The Ohio State DT is someone they took for granted as being a player for them next year. He doesn’t have great numbers, but they were deep there. I’ll be happy if Texas lands him.

Some German kid isn’t starting over Justus Terry and Alex January. He’ll be a rotational guy at Texas too. He’d definitely get more snaps here though.

You guys are hyping Justus Terry in ways that aren’t doing him any favors. I don’t get it. He’s not even close to 300 pounds and will be undersized in year one. He’s probably going to be awesome, but expecting true freshman DTs to win the day is not a good recipe for success.

Ed Oliver dominated OU as a freshman at 275lbs. If you got it, you got it.

Just to be clear, the best example you have is a guy who played as a freshman like eight years ago, had basically the second best game of how career by tackles and sacks in his first college game and is on his second NFL contract. 

That's not great odds.

Texas hosted Ohio State defensive lineman Hero Kanu for an official visit this weekend.

Kanu is expected to visit Florida later today.

Given the late entry of Kanu to the portal, he has a narrow timeline remaining to make a decision. The last day to enroll in classes for the spring semester at Texas is Wednesday of this week, although there can be some exceptions.

**

Some have mentioned the possibility of Texas recruiting Notre Dame starting center Pat Coogan out of the portal.

But that does not appear to be happening, at least not at this juncture. Coogan has been talking to Michigan, Illinois and South Carolina among others.

With a busy week ahead, I asked Kanu why he could see himself hypothetically picking Texas in the end.

"I mean, shit, I can play football," he said. "That's it. That's why I can see myself there. It's the same thing everywhere. I'm trying to play. I'm trying to make an impact."

 

I MEAN, SHIT, FULL ARTICLE BELOW.  THAT'S IT.

Seems like this guy has potential, but gives off a very mercenary type vibe.  If he doesn't get as much playing time as he expects, I could see him portaling after a year. 

Who knows, maybe he's worth a shot.

Given our depth chart, if he doesn't flat out suck he'd be getting plenty of playing time, much like Lole or Norton.

He might be a mercenary, but saying he wants to transfer for playing time after sitting and developing for two years is pretty reasonable. I don’t see how that gives off mercenary vibes at all.

A 6'5", 305-pound, standout SOCCER player?

What position did he even play? I'm gonna guess goalie... how do you even kick a ball around a guy that size?

Expand  

By kicking it around him.

The guy in the gif isn't David Beckham. And I was referring to the ability of soccer places to curve their shots.

Last DL I remember that was also interested in/played soccer is Suh from Nebraska and he was pretty good.
