2018 Recruiting Board/Thread

Harrison, 

Other than those already commited and expected to sign, who else do you see joining this class?
I see some more DL joining such as Moro Ojomo out of Katy and Courtre Alexander from Oklahoma. Alexander changes a bit if OU offers. Also seems like Nik Bonitto, OLB out of Florida is trending towards Texas. That’s unexpected, but helps with missing out on White if they do. The staff is going to probably reach for some OL prospects as well and hope they become serviceable.

This won’t give folks the warm fuzzies. Coburn is a huge need and will likely take all of his visits now. Meekins needs to earn his paycheck over the next month.

All coaches leading the recruitment of linemen on both sides of the ball need to earn their paychecks. All the 4 snd 5 star skill guys mean nothing if we can't win in the trenches.

 
Not good for Texas. Coburn and Ingram were both guys who were questionable in signing early, and there’s a real chance now that neither sign tomorrow.

 
Has Herman done his in-home with Coburn yet?

It's always been reported he wasn't signing early.

It wasn’t for sure he wouldn’t sign Early. He had been going back and forth and it was a possibility he did after his official to Texas. Not sure on Herman using an in-home.

 
I wouldn't get to worried with who doesn't sign early. Its new for the athletes and some want the experience.

Lets be glad if we get some early and view the rest as "business as usual". If the ones we are after don't sign early elsewhere we will just sign them in February.

I’d agree in some cases, but it Coburn’s case it certainly is worth monitoring considering several schools are making hard pushes. 

 
Just read some of Chips thoughts. Said defense is still kicking offense’s ass. Then he talked about players and parents unhappy with TH. Said he ignored players in the hallway and didn’t care about them. 

 
To sum up:

Rondale Moore,

Coburn,

Alexander,

no juco OL thus far?

Not a good day, overall hopefully Cook sees a chance to be a difference maker.  I am more surprised we cant land one JUCO OL at THE University of Texas where immediate playing time is probable.  That is just effin pathetic.

I'd be wary of Chip Brown's sensationalizing. Besides that, if you're gonna call out your coach, have the balls to attach your name to it.

When you have players who have not given a shit for years and now have a coach who is pushing them to be there best you're going to have some disconnect.... Urban Meyer and Saban are both dicks and funny you don't hear this shit in their programs.. Why? Because you either get in the boat or get the F*** out.

 
Eric at Inside Texas just said still 85% Texas... Nothing to worry about right now...
I’m glad Eric feels that way, but that percentage is before any other visits have taken place. Coburn has proven to be an indecisive decision maker througout the process so in my opinion this will be something to watch closely until the fax comes in.

Agreed. Also should be mentioned he had to retract a portion of his piece because he got heat from a parent and from folks in Austin.
