2024 Recruiting Board/Thread

[TFloss32]

Per IT, DE Danny Okoye of Tulsa, OK has set an unofficial visit to Texas for the Wyoming game on September 16th after speaking with Sark earlier this afternoon.

Same game that WR Ryan Wingo is planning on attending.

They added he's already asked the staff if they're the home team for the Oklahoma game as well.

That post is not new, but I'm sure he's going to be trying to flip some guys or get uncommitted ones to join him. 

Mckinney is the next scheduled one, but wouldn't be surprised if 1 or 2 more commit before him.

Indeed. Is that an indictment on our present Edge, Jack & Buck?

I think it shows that Sark is not settling and is trying to stack all positions with top quality players.

Sark and staff do not settle, period. Herman would move on and we would end up with a good player earlier in the process, but often at the risk of giving up on difference makers. This showed in the OL particularly. 

Sark identifies, evaluates, targets, pursues and gets his top targets. It takes patience as fans, but damn does it feel good when the process works. He doesn't get them all, but look at our current and future roster. Can't argue with his recruiting tactics.

He and his staff are tireless.

Hook ‘em!

Simmons, Okoye, and Umeozulo (sp) would be a Sick DE class. Add McKinley  to what we have and it would have to be one of the top DL classes Texas has had in a very long time.

It’s going to happen.

Have we ever had 2 5 stars on the DL in 1 class?

I don't think so.

Hudson is a mystery. IMO, if Tech was all that and with Dad's ties to that school, this would seem like a no-brainer for him. Everyone and their dog knows he has Tech leading.

So why does he stay uncommitted?

I don't think he's totally sold on Tech. I think, before this is over, he gives Texas a call.

I think Hudson is trying his best to drum up drama.  Seems that he wants to drive up his NIL and create a situation where schools are really fighting it out for him.  Not only that but he wants to keep people guessing as to where he will eventually land.  Much like what Colin has done.

Hopefully a lot more fun going forward.

Not saying it's WR Ryan Wingo, but he was giving Hook 'Em signs on the livestream today after Simmons committed.

IT mentioned WR Micah Hudson was also on the livestream.

Wiltfong of 247 wrote this morning a source near the Texas program has him feeling good about five-stars OL Brandon Baker, DT Dominick McKinley and CB Kobe Black.

He likes Texas' positioning for five-star WR Ryan Wingo as well, but acknowledges that Missouri is making a strong push to keep him home.

Wingo needs to look at what the QB situation has looked like at Mizzou under Drinkwitz compared to what Sark has on campus/committed.
