I will shit a golden SLXpress, use it to bludgeon closetojumping to death, and then set SydneyCarton on fire if Hornsby signs with Texas.


Look, it’s the Battle of the Four Socks.

Dude has a crew involved with his recruitment, including helicopter momma. Those types don't usually wind up at Texas. They'll keep after him, no doubt. I don't like the odds, nonetheless.

Unfortunately, that's kind of what I figured. Thanks for the response!

Sylvester is Roney Elam's cousin and has spent a lot of time on the Aggie campus. He also has some of the same friends that the other Newton kids had/have (Brown specifically). The staff isn't going to offer until the 2nd hurdle is cleared.

He's a childhood longhorn fan, fwiw, but that doesn't always matter that much in recruiting it seems

Can you say how you know this? I'm really not doubting you or accusing you of anything per se. The demands that some top-tier kids make seem to get more and more ridiculous all the time, but this one just seems so outrageous.

I guess what I mean is that I want you to be wrong - not just for Texas' sake, but for Hornsby's as well - but I'm very strongly concerned and suspicious that you are correct.

Edit: On second thought, even though I'm still pretty curious, it's actually not that unprecedented at all. Absurd and way over-the-top, sure. But not anywhere close to unprecedented.

Someone with very close ties to his former school. Kid doesn’t even live with mom.

This would be much easier to pull off, but now if you hire someone associated with a prospect, you'll have to hire him as one of your test assistants, which ain't happening

What are the chances that Tom holds on to Card and gets Hornsby?

 

Expand  

My take, Hornsby has a lot of aggy around him. AND aggy has a SHIT QB room. He could go and be “the man” as opposed to Texas QB room. Having Card comin and RoJo already at UT there by then as well.

Herbert Gums's hudl is set to private, but I saw it a while back when he was still open.  He looks pretty impressive.  Plays DL/RB and is physical.  In the Mike Williams/Roach mold.  Also has a freshman bro on Varsity who's almost as big as he is already.  Jermichael Finley's hometown.

I wouldn't worry about it. Card is a stud. I'd take him on and off the field over Hornsby.

Expand  

I don't know enough about this to agree or disagree with this - I'm not a scout and all I can do it watch HUDL - but I will say that Card's potential looks like it's absolutely absurd. Much as I'd love to have Hornsby, Card looks to be an absolutely incredible take.

I've heard a few people quibble over his throwing motion, but honestly, I can't tell anything one way or the other. Besides, Vince had the goofiest throwing motion in history, and he ended up able to complete a ridiculous percentage of his passes, so I take all that talk with a grain of salt.

I don't know if he talks to him any, but Chad Lindberg follows and retweets stuff from a Bears mod named James Blanchard and this guy put in a Texas pick for him about a week ago.

Expand  

James Blanchard is fucking jkb 

Didn’t know he ended up at 247 after his failed attempt at being a street agent. And Baylor even after Travon got gone for beating up a woman? Good job 247.

He was trying to peddle the Newton group as a package deal awhile back

Wiltfong just crystal balled James Sylvester, Chris Thompson, Troy Omerie, and Dwight McGlothern to aggy.

Expand  

Sylvester is understandable (great non-offer there, Giles), Omeire is fine, and McGlothern seems like a character fit. Thompson would be a huge kick to the nuts.

He also put in 2 other 2020 picks to aggy.  Some low 3* WR from college station and an unranked DL.

Mcglothern is going to Aggy. Ro is his “unc” and like I said before he isn’t getting that adidas money for them to NOT visit and/or commit. He’s also become  a conduit for a couple of those “assistant coaches” in the DFW area. All the while making sure folks know he isn’t affiliated with Willie and his FAST group. The irony isn’t lost on me.

 

thompson would be ssssskkkeettttttttch.
