I think they have three or four guys queued up to commit whenever Jimbo feels like it's optimal and pushes

He might want to hold Omeire in reserve as one of the last remaining MEGA VICTORY OVER THE SIPS moves he can pull out of his quiver.

Yes. You missed:

"I've watched his offense, and saw him in the playoffs. He got shut down. I'm not sure he's a big SEC back that can carry his team. Might be better off in the Big 12."

Texas wants Omeire in this class. He's another Collin Johnson type and they use them well, obviously. It will suck if he goes to ATM as there is no other facsimile for that role and they don't appear every year, especially in our backyard.

Oh I'm not discounting that we want him - I used him there since he's the only potential aggy silent (presuming they exist) that is emphatically not bread and has a real offer from us.

Hornsby, Achane, Kimber, Sylvester, and Omeire appear to be heavy aggie leans if not locks to me. I'm not sure which of those we actually would want right now aside from Omeire though. 

Hopefully they take Branard Wright and the short Richmond Foster DT.

He's a long shot and apparently much more elusive, but I haven't watched his film. You tell me on that one. Texas has been on the guy early and thinks they can get him on campus and such, but who really wants to head to Austin from the west coast and AZ seems like a crapshoot until the summer. If their plan for this cycle is Omeire, Cooper, and Wilson, we need to order an industrial-sized shipment of Tums for the board.

Hopefully, Omeire can see his ceiling in a Fisher offense is 40 to 45 catches and 700 yards. Fisher hasn't had a WR do anything significant, save for two years back at FSU with Winston, in his entire career.

Yep.  And the aggy wailing and gnashing of teeth is just getting started on the recruiting front.

[sushihorn 3,233]

@Machinator posted an article on the non-Texas recruiting thread.

Quote

 

But while the star-based recruiting system is widely used among coaches, reporters and fans alike, it isn’t foolproof. All you have to do is look at the Seminoles’ 2015 recruiting class.

The class was ranked third nationally and appeared to be loaded; it had four five-star players, 10 four-star players and six three-star players. It had four national top-20 prospects, five top-50 prospects, eight top-100 recruits and 12 top-300 guys. For the most part, though, the players failed to live up to the hype.

Five-star safety Derwin James was the class’ highest-ranked player; he was a college star and appears on his way to NFL stardom after making the Pro Bowl as a rookie this season after being drafted in the first round by San Diego. But he will be the lone first-rounder out of the class. Indeed, its possible that just three players are drafted at all from the class.

 

It's very relevant here because Jimbo is now at aggy and a big part of his recruiting pitch is "Play for me because I've shown the ability to take elite recruits and get (15% of) them into the NFL."

Isn't Sylvester always talking about how he wishes he would hear more from the Texas staff? Or have we already burned that bridge with not offering him and leaving it up to giles?

The staff has made it quite clear we have the big four (Broughton, Collins, Dorbah, Umanmielen) and then everyone else when it comes to the DL.

For shits and giggles. Playing around with Class Calculator. I gave them every commit they lean for right now and added a random highly rated OT from east coast.  They would need to lose 14 non seniors to get to 21 commits.

Stupid sip. Hornsby is going to be a high five star. He's a better recruiter than Mack Brown and a better game day coach than Bob Stoops better passer than Reggie McNeal and a better runner than VY. Just ask Toilet Smurf.

Will be interesting to see who Jimbo hires as his next OL coach. If he wanted to cut bait with some of the bread they have in their O-line class, this makes it easier to do so.

What kind of long game do you think that quick-talking alcoholic midget is playing? He pulled off a stunt in which he got an underwhelming assistant a promotion to the NFL in order to have his new guy run his buttplug interior OL recruits off? Fucking Mensa couldn't go that deep on a process.

This is the second time Zach Taylor has thrown Jim Turner a lifeline. He hired Turner as RB coach when he was the Cincy OC

Just like aggy RB and Qb, when a coach leaves they’ll always be replaced with someone infinitely better. 

[Machinator 32,099]

I think it's quite possible they upgrade from a recruiting standpoint, but I'm hoping the "recruit 5 guards" strategy is a Jimbo thing that persists regardless of the OL coach.

That was never true (him turning the job down). Doesn't mean he accepted it but he never turned it down. Just mulled it over for a while. Thing about Jimmy T is this: He's moved around a lot over the past decade or so. I may be leaving some out, but in the last ten years he's been at BC, A&M, Tech (for a very brief off-season stint), the NFL (Dolphins), Cincinnati (for a very brief off-season stretch), A&M and now it would appear the NFL (Cincy). What went largely unreported is that even last year, he interviewed with Notre Dame, the Raiders and UCLA but loved A&M too much to leave. It's tough to imagine him turning down the chance to coach for a member of his extended family - and someone he's worked with for several years in college and the pros - in the league and I don't think anyone could really blame him. This has been buzzing in NFL circles for a while because a couple of pro OL guys have inquired about the job recently so you can rest assured Coach Fisher has a plan and - mark this down - if he needs to find a replacement he'll have one in very short order much like we saw with the tight end hire. I also think it's a chance for the Ags to bring in a stud recruiter (though he'll have to match Turner's Xs and Os acumen, which won't be easy) with the 2020 and 2021 o-line classes in Texas being absolutely loaded. It would be a loss but also an opportunity to get better.
