Mookie Betts?

Dickey Betts?

They will take Johnson and Cooper. Cooper hasn’t been all that interested, but they’re not giving up on him. It’s a Carrington recruitment and he’s hoping for an Ossai kind of deal. 

Regarding Johnson, they wanted to hold off on the visit. He wants to come now. Fuck it. They’re in high cotton if they get him and get Cooper to actually visit.

If Kersetter can play RT, he can play LG, and I think he'd play it well. 

Not necessarily, two different skill sets

Green is the only other recruit I'd want.

I think Owens will be better than Richardson. 

Their class ranking is based on quantity, not quality.

Braden Mowry is no slouch, but I don't think he will ever look anywhere else. Cupp would be nice if UT didn't already have 2 TE's committed. It would be interesting to see what Orlando could mold Christian Harris into. 

[Fud 9545]

Caleb, Floyd, Tillman, Cooper, and Gbenda would be a great LB class, with three of them showing up in the spring

BOMC working OT, that is muy bueno.

[TommyGufano 6021]

Cool. So where's the ESPN piece?

[thepop 4409]

Every year there is an aggy commit who "reaches out". I don't believe any of it.

I'm betting Wright. I feel like Demani was making pro-aggy/ anti-Texas statements recently. Wright has been pretty quiet since he committed (out of nowhere).

Out of the loop, what’s going on? An A&M kid reached out to Herman? How do we know? 

[Lhorn 4885]

Suck it aggy. Outside of Texas no one thinks aggy when they think of state of Texas football. They are an afterthought and it’s not even close.

Ole Miss 247 says we're trying to get this kid to come on a visit: https://247sports.com/player/sam-williams-46053666/

Was the leftover cockgobbling brother in Norman the lead recruiter for any of 0u’s croots? I doubt it, but figured I’d check if this opens any doors.

[PNWhornsfan 391]

I'm sure the Aggy commit was probably someone like Kenyon Jackson.  Rumored to be wavering, lower rated WR who likely sees what LHJ and CJ are doing, and he is HS teammates with Watson.

I mentioned Marcus Hicks and the JUCO guy Jacoby Jones earlier.

So with Mike Stoops getting fired, who we want?

I assume they'll promote Ruffin McNeill for the rest of the season. So expect exactly more of the same. 

They'll never admit it, but OU is basically peak Leach Era Tech right now. 

[Dbeasy 14966]

Not Manny Diaz. Apparently he can coach.

Holy shit just saw on dirt burglars someone say that Tim Kisch is taking over?!  Lulz if true his LB unit has been terrible.

And RIley continues to make bad to horrible personnel decisions. We'll see how he does with out a ready made Heisman candidate at QB.

I figured Ruffin was recruiting Jacoby.

Wright and Demas have to be seeing that our coaches actually game plan for big receivers and aren't just throwing up prayer balls to Kendrick Rogers. All of that guys' targets are circus catches. He's gonna get hurt this season. 

Agree, both ljh and cj have twice as many catches as rogers. Hell, he us barely the fourth option on his own team, and, as you say, is barely schemed around.

Having said that, if their hand is out, and being filled by a&m, actual reality and results don't make a shit.

To butcher shepherd that badly, maybe he really is a drunk now. 

[Hizzaz Mahdoud 194]

Javonne "Sphered?" Is he as globally round as Daylon Mack?

[ousux 5587]

It for sure has been. Not as much this year, though. Kid has been playing tall, and physical. He's getting heavy contact and grabbing on some of these routes where he's still catching. I've had to eat some crow from my thoughts on him coming into this season.

This is his 3rd season and literally the first time he's used his size consistently...and only for the last 4 games. If he balls out against Baylor, ISU and Kansas the same way he did for the big name teams, he might be on his way to a decent draft round.

So did anyone see the Sanders article on TFB?

That it's looking better and better for Sanders but that we have to win over the parents who'd prefer he stay closer to home. Their source seemed confident on possibly landing him.

Wright remains the biggest Aggy bagman red flag recruitment. Committed to Aggy completely out of the blue. 

Honest question: are verbal, non-binding commitments for sale? Like paying a guy on a visit just to build hype for a class.

Yes. UVs and OVs are for sale. Verbals are for sale. Signatures are for sale. Verbals might not be worth that much though.

I always liked Manny, wouldn’t want to have to hate him.

This makes even more sense when you consider Kenyatta could be potentially recruiting him all the time since he's on the same team. The only ones I would look at is Leal or Green. Hopefully we hear more about this soon.

Tillman seems super bought in. The only OOS guy I have even a bit of nerves about is Houston, but that's entirely based on one errant Tweet.

I wonder if Texas can flip Major if they miss on Cain and Sanders? I’m not sure if Major wants to be “WR out of the backfield” for 4 years. 

[utexas8 1433]

I won’t believe sanders until he visits again. Has he had his OV to bama yet?

[Elmer_Fudd 22109]

I could maybe see Green reaching out if he's taking notice of how his former teammate Cosmi is playing while the aggy OL is still trash.

[horn_of_the_morning 978]

Name = Green
Color of Money = Green

Advantage = Aggy.

I want this to be true so bad even though I highly doubt it. Green flipping would trigger the fuck out of aggy way more than leal or Wright would.

I don't have the story here, but anything positive on our position with Bru McCoy at this point is worth posting.

The story is pretty much contained in the tweet.

Super K says he will go to California to see Bru in person this week.
