Gerry just made a very good point about these guys that are coming in for visits as committed prospects or leans to other schools. Texas isn't bringing in these guys unless they are in communication with the staff.

I have no idea what this means

It means that Texas coaches aren't shooting in the dark. They've been actively recruiting these players for a while. These recruits are visiting because the coaches believe they are serious about playing for Texas and not to see a matchup of ranked teams.

Thanks. Nice summary.

Roach posted a behind-the-scenes thing about Vasek. Texas was way behind at the beginning of this year and Vasek was frustrated they weren't pushing as hard as other schools. Sounds like OU and other schools were negative recruiting telling Vasek he would be dropping into coverage a lot if he played in our scheme. PK then had a 1 v 1 sit down with him in the spring and talked about how he would be used and that allowed us to get back in the thick of things. He ultimately chose OU but then showed up for the Bama game, Iowa State and then also snuck in for a practice during our bye week at the end of October which sealed the deal.
