Texas recruiting notes 2019

[sidis 9990]

hey, speaking of bama, they currently have 7 defensive linemen committed in their recruiting class after signing 7 last year with quite a few already on the roster.  we signed 4 last year and have 2 projects so far this year to go along with what will be a fairly depleted roster.  so when i read in satanyash's recruiting mailbag post above that texas's staff "doesn't see defensive line as a big need," well...that's frustrating.

please don't threaten to murder me and rape my wife and daughters for sharing this opinion.

Who would have thought bama would do a better job of recruiting DL...

of course they will now...but that is because it's nick's most emphasized position in recruiting and it's also the reason for their consistent, sustained success in defense.

that's why if whoever the goober guys that reported it are right and the staff doesn't think dline is not a big need in this (or any) year, i find it a bit frustrating.

We’ve been discussing for weeks that more defensive linemen are needed. Why do you seem to think no one wants more? Why do you think the staff won’t sign more?

hopefully we will...at least the louisiana kid.  but to answer your question re: the staff, read the mailbag that satayanash posted:

Texas doesn’t see defensive line as a big need. I know most of you guys do, but the Longhorns are happy with developmental prospects Peter Mpagiand T’Vondre Sweat. Both are solid. Of course, they would like to land an elite guy like DeMarvin Leal or Faatui Tuiteleand/or flip JUCO product Jacoby Jones from Oklahoma, but I don’t think you’re going to see the defensive line class grow much. One more is likely, and right now, that's looking like Myron Warren barring an LSU offer. Maybe two at the most.

Again, Texas doesn’t view defensive line as a big need this cycle.

That would be a 9.95’r that doesn’t have a clue.

Did he slow down at the end so that he could throw that poor bastard down at the goal line?

Chips on the table. This staff has huge balls and I'm about it.

I hope Bru is watching our "throw it to LJH" offense with interest.

I've talked to 5-6 sources and recruits, and no one saw Javonne Shepherd on campus today. Now, I know what he put out there last night on his Instagram page, but until I hear otherwise I don't believe he ever made it to town. 

I'll work to get 100% confirmation.

Kinda weird to say with so much smoke and weirdness around this one, but I do think he actually likes UT. It's all about him getting his shit together and us managing the North Forest handler issues (aka FWK).

I am really hoping that we can get Banks as a 3rd corner in this class.  Can't hurt to have a 3rd cover guy, given how many pass heavy teams are in this conference.

Cain, McCoy, Cunningham and Hookfin on offense.  Warren, Cooper, Catalon, and Banks on defense.

If it drives off Watson and his skills and that potential Grayson pipeline, not worth it.

[Machinator 32102]

We were down 3 starting DBs by the end of the game today. I hope people understand why we recruit numbers at CB and S now (also, Orlando maybe should play less dime in those situations).

I hope Bru watched that and can imagine himself catching those passes from Sam for the next two years.

Holy shit what a reel for WR recruits to watch.

More importantly, a win.

Not that blowing a 17-point lead and almost the game against a mediocre team with a backup QB is going to impress anyone, but a third straight loss would have thrown a major wrench into the media narrative about us.

Dylan Wright must really like that money bag he got from aggy to take it over what big WR's are doing in our offense.  I think Demas will see the light eventually.

Do we want USC to lose or win? 

I’m scared if they lose Helton gets fired.

Looks like best case for them is 7-5 and maybe that bowl UCLA played in last year against a Big 12 team, Cactus bowl ( or maybe this is the one now called Cheeze-it bowl?? ).

We probably want them to beat UCLA and lose to Notre Dame. Going 0-2 against your biggest rivals is a death blow.

As for today, not sure it matters. Losing probably helps.

But if it were to drive Watson off, what does it say about him? (I don't think Banks coming here would drive Watson off - the staff is pretty upfront with recruits regarding their personnel needs).

It says nothing significant

[Neonmoon 38130]

I would think keeping Helton pushers Bru towards us, therefore we want a USC win tonight and against UCLA. Then lose against Notre Dame. The magical 7-5

Tee Martin will probably be gone by the time Bru takes his OV.

[Levi 2657]

The more LJH does good, the more it seems he might go to the draft. Bru has got to be thinking that, man I could be the that dude next year. Especially if Johnson stays, then there is a lot of room to grow into the position rather than go to usc with an unproven QB or at least no where near sams level.

Honestly, wouldn't mind if Tee Martin joined our offensive coaching staff. Would definitely be an upgrade at either WR coach or OC.

Good recruiter as well?

WR coach, sure. But OC? Why shake up the offensive staff when we're finally reaping the rewards of some continuity there?

I'm all for Tom Herman to continue calling plays. Will he do that next season is the question?

I’m going to guess hookfin. 

I want to say the EJ cb pick of Lewis means bru to Texas, but I think he’s going to wait til the end to decide, to get as much info as he can about usc’s intentions with its coaching staff.

Hookfin? One of the JUCOs? Seems like everyone else either has a date or is waiting to visit.

Hmmm, thought Hookfin said he wanted to make some visits. Was Caleb Johnson’s Oregon visit this weekend or next? Could be warren was told he won’t get an offer from LSU

With USC currently melting down against Cal, it's looking more and more likely Bru to Texas might be a given. Stadium looks empty, we have LJH and CJ, we're on the up, and Helton is a regard. Put him in the calculator 

[RabidM 2755]

We need USC to not melt down. A melt down might mean a new head coach.

I'm sure Jack Del Rio is going to just pull in 5* recruits left and right. What, with his long tenured shitty nfl career? I bet kids will flock to him. Next Saban, if you ask me.
