I'd switch Hill and Thomas. We need secondary help more than WR's after we took 6 receivers last year.

This was posted on OB. Not sure who the original source is.
SOSO JAMABO
Texas is "checking the pulse" on the super talented Plano West running back. Here's what I know about his situation.
UT would prefer him as an athlete but would offer as a running back, if it does offer.
He's cooled on A&M immensely. Not surprising, they refuse to run the ball even when it's time to put the game away versus a vastly inferior opponent in a close game.
Baylor is still in good shape, as is UCLA. Notre Dame thought they were the outright leaders and were expecting a commitment but now they think they've faltered. OU is still thought to be the leader but they have a logjam at running back, or the exact opposite of Texas.
Jamabo always liked Texas and at one point, long ago, Texas was the clear leader. I honestly think they can make a go at it here, but if they want to, they better hurry. Once you re-establish contact, you're on the clock.

Rinse and repeat. This is an endorsement which most coaches see only in their dreams!
Hook 'em, Charlie!
Kansas State, Baylor, TCU, West Virginia, Oklahoma andOklahoma State all have better records than Texas but the Longhorns still have the top-rated recruiting class in the Big 12 by Rivals.com and it further shows that Texas is still the class of that conference.
https://footballrecruiting.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1701350
One of the major problems, though, in Big 12 recruiting even with Texas is that there is a lack of top players committed to schools in that conference. There are no five-stars committed anywhere (10 five-stars have pledged to SEC schools) and only one Big 12 program (Oklahoma) has more than five four-stars committed. Texas and West Virginia have five each. Oklahoma State (two) and TCU have a combined three four-stars in this recruiting class.
With so many Big 12 programs having outstanding seasons, one argument could be made that recruiting rankings are not everything. That is legitimate. Another argument could be made, though, that these successes will be short-lived and teams that don't recruit well won't be in the national title hunt.
Texas is 4-5 in coach Charlie Strong's first season with the Mountaineers coming to town this weekend. Only two of its five four-star commits are even from the state of Texas. The Longhorns (ranked No. 15 nationally) need to do a better job landing top talent even if they have the best class in the Big 12.
Other programs are getting it done on the field but not necessarily with the highest-level recruits and to be a national player that needs to change.

Dev Clarington is cruising the sidelines during pre-game. He definitely looks the part.
