2015 Recruiting Thread

Dickson...Wouldn't be surprised if his commit isn't solid. Navasota area has always been Aggy country...I was surprised when he committed to us.......Plus with him being a great WR and the offense Aggy has, along with Baylor and TCU in the state; its gonna be tough recruiting WRs to put on the Burnt orange if we aren't in the hunt for titles. Baylor throws the ball about 70 times a game. Who wouldn't want to play WR there ? Its a no-brainer...We are going to have to rely on some Shipley types. My puzzlement is why a great RB wouldn't want to play for Texas if we can get some beef to block for them. Bama gets 5* RBs all the time, even when they have two or three on their roster. We should be able to do the same.

With that said...We need Dickson. He is a stud.

FYI, Dickson de-committed from Baylor to come to us. We weren't in the hunt for a title when that happened.

I never said we would never sign a good WR.  I said it will be tough to get them if we aren't in the hunt for titles since we are not a predominately passing team like the TCUs, Baylor's, and Aggy type teams who throw 70 times a game......If you are an 18 yr old WR ( not wearing orange colored glasses ), what type of offense would you want to play for ? Aggy, TCU, Baylor, or Texas ? Maybe  knowing you have a great chance for a title could sway you to play for a team that doesn't throw throw throw.....Otherwise what ya gonna do wanting t get to the NFL ?

So how do you explain John Burt and Ryan Newsome signing with the 2015 class and Tren'Davian Dickson, Collin Johnson and Reggie Hemphill-Mapps committing for 2016?

 
 
Johnson ...his dad played for UT...good reason to come to Texas.

Burt and Newsome....???? Did they have an offer from Baylor, TCU, or Aggy ? 

I guess a few just love something about Texas.

Besides, we will always get a couple here and there. Baylor, etc can't take them all.

I just don't see us getting the elite unless we can show them we will throw the ball round more successfully like the spread offensives do.

Again if we can rush for 300 yards we SHOULD get the elite RBs.

BUT...we should be having DBs, DLs, etc knocking the doors down to come here....but.....Why aren't we ? Puzzling....

Logic doesn't apply with these types Blake.. Only their opinion matters -  and it is always right

But nice post I didn't realize that there were so many offers for both of those guys.

Thanks

Don't ruin GBT's narrative now. Texas just keeps getting "lucky" and landing a bunch of highly touted WRs. These are the type comments that make everyone think GBT is a troll.
