Actually, Elliott decommitted from Houston - my bad for not updating. He's leaning our way presently. Oliver has scheduled OVs to 3 or 4 big time programs (not us ) so he's shaky at best.
I'm really wondering about this recruiting situation.. it just feels like there's not enough wind in the sails....
If Heard can keep it going and our team can make it look explosive and exciting to play for Texas then the recruits will want to come here.
We are whiffing on DLs (OL too for that matter) Luckily it's a very deep year Higs seems convinced we land Elliott Other DT/NTs we are in on -- Stephon Taylor, Glen Logan and Marcell Southall. The known DEs we are after are Rahssan Thornton, Erick Fowler, and Antonneous Clayton (Georgia).
His coach is buds with Traylor In 4 games this season, Fitzgerald has 20 tackles, 7 tackles for loss, 4 sacks, 14 QB hurries, and 4 QB hits
We offered 3-star New Orleans St. Augustine DT D'Andre Christmas-Giles He is supposed to have set up an OV with us (+ Tennessee, Nebraska & Colorado) http://247sports.com/Player/DAndre-C...as-Giles-80063
We are supposedly talking to a JUCO SDE -- Josh Allen of Long Beach CC. Zona commit. Has 3 years left -- was a full qualifier out of HS and canl be an EE http://247sports.com/Player/Josh-Allen-78563
Higs says DT Stephon Taylor has moved on (as of our TCU performance) EJ Holland, however, thinks we still have a shot. Either way, Jordan Elliott is clearly a must. Southall also still a maybe
