2019 Recruiting - Football

Aggy, Bro. Aggy.

 

One view is that Tisdale was a hot name early, getting attention from all over. Then he got passed on his own HS depth chart. In the end, Ole Miss was one of the best offers remaining

 

Joe,

Is Tisdale related to the late Wayman Tisdale? If so, that means there is trouble in "paradise".

 

Mensah for Mensa?

 

Some CBs over the weekend
2 more of Osafo-Mensah to Texas (TTU guy and LSU guy)
One for Dylan Wright (by LSU guy)
One for Jalen Catalon (by Mike Roach)

 

this would also be under my topic of recruiting North Texas, but i'm surprised how many of my kids' friends (no sports) have gone to Ole Miss, Auburn, and Alabama from Dallas high schools.

 

Yep, same here.

 

Same is true of the children of doctors/lawyers/judges/engineers/the energy sector in SE Texas, especially including Beaumont/Houston. These schools (Ole Miss in particular) made a long term plan to target these kids for preferred admission in the hope/expectation they would become future donors. It is the application of analytics and "Moneyball" principles to college admissions.

 

I like Roschon giving a shout out to Garrett Wilson. We need that bonding for decision day.

 

Thanks Joe. Explains this one. He must have a strong arm.

 

Seems to, but maybe not as mobile as originally talked about. And he did win state as a junior playing behind a good OL

 

Cue the Media Graphic guys/gals in 3, 2, 1 ... Austin is best for second straight year!

Per TFB:

We are really starting to see Tom Herman’s initial strategy of trying to get the best in the country unfold. He started off his first year being competitive on the field and winning in-state recruiting battles. Now, they’re starting to fight and win some out of state battles. If two or three of those competitive games go the other way and Herman is recruiting from a 8-9 win season, the momentum at a place like Texas becomes hard to stop. (Super K)​

 

tOSU seems to have the lead for now with Wilson

 

Lance Armstrong's son to Rice

 

Proud dad

 

I don't know what's so insightful about that. I said the same thing more times than I can count at the end of the season and we would have won those 8-9 games if it hadn't been for some of the dumbest play calling in the history of college football.

 

I think one of the things that sets them apart is that they are not Texas fans, at least most of them are not.

 

In case you were like me and didn’t know ...

“He’s not built for speed like his father was. Standing 6-3 and 250 pounds according to the Austin American Statesman, Luke was an all-district guard for Texas state semifinalist Westlake last season and will join the Owls with preferred walk-on status in the fall.”

 

I think he says it smarter than you.

 

Any news yet? Not seeing anything yet. I can't seem to see the last Twitter post from LC.

 

Per BON, down to us and ND w/ “final” decision coming 5/19.

Our recruits really seem to be enjoying these

 

Occasionally a Tweet won't load. Not sure why.

I deleted it.
