2015 TE Will Gragg (6'5, 235) Pine Bluff Ark

247 #6 composite national TE

A Pig Suey lean - but Strong has some sort of family ties, so we will see

Gragg "grew up a Texas fan" because of Vince Young.

Says he didn't become interested in the Razorbacks until his older brother played there.

But pigs have one commit already at this position and another waiting in the wings.

Interesting conversation on Twitter between Charles Omenihu, a current Longhorn commit and James Lockhart. Both have been going off about playing together. Lockhart also said he was down to visit Texas, if he gets invited. Omenihu, I love this guy. Already has become friends with Jeffery Holland a 5 star linebacker out of Florida (has exchanged numbers with him and is actively pushing him to Texas).

Maybe we're bringing in Omenihu to recruit?

I say that in jest because his highlight film isn't that impressive. Charles plays with decent leverage and a high motor, but he doesn't have elite first-step quickness for a DE. I can see him growing into a strong-side DE or DT, but I doubt he'll ever play "Buck" ala Jeffcoat.

Just my opinion.

I think Strong likes his awareness, if you watch his highlights, he has great vision, coach Strong will coach this guy up, Mack would never recruit this guy bc his staff was never great at developing players. #Hookem

Agree that Omenihu has potential and a good frame. I can see him as a 260 lb + strongside DE or DT. You're right, Strong will coach him up.

The John Burt news is sounding good.

WR John Burt told OrangeBloods today that Texas is definitely his leader.

An FSU source also told them they believe Burt ultimately picks Texas over FSU.

I've already found my favorite player in this class, Charles Omenihu. Holton Hill was tweeting about visiting Austin this weekend, and Aggy commit Jay Bradford had to chime in with his Aggy nonsense. Omenihu's response, "We play defense at Texas".

5 Star DT Tim Settle wants to visit Texas, and is setting up a visit.

5 Star DT Tim Settle wants to visit Texas, and is setting up a visit.

We offered Settle already, at least according to him.

Apparently we offered offered DT Tim Settle (6'3, 318) Manassas, VA5*

247's composite #6 DT national

According to 24/7, QB Ross Trail of Wynne, AR will be visiting UT next Saturday.

He was committed to Louisville until Strong left for Texas.

Now here is a committed recruit

Watched LHN replays of McIvor in action, that dude had an impressive arm in my opinion. Never saw him live, a few years prior to me hitting the 40 acres and really gearing up with Longhorn football.

Speaking of Rick McIvor. He is currently the Sheriff of Jeff Davis County. Here is an article of one of his recent adventures in law enforcement.

http://alpinedailyplanet.typepad.com/alpine-daily-planet/2012/07/man-rescued-from-davis-mountains-resort-by-dps-and-game-wardens.html

There was a great feature article on Rick in one of the states newspapers a few years back, but I could not find it. I did find this video interview on the Austin American-Statesman's archive, though, from when he was running for sheriff.
