2019 Recruiting - Football

Well, that sucks.

 

x2 with the way local WR Garrett Wilson is trending

 

We're gonna' have to earn it on the field... OU is now #1 in recruiting with two 5-stars and A&M is up to #7.

Good chance to see our numerous recruiting targets out there

 

Jimbo starting to haul them in. No way those recruits really understand that institution of higher burning.

 

We all know what is and isn't there, but 18 year old's listen to the snake oil salesman of their choice. However Texas now has to produce on the field.

 

OB says that Wilson was adamant to them that he has not made up his mind yet. But that tOSU people are convinced they are in the driver's seat.

We have brought up the idea of him also playing BBall --

“Coach Smart has been talking to my dad a whole lot. Coach Herman brought that up about a month ago. If I wanted the opportunity, it’s there. It’s something I’ll think about, but right now I’m making the decision on football only.”​

We should know some time next week

 

Some out there think we are on OL Tyler Johnson commit watch this weekend
Would be a huge get
We will see

 

The Top 6 class of 2020 recruits in Texas are planning to be in Austin tomorrow.

 

I'd love to see it, even for garbage minutes. Ricky Williams...Marquise Goodwin...Garrett Wilson.

Bobby Layne says "hello" - two baseball National Championships

 

who are the top 6 recruits of '20 visiting this weekend...

.........need some commitments this weekend..!!!!

 

I doubt the 2020s will be but of the 2019s, maybe Johnson, maybe TE Wiley. Also some noise about a Cal guy committing -- perhaps Bru McCoy, Jordan Patterson or Chris Adimora? There is going to be a big crowd eventhough the vast majority are all coming on their on nickel as unofficials. I see this a a very good sign, regardless. We will see if anything comes from it in the short term.

 

Lots of Texas stuff on Pattersons twitter.

 

Wake Forest grad transfer WR Tabari Hines sound like a no.
He says Oregon leads.

While standing in line on the field with my daughter to get autographs last night Daruis Snow came to the barriers to talk with some people right next to us who I assume was family. They asked him what he thought and he said he likes us a lot and that it feels really good here.

So, based on that, I'll CB him to the good guys!

If I were a teenage recruit visiting last night I would have committed on the spot. It was pretty awesome after the game seeing fans talk to recruits and players. The energy was something crazy that no other program can duplicate during a regular visit or game. Whoever decided to do this autograph session was genius!
