Gerry on Bobbys youtube show today said there was a player committed elsewhere from the Houston area who wants to come in for a visit for the Bama game.  But Gerry said the staff probably will say no because they don't think it genuine interest or something..  Is that Pettaway?  I know it's not Hicks.. and I don't think the staff is on Sanford either... Shelby?

If it's Shelby I think they say yes.

I read that as Rueben Owens

Why the fuck would we want Rueben Owens and his dad? Baxter is a better player and we already have a RB2. That’s uninteresting news. DE, LB, DL, CB, and WR. I don’t see us getting a blue chip OT but I guess it is possible.

It wasn't mentioned as a guy we actually want. If it were, then Shelby would be the only one to make sense. .

Pettaway doesn't strike me as the "going to big-time, crowded games for the hell of it" type of guy.

debatable.  just because he's a clown doesn't mean he isn't an amazing player.

Wiltfong has an article on Hicks on the aggy board I think about fall visits.  Wasn't on the Texas 247 board, so I'm guessing we aren't getting a visit?

Really just depends on if he has to stop and pick up Lagaryonn Carson first. 
 

Skimming our offer list, Terrence Green fits all the parameters.

Guy on the video says this squat is 575.  Presumably his deadlift is over 600.

From the Top 50 freaks article, the QB that Tennessee purchased has an 81 inch wingspan.  Is that a good thing?

If one had no other choice but to squat on turf, would being barefoot ameliorate injury risk?

His deadlift is 515, but he's not a powerlifter.  He only did the meet at his own highschool.  He qualified for regionals but didn't lift.

Watching Toviano play Lake Travis. Good sized kid, lean. They’ve been throwing away from his side. He’s been lined up in man coverage on an island so far. Caused a fumble at the goal line but Travis got it.

The other guys in the secondary look pretty good too. Don’t know if any of them are ‘23’s or not
