Tatum visiting OU today.

I'm sure the kid is just enjoying his recruitment, and I don't blame him. Nothing is set in stone until we win. It's one thing to talk the hype...gotta prove it to them as well. It's HUGE Tatum came out and committed in general to the good guys. Thanks for keeping us updated slimer! I like reading your stuff

Nothing is set in stone until they sign & fax the LOI. Stoops is putting on the full court press.

Thanks! I hope to catch a couple of our commits this upcoming season and give my take. Ingrams team has a game right up the road from me in Whitehouse I plan on catching and Arp isn't far away from me either. Arp plays my hometown this year and they are a classification below Arp so I'm hoping Demarvion doesn't annihilate someone lol.

Heck ya that will be nice watching them! Tatum comes to Muskogee first game

Of the year which is bout 5 miles from me so I'll be attending and seeing what he is all about live. There another 2019 recruit I seen on here from the okc area I believe that I may try to catch. I enjoy watching D1 talent in HS. It's not near as common here in Oklahoma as it is in Texas lol or great D1 talent I mean.

Went through Muskogee once on the way to KC for a Royals game and Sister-in-laws wedding and go through OKC a lot to North West Kansas. Stopped in Miami, OK and ate at a place called Waylon's KuKu burger ( pretty good place to me! ). Tell Tatum we need and want him at Texas!!

Marcel Southall ends up at Tyler Junior College. Heard Blinn passed on him, so it makes you wonder.

So Ghirmai announced a top 4 and it didn't include Bama'. UCLA, LSU, Florida, Texas.

Found that interesting. He loved his LSU visit awhile back. Texas still has a shot though.

I've heard Texas is in the drivers seat again. I've also heard he may commit before summer is over.

If that's the case then things changed recently, because they were slipping.

Inside Texas reporting that Rafiti Ghirmai will camp at Texas on the 13th. Working on confirming.

The IT guys don't feel too good about the Tatum situation, either.

Would be more worried about our on field product next year. If we win, expect a great class for 2018. If not, expect another long year. Herman is great at selling the dream/future. He still has to show he can produce.

You could have substituted "Strong" for "Herman" and that was the story the last 3 years.

I mean if you think about it, Strong and Herman both had similar resumes coming into Texas. Both had championships with Meyer as coordinators and had success as head coaches coming into Texas. But since Herman has been at Texas before, I think he has a better understanding of how things work in the state. He also has the support of the big money boosters, something Strong never had. I think Herman also inherits a better roster than what Strong had coming in.

Lulz IT and all the other pay sites were saying just earlier this week they think Tatum sticks and his commitment was growing stronger. Now they all panic and switch the narrative because he takes a visit everyone on the planet knew he would?? It was him and his mom only, on his recent Texas visit the entire family came. Dad loves Texas and doesn't like OU at all. When Herman curb stomps Big Game Bob's ass in the Cotton Bowl this year just like he did last year with lesser talent and Tatum still wants to go to OU then it's his loss. Herman ain't scared of Bob on the field or going head-to-head on a recruit, them bozos can say that Rising was no big loss and blah-blah, but deep down they are worried about Texas for the first time in a long time. We should have beaten OU last year if it wasn't for not making any defensive adjustments whatsoever and should have won 3 years ago with Swoops playing QB. I'll put my money where my mouth is: Herman would have gone 3-0 against OU the last 3 years and I'm calling a win this year. Herman hates Stoops. He wants to deliver a beat down at the Cotton Bowl this year more than anything. Enjoy the ride gentlemen, great things are coming.

I think IT is reacting to a tweet from the kid after his visit was done. Something like "everything happens for a reason" with praying hands or some such.
