2018 Recruiting Board/Thread

[okiehorn]

Wow, imagine what this thread would be like if the Horns win their next 2 games.  Win on the field and recruits will be begging to be a part of something special.  Problem is, sometimes we can't get out of our own way.

Heck yes, IF we beat the #3 Sooners AND lost in double OT to #5 USC at the time, the players will be making the phone calls. And I personally think it's very feasible 

 

[DMAC]

Wonder if he has a commitment date?

No idea.  We havent heard anything about him in awhile.  I was hoping Daniel could give us an update of his status how many OT's the staff is hoping to get in this class. 

With the possibility of Conner leaving this position is very thin.   Leaving only 3 if that happens for next year.  I thought Okafor was supposed to be a guard?  Delance's transfer as well hurts the position. 

The OT's on the roster are:


LT


75


Nickelson, Tristian SR/TR/2


78


Okafor, Denzel SO/1


55


Williams, Connor JR/2 (injured)


RT


68


Kerstetter, Derek FR


71


Urquidez, J.P. RS FR

I still think we beat up tinker mayfield and the sooners

Daniel I was checking out your picks.  You have 2 picks for OT's one which is committed.  With our needs at OT its hard to believe we only have one in state verbal. 

Do we have a realistic chance on any of these other guys?  What about Wire?




Out of State


 




Junior Angilau


UT




Max Wray  


Ohio State




Jackson Carman


Ohio State




Nana Asiedu


Penn State




Nicholas Petit-Frere


Florida




Richard Gouraige


Florida




 


 




In State


 




Rafiti Ghirmai


UT




Colten Blanton


ags




Darrell Simpson


sooners




Cameron Wire


LSU




Jack York


SDSU

Coaches are prioritizing Angilau and Wire. They’ll get an official from Angilau. Wire visited back in the summer and I’d keep working him with the way LSU is playing.

They’ll probably take as many tackle bodies as they can get, but there aren’t any slam dunks sitting on the board. Gonna have to hustle on the trail.

Don't feel real good bout Angilua. If the OV happens, then all bets are off. But if he doesn't, I don't think Texas gets him.

The word going around on him is that he is a bit of a homebody and could stay close to home. 

 

[MBHORNSFAN]

Cook will have a spot if he wants one. And If Herman wins like I think he will Cook will be part of the 2018 class.

Hey look at this..... 

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

I’m waiting for confirmation from the kid, but it’s been reported that Joseph Ossai will be taking his official visit to Texas this weekend. 

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

Texas has been flirting with A&M LB Commit DaShaun White dating back to the summer. White has been deserving of an offer for awhile and there is some buzz (again) that an offer could be coming. Lets see what happens.

I've heard we are not on White's Christmas card list.

Don’t think the door is closed, but they are going to have to work harder than they probably would have this summer had they offered.

I like him a lot and would not count out Herman and Co.

Speaking of, whatever happened to Ghristmas-Giles? About recruiting depth.

I saw him suited up and on the sideline during last week's game.  Not sure how much playing time (if any) he's getting...He's #98 btw

 

[shotime73]

I dont get for the life of me why they didnt offer White from the get go

He’s still on the roster, but hasn’t seen much PT to date.

Certainly don’t count them out. But they need to stop beating around the bush and put an offer on the table. 

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

Agreed. His measurables checked out and the film is good. Nothing else to really see at this point. 

 

[CharcoalPuppy]

From what I remember he had an elite first step but didn't have a lot of upper body strength or something like that.
