It’s weird because his target audience is Aggy. It can’t be other recruits, cause he would just communicate with them directly.

Well, there are at least two of us. It’s a top 30 book I’ve ever read, I think. Always heard the show was great. Ain’t nobody got time for 10 hours of binging cattle drives though. 

I finally binged it about two months ago, but your point is correct.  The series was fucking terrific, though.

Gotta pander to your audience to increase that NIL value. He’s gonna have every insurance salesman in the northern Houston exurbs lining up to sponsor him.

Gerry said the two silents are in the ‘22 class

So what's our alleged silent count now? We supposedly had two or three before June (Banks and Bryce, who may not be considered silents anymore). After last weekend there were tweets indicating 3 silents (not sure if that meant 3 more, or 3 total, and K Robinson may have been one). Now two new ones.

So excluding Banks and Bryce, I'm thinking 4? My best guess would be D Brown, Hutson, Cheeks, and idk (Patton?)

Two silents, both '22s. Jones is a public commit.

Oh ok I thought the Gerry thing meant two new silents from the weekend in addition to Jones public. Nvm

Spoiler

— I was ready to put in a 247Sports Crystal Ball projection for Texas on Las Vegas (NV.) Liberty ATH Anthony Jones based off what I heard and what I saw while he interacted with others on the visit today, but Jones had other plans. In reality, this had been in the works for a bit. While Jones continued to tell others that he wanted to play tight end, I was told Jones actually committed a few weeks ago. What a sell job by PK on this one who convinced Jones to play on defense for the second time. Jones was previously committed to Washington under Pete Kwiatkowski and now he's committed to him once again.

— As for his skillset, I think he's the type of athlete you want chasing quarterbacks for a living. His athleticism is at much more of a premium on the defensive side of the ball, and Kwiatkowski has proven on a few occasions that he can develop that type of body. In watching his film, I love his ability to take on blocks at the point of attack or use his athleticism to evade them completely. These are the types of long, athletic bodies Texas lacks on the edge, and they have a guy with a history of development in place to cultivate it.

— I'm not sure the fun is done from this weekend as it sounds like two other guys might have given commitments. Of course, we are chasing those stories down and we won't ever spoil a moment, but I'm not sure anything will come immediately. While those players might wait a bit to give an announcement, it's safe to say the buzz from this weekend so far is on track. Speaking of the buzz, I had somewhat forgotten how much the energy of a big visit weekend radiates in Austin. It was palpable today as parents and coaches who were on the trip raved about the entire experience. I'll go into more detail on that in The Stampede.

—I was told things are going well with Sebastian Cheeks. The four-star linebacker was said to be enjoying the vibes of Austin. Cheeks is scheduled for an official trip to Notre Dame next week and will take an unofficial to Michigan, but it sounds like Texas is impressing him so far.

Maybe they have mini fish camps on aggy visits? He will make a good texaggy poster when his playing days are done, might even do a little fan fiction "couldnt find the stadium but every aggy in collie station helped me" write ups after games.

From the way that reads, it sounds like the 2 silents are not Cheeks. But reading into Roach's musings is a fools game.

Clemson offered the Kicker from Florida that we've offered (Gunn) and immediately got a crystal ball pick to them from the Clemson mod.

Agree with all that. It also sounds like they are two fresh silents, not counting any previous ones that are still unannounced 

[Machinator 32,099]

 

[Lonestar88 4,698]

Wasn’t Jacoby Mathews a silent at one point? If a silent doesn’t announce within a couple of weeks, not sure it’s even worth mentioning anymore.

[BurntOrange&White 39,934]

Per Gerry

 

One or the silent majority from the weekend is waiting until an important date in his life to announce. 
 

so a birthday, parent birthday, and etc.

Seems like Hutson and Sexton are the most likely. Cheeks hasn’t visited as much and didn’t grow up a Longhorn fan.

Sexton would be a swing from OU lean to UT in the span of a month.

He and Iuli (and his bro Agbo) all seemed to be frustrated by the OUs desire to slow everything down and push visits to the season. I think Alabama moving in just as OU was attempting to slow things down was probably a big factor. I also think he is one of the players rumored to have concerns about Bennie Wylie. I read that Lehman and Ikard piled on Bennie pretty hard on the podcast/radio. Not sure why it’s taken so long for them to figure out he’s a problem.

Oh. So he’s like a nephew of yours or an estranged son you had with some toothlessly alluring okie once upon a time. Noted. Well reconnect and let’s get your boy on board! We’re waiting.

Hmmm...strategy to delay visits until the season may be to try to blunt the momentum from new coach-UT by having visits after another Sooner victory in Dallas. I wonder if their trying to push visits until a possible top 10 match up on Nov 20 in Norman vs Iowa St. Just a hypothesis.

That's a dangerous game with early signing being on 12/15.

We're going to end up with about 15 of these lb/de 6'2" - 6'5" 210-245 types on this roster, aren't we? Not complaining because I think this staff is smart enough to mix and match and find good fits for everybody, but just making an observation.

I think it was for the Nebraska game on the 18th.

From my end, this is all conjecture.

The Nebraska game, because of the 11AM start, is now less attractive. Only local/regional players will be able to make it comfortably for the game. Kids coming from the East or West Coast players who play on Friday night will have to take a red eye to Dallas and catch a connector to OKC in the morning. What a whip.

[Elmer_Fudd 22,306]

I may be wrong, but I don't see the staff taking Gatson at this point with Jones coming in next week and possibly Miller still visiting.  

Looks like he tweeted that from his USC OV, so maybe they pushed for a commitment.
