2022 Recruiting Board/Thread

He out 

He needed to go, he was not producing on the recruiting front and not getting much out of any of our receivers other than Worthy on the field

Unacceptable misses

This seems like another reason to be optimistic. Coaches want to work for Sark and he has very high standard,  both in developing and recruiting.

Any clue who the sark after dark was the other night?

Hints were Campbell may have sent in his ppwk but still waiting to announce at the All-American game. We shall see.

We gotta stop worrying about how others are doing and self reflect; our program was an embarrassment this year; its sad bc yes for over a decade we've been nothing close to a blue blood program, we need yo get back to that, it comes down to blocking and tackling on the field...

It's been said a number of times:  We suck until we don't

still waiting on the "until we don't"

Hints were Campbell may have sent in his ppwk but still waiting to announce at the All-American game. We shall see. 

I haven't seen any major sources quoted as saying so (please share if anyone has info) but this is the thought.

It occurred late Friday night, just before the deadline for LOI to be sent in. Sark used the Mark Henry GIF, which has been used to signal OL commits previously. Campbells uncle (who is his coach) tweeted out two emojis at the same time (a flexing arm and praying hands). It was also pretty quite among the other coaches, meaning, I didn't see a wave of tweets being sent out. Perhaps this is because Campbell wanted this to stay relatively quite so he has his chance to announce. It also just makes sense that Texas is the clear choice for Campbell. Still lots of unknowns for him at OU, though, keeping Bedenbaugh there probably helped.

IT saying there's a good chance that Texas won't add an OL from the portal due to the recent additions to the '22 class.

If we don't hear about any portal names, it's a good indication of where they sit with Devon Campbell.

I should add that IT threw out some hints that Campbell has already signed with Texas.

Was hoping that they would take a tackle and guard from portal along with Campbell. Only more pressing need id at DB.

We're getting the Watts kid from Ohio State.

1 helps but need 4-3 

 

[TB14]

Staff closed on the OL well enough to only add someone that is a clear starter from the portal. If a backup former 4* is in the portal without much college playing time enters then I think we pass. 
 

Why sign that guy when we probably have someone better coming in with more eligibility?

 

[Eastexhorn]

zThen a 4 star with a little experence might be better than a HS player with no college experence.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

We have an entire OL with tons of experience and I don't think they're as good as the frosh coming in.

Its pretty rare to start Freshmen OL

That's true, but they usually have competition.

Every year its the same thing.  This guy is a day one starter. 

I still remember Patrick Hudson was the answer to everything and we didnt even see him until year 2?  then he medically retired I think.  Our OL has sucked wind for a very long time, even when Conner Williams was here.  To think some 17-18 year old OL is just going to stroll in here and start is very unusual and highly unlikely.  OL is one of those positions that takes a certain level physical toughness, stamina and mental understanding.  Its not like sticking a freshman RB into the system in year one.  Even if they are more talented than the existing group of linemen, which is more than likely true, its not going to be pretty at first.  They have to build an understanding and cohesiveness together as all OL have to.
