247 had him as a 3*, but he was a composite 4*

247 had that right. He was looking at a total mechanics rebuild. Maybe he figures that out, but I think the move to RB was the best thing for everyone. Idk that Roschon could have maximized to the level he did anywhere else. 
 

Edit to add: Ian Boyd couldn’t stop pining for a move to lb. IB, we got one of those, that’s a David Gbenda.

That guy is getting his information from the same guy that has Texas running 3rd for Gipson.

To be fair, that guy isn’t even getting his information from the same place as the Steve Witfong who is about to flip his CB to Texas.

I had no idea Jason Taylor coached there. Living in South Beach being coached by a NFL HOFer isn't a bad sales pitch.  I assume Miami would find a way to line his pockets as well.

If the staff trusted a recruit enough, would it be fun optics to have them show to the aggy pool party and then commit to Texas the day or week after?

Why not same day? If you're gonna get savage may as well go all in.

While he's there

[ousux 5639]

Yes, with the apartment pool, recruits and whoever is the new pit master directly behind him.

and toss a payday candy bar in the pool at the same time for good measure.

Yes, it was Albert Hollis who happened to be on his OV the same weekend as DJ Williams.

If I am not mistaken, it was Hodges Mitchell would beat Hollis’s ass in the weight room on his OV.

Holy shit, I completely forgot the Grant Tisdale vs. Roschon Johnson debate.  At least one of the 995ers (EJ?) was really upset at that one, IIRC.

It was EJ. Tisdale was a classic DFW maxed-out camp + 7v7 superstar, so EJ was fanboying all over him.

[FreeHorn 1327]

man EJ thought Tisdale was the future and Texas coaches were idiots to not take him. 
 

EJ was also bad at his job.

Funny part is it was a debate over who would be a great QB.

No (reverse) Katfid, but I would have never connected that is the same guy from his 247 picture

One commitment that could pop at any time is Omeozulu. It’s a matter of Texas clarifying some things for the family. When that happens, a commitment will follow or suddenly he’ll be trending towards not Texas. 

If Zina didnt have a brother already on campus would Texas really be recruiting him?

[BurntOrange&White 41877]

Holy shit Jeff How is bitter that another show before his show had Gerry Hamilton on for recruiting talk and not him or 247 lol

Yes. He’s not some spare. He’s being heavily recruited by OU and the Aggies. There was concerns about his size but he has apparently bulked up

[SydneyCarton 49505]

What Jeff is really bitter about is that he isn't working at On3, I'd wager. Who knows, that might change over time.

I can’t wait for smaller schools to start trying to call for a “cap number” on NIL spending. We will shoot that down quickly but I’m surprised this hasn’t already been brought to the table. Saw the quote “busey will be an overspend” and wondered why are kids still 4 and 5 stars they should just be 1 million, 1.2, 100k or so players.

Committing soon.  Seemed Texas bound at one point.

We won't shoot it down, the courts will.

Jeff Howe is the Mike Roach of non-recruiting football stuff.  

Minus Roach's - relatively - insightful prose, sparking personality, wit, and humor.

There are concerns about his frame being able to add good weight. There are also concerns about mediocre junior tape. His upside outweighs those concerns, hence the regional brands putting in the effort for him.

He's at TCU now - his fourth! school. But if he didn't play at SLU, there's no hope at TCU.
