Ole Miss it is.

[TFloss32]

OL Javonne Shepherd will stick with UT.

[Vito Corleone]

Ole miss steals a 5'star RB and now the top Juco LB, anyone else starting to see the Ole Miss money machine getting going again.

I hear football is starting to catch on in Germany and a little bit in England. I know there is good attendance when the military base schools play each other. I have a feeling German is going to become like Samoa when it comes to producing American Football talent.

I've seen multiple tweets from Jordan Pouncey regarding his littlebrother, Ethan Pouncey of Winter Park (Fl.). I just now got around to see his HUDL. He's good. Like really, really good. I know people are really high on the other CB from Florida Texas offered (Jahquez Robinson), but Pouncey seems to be just as good.

https://247sports.com/Player/Ethan-Pouncey-46079307/

http://m.hudl.com/profile/8209954/Ethan-Pouncey

The Football Brainiacs think Pouncey's brother could be offered in the next couple of days.

Other DBs to watch for an offer are 2020 CB Ryan Watts (Little Elm), 2020 CB Josh Eaton (Aldine MacArthur) and 2020 ATH Jahari Rogers (Arlington).

Sounds like a brain aneurysm. I have had two friends suffer from them, and they are fine now. He is very lucky he got treatment quickly.

[Bloeddyr10]

I hear football is starting to catch on in Germany and a little bit in England. I know there is good attendance when the military base schools play each other. I have a feeling German is going to become like Samoa when it comes to producing American Football talent.

Germany has the best league here in Europe, top to bottom. But Austria has some of the best teams in Europe. Swarco Raiders Tirol is probably the most professionally run team in Europe and they benefit from an interesting relationship with the Oakland Raiders.

I've worked briefly with PPI (where Luke Wentz comes from) and I can testify that there's a good amount of talent in Europe. Wentz is somewhat of an interesting case since he's basically a WR/QB/ATH offer, but Virginia promised him a shot at QB. In 2020 PPI has Alexander Honig who's a QB throughout. If I were to recruit Europe, I would still focus on the trenches and EDGE guys. Europe has a lot of big men that can move. I know Texas were looking at a french DT (I think he signed with Buffalo yesterday).

To sum up, Europe is on the come-up and organizations like PPI Recruits and The Podyum are at the forefront of this. As a european, I'm just excited about how much football has grown in Europe over the past 10 years!

[pgardn]

England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Italy, France, all still seem enthralled with Rugby. Germany, not so much. And that is a very large population comparatively. Still, I don't really see how football is making inroads over Rugby. It's not like the American military bases are growing...

The Russians also pretty much suck at Rugby so...

For those of you who live over there any input is welcome. Thanks Bloeddyyr10. Interesting.

[DesignatedT]

Yikes.

I'd give Nick Starkel a call if I was him.

[TheMex]

Starkel a grad transfer or will he have to sit out a year?

he will be eligible to play next season.

[Bloeddyr10]

Nice post.

Thanks, Floss! I think it's an interesting debate to have, whether or not to actively recruit Europe.

Especially considering Towson's DL coach just spend two weeks in Europe in January. He even made the point that it's actually not more expensive to fly to Europe, than it would be to fly to the West Coast to visit a recruit.

Sorry, I didn't intend to de-rail the thread.

I have a friend whose son is a Mormon Missionary in Russia, he is teaching them how to play football and he said the last time they talked he had about 50 people out learning the game. Sounds pretty cool.

It's all relevant.

Coach Giles was looking at guys in France and Germany, plus there are always kickers coming over from Australia.

That rugby sensation from England played in the Under Armour game last year too.

TFloss! Just an idea, whenever you start the new thread we should make predictions with our class and/or make a list of must haves, etc. I love going back to those predictions a year later and see how off we were. CHEERS! Super pumped about 2020.

Just out of curiosity, how did the rest of y’all find this thread? I’m not a spurs fan at all, not even an NBA fan, and I’ve never even looked around this site. I just googled UT recruiting forums in the 2017 or maybe 16’ class. TFloss what’s the history here?

Grew up a Spurs fan in San Antonio and started following this site in 2008 or so after I graduated from UT.

I noticed there was some college football talk on here, but figured I'd start bullshitting about the Horns and see if anyone else was interested.

First thread started at the end of the 2010 class, and here we are.

I think I was talking to myself for a long time (:rollin), but it's been a lot of fun and a good way to keep up with every day stuff that a lot of fans don't pay attention to.

I knew it had been around for some years. I was on orangebloods from around 05-09but left bc I couldn’t stand Geoff Ketchum. I was in Afghanistan in 2012 and most of the internet was blocked in country but I found this site where you were always posting. Lost track of the site and couldn’t find it when I got back but found it again in 2016 or 17. For a long time though I could not post and never saw anybody else able to post so I thought I found a hole in the space time continuum where I could get most of the paid info, free! I’ll also admit that I haven’t told a soul about this thread for fear that one of the main sites will come raise a stink. Ha!

[madbevo]

Thanks a lot Tfloss! I’ve always lurked for many years. There’s no other site that I visit on a daily basis. Refreshing this topic and seeing new threads is the highlight of my day since I love the information and conversations. A lot of great contributors here.

This has been my go-to site for several years. It's among the first I check in the morning and the last I check at night, as well as interspersed throughout the day.

Wow, that sounds like kind of a sad existence. Oh well, hook em!

Thanks floss! I'm already perusing the new thread and taking mental notes and personal top 5 wants.
