2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

[Sirhornsalot]

Hig is saying Kai ends up at Texas. Says visit went "tremendous and thats from both sides."

Feels good about Warren, Soso, and Mack.

Kai doesnt put himself out there as much as the rest of the prospect recruiters lol it seems he keeps to himself lol without causing too much attention

Talked to my Cedar Hill contact this evening about Damarkus. He said Ole Miss stopped by the school this morning to see Damarkus while he was working out. He said Damarkus was not interested in seeing them and coaches had to convince him to meet with them. Even after he agreed to see them, he made them wait until he finished his workout. Aggy showed up at the school this afternoon to see him. My source said coaches again had to convince Damarkus to meet with aggy. He said Damarkus is tired of the recruiting process but also wasn't excited to see Ole Miss or aggy coaches. My source also said Damarkus' father does not like Sumblin at all.

Thought this info was interesting and wanted to pass it on. Hope it's a good sign for Texas!

and later posted:

He said Joey is still mulling over the offer.  Not sure what he will end up doing.

 
 
My contact said Damarkus told him he will be around Cedar Hill all weekend so it looks like he's not taking visit to Austin. Contact said last week's visit considered official because of meals being purchased.
 
 
And as a bonus – monarch chimed in (knew you guys would love to see one of his posts)
 
i could only pray that you could come forth with some cool facilities updates.  nonetheless, the part about lodge's father not liking sumblin made me laugh.....

We need Warren, Soso, and Mack bad. Mack most of all, he is a natural born qb killer.

Imagine having Mack, Poona ford on dline. Malik, cherry, wheeler for LB. Boyd, hill, hall, and Elliott in the secondary.

Honestly that defense could get us into the playoffs.

what is going on with mr lodge?

IMO he is going to Johnny Reb - Ol' Miss, but recent SHA post  makes me think... not so fast my friend.  Maybe the lad is having second thoughts.

I have a feeling that I am lucky I left OBs before this Monarch character arrived. I promised myself I would not argue on messages boards anymore and he seems like the kind of poster that would push that promise.

Watson killed the excitement for Heard with his BS about Heard not picking up the offense as if he is an idiot...That, or the offense is too damn complicated for college kids and he needs to change the darn thing so it doesn't take two freaking years to learn.

I don't know if you heard.... Breaking News about a week ago the offense is changing¿¿¿

By the way I get that some hate Watson. ... whatever. .. #Itruststrong

so it seems to me that Texas is still in play with Damarkus from the sounds of it..which i still thinks he ends up at Ole Miss IMO

Why are you thinking that?

He has family/Miss ties

I think it was a package deal - no Murray, no Lodge,  He is clearly not impressed with our offense and/or QB situation.  While it is also true Ol Miss will have an inexp QB, Lodge met him and purportedly feels much better about that partnership now.  Also, he and Van Jefferson became friends, sadly for us.

But I feel just as strong aggy is out of it.  The dad doesnt seem to like Sumlin, plus Sumlin basically called Lodge a chicken after he uncommitted earlier.

But I worry not.  We have an excellent WR class for 2015 and already have another one for 2016

I feel pretty good bout Mack...Malik has been a huge pull on recruiting Mack..

That would be a sick defense. ..

The idea is that there are already some SOC players at Tech, and even more on the way with the SOC coach who has moved there.  So, my guess is that he could not say no to all of them, and agreed to visit.  But Tech will have to knock his socks off to pull off such a late flip.  I dont think they can do it, but have to concede that I am not part of the Johnson family inner circle.  

Johnson is underrated.  He will be great for Storng/Bedford defense.  He is smart player.  he drew high praise from the various coaches at the all star game in which he played well -- was one of the top 3 players.

Almost positive he has let the coaching staff know he won't coming to Texas.

Everyone that has a Twitter needs to retweet the tweet about how many definitive players strong has put in the NFL.
