Some shocking notes from Roach including "Texas is recruiting a DL as a DL" and no I am not making that up

Spoiler

— Javien Toviano said the Texas visit was strong. He enjoyed seeing the coaches again and the new facilities. Toviano is considering his official visits and he said there’s a good chance Texas gets one.

— Texas made a big impact on Frisco Wakeland offensive lineman Connor Stroh. Both Stroh and his family couldn’t stop raving about the experience and the overall visit. Texas will be a strong player here.

— Naaman Forest defensive lineman Markis Deal said that the Longhorns are primarily recruiting him on the defensive side of the ball. Deal said that there was a time in his recruitment where Texas dropped off, but they’ve re-established position in the recruitment after the visit.

— Texas seems to be the early leader for Cy-Ranch DL Ashton Porter, and he doesn’t hide that very much. He has a few visits coming up but I think this recruitment could end in spring or summer.

— Texas made a big impression on new 2024 offer Frederick Dubose. The Schertz Clemens wide receiver has offers from Texas Tech and UTSA. Texas is positioned well.

— Abernathy athlete Anthony White said that Texas impressed him, specifically the meeting with Blake Gideon. Texas is recruiting him at safety and should be in for the long haul.

— Lovejoy WR Kyle Parker was excited to get the offer. He’s not sure when his recruitment will narrow down, but he said that Texas will be a big factor.

— Jaden Greathouse was all smiles when he emerged from the building. The Westlake wide receiver said that he had a great connection with Brennan Marion and an impactful meeting with Sark. Greathouse is planning a bunch of spring visits.

— Arlington Lamar wide offensive lineman Isaiah Robinson said that Texas continues to make a strong impression on him. Kyle Flood is driving that relationship and showing how much he’s wanted.

—  New Texas offer and Austin Vandergrift offensive lineman Ian Reed said the offer was special and he was excited to receiver it from his hometown. The big tackle prospect is taking things slow at the moment.

— Lafayette Kaiuway is a huge priority for Texas, and he had a great conversation with the staff. They want to use him like Jahleel Billingsley and Jeff Banks is doing a good job with the relationship.

— New offer Braylan Shelby from Friendswood thought he was leaving campus without an offer, but Pete Kwiatkowski offered right before he left. Texas will for sure get an official, and the Longhorns are strong in the recruitment along with Tennessee and Baylor.

— Hebron EDGE Carson Dean raved about the relationship he has with Jeff Choate. Dean said coming back for a second time gave him a better feel for the program. Texas feels he can play multiple positions.

— Harker Heights OL Jaydon Chatman said the experience was one like no other. He said he had good conversations with Steve Sarkisian and Kyle Flood and enjoyed trying on the uniform. Texas has a special place in his heart because they were his first offer.

— 2024 Duncanville EDGE Colin Simmons said he liked the love the coaches showed to him. He spoke mainly with Chris Gilbert and Jeff Banks but also talked to all of the coaches on staff. He feels wanted at Texas and said he will be back.

— 2024 Duncanville safety Kadavion Dotson was offered today. Dotson said he built a lot of relationships and loved the atmosphere. He connected with Blake Gideon, Chris Gilbert and Jeff Banks.

— 2023 Baton Rouge (LA.) Woodlawn cornerback Jordan Matthews said he feels he’s a fit at Texas because of his length and ability. Terry Joseph and Steve Sarkisian both met with him today and made him feel valued.

— 2024 Parish Episcopal DL Caleb Mitchell said the food was the highlight on the visit. He’s being recruited at multiple spots on the defensive line. He spent time with Chris Gilbert and Bo Davis.

— 2023 Westlake EDGE Colton Vasek was offered today. He’s grown up attending games as his father played for the Longhorns and he was honored to get the offer. Texas sees him as an edge rusher and he wants to take his visits this summer.

— 2023 Flower Mound Marcus wide receiver Ashton Cozart said the visit was special. He loved meeting Brennan Marion and felt the energy from him immediately. Cozart got one-on-one time with Steve Sarkisian and he wants to narrow his list soon.

— 2023 Tallahassee (Fl) John Paul II Catholic defensive back Makari Vickers made the trip from Florida. He met with most of the coaching staff and said the visit opened his eyes. He loved seeing the facilities overall and called Tashard Choice “your favorite uncle.”

— 2024 Waco Connally defensive back Kobe Black was offered today. He said he felt a family environment at Texas and spoke with Terry Joseph. He has a few visits coming up including Oklahoma and Baylor.

Gerry Hamilton put in a pick for David Hicks to OU.  One for Vasek to Texas.

Yeah. Started out with "childhood Texas fan," then was an aggy lean, then transferred from Katy Morton Ranch to Allen and now he's an OU lean.

Lord knows what OU's defense will look like in 2022. Too early for hand wringing for 2023 when OU's turning over a coaching staff and roster and will be changing NIL.

That’s great….. but can he punt?

The real issue is that in the early 90s Brian Vasek struggled to put on weight as a DE,  so it is probably impossible for Colton to add weight. It’s not like S&C has progressed since 1994.

He's had that up for a while I think. But yeah I think the signs are becoming clear on what will drive this recruitment.

Fwiw it looks like multiple Desoto guys were at A&M this weekend so that may be part of why he went.

If you're the Mannings how do you convince yourself Sark is the guy here at Texas? How do you even assess him without more results from next season? 

Here's a hypothetical- would you guarantee Sark's job for as long as Manning is here if it meant landing the QB and getting a top 5 class around him?

I would do it but that’s because I don’t see anyone else that’s an obvious improvement that’s possibly available or underemployed.  
 

Then again, I was convinced Tom Herman was going to be great here so what the fuck do I know.  
 

I do wonder about the pitch Texas is making if they are expecting a fall decision.  I would be pretty clear with him that he’s going to scare off any other top QB commits whether it’s done now or closer to December.  In other words, commit now and if he’s uncertain come October I’m quite sure Georgia, Bama, or Clemson will make a  spot available in a one man QB class.

No one would ever lie to a recruit would they?

On the hypothetical, absofuckinglutely. Because if Sark sucks and it falls apart then Manning would transfer anyway so who gives a shit? Tell them Sark is here for 5 years and you can still fire him if he doesn't turn it around.

Hell yeah.  It may be possible to accumulate so much talent that Sark can't fuck it up.  I wrap myself in this prayerful premise like a flannel blanket every night.
