2018 Recruiting - Football

[I35]

I've got to say that I'm a little disappointed that I didn't wake up this morning with another top notch recruit committing.

I must be getting spoiled lately.

LSU boards seem to be conceding Rafiti Ghirmai to us

Are we sure we want this kid? Look at that offer list. How many national championships have those schools won over the last 20 years?

Have I mentioned this kid is a beast? Hope Herman doesn't let him leave

five of the seven CB's are to LSU. None to us. that can't be good

IT also thinks we will get a commitment soon -- "at least one commitment over the next handful of days, but potentially more."
We do have a visitor now. And there have been 8 CBs of this player to Texas in the last 3 days, the most recent being by Demetric Warren

Crystal balls since 5/30. 2 five-stars (as of now), 7 four-stars. Momentum is a helluva thing, and I see it getting stronger after Monday, especially if Adeoye commits.

Ayodele Adeoye - 8 (3 national guys) side note: %#*+ yes!

BJ Foster - 2 (making it 16/16 CB)

Brennan Eagles - 2 (14/14 total)

Jaylon Waddle - 2 (one from aggy site, last six to Texas including one from national guy)

Malcom Epps - 1 (13/13 total)

Al'vonte Woodard - 1 (10/10 total)

Jalen Green - 1 (9/9 total; most recent since April)

Sione Angilau Jr. - 1 (8/8 total)

D'shawn Jamison - 1 (last CB was in April, to Texas by national guy)

The DB situation is getting interesting

Nahlin says we are after two out-of-state DBs -- top-100 CB Brendan Radley-Hiles (orig from Las Vegas now at IMG Academy in Bradenton, FL) and 4-star Georgia S Trey Dean. And that Dean is on campus now.

We are also looking at some Houston DBs as well (given private workouts).

2019 TE from Oklahoma

 

[X Misn Tx]

a Boomer from Oklahoma? I don't like our chances.

but he looks like a stud

 

[ViperHorn]

Once again, what is this TE position you keep talking about?

Holy sh!t this video - this is how you announce

 

[caryhorn]

Yeah, Baby

 

[I35]

This one and hopefully the one tomorrow are both big time. I can't wait to see where our class is ranked after these two sign (that is if Foster commits like I think he will.)

HOOK'EM!!!

 

[OldHippie]

Congratulations and welcome Ayodele Adeoye.

 

[Omniscient.one]

I hear this guy is pretty good. (*&^%$ yes! Make the UT defense fun to watch again!)

 

[UTExinPDX]

Welcome to Texas, Ayodele!

 

[X Misn Tx]

Holy sh!t this video - this is how you announce

did he create that himself? can schools helps kids do that?

also, i really like this kid.

 

[X Misn Tx]

I wonder if we'll have a small class based on the offer list on 247sports. Looks like a talented class though. I'm guessing we do well at QB, RB, WR, TE, S. I'm thinking we do okay at DL and C.

We seem to be out on top OLs and LBs. (not criticizing specific athletes, but 1 or 2 ***s in those areas would be a weakness in those areas)

How much beef is left on the table? I'm always good with 4 OLs and we're thin on the DL...

 

[I35]

Is there a scheduled time for Foster to announce today?
