"He (Banks) offered me to play at Texas because he was familiar with me from when he was at Bama. He said that he believed I was the top TE on his board, and that I would be a great fit in Sark's offense. I'm definitely interested in Texas. I loved what Sark did at Bama."​
 
Thank you.

They told her if she made it five years, she should be good for many more. That was last September, but she took a very aggressive approach with a great Oncologist and two great surgeons.

Most cancer centers, not the least of which is located on Holcombe in The Texas Medical Center give chemo, radiation, and perform surgery. Then they pronounce the patient "clean" and their statistics show "SUCCESS". 12-18 months later, the patient is back for the other breast or cervical cancer or brain cancer or some internal organ (liver, pancreas, lung), BUT the treatment for breast cancer was a success, she just died of cervical cancer, SO give us our research grant for a successful treatment.

Side note, MDA was still calling my daughter to schedule her treatment after she had taken a lifetime dose of "red devil chemo", radiation, and endured an eight hour surgery.
 
On. QB Quinn Ewers...IT saying he is still "unquestionably" the priority for Sark despite his commitment to Ohio State.

They're hearing Texas currently thinks there's a decent chance for the flip as they stay in contact with each other, plus the new staff is now showing serious interest in Ewers' close friend and Southlake Carroll WR Landon Samson.

They also mentioned if you follow Ewers' social media you'll notice a strong Ohio State presence, but that's not necessarily something to take at face value.

 
IT spoke with WR Evan Stewart of Frisco Liberty today at 7-on-7 event, and they like where Texas sits with him.

He mentioned talking to QB Quinn Ewers on a regular basis and they want to play together, but Stewart doesn't have much contact with Ohio State and isn't big on Columbus.

Coach Sark already knows he can develop a QB, whoever we end up with. But he also needs dogs at WR (71% of passes in the Sark offense to WRs). The 2022 WR dogs we want are
-- Raleek Brown of Mater Dei ("the Tyreek Hill of this class"). As a freshman, Brown ran a 4.3 at ou’s camp. On the second run, Lincoln Riley personally timed the run and got him at around the same time. ou has been all over him for some time,,,,,,,​

Raleek Brown to ou
 
IT on Denver Harris --

North Shore‘s Denver Harris and his mother had a very good call with Coach Sarkisian and Coach Joseph. Harris isn’t the easiest to get on the phone. He’s not a big talker and most overtures from schools go unanswered. He’s just not in love with this aspect of the blue-chip bargain. For him to say it was a good call is worth noting.

I expect him and his mother to have a Zoom presentation in the coming days, or maybe week. That could become a pivot point in the recruitment.

Harris is a composite five-star and the purest corner on the Texas board. He’s at a school where UT needs to repair its corroded pipeline. The staff in place is built well to do so. ​
 
IT on 2022 secondary targets generally --

CB/DB Jaylon Guilbeau, Port Arthur Memorial — The Texas commit put together good junior film at corner. It was about what I was hoping to see. He’s not exactly a blazer, but he has quick feet and solid technique. Nickel is probably his best position, but we’re talking about in a fully maximized secondary, which is what the new staff is trying to assemble.

CB Denver Harris, North Shore — Pure corner which adds a lot to his value.

CB Terrance Brooks, John Paul II — He’s a complete defensive back and could play anywhere in the secondary. He’s a rare dude and part of what separates him is his work ethic and study habits. Usually those are compensatory traits for average athleticism, but he’s a very good athlete as well. I’m confident he’ll be a corner, but if not, he’s going to be very good somewhere in the secondary.

DB Bryce Anderson, Beaumont West Brook — He does have the speed to play corner but would need to be coached up. He’s played quarterback/offense which helps make sense when playing ’through the looking glass’ on the other side of the ball. Nickel might be his best athletic fit but as a heady player a staff may prize him calling the secondary from depth.

DB Bryan Allen, Aledo — He reminds me of Michael Huff though I don’t think he’s quite as fast as the former Texas great and current Texas liaison. Allen can play any safety role.

DB Landon Hullaby, Mansfield Timbreview — Hullaby has very good coverage traits (fluid, COD) for a bigger safety who may end up in a hybrid role. He would have been an excellent option to play the SPUR position we saw Chris Adimora play last season.

DB Jarred Kerr, Lexington — “Kerr-ouge under fire,” if I may cross streams with the 2022 nickname thread, has safety, nickel, and corner ability, and probably in that order. ​

Safeties have to be able to think fast. Looks like Brooks and maybe Allen are the ones out of this group to target at Safety. Gideon should be able to relate.

Yes, We will take them all...
 
Part of IT on some of the 2022 issues

1. Quinn Ewers or Cade Klubnik
When looking at the possibilities of Steve Sarkisian’s first full class, there is absolutely no reason to take an out of state signal caller unless Ewers or Klubnik says no. If the Longhorns strike out on both, then a two QB class with an out of state prospect could come in to play -- and that should be the only reason. Ewers speaks for himself in the potential recruiting impact, but Klubnik is now a respected and popular QB among other recruits. The positive recruiting impacts of having one of the two in the fold in this class is much better than the prospects of an out of state quarterback. It the state of Texas, the University of Texas or Texas A&M better have a great reason to go out of state for a quarterback. Jimbo Fisher already made the shrewd decision by getting Conner Weigman in the class quickly to further the domination in the Houston area, and now Steve Sarkisian must also make the shrewd decision so that one of Ewers or Klubnik is the bell cow in his first full class.

The 2023 class is where you leave the state based on early returns in terms of elite talent at the position, the 2022 class is not.

2. Evan Stewart or Brenen Thompson or both
Since the first day Sarkisian was hired, it was known that Stewart and Thompson were among the highest priorities for the new staff. Nothing has changed, and that means the staff must now win one or both of these very key recruitments in the 2022 cycle. Texas has too many receivers on the roster as Sarkisian pointed out, and even though they have too many — none have the capabilities of these two special athletes. If the Longhorns are going to quickly become a program that can legitimately compete to get to a college football playoff, then signing one or both is a must. The Texas program can truly go from a talented offense to one that scares defensive coordinators on signing day in December of 2021 if Stewart and Thompson both head to Austin.

5. Don’t lose these leans
Arlington Bowie OG Devon Campbell,
Tyler Legacy RB Jamarion Miller,
Martin LB Trevell Johnson

These are three prospects Texas should not lose, if they continue to covet the trio with Campbell a given. For the first full class under a new coach to be successful, you simply have to close out the leans. At a program such as Texas, there is very rarely an excuse not to win the leans — and not doing so can lead to the recruiting downfall for a head coach as seen in 2021 and early in the 2022 cycle with Tom Herman.

While Texas has Jaydon Blue in the boat and a number of national offers out, the staff simply must get Jamarion Miller in the boat quickly. Texas needs to win in East Texas, and win with one of the fastest players in pads in the state. Yes, Blue and Miller have similar frames and games, but this is all about closing out a lean with plenty of speed to help build momentum in the class.

When looking at prospects in the class that are at the top with the “must get” tag, Campbell is in the top three or four. This is a recruitment that will likely take a little while to play out but Texas can’t lose, period.

Joe,

Having read that IT piece, it is clear that they don't have a clue how Jimbo's mind works, I sincerely hope Sarkisian isn't as stupid as they are.
 
Dr Joe, would you please share the stats and details of siz, speed etc of these young men?
