2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

[BevoBlake]

This is a 2016 recruit and we're not missing out on Warren.

I have little confidence in Sosa ever making a visit, much less committing. I think he commits to UCLA before his scheduled visit to UT.

Brossette on the other hand, is a realistic possibility. 

Brossette is a must get in my opinion. I think he could prove to be the most talented back in this class. Bold prediction I know but I'm going to stick by it.

For those that don't like the look at me part of recruiting...you may just want to stop following recruiting. I can see you being annoyed by it I guess. But no one forces you to follow recruiting. It's a pretty neat time for these guys. It's a once in a life time process and they should enjoy it as much as possible. It's a time for them to be as selfish as they need to be bc ultimately it's them who have to be at these universities for years. I see fans and alumni for schools all over who get upset and tweet at kids...like they take personal exception to these guys not picking their schools, and from them enjoying the process. Them tweeting their schools and what they wear would be less of a big deal if there weren't 30 sites devoted to getting a quote from a 17/18 year old...I'm not saying I don't enjoy the updates, but I hate when grumpy guys who a lot of the time have not been through the process tell these young men how they should do it.

Haha. Grumpy guys?

We  dont know the whole story when it comes to this circus.   When recruits tweet about a "RELEASE DATE coming soon" then name their top 25 schools or say I will be wearing my school's color underwear 2 days before I announce, it is just too much.  Gee coach why didnt you personally recruit me and kiss my butt like Stumblin or Stoops did.  Oh well sounds like a premadonna pedestal problem to me.

I for one would be embarassed if my son made those type of remarks or acted that way to the press or coach.  

I have a ton of respect for the coaches doing this type of work.  I  wonder how many times they use charmin on their lips.  I couldnt do it.  LOL

I hope you're right - Warren is a perfect fit in the ball-control pro-style offense Strong wants to run.  Really hoping that he's made it clear to the Texas coaches his intentions.

You're right though - if Warren is likely for the Longhorns, then I can't see why Soso would visit.

UCLA is on him (Sosa) A LOT harder than we are.

I can't remember the Horns ever getting a recruit that played the "cap shuffle game".  Don't think it'll happen with Malik either.

Shiro Davis?

Yeah..the coaches know that this is the game..but no one forces any of us to follow it, that's the point..if you (anyone) complains about the process, just don't follow it. Don't like that these guys put out top school or release dates don't follow them on twitter.

I just find it just as silly when people want as much access into the thought process of these guys, then get upset when they get it...and they seem to lose track of the idea that they are 17//18 years old...Ten years again I was 18, and lets be honest thats the time to be self centered and self serving

To the asking why a head coach isnt the lead recruiter, I think that's a fair question if other schools HCs are doing it. I don't look at it as entitlement. , but I think The process of being recruited is fun, its also nerve racking, it's good to ask any and every question you can think of.

We did an in-home Sunday with 4-star 2015 WR Carlos Strickland (6'4, 194) of Dallas Skyline 

Committed to Tech back in October

Same HS as 4-star LB Anthony Wheeler

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Ok, like it really means anything, here's my updated list of who we'll likely get:

Florida

Tim Irvin, DB

Devonaire Clarington, TE

Devante Davis, DB

Gilbert Johnson, WR

Decommits (1)

John Burt

Texas

Chris Warren, TB

Ryan Newsome, WR

Kris Boyd, DB

Malik Jefferson, LB

Kingsley Keke, DT

Anthony Wheeler, LB

Carlos Strickland, WR

Unknown QB

 

[Hiphopopotamos]

Wheeler and Strickland would be really nice pickups if as expected we lose out on Jefferson and Burt de-commits.

 

[Juan]

We like Clarington and he likes us

But he has some hs transcript issues

I dont know if they can be cleared up or not

I posted something about it several pages back .....

I think they'll take him and try to clear up everything later.

And they better because taking Clarington will cost us the other highly rated TE.

Okay, I'll play. And my mine sure doesn't mean anything.

Of the 11 players you listed, I think we get either 5 or 6 of them.

 

[Bear19]

I like sirhornsalot list better than North Texas Golfer's.

I'm going with SHA until he is wrong. Again. 😉

Hey, I like his list better as well

I just don't think we get all of those players

 

[texbound]

I think we get these guys

Tim Irvin, DB

Devonaire Clarington, TE

Devante Davis, DB

Gilbert Johnson, WR

Chris Warren, RB

Ryan Newsome, WR

Kris Boyd, DB

Chris Clark, TE

Nick Brousette, RB

Anthony Wheeler, LB

Carlos Strickland, WR

Holton Hill, DB

I also think we lose Burt.

Just my thoughts on this class.

Five-star QB (2015) Kevin Dillman is transferring from La Mirada, Calif to Denton Guyer. He goes 6'4, 220
