@Juan Grande

Where do we stand with Omar Manning?

 

[DBut82]

Would the staff have any interest in this kid? He just competed at The Opening this past weekend. Don't know if he's on Texas' radar at all...

Is Tennison now considered gone? Everyones CB's are basically saying Bama. Do we have any other TE targets?

Unless the staff think they can convert McNeal or LJH we are pretty thin

First time poster long time stalker.

Just want to thank you guys for all the info on this forum. As a longhorns fan born and bred in Australia it's pretty much impossible to get any info on any recruiting or behind the scenes action.

I have never refreshed my phone more times then this years signing day and my work day was completely ruined(enhanced) by all the posts here.

I'm going to be in Austin for the UT v TCU game and hoping to get tickets. Can't wait for this season to begin!!

The 2016 cycle was a hell of a ride. I'm down to do it again in January.

Thank you for posting and thank you for being part of our community.

He told me in Oregon that the plan is to cut his list to 5 before the season and he said Texas would make that list. He's the biggest priority at the position right now.

Haven't heard his name come up, but you never know.

He's on flip watch. At this point there isn't much Texas can do until the season starts and him and his family don't seem to content on waiting to let things play out before making a decision.

Not sure what the contingency plans are at the position are at this point, but I don't see them rushing on to the next guy and will take time to evaluate all options.

Uh-oh....Would hate to lose another top recruit to Stanford.

I like where Texas sits with Walker based off some intel. I wouldn't fault him a bit if he chose Stanford though. They are in it for Little and Foster Sarell, who won the OL MVP out in Oregon.

I think he gone

I think he gone

Yup, he gone...unless he signs the dotted line.  But, he gone!

Hate to say it, but if I'm a TE, I'd be looking hard at Bama, Stanford, Arkansas, etc., teams that play a more conventional Pro-style offense and use the hell out of the TE.

Tight Ends are becoming an endangered species.... Like Fullbacks

 So are "pro-style" offenses.
