2020 Midland Lee WR Loic Fouonji (6'4,186)
He is originally from Cameroon and is supposed to have run a 20.42 200m this track season, a great time for someone that tall.

Loic Fouonji, Lee, Wide Receiver

 

are we trending at all? any good vibes?

 

The CBs are mixed - FSU leads with less than 50%. I dont think there are any for us. But he is an exceptional player, a real madman at OLB, so we make the effort. Getting a guy to Austin on an OV who has already declared he will not sign with an in-state school has to at least gives us a punchers chance.

 

Sherman decided to march to Georgia

 

Hey you, move this sort of stuff to the Civil War board.

 

Did you mean to say either the War Between the States or The War of Northern Aggression instead of the Civil War?

 

Joe: Any other targets wanting to make decisions this summer?

 

Thank you, Viper

 

Excellent post, Viper. There is nothing "civil" about "war." It was indeed the "War Between the States."

 

The latest is that he favors LSU now

 

We offered 2020 JUCO DT Perrion Winfrey (6'4,305) from Iowa Western CC where he was teammates with JUCO OT signee Willie Tyler

Top 5

 

We offered 4-star LB Len'Neth Whitehead from Athens, GA
Supposed to visit Austin for the big June 21st weekend.

 

Hornsby committed to UNC - Aggy mad

 

Rivals thinks the recruitment of OL Damieon George (from GP North Shore) is down to two teams - us and Alabama.
The indication from them is that the player likes Coach Hand while the player's mother leans Sounds.

 

They mad at Brewster?

 

Quick, somebody send in Matthew McConaughey.

 

2020 JUCO CB Aaron Reynolds (6'2,184) at Tyler JC now, originally from Montgomery, AL.

 

Inside Texas thinks our max class size for 2020 will be 23.

 

2020 RB Tahj Brooks from Naor de-commited from Tulsa.

 

Mom updating Roach's update
(and maybe dropping a spoiler about the Tree?)

 

Here, Roach gives updates on Lathan Ransom and Kelee Ringo both of Tucson Salpointe Catholic --

... Texas will get two chances this summer to make a move with elite safety prospect Lathan Ransom. Blair Angulo from 247Sports reported that Ransom scheduled an official visit for June 21st, and Ransom told me he will also be in for an unofficial visit on May 31st. The unofficial will run through June 3rd as Ransom spends time with family friends in the Austin area. Ransom used officials to Oklahoma and LSU, and he still has Notre Dame and Ohio State on the docket. Texas is on the outside here, but they have a chance to make up some ground during the summer.

.... We heard a lot of buzz around Georgia following Ringo’s visit there during the spring, and I expected some of that buzz to wear off after the visit. I checked with a source near Ringo who feels that the Dawgs have opened up a lead here, and Ringo clicked with a couple of their commits. Texas really needs to get the five-star cornerback on campus again to re-establish some position in this recruitment.​

 

Something pulled from the Inside Texas chat on a couple of targets --

Justin Wells: Texas coaches Criag Naivar and Jason Washington were at John Tyler this evening, watching CB Kitan Crawford. His penchant for wearing burnt orange is a wonderful sign. This is trending well.

Eric Nahlin: Need more early evals like this and Jordon Thomas. It gives UT a tremendous advantage.​

And speaking of Jordan Thomas, people are already saying he looks like a future 1st round pick -
