2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

Malik Jefferson's mom told OB this, [SIZE=small]"I'm rooting for Texas. I just have to say I'm rooting for Texas," Mrs. Jefferson said. "I think Charlie Strong has a lot to offer. I think the program, just being at Texas, just to say I graduated from Texas, is a big thing. And I think he'll have structure and that's what I'm looking at for him." [/SIZE]

 
Wesott Eberts, "For the Texas fans wondering if #Horns are still recruiting Soso Jamabo, he said he hasn't heard from new staff, but still has interest."

Soso is an interesting player. I think he's an elite athlete just don't think he's a RB. Warren is a much more physical back and why Texas has prioritized him. Still don't think Texas is done with Soso for some reason though.


 
Offer to 2016 RB Kyle Porter of Katy

He ran for 1877 yards and 23 touchdowns on 255 carries last season.

"Per Inside Texas, a coach at Houston Lamar has told them Texas is not currently recruiting QB/ATH JW Ketchum."

This is why I like what Texas is doing in terms of recruiting. Ketchum would be a take in terms of recruiting rankings but he's not a fit if he wants to play QB. Texas sure as heck shouldn't be taking Ketchum at QB if we have Gentry and are still recruiting Locksley. The other reason I like this move is Ketchum has had a bunch of off the field issues. You don't take a player like this unless he shows some improvement in behavior or it's just a waste of scholarship. Recruiting is not always about who you get but who you don't take. 


 
Burt's dad is coming with him to Austin in a week or so for the first time to meet the coaching staff. The mom has already met the coaching staff. I see a commit coming very soon. 

 
According to 24/7, 2016 WR Tren'Davian Dickson of Navasota believes he will receive an offer this weekend if he decides to attend the "Under the Lights" camp.

Add 2016 QB Dillon Sterling-Cole of West Orange-Stark to the camp list, per Inside Texas.

 
Add SDE Tyrell Thompson of Copperas Cove to Austin on the 18th as well, per OrangeBloods.  Current UH commit but recruiting has picked up - holds offers from OU and Baylor.


Per 24/7, CB Holton Hill will visit FSU this week before heading to UT on Friday. 


LB/Ath Deandre McNeal will be there.  Teammate Malik Jefferson's brother's birthday is this weekend, won't be attending.

This was posted by Scholz over at OB. 

Baylor is having their camp on the same day as UT is (July 18th). Someone posted the list of recruits going to Baylor's camp on IT.  After looking at the recruits going to UT's camp compared to Baylor's camp, Baylor's camp boils down to a handful of their current commits, another handful that UT is not recruiting, and an Aggie commit.  The aggy picnic was apparently arranged solely to keep Daylon Mack from visiting Austin.


Here's the Baylor list. Outside of OL, ouch. And one of those may come off the board when he heads down 35 later that day. 

2015 QB Chad President **** 
2015 WR Blake Lynch **** (needs a ride) 
2015 LB Clay Johnston *** 
2015 LB Breckyn Hager *** 
2016 QB Zach Smith **** 
2015 LB Malik Jefferson - might be Wednesday ***** 
2016 OT Patrick Hudson ***** 
2016 OT JP Urquidez **** 
2016 OL Austin Myers *** 
2016 OL Mackenzie Nworah *** 
2016 ATH D'Eriq King **** 
2016 WR Marquez Stevenson 
2017 LB Baron Browning **** 
2017 QB Chris Robison **** 
2017 RB Eno Benjamin *** 
2017 OL Ethan Harvey *** 
2018 OT Will Lawrence **** 
2017 OL Jack Anderson - Looking for a ride ****

 
Inside Texas is reporting that Deunte Chatman will be at the camp. Interesting. Texas showed some interest but nothing really happened. Chatman had the highest rating at the Houston Nike Combine event.
