that he’s coming in for the second consecutive weekend gives us reason to be optimistic moving forward.

Thanks Joe. You're posts and updates are a blessing in these bleak gaps in football activity.
