He will be top-tier in the state unless he has a disastrous senior year.

In on page 1:downspin:

Word on Mike Mitchel fron other sites is his dad is pretty sick and he wants to move closer to home. Likely this is a battle between TCU and SMU.

[Bloeddyr10]

Good to have you back Floss!

24/7 said that '16 WR Reggie Hemphill wants a Texas offer, so that he can commit back to the Longhorns. I didn't know that he is the step-brother of Texas WR Jacorey Warrick. That got to help someway.

Having to be away from the thread for two weeks AND National Signing Day sucked big time.

[Bloeddyr10]

Floss, I know that you probably have a lot of things to catch up. But InsideTexas had a note on Darrion Johnson a few days ago, do you know what that was about?

[Vito Corleone]

One of the posters on the Texas Rivals free board claims to be a coach at Reggie's high school. He was telling the board that Coach Strong came to his high school and he (the poster) was really impressed with him.

If the guy is who he says he is, then it could be a factor in why Reggie is waiting for this offer to come back.

[ThePop]

And we're looking so shitty for 2015 according to that list.

Mack really left us in bad shape. He says he left it better than when he got here, but outside of the money being made I'm not sure that is true.

[TFloss32]

24/7 saying Texas has offered 2015 DE Sterling Johnson of Clayton, NC:

http://247sports.com/Player/Sterling-Johnson-36641

[TFloss32]

Floss, I know that you probably have a lot of things to catch up. But InsideTexas had a note on Darrion Johnson a few days ago, do you know what that was about?

I did a search over there and all I could find was he enrolled at Kilgore College on January 20th.

Does that sound like what you're looking for?

[Mr. Peabody]

Welcome back TFloss. Thank you for this thread and the work that goes into it.

[ATX_Horn]

Floss, I know that you probably have a lot of things to catch up. But InsideTexas had a note on Darrion Johnson a few days ago, do you know what that was about?

It was something about the coaching staff letting it be known that they will be keeping a close eye on how Darrion is doing at Kilgore JC.
He would be eligible to transfer to a 4yr school next summer.

[yavozerb]

Good to see everyone back and in good spirits heading towards 2015..

All way under the radar guys, so anxious to see if it's serious interest or the staff casting a wide net.

[yavozerb]

All way under the radar guys, so anxious to see if it's serious interest or the staff casting a wide net.

This staff seems to be going after kids with high upside (3 star players) instead of relying on just star ratings. Not to say they are not going after elite talent, but the confidence of being able to take on kids who need to be coached up is already head and shoulders over the brown regime.

[leemajors]

Thanks for the new thread TFloss.

[TFloss32]

24/7 saying OL Josh Wariboko of Oklahoma City, OK could be in attendance next Saturday.

Probably has a decent relationship with Wickline already.

If that's the case, he needs to go to work helping Charlie get to know Texas high school coaches

If that's the case, he needs to go to work helping Charlie get to know Texas high school coaches

Oh hell no. No. No. Just no. Fuck no. No. God, no. No. Non. Nyet. No.

[Blake]

So Mack selling his house and taking another coaching job was just premature talk?

I would have thought he would want to take another coaching job somewhere, but damn, $500k a year to smile and shake a few hands is a pretty good gig.

[TFloss32]

Per OrangeBloods, QB Michael Brewer of Texas Tech has filed an appeal on the restrictions of his transfer. He should know the result by the end of today. TCU and Texas are the two Big XII schools he's considering and will set up official visits depending on the ruling. Also, a reminder that QB Max Wittek of USC wlll be visiting this weekend.

[Blake]

Huh. I thought Brewer was an unrestricted free agent

[FkLA]

^Kliff is kinda of a douche tbh. And how many scholarship QBs does he have, like two? :lol

I think it gets complicated if a graduate transfer wants to stay in conference, and Tech doesn't want to see him at UT or TCU.

no doubt Tech would block a transfer to conference schools if they could.

I feel bad enough for Brewer that I almost don't mind him going to Austin or Ft Worth

Per 24/7, another Louisiana prospect who says he will be at one of the Junior Days is DE Isaiah Washington of Edna Karr:

Youre assuming Mack wants his successor to succeed. He doesn't.

[Blake]

Youre assuming Mack wants his successor to succeed. He doesn't.

Then it's strange he would stay on at UT

[Clipper Nation]

Then it's strange he would stay on at UT
He wants the money, that's it....

[ThePop]

Mack is employed in the same way Diaz was employed after he was fired. Diaz was "reassigned" and was still making money. He didn't really have a job.

*A month later, after the bowl game, Brewer followed suit. He plans to stay at Texas Tech and earn his degree during the spring semester and transfer. He will be eligible to play immediately as long as he enrolls at a university that offers a graduate program that Texas Tech does not, per NCAA rules.

Nah but it does make sense to come in and make fun of someone who thought 3 QBs transferring in one off-season was no big deal.

It is a big deal, but even if Mahomes plays baseball instead of football leaving Tech with just Webb on scholarship, I'm still not terribly concerned.

Hell, I'm hoping Kliff gambles and redshirts Mahomes any way.

Inside Texas reporting WR John Burt of Tallahassee, FL has been offered.

Some of you may remember he visited UT earlier in the season and I believe his grandmother lives in the Austin area.

OrangeBloods reporting QB Michael Brewer's appeal to transfer within the Big XII has been denied.

24/7 thinks he will end up at Virginia Tech.

[TFloss32]

Update on OL Patrick Vahe of Euless Trinity (24/7):

"Those two (Teuhema brothers) decommitting has no impact on me. I don't do what they do - my reasons are different. I have my own goals."

"To be honest, I wanted to go to a school that was popular. Baylor, LSU, UCLA, USC, etc. - everybody hears UT and thinks it's just alright. I questioned it for popularity reasons, but I thought about it maturely and know that Texas is for me."

[TFloss32]

Saw a tweet where 2016 RB Kameron Martin will be attending the first Junior Day.

I expect him to be offered and he'll probably think hard about committing.

[Hook Em 88]

OrangeBloods reporting QB Michael Brewer's appeal to transfer within the Big XII has been denied.

24/7 thinks he will end up at Virginia Tech.

Now he's claiming Tech misdiagnosed his back injury, which really sounds like his butt is injured.

damn shame things didn't work out for him. I really wanted to see what he would do in this offense.

[benefactor]

Baylor....

Damn.
Is it that suprising? Briles has put Baylor on the map while Mack has been busy moving Texas off of it. A high school kid is only going to look back a couple of seasons when they give an opinion like that.

[Vito Corleone]

Is it that suprising? Briles has put Baylor on the map while Mack has been busy moving Texas off of it. A high school kid is only going to look back a couple of seasons when they give an opinion like that.

Texas is going to need a really good season to kick start it in the minds of the high school kids.

The aggie faithful have been saying this for a while, but to hear it from a kid committed to you is pretty strong. Good luck to Coach Strong, he is going to need it.

But it goes to show, that even big time programs need to keep winning or they become stale in the minds of high school kids.

Not really surprising at all. Just sad.

[FkLA]

It is a big deal, but even if Mahomes plays baseball instead of football leaving Tech with just Webb on scholarship, I'm still not terribly concerned.

Hell, I'm hoping Kliff gambles and redshirts Mahomes any way.

Why wouldn't it be concerning? Webb is only sophomore himself and if he goes down who gets thrown into the fire, another true freshman ?

Read that Brewer is being blocked from every Big 12 and CUSA Texas team, which includes UTSA. Hope Kliff eases up and allows him to play in CUSA. I think we'd have a legit shot at landing him tbh.

[Blake]

Or a juco transfer. But freshmen are coming in to college programs more ready to play than ever before. I'm not concerned.

Read it on UTSA rivals site, not sure if accurate. Where'd you read who Kliff did and didn't block him from? Also if Big 12 schools are blocked and Brewer wants to stay in state then yes we have a shot. UTEP landed Showers ffs.

[TFloss32]

Update on 2016 QB Josh White of Marietta, GA who will be in town this weekend for the first Junior Day (OrangeBloods):

"I love Texas. I grew up loving Texas. I was a big Vince Young fan," White said. "I feel really comfortable there with all the coaches. I'm looking forward to meeting them, but the main thing is meeting coach Strong. Ever since he was at Louisville, what he did with Teddy Bridgewater, I could see myself in that role. That's going to be a highlight for me. I've heard he's a great guy, a great coach."

"I just want to see what it would be like to be a part of the Texas family and actually get comfortable in Austin. I've hearing great things about it. A lot of people in Atlanta are really big Texas fans. I hear it's a really great city, with great weather."

"I've talked to coach Koenning. He said he doesn't have a lot to do with offering. I haven't even played a snap for varsity yet. Mississippi State did take a chance on me so they're my number one," White said. "If Texas took a chance on me, that would be the biggest thing in my recruitment."

"I competed with the seniors. The senior that they offered from that camp, I competed with and held my own with him," White said. "I was the most consistent. Of course I had some bad balls, but they saw my potential, my size, my athleticism. In the 7-on-7, I made some good throws. I was throwing against some Mississippi State commits and made some good throws."

"I run when I have to. But I would say my best characteristic, if not my leadership, would be my distribution," White said. "If it was basketball, I'd be a point guard. I like to get the ball into my athletes' hands and let them make plays."

"I'm so excited for this trip, I can't even explain. Just to be able to have opportunity to go to Texas is a blessing. I have a lot of family in Houston, so they might be able to come see me," White said. "If I ever go there, my grandmother could come see me play, so that would be huge for me. My mom's whole side of the family lives in Houston. And meeting coach Strong, as a man, that's a great accomplishment in my eyes. That will be a big moment in my recruitment."

[TFloss32]

Update on QB Max Wittek and his visit to Austin last weekend (OrangeBloods):

"Everything about my trip (to Texas) was awesome," Wittek said. "From the coaches to the players, the school, the campus - it all probably exceeded what I thought it would be."

"From the time I got to Austin on Saturday, Coach (Shawn) Watson and I were talking ball," Wittek said. "A lot of the concepts they are talking about, I ran at Mater Dei (high school)."

"So I already feel comfortable."

"He (Charlie Strong) looks you in the eye, and you know he's no nonsense. And I like that," Wittek said.

"You can tell the players really get along, and you can tell they respect Coach Strong," Wittek said.

"I was impressed."

As close as Austin is to Waco and in the same state... Nowhere else to go in Alabama like Austin. Tradition also plays a role. Columbus, Ohio. I don't see Baylor becoming UT. It's bigger than one coach over time. Strong has a huge advantage getting kids to Austin. It will kick in. Miami is still trying to undo huge damage done by violations and the Thug U image.

[benefactor]

I didn't think of this until you said it, but the proximity point actually helps Baylor as well. If they like Baylor as a school but like Austin as a town, it's just a short trip down 35 whenever they want to go hang out down there.

Inside Texas reporting, for a lack of a better phrase, the cream is starting to rise to the top when it comes to which players are going to be difference-makers for the team moving forward. No names were mentioned in this specific report, but apparently certain players have already been told they'll need to find a soft landing spot elsewhere before next season. WR Bryant Jackson and LB Aaron Benson were talked about in a separate post a while back as guys who may not make it to spring training.

[TFloss32]

Speaking of attrition, I was looking at the roster the other day and separated the scholarship players from the walk-ons. If you factor in the 2014 class, I have a count of 93 scholarship players for the fall roster. Those numbers include OL Garrett Greenlea, DS Nate Boyer and K Nick Rose. The latter two both received scholarships last year as walk-ons, but I'm not sure of their status for 2014. Greenlea took a medical redshirt last year and was basically a student assistant. I expect that to continue where he won't count against the numbers, or he'll transfer out for a fresh start since he hasn't contributed since he arrived. There are 24 seniors who will be leaving no matter what (LB Jordan Hicks is 25 depending on a medical redshirt) and about 8 to 12 underclassmen who are attrition candidates. Needless to say the 2015 class will have a lot of room; 25+ if Strong feels he needs it.

Inside Texas reporting RB Jordan Stevenson has been offered by Alabama.

Based on his pre-commitment comments, Mack and the family atmosphere seemed really important to him. But I remember he also had a relationship with Mike Davis. I hope we offer his teammate, S Prentice McKinney (http://247sports.com/Player/Prentice-McKinney-28628). He's my favorite uncommitted in-state safety.

I like McKinney as well. I have him as a part of this class in my own personal spreadsheet with recruiting notes and other stuff regarding Texas recruiting. That South Oak Cliff defense is loaded. They have like 3 Div-1 DL in the class of '15 and an entire secondary of future Div-1 players. '16 DE Marvin Terry and '16 CB "Juice" Parker are players to keep an eye on.

Deshon Elliott from Rockwall-Heath has recently overtaken McKinney as my favorite in-state S. Tremendous hitter and a guy I believe that DC Vance Bedford have been in contact with Elliott recently.

Quotes from Stevenson, from 24/7.

"Nick Saban said that he really wanted to talk to me. He's been interested in me and said that I'm a 5-star running back. Coach Saban said it's a blessing to really get to know a person like me and the opportunity and chance to get to recruit a guy with my skills. He said I'm one of the top running backs in the country," detailed Stevenson.

"He said if I went there, I'd have the opportunity to enhance my skills at the next level. He said that I remind him of Kenyan Drake and Mark Ingram."

"I was at a loss for words. They said I can visit on March 1, for a spring practice, or in June. I'll most likely go to all three. Alabama is a great opportunity. It's a blessing and God has his ways."

"It's still great with them. I'm still trying to get a feel and understanding for Coach Strong and the new staff."

"I have six offers and am getting interest from Ohio State and Oregon. My top four is Texas, Oregon, Ohio State, and Alabama."

That exact quote was the one that stuck out to me as well. Makes no sense. Who knows, maybe the offer isn't even committable? In the end, how many of the 'Bama offers are?

Speaking of RB offers, Floss any word on IT or OB about Ronald Jones? The 24/7 guys can't really figure out why he isn't offered and it's a mystery to me as well.

Bama's MO is throwing out offers like candy and getting big-time recruits to their camps for evaluation. I don't know if this includes the recent offer to Stevenson, but Bama has offered five RBs this week alone. Only time will tell how serious they are about him.

Not a thing. OrangeBloods mentioned the staff is currently doing evaluations of the 2015 Texas kids position by position, so that's why we're seeing so many out-of-state offers going out right now. The new staff is familiar with those guys from their old gigs, but no so much the Texas kids. It still doesn't explain why RB Tristian Houston is likely going to be offered before Jones, though. Supposedly Jones has said that he'd probably change his plans and visit UT within the next two weeks as long as they extend a formal offer.

Read an article where he said OL Trevor Elbert is his best friend and he's waiting to see how A&M's safety position works out. They already have Dunning, Pryor and will continue to pursue S Deionte Thompson. He didn't sound comfortable with that situation, but Sumlin can sell water to a drowning man right now so we'll see how that goes. Said he wants to make a decision around the time spring ball ends.

I believe we read the same article. I don't know why I called it an interview. With Dunning (most likely a LB at the next level), Pryor and Thompson committed elsewhere, I would actually be perfectly fine with Texas ending up with McKinney and Elliott. Two guys with tremendous amount of upside.

There was nothing in that report that referenced Strong doing something out of the ordinary. In fact, they mentioned the staff wouldn't be pushing hard for commitments as they'll be focusing on getting to know a lot of the in-state kids. Easy to forget this is the first time most of the prospects will be meeting the new Texas staff, including Strong.
