Correct. He committed there without even visiting and having cousins that currently play for Texas.

To be fair, everyone and their mother knew that our coach was going to get shit-canned when Dobbins went to OSU. I can at least understand his decision. Now, Garrett Wilson? If he ends up at OSU, then fuck that guy.

What's hilarious is the guy that recruited Dobbins to Ohio State is now at Texas.

Any idea who could commit? Obviously not Kennedy Lewis. Unless it’s a 2020 but it seems like 2019.

Mookie Cooper, thus the "if Washington commits to Texas as expected" hint. Just reread that sentence.

Wilson is an Ohio kid. He was always going to Ohio state. When he was at Texas on his official, he kept talking to Drayton about Ohio State. Drayton and the rest of the staff knew the kid was tOSU bound long before the announcement. They had already moved on.

Truth.  Makes me wonder how they hide all this shit from recruits so they actually don't see what the city is like.  I was there for 48 hours and was in fear for my life about 8 of them.

Because nearly 15 years later it isn’t the same city you saw 2005. 

Think 1990 Austin compared with 2005 Austin kind of change.

but  we're not going to say anything else. I'll  be logging on Sunday night to discuss Saints/Vikings in the NFL thread.

It's Drew Brees?

I'll have to take your word for it.  I'm not going back.

The TE competition next year is going to be intense.

Beck has really stepped up this year, to set an example for the youngins to build off of for seasons to come.

Brewer

Leitao

Epps

Liebrock

Wiley

Epps, Liebrock nor Wiley are ready to compete for snaps in 2019. They all require at least another year of S&C.

Maybe Epps can be a red zone target split out. 

Sure, they all can but that is only a small % of a TE in our offense.

Bringing it back to 2019.... thoughts on Henderson vs. Hookfin?

Don't have any real thoughts comparing the two but I do hope we keep lines of commo open with both to the end in case Shepard decommits

I've waited my whole life to have a Mookie to cheer for. Such a great name.

As a grad of Garland High, I've had a Mookie (Blaylock) and a Herkie (Walls) to cheer for.  Though both were well before my time.  At least Herkie went to Texas.

Columbus has fun neighborhoods (it's sneakily one of the fashion centers of the country because of all the companies headquartered there) and 60k students that think you're a god.

Exactly. Football players aren't going to a college city to buy a house and get a real job. They get to live in a fantastic bubble of adoration from rich old men and pretty young women. At the best schools, you get a shot at a lot of winning and maybe a championship.

Just curious if there is room in the class for this guy in case we miss on Catalon?

Easy to truck a guy when you can get a running start. This isn't the CFL

Herkie Walls was fun to watch. That guy was a catch and see ya kind of guy. And yeah the name.

Ingram's a really solid back. Not a game-breaker type, as he lacks the straight-line speed to house it from distance very often...but he does prove the point about needing a better-than-average guy back there. Our best teams haven't all had elite backs, but over the years, our best backs have tended to be key parts of solid teams. Foreman was clearly the exception, in terms of team success...but it certainly wasn't his fault.   
We went to our last NCG appearance without a running game to speak of, but I wouldn't count on that being possible again..

I’m so used to being west of the Central Time Zone that I wa preparing myself for bad news when I opened this thread after not seein a personalized Washington thread in the first 10 recruiting threads. 

I now see that we still have 50 minutes to go. Pheww...
