2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

This guy would look nice in orange

Stevenson decommitting wouldnt shock me, UT seems to be in good position for some RBs though. IMO Ed Oliver may be the BEST player in the class of 2016. That kid is a freak.

 
Another FLA offer

4-star RB Jordan Cronkrite

Miami commit -- close friends with Tim Irwin who we offered recently

#15 ATH by Rivals

"He told me he wants to build a relationship," Cronkrite said of Strong. "Texas is a great program. They want to me on campus as soon as possible. I'm going to talk about it with my parents."

2015 3-star CB Shedlrick Redwine of Miami will visit
Was committed to WVU at one point
Louisville is the current favorite, however, "there have already been two projections in the 247Sports Crystal Ball that Redwine will end up in burnt orange -- one from a 247Sports Minnesota contributor and one from a 247Sports South Florida contributor."  http://www.burntorangenation.com/recruiting/2014/10/28/7085131/texas-longhorns-recruiting-visits-tim-irvin-sheldrick-redwine-ronnie-hoggins

4.77 40-yard dash for Redwine?  That's gotta be a misprint

At 5' 8" 155 lbs., Hoggins is a shrimp.

Another site lists him at 167lbs

But yeah, thats why he hasnt generated as much interest as his talent suggests

He is a player (has a very high amount of picks (13!) on the season), just a really small one.

Horn Digest says he is "blessed with great instincts, speed and technique."

Also has offers from Louisville, TCU, Wisconsin, Miami, Nebraska

JUCO OT Brandon Hodges (6'5, 295) of East Mississippi CC had to cancel his official visit scheduled for WVU.

We think he will reschedule -- possibly for Dec 6, the same weekend TE Chris Clark will visit.

This might turn into a huge weekend for Strong & Co.

Crystal Ball looks good http://247sports.com/Player/Brandon-Hodges-58854

No disresepect to MarkTwain, but a lot of times it is the size of the dog in the fight that\ matters.  He needs another 20-25lbs to handle some of the bigger, more physical WR's.

True, I was referring to his height. I assume that his frame can gain more weight or else or coaches wouldn't be recruiting him. I'm sure Mark Twain does not feel disrespected.

I'm assuming the same thing.  I trust the coaching staff for seeing something in him to make the offer.  They know a hell of a lot more about that than I do.

A Big 12 assistant whose team has faced Texas this season said that Strong isn’t being given enough credit for the job he is doing considering what he inherited. “They’re going to be good,†the assistant said. “They’ve got defensive players right now and they don’t have a whole lot of offensive weapons right now. The [Tyrone] Swoopes kid will be a good quarterback for a couple of years. They obviously need to develop their offense line. It’s Texas, but where’s the talent at? I know he kicked some of those kids off, but where’s the rest of them?â€

The assistant laughed because he knows the answer is that former Texas coach Mack Brown didn’t leave much talent behind. As much as Brown’s shadow looms over the program in that regard, it’s even bigger in recruiting after his 16 years of backslapping and glad-handing with in-state high school coaches.

“If they give him time to do what he needs to do, they’ll be just fine,†he said. “They’re going to recruit better than anybody. They’ll get the state back and take it from A&M. What they’re selling right now is nothing but you’re a Texas kid, you need to play at Texas. Period. It’s only going to get better. He’s doing a good job.â€
