I'll be here all day to chat and answer your questions.  Leave them in the thread and we'll get to them.  Recruiting, team stuff, whatever you'd like.

 
Mike

Do you think we will get a commitment today or tomorrow, to squelch some of the supposed momentum that the aggies are are gaining?

Some Horns fans on twitter are going aggy on some of our recruits and it is not putting us in a good light.

I'll hang up and listen....rhanks

What is the latest you are hearing from your sources?
This weekend has been pretty quiet, and the more major storylines are on visits elsewhere.  I'll check in with them tonight to see how those went.  Not much coming out yet on the OV weekend in Austin

 
Mike when are you going to get into a twitter feud with an A&M player? 
Never, and if you followed that whole bit you saw I was very vocal in opposition.  We as reporters have a responsibility to not be cheerleaders for the programs we cover.  I am a lifelong Texas fan and I bleed orange just like anyone, but no recruit I cover would ever know it.  For the most part I like these kids and I want them to find the best opportunity for themselves.  I thought it was over the line for that to happen but obviously not out of character.

what are you hearing in regards to coaching additions?
Nothing yet, that may be addressed after signing day,

Is the momentum real or just twitter talk?
The momentum was very real last week, and while most of those guys are on other visits the early returns I'm hearing are that not much has changed.  Look at the way Charlie is treating the end of this cycle and you can see a lot of confidence.  

What's the latest on Mark jackson and Madubuike
Both were on campus at A&M this week.  I don't think Madubuike looks around but Mark Jackson still has a visit with Oklahoma and obviously stopped by Austin this week to see McCombs.  That decision will go all the way to signing day.

I'm not so sure.  Most of these recruitments look like they are headed to signing day.

 
Just heard from a source at Arkansas who confirmed Eric Cuffee was recruiting for Texas on his official to Arkansas.  While that bodes well for the Waco corner I find it disrespectful when any kid does it on any visit.

In Cuffee's defense the only reason he got an visit is because he was being used so arky could get B Jones to visit. I would be pissed and spiteful if i was being used.

Perhaps, but these people are hosting you and I think you should act accordingly.  Just a personal conviction of mine.

 
Whose starting at QB week one? My gut tells me locksley

I think our offense will surprise some people next season. Good O-Line, Powerful Backs , two real threats at receiver with Irvin smith running down the seams , whatcha think?

I thought I had read where Hudson was not coming- hope I'm wrong because for some reason I really like him.  How comfortable is the coaching staff with so many recruits waiting so llate on making a commitment?  Couldn't this all blowup in our face?

 
With all of these recruits that we have considering us, do you feel we could have a top 10 class on NSD?
