2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

El Presidente is looking elsewhere now that Stidham has taken his spot...

Bobby Burton says Chad President wants to play QB and that UT coaches have been in contact with him.  I haven't seen anyone that thinks he's better than Heard or Gentry - do we need him?

 
Watched most of the state playoff game in which he quaterbacked Temple.  Was NOT impressed with his skillset.  I think he would be much too much of a PROJECT!!!

Yep. Fantastic athlete but an average QB IMO. Looked pretty bad in the state title game (granted that was only one game).

State title game is a good barometer for President's overall development.

If he struggled against the best, most disciplined Aledo defense he's gonna have problems initially in the Big12. Not a knock against the kid, but he'll probably need a redshirt.

 
I think we all better hope that Heard has a fantastic spring.
Today's BON article, Mike Finger tweet on Marcus Johnson talking about Jerrod Heard.

Marcus Johnson effusive in praise of Jerrod Heard who he said "will prove why he won two state championships."

I like the incoming freshman recruits we have. Don't know about President, but we really would be helped by a quarterback who could come in and compete immediately. I do not think that Swoopes is the answer, and from what I have heard, Heard is not making progress either. So we need a JUCO or graduate transfer who can step in and do the job rather than another freshman project. Don't know if one is available.

Based on what I've "Heard", I respectfully disagree.

This I can agree with.

Its a down year for JUCO QB's.  Hopefully Heard will be ready this Spring.

If we can just land 3 out of Irvin, Hill, Boyd, Fields and Davis damn that's a hell of a DB class. I personally think we have a shot with all 5, but not sure we will take all 5. 

 
If Boyd comes to Texas, I think he would favor Texas. Problem is he better make a decision soon because numbers are tight. I think Texas probably only has room for 3 maybe 4 of those guys. Strong isn't going to tell Boyd, Davis, and Irvin no waiting for Hill.
And it's basically down to us and Aggy for Boyd correct?
