Washington supposedly has as well, and they said Rojo looked a lot better on day 3.  Haven't seen anything on Gbenda or Liebrock.

Liebrock had a deep corner catch from Roschon earlier, the only mention I've seen

Is Donovan Jackson Dontavious’s younger brother?  If so, he will go to the highest bidder just like Dontavious.  To refresh peoples memory, Dontavious signed up to play for Jimbo and was recruited by Brewster.  That was one dirty recruitment.  Hope he’s enjoying being a door mat at FSU.

Of course Texas will use that victory as a selling point to Deondrick Glass. I'm looking forward to catching up with his father later today. There are similaritities to Glass' and Tre Watson's styles of running and opportunity abounds next season.

Q: Any new randomness on Shepherd? Any other OL targets out there or are they just gonna scour the grad transfer market? 

EN: Latest on Shepherd I’ve heard is he’ll likely stick but I won’t make any bold predictions one way or the other.

Every avenue is on the table for o-line recruiting.

This guy is 100% CB to aggy...would be hilarious to watch aggy say he sucked anyway if he comes to play for the good guys:

OL Donovan Jackson, Bellaire Episcopal (2021) — “I can’t say I saw this coming. This was definitely a wake up call to reevaluate my recruitment. I always thought of Texas highly, but this is a win that I needed to reassure myself in what Coach (Tom) Herman is building.”

When you see “Bellaire Episcopal” as the school for a recruit, you should assume that Slick Willie Lyles is involved, and all that that entails. 

Expand  


"Bellaire Episcopal" is the closest thing in Texas to one of the SoCal Catholic Schools. They have their wealthy students who fill the school's website and then they have their recruited D-1 football players to fill out the football team's roster.

If they are a top D-1 player, then they absolutely were recruited, are on a full ride (save for Walker Little) financial aid setup, and were paid to go there in the first place. There is no reason for them to take money to play at a high school, where football loses money, and then NOT take money to choose a college, where football is a multi-million dollar asset to the top schools.

There is such a VY vibe in this video that I can't help but grin like the Cheshire Cat.

From the #10, to the insane natural talent, to the love of dancing and feeling the vibe, to the all business when it's go time (not saying that VY was a practice warrior, because I only saw him in games).

After USC went up by 12 on the TD pass that also resulted in Tarell Brown's broken arm, I was deflated, because for the first time all game, we were down TWO scores. Then, from my south/southwest End Zone seat, I looked up the Texas sideline and saw VY dancing, having fun, just waiting for the kickoff to go in and put on a show, and I got goosebumps all over my body and I softly said- 

"Oh... We're gonna win."

And then I had a huge grin and warm feeling spread over me, because I knew that VY was going to take over like he had the year before against Michigan.

That feeling is the same feeling I get watching De'Gabriel do his thang before and after he does his drill. Texas will have a VY on DEFENSE for the next 3 years.

YES!!!!!

It wasn't.  Kid needed to get out of state as he had a not so great crowd around him.  He was leaning going out of state the entire time despite the reports from $9.95'ers here that he was leaning Texas.  Don't know for sure, but I don't think that one was dirty.

Clemson has super-low attrition, though - so their talent level is higher than their recruiting rankings suggest (because they have smaller classes). I think they are at a different level than other non-Bama contenders.

 

EDIT: low attrition also means mature players that have had more time to grow in their system

Expand  

By "grow," you mean "take steroids."

Wiltfong: "Among a very talented roster, Texas commit Tyler Owens unique to his peers, fluid, rangy and obviously very fast. College ready frame too, will push a talented Longhorns secondary right away."

247 mod Charles Power: "Tyler Owens has impressed Barton and I, he's obviously one of the more impressive guys here from a physical standpoint, but he's making plays in coverage as well. I know some have had questions about his actual football skills, but he's checked that box quite well thus far."

Yeah and iirc , the first Off. play after the kickoff was a sack or big loss. I was really feeling the doom and gloom.  But alas VY saved the night.

It was. He had some type of handler that went with him on all the visits. At one point there were discussions of if Jackson even had a spot at Texas because Strong didn't want to deal with the handler.

he was Lake Travis's LT the past two seasons. He is 6'3 ish and 270+. he projects to guard or center. good feet. nice technique. smart, hard worker. good strength but really needs to get a lot stronger moving forward. he is a big tough kid. he should be able to get to 300 pretty easily. his dad is a big dude too. i expected him to go to Rice or SMU or Houston and contribute after a few seasons in the SC program. i have coached him in baseball and football since he was in 1st grade. great kid. loves the Longhorns. accepted the PWO over smaller school scholarship offers. i expect him to offer depth at center or guard. he is also a long snapper.

Do you know which smaller schools gave him scholarship offers?

this is what winning does.  he may prob never play a game.  or he may grown into a fucking mauler.   but the fact that he would rather walk on to join this team than accept a full ride playing somewhere else says everything about the program's trajectory.

 

winning, it pays dividends.

Great news about being a long snapper with his size. He could forge an nfl career out of just doing that like Cullen Loeffler.

Nice to hear he's open to snaps at RB position.....

If he ends up being our 2nd RB in the class I would be ecstatic. Frees up Jake Smith and Josh Moore to battle for snaps behind LJ and Duvernay and saves us from taking a 5th or 6th option at RB to take up a scholarship next year.
