2019 Recruiting Board/Thread

[North Texas Golfer]

So when the intel said yes to all three, it was never "yes" to anyone.

This is the strangeness of the Longhorn Nation. Good news or potential good news is rejected and we wait until it trends bad before we buy into it.

We have been groomed to expect disappointment, even though we seldom really experience it. And even though the in-homes TH will have could change everything all over again in this cycle. 

I'll wait and see how this plays out.

Yea, reading recruiting threads is like reading game day threads during the first half of the game when everyone tells us how much we suck and how we have no chance to win that week's game and how everything is falling apart. 

They are usually right until they are wrong.

Yeah, we need more five star running backs like D’ontae Foreman... I would worry more about our offensive line than the running backs. We will be fine.

  Last year it was defensive linemen.This year it is running backs. We have another two months to come up with depth at running back.  I have no doubt Herman and Co. will reel in what is needed. They are great evaluators of talent and are well versed on the recruiting trail. 

Wasn’t D’onta a 3 star and his brother Armanti the 4 star?

I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic on this one.  Also, you're correct in that D'onta was a low 3-star and Armanti was the 4 star.

Sanders 1%

Bru 35%

Cain 25%

Fong says Penn State for Cain. Ej just posted as of right now it's Penn State for Cain as well. 

Lets see what happens the next week or so.

I thought he might’ve been being sarcastic. Sort of like Colt and Baker being 5 stars.

No doubt Herman has a chance to make a move this week.

SHA at HS

Sanders 30%

Bru 50%

Cain 0% – only because I'm tired of the ride. I was never really enamored with Cain and think we'd be just as well off with Barlow from Newton.

We will be fine even if we miss out on all 3 last years class and this years is going to be special.

In this pic, it looks like the kid in gray is in the eighth grade chasing an NFL running back. It's a good thing the Newton player is well ahead. I'd hate to see what he would do to the kid in gray head-to-head. It would not be pretty.

Is it behind a pay wall? If not would appreciate someone copy and post.

My guess is Caleb Johnson.  Herman and Orlando did an in-home with him today.

 

[Bear19]

Would Hoofkin fit Doc’s post?

Exact same reason I feel it’s Caleb Johnson, would be a huge addition for 2019

The big time silent is not one of the IMG or Mater Dei targets, correct?
