2018 Recruiting Board/Thread

[Harrison Wier]

Anything new on LB White?

Not that I know of. I think Texas is on the outside looking in. Crazy because if they offered him in the summer, he’s a Longhorn. 

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

Harrison, 

Other than those already commited and expected to sign, who else do you see joining this class?

 

[MBHORNSFAN]

Yes. He's signing early.

Apparently has told a few outlets he will announce January 6th and AA game.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Bonnito is a heavy Texas lean, but will sign at the AA game. Not this week.

Not upset with the noah banks decision to Florida. Kid already had four concussions. Don't see much promise there.

Personally miffed with Rondale Moore. I chased his stats for 16 straight weeks – and now this? Kentucky HS info is not easy to come by damnit! lol

Waddle . . . . I know everything says no, but Waddle isn't saying no. He could have signed with Aggy or somewhere else this week. Everything is set for him. But he won't. And he won't because he still hasn't let go of the idea of playing for Texas. Its not over, but there is a long way to go and a problem to get out of the picture.

JUCO OL doesn't seem to be working out very well. Prepare yourselves for a big nothing burger. In the end, Johnson is the one who probably would have helped us most.

Alexander will see Arkiesaw before a decision. The SEC pull might be enough to take him there. If not, we're in a good spot with him. He would already be committed if not for the late Pig interest.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

How does Kate like the list?  Is it a 1 Kate, 2 Kate or 3 Kate list?

Nice list

 

[Bear19]

SHA

JMO but the reason why Waddle is not signing is because he is a pre-Madonna.  And he may have his hand out.

Lyles involved. Thats been the hang up. 

 

[drgilbert]

Read today Waddle has a street agent that is making things difficult 

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

Does this open the door for Waddle?

Not expecting anything to materialize here.

You should bill Moore for all that work you put in. 

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

I’m going to laugh at the unhinged Louisville fan who jumped in my inbox talking crazy when I accidentally put a Texas pick in for Bonitto months ago if it comes to fruition. 

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

Slot recruiting hasn’t been pretty for Texas this cycle. They lack numbers at the position that can be difference makers, but have not handled addressing need well. Leaned on two flakey OOS players in Moore and Watkins and didn’t establish themselves well enough with in-state contingency plans when it became clear Watkins and Moore were having lusty eyes for other programs. 

I don’t fault them for the Waddle recruitment because that’s not exactly a straight forward deal, but now they are left scrambling to fill a position of need. 

 

[HORNfromETX]

I know the shipped sailed last week on Trevor Elbert, but we may need to jump back on. Rather get someone vs no one.

 

[DBut82]

We need to shoot a video of "The Best That Never Was" 30 for 30 to these kids with "street agents"...maybe being reminded of how your money gets finessed from these family "friends" will wake em up.  Or have em Google Reggie Bush...

 

[Bear19]

With what happened at Oregon you would think Lyles would be out of action. But Money always talks. And the NCAA really doesn't want to catch anyone.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

I know, week after week I wondered when he was going to jump ship and give me relief. lol

Apparently there are still concerns about his shoulder that caused him to have to leave A&M.

Marcus Dupree is probably a better example, but I get what you mean.

Heard earlier this year he was back floating around. You’d think guys like that would be kept away from kids permanently.

But who is going to keep them away? There's no downside for the kids. They get some walking around money and if the agent gets busted nothing happens to them.
