Has anyone heard anything on projected class size.  I figured this would be a smaller class with 83 scholarships on the books with 18 graduating seniors.  I was thinking they would take 20-22 in this cycle.

Herman will pretty much take 25+ every year. The only reason that won't happen is if a particular class is weak and the next class is really strong. Or vice-versa.

Who is Desmon White and am I understanding this correctly – he's dissing TCU?

He’s a current TCU player. Formerally of DeSoto.

Well his tweet is not going to work out too well for him with GP although he may already know that per his tweet to begin with.

I'm actually quite lost trying to decipher those posts.  Not only can I not understand what he is saying, the lack of punctuation drives me insane.  It embarrasses me when I spell something wrong or use poor grammar on this site trying to post via my phone.  At least that's my excuse .

Please let this happen for the Horns.  That would be an excellent Bday surprise for me.

Agree, don't really understand why that was put out there with the seemingly solid commitment he gave.  Maybe a hijacked account....hopefully that is why.

Well EJ and Roach just recently put in picks to Texas.  Let's see what happens.  @Sirhornsalot what are you hearing?  @MBHORNSFAN ?

I remember when Daniel said his recruitment had reached ridiculous levels. I assumed at the time Daniel meant the coaches were hounding Shepherd, but with that tweet I wonder if Shepherd isn't promoting the drama.

Seems nobody knows what to think of it except that's it's not serious, just a young kid goofing around and/or wanting to make sure the attention doesn't go away. Certainly doesn't bode well for the mental make up either way.

He was already a guy who has had a screwy recruitment as we’ve said previously. This just confirmed what we already knew. Recruit him until he signs.

There’s some good vibes with this one. Texas is planting a flag in a major way out West this cycle and this could be the next step in doing just that.

It’s not on his Twitter, did he delete the tweet?

If we land Tufono, I hope that leads to having a shot at Faatui Tuitele

There may be a few hiccups going forward in the Shepherd recruitment but I think he sticks.  He isn't going OOS and there have been numerous situations with the aggy staff already from lack of communication (mentioned several times) to them saying he's not allowed to visit. 

We've gotten the 2 best Left Tackles in-state the last 2 years now with Moore and now Shepherd IMO.

And damn you Stanford.  This would have been an elite OL haul with Bragg.

Happy Birthday, texbound, regardless!  One of these days they'll be goals, not milestones.  Lol

He could have.

Doubtful. Getting Tufono in itself is an accomplishment.
