He looks like an Aaron Lewis clone. If he added 20 pounds in college he would have exactly the same measurebles to go along with the shotput/multi sport talent and fast shuttle time like Lewis did. 

Easy there, bizarro Katfid. They look nothing alike.

Roach and some Utah State mod CB'd Fillinger to Texas.

Pluckers in West Campus, UncleBuck. Free 5 Wings if Texas wins the game.

You could be right.

So has more than one decision been made, or did he leave out an apostrophe intending to mean "decision has been made"?  Poor grammar.  Do not want.

Apostrophes are ethereal and mercurial anymore.

Giles gonna' take one long nap if he gets 2 DL commits in a matter of days.  Someone be sure to have a plate of wings for that man when he wakes up.

If we get Collins, Broughton, Fillinger, plus Princely/late bloomer at DL with Dorbah at B-backer, then Giles should get to eat so many wings that every Surly poster in Austin has to install a chicken coop just to keep up with demand.

No BYU offer. Best clue I can offer.

Noticed he won state shot put with ~50' throw. That any good? Or is Utah T&F lacking?

If he can be anything close to Brian Robison I’d be happy.

A few clips of Fillinger at the Opening regionals: https://www.cbssports.com/video/player/college-football-recruiting/1525723715718/0/van-fillinger-corner-canyon-high-school-2019-the-opening-oakland

High upside athlete - let Van bulk up to 280 during his RS year and get snaps in yr 2

Knowing that we may miss out on the top RB prospects, what do y’all think about Kevontre Bradford from Lancaster? The tape I’ve seen looks good and Sconnie is after him.

It's certainly a product of trying to impress in a setting like the opening, but he needs to use that shuttle agility more than he is in those clips. He stands there so long trying to make a move that the ol are getting into their sets and he's dead in the water. Stud frame, tests out well, really looking forward to seeing his progression in the S&C program

He’s got a great frame, has a high motor and is super athletic as evidenced by his shuttle time and track scores. If technique is the one thing he is missing that is the one thing that can be taught.

I've seen two people brought up when talking about Van Fingerer so far:

 

Brian Robison and Breckyn Hager WHY ARE WE SO RAYCESS

 

 

He's at least part Poly so who's the racist now??? (Us. It's us.)

CBs keep flowing in for Fillinger, including from a bunch of Utah area reporters. I wonder if Broughton committing sped up Fillinger's timeline a bit. We had so few commits that there was little pressure for anyone to pull the trigger, but now a few dominoes are starting to fall.

They could have easily told he, Princely, and Logan-Redding that there's one spot left for the three of them

Under the new rules, he could get some snaps his first year and still not burn his redshirt.

Assuming Fillinger commits soon then I think we get the best of those 3.

Potential floor of Cedric Reed and ceiling of Tim Crowder. Is that better?

Going from zero defensive commits to Crawford, Dorbah, Broughton, and (potentially) Fillinger in a month is pretty fun.

I think this is what you're getting at: 

[HtownHorn 14487]

Adding Fillinger and Thompson would bump Texas up to 14th at 216.98.

So 17 spots since Tarp wrote that stupid article.
