Nice article on a kid from SA Warren that is on Mack's radar.

Awesome.

Thanks for posting this.

There is only one position that Texas is in DESPERATE need of in my opinion, and it's DT.

We very much want and need Howell. At Texas, he would play close to home, earn playing time early and get a great education.

 

[cochamps]

Sounds like a plan to me. I hope Mr. Howell agrees.

 

[Bill in Sinton]

I agree. I hope we can at least get a couple of good ones.

Great article. I know the Dausin family well and the baby brother of Howell's coach (Bryan Dausin) is a good friend of mine. Bryan is the shortest of the family at 6'5". However here is a little irony for ya, him & his brothers Ronnie & Chris (baby bro) all played OL/C for aggy. Chris even went on to play 3 yrs in the NFL.

Kinda funny that A&M didn't offer Howell considering the close ties with the Dausins.

The Link Check out this link and you'll see a picture of Chris standing inside their 26' BBQ trailer and Ronnie standing next to some crew in a red shirt. You'll know who they are when you see them standing next to others. They know big boys well, as is apparent with Calvin Howell. I'm all for Mack & Sally bringing this kid to the Good Guys!!!

Howell's recruitment to A&M has been screwed up to say the least...

Brian Dausin was the O cordinator at my High school 91-94. I was a captain and LB on defense. I was yelling at the offense, which was pretty inept during one of our games - and he grabbed me by the face mask and shook me around like a ragdoll, I thought I would die. I never said **** again to the offense. He was/is HUGE.

The next year, he was hired as the headcoach at Roosevelt, who is in our district and won the 5A state championship in his first year as a HC. (I may be wrong, it could have been his 2nd year) Hes a very good coach, but unfortunately one of the biggest Aggy homers I have ever known.

We need a couple of solid DTs in this class, but we are young and perhaps unproven at DT, not desperate.

 

[El Torito]

Big need. Hopefully, the kids gets further than just Mack's radar.

 

[GhostOfTomJoad]

Looks promising. I hope he continues to hit the books first & foremost.

Tech boards are buzzing with rumor that Howell let his high school coaches know he's committing to Texas this weekend while he's in town for the Spring Game.

We'll see. Keep your fingers crossed. Howell and McFarland would be VERY nice.

sdhornesq, i believe youre thinking of walters

 

[SDHornEsq]

You're right. I stand corrected.

 

[Frank Zappa]

Still no news? The news/rumors of his "imminent" commitment followed by silence seems to bode ill.

 

[everybodygodeep]

Many have reported that he is waiting for his parents to come to campus. He has been to UT about 4 times, I wouldn't worry too much.
