2024 Recruiting Board/Thread

[Basis Points]

Haha.  TFloss, you indirectly got me super excited when I read this weekend the staff got a major person they wanted and also there is a commit at 7pm tonight and I open this thread after 7pm and this is the first post I see.  Didn't take me long to realize my mistake, but funny timing all the same.

Right on cue Texags posters are saying Kibble wasn't a take, after bigger targets, blah blah blah.

aggy gonna aggy, it's what they do

Haha, sorry bud.

At least Texas is looking very good for Simmons.

For OL Eugene Brooks IV, IT said he's a take at this point if Saina and Ivy choose other schools.

I see so many OL names. Can someone give me a breakdown of which ones are Tackles vs Interior prospects According to the staff.
 

Trying to organize it is confusing when looking at who has a spot and who doesn’t. 

 

[TFloss32]

IT saying one Texas target is sitting down with his high school coach today to let him know a decision is made.

Not sure if he already committed to Sark.

Hamilton at IT with another "hi" this morning.

IT hinting today it's possible Texas doesn't take an LB this cycle.

I'd hope we would take one.  Stay on Smith until the ink dries.  The in-state LB class in 25' looks real good though.

CENTER
Cruz (Texas heavy favorite, commitment likely within 48 hours)

GUARDS
Brooks IV (Texas appears to lead, but Kibble commitment may have taken his spot)
Carter (scheduled to officially visit in September)
Ivy (A&M, LSU and Texas - not clear who leads, but Texas likely to take him)
Kibble (committed to Texas)
Saina (priority for Texas and they look good)

TACKLES
Baker (down to Ohio St, Oregon and Texas)
Calhoun (fight between Georgia and Texas)

Lets hope this does not happen. Losing 3 and no take does not make sense.

On OL looks like the hand writeing is on the wall. The two OL everyone has been expecting to portal will be comming.

You're saying that two Texas OL currently on the roster - we have been expecting to hit the portal, will indeed hit the portal?

Bobby Burton and company were saying that there are 5 to 7 "silent commits."  Dare we guess at who they are?  Or, are we sworn to secrecy like Bobby & co. apparently are?

 

[TFloss32]

Per IT, DE Zina Umeozulu of Allen impressed the staff with his frame this weekend.

Sounds like he's a take.

Yes some one will have to go. To make room for Kibble, Cruz and a OT. Only Jones is a senior

How many silents does it take to make one actual commitment?

 If a commitment is silent how do you knowhe committed?

Is there silents or just away to stir up intrest?

It's a silent because the player committed to the staff in order to reserve his spot.

If anyone doesn't believe there are silent commitments out there, they aren't reading the massive tea leaves right in front of their face.
