That's what I wondered, I just figured that I had missed a post from one of you guys in the know.

I haven’t watched his tape and his stats although good don’t jump off the page but his track stuff paints the picture he’s a + Athlete with good size. 3rd place at state track meet in LJ his freshman year and ran on Lancasters 4x1 and 4x2 teams that got 2nd and 3rd as a sophomore.

Coffey feels a lot like Alford last year - a bit of a weird "do we really want each other" courtship turning into a real class leader.

 

Xavion was all Texas for a very long time, pretty much after his brief courtship with LSU ended in the fall. Xa knew he wanted to go to a school that has a DB pedigree. He told reporters he loved A&M so people would stop asking about them. He's not the only prospect who's done / is doing that with them.

Is doing it? Does their name rhyme with Burner?

But is this the same one teased by Roach the other day? Hasn’t Jackson been to campus, and why all the secrecy for a non-committed recruit who has is in a public top 3? Doesn’t make sense to me.

Someone's already guessed the visitor. They aren't the same recruit.

No idea, about your questions

He also plans on running track....my nephew played with him at RC.

Arky is team to beat.

Any chance one of the DE's (Sanders, Thomas, Harris) possibly plays a LB spot??

Off the ball LB? No, and I don't really see the need for them to, especially with Hullaby already moved there and reportedly looking good 

If Orlando were still here, that would be a different story

Sweat would be playing linebacker. Hullaby would be at DT.

Why keep it under wraps? Weird for an uncommitted kid.

He asked for it to be kept under wraps until he made it to Austin.

Edit: As for a potential "why" - Arkansas, even with Morris canned, doesn't fucking like us. Patterson hates us too, and Malcolm Kelly seems to have a track record thus far of fucking Texas over when it comes to recruits. When schools find out about a recruit visiting another school, they try to shut down the visit before it happens if possible. Kids try to keep their visits hidden from staff that they feel will try to stop them until it's to late for them to try.

Proposed but risky way to deal with that:  tell them no I am going to visit anyway.
