2018 Recruiting Board/Thread

I do. Some will think we're settling, but we're not.

I gotcha now!

Landry? I'll take that in a heartbeat.

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

Hearing that Ossai is trying to set up a visit for the weekend.

Has nothing to do with Kate though.

I don’t know what this kid will do at this point. Feels like he has been looking for a reason to commit to A&M, but the Sumlin stuff has muddied the waters to at least make him reconsider.

Leveston is my guess.

Probably will pick up an OL commit this weekend and get another to be a heavy Texas lean....

Mr. Seahorn you took the words right out of my mouth. The only thing I want to add to that is it seems hes been told different information as to whats going on and it seems for him to rethink his choices right now

This guy is taking an OV this weekend and he's got some damn impressive hudl highlights.

Woke up those morning and watched his cutups and I’m sold. He’d have an offer already if I was Texas.

LB/DE Trumane Bell is visiting this weekend

Probably a contingency plan, but he had a very strong senior year and if he ends up at UTSA it will be a steal for the Road Runners.

Jackson and Bell’s hudl links for those interested.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say if we don’t get Waddle UT will still be mighty fine in that position for years to come. WR is stacked and this recruiting class seems to not be any different

I like Waddle's use of a shishkebab imoji for FSU in his tweet above.

So does last nights laying a turd hurt us in any way? I’m sure it didn’t help...

Probably doesn’t help with the overall ceiling of the class, but lets see how things play out with the Early signing period.

So I’m taking that as we most likely won’t hang on to #2 recruiting class by February huh

It was going to be tough to do so anyway, but they will still probably finish in or close to Top 5, which is still plenty good.

Alabama lost today. Miami last yesterday. 

CFB is strange this year. 

 

[bevo38]

I don't expect to see the class fall apart.  These kids know it wasn't them losing games...when they get to Texas they will never lose!!

I think we missed a chance to be one of the "storylines" of the season.  If we could have gone 8-4 with a win over USC or OU or OSU, we could have attracted attention from recruits nationwide.  But we are still going to add a lot of talent to the roster.

 

[DMAC]

I am sure you are being sarcastic. 

Wasnt this the same narrative when we were recruiting MJ 3 years ago?  Yes it was.  Be apart of bringing Texas back to glory! 

Its unfortunate but he just lost his last game in DKR to TEXAS TECH!  I doubt he returns next year.  Its like the same ole spin every year.  Just you wait til next year.  Just wait til this QB comes in.  Just wait til this coach is gone and next one gets here.  Just wait.  LOL well F@#K waiting.

If I need an excuse I will just borrow one from some of you guys.  Plenty to go around for everyone. 

This Tech game stinks more than Maryland did.  The coaches were out coached and players looked like the players of old.  A few exceptions Boyd made DBU proud.  

But hey brighter days ahead cause in the words of TH the offensive guru  "They are kids" and I quote him from post game when asked why we didnt play better....."I DONT KNOW"  Whew!  I am glad he cleared that shit up.

Ground Hog Day.  Nine years later and Allen would beat our horns in a scrimmage tomorrow.  MENSA baby.
