Do we ever win the 'last minute high profile recruit'?

Was Simms one maybe? Benson? DJ? All I am sure about are all of the misses. I can't remember the hits.

Yeah, I was thinking Okay may be the only one of the "choose a cap" guys that we have won. Further, I don't think that is the kind of guy Mack generally wants, and who could blame him?

"Texas is a different place, the tradition here, the history here, if you didn't grow up with our history and tradition and you don't know how special this place is, then you're one-of-five (choices for a player). I don't want us to be one-of-five. I want us to one-of-one or one-of-two. Maybe that's wrong, but I want guys that love it here, I want guys that are crying when they walk out of that tunnel. On senior day, I want all the moms and dad there. That's just the way I am and the way I feel. When they say we are one-of-five, then I say you’re (down to) one-of-four because I'm out."

Roy Miller was a choose the cap kinda guy, but I think he chose at the Army All-Star Game.

Considering what Mack bags early, losing a big name at the tail end of recruiting season hurts the ego, but not the team that much.

Mack is boring ..........in a good way. I think our classes lose hype because we've been done for awhile now

Mack has said that he usually tries to avoid recruiting 'signing day' recruits, because all the 'funny business' happens in the 24 to 48 hours leading up to LOI day.

Now that's a quote if I ever saw one, 3 milks.
