There is a cap on official visits? What is the cap?

I think that they are talking about a cap for spring official visits. IDK what that is either. 

[Machinator 32099]

I think 56, but don't quote me on it.

[BigBenBamboozle 1957]

I don’t remember this board being so prescient of # of spring OVs in years past. A symptom of the early signing period?

Yeah, it's a transition year and the NCAA made things clear as mud, as usual.

I mean, spring OVs during junior year weren't really a thing in years past

It's 56 for the whole year. 

I want to say the early OV cap is in the 20s. I've seen 26 or 28 somewhere. 

Where's the spreadsheet guy when you need him?

TFB says that Trey Sanders is still on campus. We have a very good shot at getting an official visit, and Jordan Whittington is doing a great job recruiting him to Texas.

Jermaine Johnson is visiting next weekend. He's a stud.

I assume it's unofficial? Good sign if it is.

Helps when you have guys like Whittington come to campus to recruit for free

Better hair Sanders or Whittington?

IT and 247. TFB remains silent after starting this whole thing.

We initially broke that they'll be coming, but wanted to wait until they made it in to name names. Just an FYI

Whittington is jacked. Hard to believe he's not yet even a Senior in high school.

That bright orange on the jerseys doe; looks like fucking milquetoast trash. We need a Trumpian burnt orange EO by CDC. Get off my lawn, less-than-burnt orange. We should exclaim TEXAS, not equivocate. I wish this had been discussed previously...

Anybody think if Shepherd visits this weekend he'll commit?

I will point out again that the way it looks on your monitor or your mobile phone is not the way it looks in real life.

It's from Hamm. $20 says Shepherd told Hamm he'd visit Aggy so he'd stop calling him.

Pretty stoked for a bonafide monster recruiting week, with Caldwell coming Tuesday and then the pool party (+ Davis and Cine) on the weekend. Hope Cine hasn't been too swept away by his PSU (gross) visit - the weather's been really nice up here.

Should have brought in Washington instead.

Cine's visiting his top 3 back-to-back-to-back and wants to make an early decision. He's a priority target, we didn't have much of a choice if we wanted to stay in it.

If the Cines are interested in Texas, they can spring for two tanks of gas.

Cliffs? I can't stand the sound of EJ's voice. 

Listen to OB podcast. E.J. is a dream compared to Ketch and mumble mouth. 

[Bruh Man 3160]

That's a sick edit for Cine. 

I mentioned it in the summer thread but I think the media dept at UT has been coasting the last few months. I know they lost some talent that Herman initially brought in, but I haven't been impressed with any edit since the Cook/Lebron edit. The videos/pics from workouts have been few and far between.

Maybe Herman and staff have a different read on the recruitment. I believe that Cine has visited once (maybe twice) on his own dime and maybe honoring Cine's family's request for an OV at this time will go a long way for getting him to commit to Texas.

Next upgrade should be the ability to change the colors.  Patterns and logos would be awesome.

I’m surprised it isn’t already like that. It’s not like buying RGB LEDs is so much more expensive than white ones.

[Machinator 32099]

I'm trying not to get too excited about Sanders, but if he OVs and we win 9+, game on.

I'm curious how Umstead factors into this, as well.

[Bodacious Bevo 3597]

Listened to the OB podcast recently. He rated WRs as the worst position group on the offense. He spent 15 minutes arguing with everybody else as to why they were worse than the OL.

Umstead Sanders walked on at Florida right?

@Fud can the guy play at all? Texas needs some LBs.

He committed to walking on there, he's not there yet

[Funk Doctor Spock 12465]

Isn't Sanders the kid that aggy said was going to walk-on there?

If he's not there after some JUCO seasoning, I'm not sure he'll get there. 

Aggy didn't offer knowing that landing Umstead would lock up Trey. That's a pretty big red flag.

100% to Aggy (all of 2 predictions), but still walking on to Florida.

I don't think they thought it would lock up Trey since Trey went to to Baylor's Junior Day instead of Aggy while Umstead was visiting. If Trey couldn't be bothered to tour the Ag facility with his brother I don't think signing Umstead was going to lock up anything.

And the plot thickens.
