2019 Recruiting Board/Thread

....so I heard that Whittington has cancelled his trip to aTm......nice!

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

I feel that.  Now with that said tho Daniel, do you prefer Glass ahead of this kid?  I know zero about Glass other than the comments I've read on these threads...

I would have Glass behind Cain. He suffered an injury and it looks like he lost a step in the burst department and of course the Katy RB stigma applies there.

Our old pal Mike Roach thinks Texas is in a real good spot for OT Stacy Wilkins out of Arkansas.

Totally agree, and I'm not a Cain fan.

Not exactly. Tape > 40 times. Also his “laser timed” 4.41 is a huge jump from what he tested at the Opening Regional so I’m a tad bit suspicious. He doesn’t look 4.41 fast on tape so I’m taking it with a grain of salt. 

TBH, he didn't look 4.41 fast in the vid where he claimed that time. Agree with you on this one. Good player, but 5 star RBs are special and jump off the screen. He doesn't do that for me. Still would love to have him.

There’s a poly connection here with Recruiting Assistant Jake Langi that deserves mentioning. He was key in several recruitments down the home stretch last cycle.

Hopefully he gives the 5* DT and ILB out of Hawaii something to think about.

The tackle is set to visit this spring so it’s helping some.

Texas has had a lot of success with players of Nigerian descent. If they can come close to that success with Polynesians, I would be all for it. Great on the field and generally very good character off of it.

The recently moved Lewis Cine (formerly of Massachusetts) is reportedly visiting Texas this weekend. I’ve reached out to confirm.

Confirmed.

A name to watch going forward is Katy Cinco Ranch LB David Gbenda. Visited for the JD and will be back up this weekend. His film is offer worthy IMO.

Confirmed. 

Watched some tape of him last night and was definitely impressed. Any word on whether him moving to Cedar Hill is going to impact his recruitment significantly? Landing him would make up for losing out on Brian Williams imo.

It would make it far easier and more likely to be productive, IMO.

I'm not as in love with Williams as others are.

The proximity definitely can’t hurt.
