Xavier Newman back on the market

[Daniel Seahorn]

Per his Twitter he has de-committed from Texas. Smart money is Colorado at this point with Oklahoma already filling their need at the position.

 

[SPORTSGUY00]

Yeah most likely he end up at Colorado

 

[RunRickyRun]

No biggie.

Well, maybe there's something to this that I'm not aware of . . . but . . . we just lost a recruit to Colorado?

They were high on his list before Texas offered and he has teammates committed here. Colorado has been making a push within the state this cycle.

Not surprising. If I didn't have undying love for the university I would too.

When you look at the OL beasts we have redshirting this year, I can understand his decision. The time for OLs getting early playing time is probably over after this season when you look at the youth we already have starting, plus Hudson and that crew redshirting. Good luck at Colorado.

Any ex Desoto coach is on CU staff to if I remember correctly.

The timing seems weird. He didn't leave after the losses, but after a win. Maybe he didn't want to pile on Texas and Charlie and waited until the media let up. Oh well, good luck to the young man.

Yes CU has a pipeline to Desoto from an ex coach. They always get 3-4 dudes from there every year

Didn't our old WR coach land in Boulder a few years back? Kennedy was his name?

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

Newman to Colorado as expected.

Bobby Kennedy and I believe he did.

I belive you called this one well in advance with a CB pick.

 

[MBHORNSFAN]

Herman probably didn't want him. h34r:

Yeah we saw this one coming for a while.

He didn't think he was Big12 good. ðŸ˜
