2021 Recruiting - Football

LOOK: Texas targets videoconference with Matthew McConaughey via Sports News

We are pulling out all the stops for these Brockmeyer boys... video conference with McConaughey

 

An ou mod put in a CB for S Andrew Mukuba (Austin LBJ) to Texas. We have the maj of the CBs
Makuba is a 3-star in the Comp but a 4-star per 247
He and JD Coffey are the top ranked in-state safeties in this class (Coffey is a 4-star in the Comp but a 3-star per 247)

 

Want him badly. Come to the best University, young man.

 

Darn shame Texas has to pull out all stops to try to get legacy kids...SMDH...You would think it would be a slam-dunk .

 

Jaydon Wiiliams goes with ASU
Just rather weird. But UT did not lose much.

Texas Recruiting Target Picks Herm Edwards, Arizona State

 

It ain’t over till the fax machine says so

 

This entire class would have had a lot more momentum too had they jumped on board early

 

I agree it's weird. He hasn't even visited Tempe. Claims Texas was dream school.
Disagree didn't lose much.

 

True. This one is beyond a head scratcher. One wonders which cacti Herm is serving them.

 

Looks like Jordon Thomas to Texas?
This one matters.

4-star DE Jordon Thomas announcing decision tomorrow

 

He looks like a beast

 

WR Quay Davis to USC

 

In the last week ....

TE Landen King
WR Tarik Black
CB Jahdae Barron
DE Jordon Thomas​

 

Not till the fax goes in. I am glad Texas is avoiding the needy players. I bet Herman has him off the board.

 

Texas fills a need.

Four-star defensive end Jordon Thomas commits to Texas

 

How would you grade Oscar Giles as a recruiter?

I predicted that we would finish in the top 3, if not number one, a long while back thinking we would get at least 4 top o-lineman. We still may but it's like rowing a boat against the waves. I would like to know where the Texas group of o-lineman are leaning this '21 class.

 

Improving

 

Some Jordon Thomas quotes --

“Their motto really touched me deep. They say state on your chest and family on your back. That really touched me..... “My grandpa told me if the opportunity is in your face, you might as well take it. I shouldn’t wait for a long time and I don’t know what the future is holding for me.”

“Everyone started blowing me up. They were so excited because they’ve been itching to get me. I’m a good fit for their defense.”

“One of the big reasons is they said they are going to do some charity work and go to Mecca. I’m a Muslim and one of my big priorities is to go there and make my pilgrimage.”​

 

Wiltfong put in CBs to Texas for RB Jonathon Brooks (Hallettsville) and S JD Coffey III (Kennedale).

 

Tempe itself isn't much, but the campus is nice and Scottsdale and the casinos are close by.

 

Just to clarify, Viper...My post may not have been clear...
It's the (now committed) recruit who hasn't even been to Tempe; though I don't think I have either. Closest I've been is Tuscon as I recollect.

 

Big head to head win vs Jimbo and aggy.

 

Kind of proves that UT is the Mecca of college football.

 

Jimbo gets a raise next year paid in advance for almost signing him.
