2023 Recruiting Board/Thread

[Eastexhorn]

Recruiting wise, they just started pulling the large humans they need in the last cycle.  I think they'll be ready by the time the move occurs, but I'm not a paper tiger guy.  This team has been lackluster for far to long to get excited about over  recruiting classes until they put it together on the field.  Championships are the point, nothing else matters. 

Championships are the point. Wish Brown had known that. Great recruiternot so much coach. 

Mathews aoon.

I picked the 6 teams who have made the most playoff appearances in recent years Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Clemson, Notre Dame, Oklahoma along with Texas and Texas A&M. Nothing magical about the numbers I picked top 50, top 100, top 200 and top 300. Just the way I picked to look at it. And I did it primarily as a % of total commits rather than number of commits. To me, a team with 6 commits out of 18 in the top100 is doing better than a team with 6 commits out of 24 in the top 100, if that makes sense. 

Love this analysis. Can you post your results - I know you did share at least some of the info previously

IT wrote today that TE Duce Robinson of Phoenix, AZ continues to be intrigued by the additions to Texas' class.

Sources telling them Texas and USC are his top two schools and he's eager to see Austin in a few weeks.

The Texas baseball coaches are also interested, so my guess is they'll be involved with his upcoming official visit.

Everything is hard here 

Herman insisted on making things harder than they needed to be.

I sometimes wonder if he saves his job had he played Bijan more in 2020.

Thanks. Will be glad to post results. I typically update the info on Monday mornings so I'll try and get that posted later that day.

Do we have room for all 10?

Do we have room for all 10?

Hamilton from IT said staff would go as high as 30 in this class if they were the right ones

 

[Eastexhorn]

Do we have room for all 10?

Sure plenty of room just run off 16 of last class super stars. Next years recruits are like back up QBS, most popular.?

Won't be any room for anyone that doesn't seem to be progressing. Hopefully the staff knows what they are doing.

I think we find room for any of the above 10, except for perhaps Mikal HP. If we land Hale, I am not sure he is still a take.

Sounds like how Saban runs his Bama program. 

Totally good with this approach. After all, CFB is a business now. Win or get left behind.

Still  16 is alot of attrition for one year. Espically for coaches second year.
