2025 Recruiting - Football

Would love to get him to flip back to the good guys


OTF confirmed that Phillips will be at the game with his parents.

Hamilton believes it's at least 70% that he will re-commit to Texas.

Phillips was recently made a five-star on On3.
 
Hamilton at OTF says pay attention to what WR Jaime Ffrench does this weekend.

If he heads to Gainesville for a second weekend in a row, that'd be an ominous development for Texas.

He didn't rule out Ffrench returning to Austin for the Kentucky game.



I'm not asking about dirty money or anything. I'm asking basic non "official visit" questions.

How do these guys afford traveling so much on unofficial visits to other states?

Have you not donated your frequent flyer miles to the Longhorn Foundation yet?
 
Last time I flew was when I ran into this guy pedaling some sort of wacky tobaccy back in the early ‘70s.

DT Myron Charles of Port Charlotte, FL talked to On3 today:

“I’m not really too sure yet (what I'm doing this weekend),” Charles told On3’s Keith Niebuhr. “Think I’m going to fly back out to Texas. It’s undecided right now. Really just going to get with my family and see what they’re trying to do.”

“They’ve (Texas) been loyal to me since they offered me,”
Charles said. “The connection there, the communication has been huge. They have a great D-Line staff and they’ve been playing outstanding overall. Just a dominant team and that’s the type of team you want to play for.”

“Their D-line staff (is the best thing about Texas),”
said Charles.

“Honestly, there isn’t too much more I have to see from Texas. I’m committed there for a reason.”

 
Note from Burton at OTF...

"We’re now less than two weeks out from Dec. 4, national signing day. In speaking with multiple sources over the past 24-48 hours, I feel very confident how Texas will finish this recruiting campaign. Of course, Gerry wrote a piece of just how well Texas is positioned heading down the stretch. So that should come as little surprise. But there is more to what I’ve been told recently. I’m told Texas is more prepared for the portal than they have ever been."
 
From Nahlin at IT today...

I'm not claiming this specific thing is related to his comment, but some are wondering if he's talking about #1 overall prospect QB Bryce Underwood flipping to Michigan and that having a huge effect on LSU's class.

"Somebody smart said a while back Texas would be going for a big late-cycle flourish. I’m not quite sure how it will pan out but the targets and potential flips are materializing more and more. Today, or tonight rather, could have a significant impact on how the cycle finishes up."

Hello Kade Phillips, Zion Williams, and Brandon Brown


We have a shot with Phillips. Williams is hedging on his possible visit here this weekend
There has been zero communication with Brown.

Things may change. Underwood was the reason for a lot of their commitments.
 


They’re jumping off the sinking ship in Norman.

What a nightmare this has to be for the Sooners. If you are a top rated QB, you must have seen the trash QB play they put on the field this year and think ‘I could start there right away’. Things must be getting really bad there.

With no OC, and the real possibility of losing your No. 1 OL recruit, is this really a surprise (except for the whole FSU being the school now, but they don't have a QB either).
 
LB Kellen Wiley, Jr. will head to Florida this weekend as well, per OTF.

Texas is considered the leader currently.
