Texas Recruiting Notes 2021

[Tex Pete 20,179]

Props to you for recognizing it.

We ain’t getting Landon Jackson. He is A&Ms version of Alfred Collins. Legacy who will enjoy the process but that’s it.

I'm not really convinced Juan is a TE. He's like Hullaby where you let him come in and figure it out.

Texas working Georgia hard again. Must be working with Watson again, staying close for his new gig.

Lmao... that cannot be real.  Even the key and peele names are not as ridiculous as “general booty”!

Yeah I found that when I was crusin and perusing for booty.  Not what I was expecting.

Freebirds is the most overrated place to eat. It’s like a redneck Chipotle in that you have to like sodium, two days of your caloric intake at one time and diarrhea. I guess if you are fat or poor it has an appeal but to me that place is like eating out of a toilet. 

Freebirds is a recipe for yobogoyas.

This mistake is extremely ironic.

Looks like 247 will do a rankings update next week.  Will be interesting to see who gets a big increase or drop.  I could see Bowman going way up, 247 has him at #28 in the state currently.

Wouldn't surprise me if JaTavion Sanders got bumped up to a five star. He's at a.9758 rn

What position is he recruited for? He seems one protein bar away from 235-240, which would be a huge WR (his 247 profile lists WR).

The only thing holding Sanders back being a composite 5* is his ESPN ranking of #123 nationally.  They've only had one ranking done back on the summer, and Gerry Hamilton said it'd be updated after the season.

[GRHorn 105]

i think this is the Brocks. I wonder how much input/influence DHawk has over them. He trained Karic as well

[irishtexan 11,445]

Not one service currently ranks him as a 5*. 247 has him at 40. Rivals has him at 41. So it’s a lot more than ESPN’s shitty ranking that’s holding him back. Although he could def end up there.

Ej jumped on Orangebloods and posted Quay was expected to be a commit again here soon.

EJ is at some 7-on-7/Pylon event today that Quay is at.  Tweeted a pic of Quay in a Texas shirt with his coffee emoji after it.

Not really. If he was ranked around 40 on all 3 sites, then he’d almost definitely be a composite 5*.

I could barely listen to the podcast with EJ but atleast he knew how to troll aggy.  I stopped listening to Roach.  I’d rather watch paint dry.  He seems like a great guy but he’s either gotta lose some weight or figure out what the hell is up with his heavy breathing.

Yea, 247 is the only one that sticks to the 32 rule right?

Yeah, but ESPN is much more stingy with five-stars than the other services. Guess that doesn't impact the composite though, only the ranking.

Yeah he has good relationship with actual high school coaches and seems to help get exposure for kids to sign FCS, DII and whatnot.  Guessing the hookem was in response to Allen getting an offer from Texas

Quay is going to be a monster in college.  Put that dude in the slot, X, Z ... whatever.  Dude is the 2nd most talented WR in the state after Demas.

[cdain3 3,454]

Billy Bowman is a no doubt 5*

[JOSEYWALES66 1,790]

Bowman reminds me a lot of Nate Vasher.

He is special.

Alright, don't take this as criticism of Bowman at all, but Justin Watkins I recall had as good or better return highlights when he committed.  I think Bowman is rated appropriately as it is.  With just a little more speed I would agree, surefire 5 star

Watkins was already starting to get dinged for transferring high schools so much. And then of course the criminality started happening.

I'm aware, but Watkins peaked at around a .97; and unless Bowman takes that extra step his senior year and at the AA game (he might) then I would expect him to also hang around the max .97 range

It will be a shame to watch those return skills go to waste as he’s directed to fair-catch everything.

fucking. Triggered. 
 

I expect the ST units to take the biggest step forward next season, and that takes into account that I expect the defense to be much improved. The roster depth finally has speed and we have hired several coaches to address ST.
 

I know — hope is a dangerous thing. 

[Thiefery 4,969]

Didn't they start doing that once our returns resulted in a positive 2 yards or a fumble?

Lol at the teams that kept kicking the ball to him. He looks talented enough to play anywhere but I assume we have him pegged for corner or nickel?

Lol. We didn't have net positive punt return yardage AS A TEAM until about halfway through the season.

Perroni seems pretty confident with aggy and LJ Johnson.  Maybe I missed it, but I don't remember seeing much between him and aggy before this last weekend.

The next recruit Perroni meets who he thinks won't sign with A&M will be the first.
