Yes something is brewing as I mentioned.
Hamilton at IT teeted out a " hi" emoji earlier.
He typically does that when we have one in the house.

Hamilton said the commitment he spoke of is not OL Brandon Baker.

Looking like false alarm.

IT says we're on commit watch.

We'll see.

 

[X Misn Tx]

Pfft. Ef

 

[LHABSOB]

I’d say not at all. Sark simply cannot recruit and then keep/utilize a 5 star QB in every class. It’s not manageable.

Hasn't been an issue for Saban.

 

[txhorn_et]

Or Tommy Boy territory

If Daniels could handle all the kicking duties, plus play qb, he might possibly be the second coming of George Blanda.

 

[Sangre Naranjada]

George Blanda

 

[txhorn_et]

Maybe some of the youngsters will Google his name and learn something.

Its a good problem to have. Yes these kids want to play and if they are good enough and dont get lucky at Texas then the portal is a cash cow waiting. Guarantee Malik had some opps this spring based on how he performed in the spring game and he chose to stay. Good for him.

well, we are deep at cb.
Plus, I think we get Black.
Sometimes it's a numbers thing. NIL also.

Apparantly Gipson re connected with the staff after Simmons commitment.
We'll see where that goes.

NIL can create some real head-scratchers, but occasionally, a given school decides to go all in on a given player and it is what it is; he got paid and possibly, it's more than we wanted to pay because we have our eye on other players.

 

[X Misn Tx]

Wrote a football poem about him when I was in elementary school. No, I wasn't always as crunk and hip as I am now. lol

Ketch added he's hearing "very good things" on Wingo.

Wiltfong at 247 believes Mizzou has a lot of momentum, Wingo is nearing a decision and he's considering switching his Texas pick.

[Chop]

How are we looking for the remaining OL on our board?

 

[old65horn]

After the Mack fiasco, these CBs do not get me excited.

Who has more credibility, Ketch or Wiltfong?

 

[dukesteer]

Hasn't been an issue for Saban.

Well, Jalen Hurts…

 

[cnb]

No loss here if the size is correct.
No length, so he better have 4.3 speed or better. Florida can have him.

Earl Thomas says hi.
He's a damn good db and would have loved to have gotten him.

 

[cnb]

Who has more credibility, Ketch or Wiltfong?

Wilfong.

Hamilton at IT said this evening he's not conceding WR Ryan Wingo to Missouri because it's a "real battle."

He mentioned Sark has a good beat on what it's important in this recruitment, plus Manning and Coach Jackson are playing key roles.

The staff has confidence and Austin is another positive factor.

 

[old65horn]

Wilfong.

That’s troubling

This is an interesting one because IT said Texas wouldn't be pursuing, but DE Jordan Ross of Vestavia Hills, AL says he'll be back on campus in the fall.

“I’ve heard a lot,” Ross told Horns247 of the latest with the Longhorns. “When I went down for my OV I absolutely loved Texas. I had a great time down there.”

“I’d say like talking to one of the football players from Texas, who was originally from Birmingham, Alabama — Justice Finkley,” Ross said of OV highlights. “He tells me how it’s a great program, how they can develop me, and how Austin is just a great city in general.”

“I haven’t really looked at anyone’s games,” he said. “I plan to go down there and watch a game. That’s kind of on my agenda. I haven’t figured out which one I want to go to.”

“They’re like we have a great program,” Ross said of the staff’s pitch. “Like Justice said. We can develop you and we would love for you to be here. There’s a lot of opportunities here for you to be great.”

“I’m still thinking about it,” he said. “But I’m pretty sure what I want. I haven’t set a day or anything, but I’m pretty sure I’ve got it down. It’s still a little secret.”

“I can’t really say too much but I can say Texas is really in there,” he said. “Texas is like top three right now.”

“I’d say seeing how Justice played out and seeing how he got on the field so early,” Ross said. “I saw some of his highlights. I’m not really seeing that position there as full. I think they have a low depth chart. There aren’t too many players at that position.”
