2015 Recruiting Thread

I'm not. 99.9% sure he'll be a Longhorn next year.

Why are they recruiting Texas O-lineman anyways ? Plenty of them in their neck of the woods.  I understand recruiting skill players but come on.

Harbaugh is trying to build a pipeline. Can't blame him.

Yeah...It's getting to be unbearable though. So many elite players are leaving this state. Not only that, Houston is beating us out for players.

2017 Manvel safety

He has done this sort of thing before, but nothing happened.  But, we are supposed to be the leader in the clubhouse.

Andrew Fitzgerald isn't on the 2016 commit list. Just thought someone should know.

He's on this list:  http://sports.yahoo.com/footballrecruiting/football/recruiting/commitments/2016/texas-83

Which one are you saying he's not on?

I guess since Mack Brown signed all those top ranked classes we must of had some good bag men then. I wonder where they all have gone?  We sure could use them right about now. 

I had a purely self generated unsavory thought the other day that some of the Texas Big Money Donors might have been giving Mack a hand with some important recruits while Mack looked the other way (cough, I mean without Mack's knowledge).  Then when Charlie Strong came to town with his up-tight code of conduct, some of those BMD's were a bit put off about not being able to help out the program any more in the way they are best equipped to; hence generating a little bit of the anti-Strong sentiment.  

But I have self generated unsavory thoughts all the time and most of them are delusional.

Tell us more about these unsavory thoughts. lol

Mack ran a pretty clean program. Those I know of around BMD circles are very adamant about not going there. No one wants to put the U at risk.

I had just come back to delete my post when I saw that you had responded.

Glad to hear that you think UT is clean and I hope it remains so.  Like I said, I was only reporting my own suspicions, not any information from any source.

So I guess Quartney Davis started following some Horn-related accounts, and some of our coaches followed back

Kinda surprised but we will see if this goes anywhere

Do we really need this guy since we already have like 3 or 4 WR commits? Not saying I'm against getting the guy for the 2016 class

You definitely go after him. Not just because he's a stud 4* receiver but also because you get some momentum in pulling A&M commits away.

 

[Hiphopopotamos]

It means nothing, but...

Bobby Burton has put in CB's to Texas for Brandon Jones, Irvin Smith, and Zach Shackleford.

 

[BevoBlake]

Love the Jones and Shackelford movement. Still convinced Smith will go to Bama.

I say go after him only if he has blinding speed.

Okay, Al Davis.
