Recruiting Updates

Any thoughts on Daniel Gresham decommitting?

 

[utisdabomb12]

Gresham decommitted in May. Strong must not want him, because he hasn't really been recruiting him. Only reason Strong showed a little interest in him was because of Knox. Since that ship sailed, don't think Strong has any interest in Gresham (already enough RB's in this class).

So he decommits from UT and commits to Lewisville and CS doesn't want him now?

Things change from program to program. If Texas has a plethora of backs, why waste another scholly? I actually think he's a little undervalued as a player, but Strong obviously has some justification for not wanting him.

Well for one having the top 4* fullback in the country and also not having JG for part of next season

What you want at Louisville and what you want at Texas is different. Strong likes Delatorre at FB for what he wants to do. Gresham overplayed his hand and with the coaching move, he's having to scramble.

Nice post, Juan. Those are such good points about Strong having to go door to door and do in an hour what others have had months and years to do.

Chip's best written work in awhile?

And I am all in favor of Daje hopping on the train. He could be so great on the field, but it still feels like along shot. I keep having flashbacks to Romance's wasted promise.

Looks like its now down to SMU or UTSA for RB Daniel Gresham

Seems like weird trip for this guy.

He is a 4*.

2015 recruit Ronald Jones is attending junior day. Big news, IMO the best running back in the state for 2015.

 

[Topstarr]

Need to have a coach seeing Ronald Jones every week that the NCAA allows.

I wonder if Romance knows Ramonce Taylor? I love when that one gets mixed up.

Is Gresham a 4*? I thought he was a 3?? If he's a 4 then something has got to be wrong with him. No way a 4* player from Texas should be begging for work. I don't get it.

LOL. I must have done that 100 times.

ESPN 4* -- others have him at 3.

 

[Brasky]

It's so strange. Because if at worst he's a borderline 4* you'd think he'd at least be getting a look from Tech or any number of schools that mostly pull 3's.

I've read so many ranging things on him it seems. Some people act like he's extremely good and others seem to think he's not quite built for the college game. Just an odd case, I guess.

Arrion Springs just confirmed to 247 that he will be coming to UT on an unofficial visit this weekend. Let's hope this one turns out like Bryce Cottrell did.

 

[Bandit]

This is a really big deal!

 

[texasdalton]

If arrion springs comes and commits then forget having CS doing the recruiting, just leave it to heard and lojoe
