Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out

Recommended Posts

I learned yesterday that former first round pick/NBA player Tony Snell has Autism.
He's looking to get his tenth year in the league this upcoming season.

For most it's not really a disability unless you consider social awkwardness a disability. For some it can actually be a strength..as long as they choose the right career path.

Decision Day: Kaliq Lockett

Sachse (Texas) High wide receiver Kaliq Lockett will announce his commitment at noon eastern today. 

Lockett, 6-2 and 170 pounds, will announce out of a final group of Texas, Alabama, Texas A&M, LSU and Florida State.

The DFW area playmaker and OnTexasFootball 4-star++ prospect has been trending to Texas since July 5. There have been positive conversations with Steve Sarkisian and Chris Jackson for about a month. The Texas offensive scheme, quarterback room/recruiting and the athletic/academic combo. 

Alabama has also been looked upon favorably by Lockett and his circle due to Kalen Deboer's offensive scheme and quarterback evaluation/development. 

Texas A&M has been all in on this recruitment as well.

Should Lockett pick Texas today, he would not represent a national recruiting win of a prospect with a long line of Texans in the family tree. His father is from Southern California, and his mom grew up in Louisiana and Mississippi. 

Lockett official visits

LSU - May 31-June 2

Texas A&M - June 7-9

Florida State - June 14-16

Alabama - 17-19

Texas - June 21-23

Lockett by the numbers

Wingspan: 79 inches

Hand: 11 inches

2021 (freshman): 13 receptions for 260 yards and 3 TD's

2022 (sophomore): 28 receptions for 482 yards and 5 TD's

2023 (junior): 59 receptions for 1,299 yards and 13 TD's

Hope we're really able to Lockett a 5 star receiver down today. Most of the 995ers have been projecting this one to us. Lockett down Sark!

 

He has very good ball skills and good coordination but he doesn't get much separation - ie. decent speed but not elite. He is ranked as the 2nd best WR in the country but I think Wingo has more elite traits.

I'll bet Sark could find some way to use a smaller but faster LJH.

Not a great physical comparison at all, but Lockett goes and gets the ball.

I'll be surprised if it isn't Texas, but traditional hat theory would say the choice is aggy.

Definitely looks like the only school that actually gave him a hat is aggy, the rest look like Walmart specials.  That’s probably just throw people off the scent…

That’s because the one we gave him is under the table to surprise put on after he throws the aggy one away.

Ffantabulous get!

Next, we better Ffucking Ffinish and Ffinalize on Ffrench!  Lulz.

Now recruiting services all over the country are busy downgrading Lockett from being a 5-star on their sites and retconning/deleting their articles where's he's a 5-star only because he's going to TEXAS. FFS
