Inside Texas mentioned in their recruiting chat today that UT doesn't have great positioning with 2021 OL Reuben Fatheree of Richmond Foster right now, but they're predicting 2021 OL Savion Byrd of Duncanville to be the other tackle opposite 2021 OL Tommy Brockermeyer.

Byrd is currently being ranked higher than Fatheree across all sites and Rivals has him as a five-star.

With Evans there this weekend, I'm pretty sure Saban drove him there. Also pretty sure he is there for recruiting purposes and I don't mean him going to Texas.

Hook Em 88
06-20-2019, 05:59 PM
Yeah I’m more for a combo of one or both of Jase and Bijan and leave Evans out the mix. Get the feel this will pull resources from guys with legitimate interest. You don’t leave a school out of your “Top 10” and continue this kind of connection with a school you’re not prioritizing.

Harvey88210
06-20-2019, 06:04 PM
I just don’t understand where Herman is at on this. I guess the man doesn’t really have to explain shit to us but why do you let a kid with a voice that big publicly humiliate you and then invite him back into your place of business? It makes you look like a cuck, almost definitely isn’t going to get you anything with the kid, and could possibly effect the outcomes of other recruitments. The only way I would think that a coach as aware as Tom Herman let’s this happen is if they both know Zach wants to be at Texas and is looking for a reason not to go. Or maybe Zach asked Herman for guarantees or assurances that he wasn’t willing to offer earlier in the recruitment and now he’s re-evaluated his stance.

You’re 100% right. I just said that I’m worried that it will affect it, not that they shouldn’t pursue other RBs in fear of scaring Bijan. I understand how recruiting works, I just made a simple observation.

Vito Corleone
06-21-2019, 09:08 AM
I'm a big proponent of the idea that the current season's success has little to no effect on the decision of the current high school senior's decision, but it has a profound effect on the decision of the junior class.

In other words, who we pick up in the 2020 class is based on how we preformed last year not this up coming season.

Unless we do something extraordinary like win a Heisman or get to the national title game. That is usually a total game changer. Demas picking aggy over us isn't likely to change just because we have a good year and they have a 8 win season.

For the record, I'm not concerned about USC at the moment, we all know that Clay Helton is a dead man walking, what concerns me is who their next coach might be. If they pick up Urban Meyer, I'm pretty sure he will have them back to the days when Pete Carroll was there. That is when the West Coast will like be pretty much shut down for the elite 5'star kids.

concurred. Like you note, barring some huge impact kind of event (us being in the natty, a&m having a losing season, etc), this year's results generally have very limited, if any, impact on the current class. I've seen that as well.
And it's probably even more along these lines with the early signing day, which means those who do sign then will have even less to view (bowls/playoffs).

You have Dallas/Ft worth area sewn up with the Duncanville thing and Beatty and it’s not like you’re shut out of all of Houston at all. Bryan Carrington is still a force there. Maybe NS kids can recruit UT for offers if they want them.

My running joke mocking SECN is that their two highest rated shows would be "Collegiate Bass Fishing," and "Redneck Spelling Bee."

Hasn't made me many fans in "that" part of Texas.

I'm talking to people at both the Big 12 conference and LHN next week. I will ask about the possibility of producing a show focused on a skills competition between UT and A&M athletes. If the events were representative of NFL combine tests, or other training drills used my most college programs, it could be both informative to the fans and educational for recruits.

Personally, I'd love to see "College Athlete Jeopardy!"

I still feel like that’s probably the case (prob going public by midweek). I think other guessing B Washington may be right about the “shhh” just bc it fits his commit timeline. I don’t think Bijan would just commit on his visit. I think he’ll still take time. Maybe ransom called the staff to let them know?

I like CTJr’s ability to play OLB plus he’s another #DallasToAustin cog piece. Ransom is prob the better safety of the two and will obviously help with Ringo and Bijan too though... I just know I’d rather have those two than Washington and I think Thompson is already ours.

Weird because early reports were he wasn't to into the visit.

Interesting thing is he visits LSU and becomes an LSU lean, He visits Austin and because a Texas lean, now he visits tOSU and is a tOSU lean. hopefully he puts some distance between the visit and his commitment so that he can do so with a clear less emotional decision.

The thing about Dline recruiting at Texas is that we play in the Big 12 and it means we face sophisticated offenses every week. Our defensive linemen have to be guys that can get to the QB not stuff the run. aggsy have to have dlinemen that can stand up to massive offensive linemen and stop smash mouth running games. They have to have guys like Broughton who is going to be a 3 technique in that defense. Somehow they sold him on being a 5 technique, but they won't put him there. they are going to turn him into Dillon Mack. Here at Texas he is a strong side DE much like Ta'Quon Graham. At first I thought that losing him was the biggest loss in this class, but it isn't. Collins has basically become Broughton in that he is about the same size with more athletic ability. If we miss on Broughton and get Collins, then I'm good. Miss on both and then I'm going into panic mode.

I still have faith that this staff and put together a great class. I'm now wondering what is going on in Columbus that they are suddenly getting all this attention. Their mods were giving Texas all these crystal balls and suddenly these same guys are leaning to the Buckeyes?

I have a feeling Big Red Motors has a second location in Columbus Ohio.

Inside Texas mentioned A&M did a very good job of convincing him that he's best suited for 4-3 DE even though Broughton has already said himself he's destined to be an interior guy.

Based on this specific report, Texas could now be running third behind A&M and Ohio State.

Wow, we might strike out all around in Arizona, that just blows my mind.

As for Broughton, doesn't he realize that most NFL teams are running some version of the 3-4. If he really wants to be a DE Texas is the place for him. I guarantee he is a 3 technique in collieville. Here he is a 5 technique just like TaQuon Graham. How can he not see that? He might grow into a 3 tech while here but he will never grow into a zero technique, he doesn't have the build. The best 0 tech are guys who are a bit shorter around 5'11 to 6'2 and weigh more than 300+, usually around 330. Like I said, if we get Collins, I'm satisfied because he has grown into the same size as Broughton but he is a better athlete.

Hopefully Ransom, and Broughton will slow their process and let the visits ware off so they can make a emotion free decision based on the facts. This is especially true of Ransom who has said every school he visited was his leader at one point. He and his parents should sit down and make a smart decision based on facts not the emotion of the visit.

As for Broughton, he is about to tie his quarter horse to a plow, if he picks aggsy he will spend the next 3 years wondering what it's like to win a conference or play in a good bowl game.

For good reason. The past couple years have shown you can’t take a ‘sit and wait’ approach. It failed last year with kids that should be on UTs roster right now. We can sit back and play cool like everything is fine but the schools that are winning and putting kids into the NFL are doing it another way.

Obviously not sit and wait at this point if a kid likes us they do and if not so be it. Fairly certain we weren’t in a favorable position last June and all seemed to end pretty well.

I’m not trying to play Debbie downer but we were far better off this time last year. We had 11 guys committed and were leading for two 4-star kids that committed in early July. We have 7 right now and are rapidly losing any shot at getting any of the top guys we’re targeting. I see us as a top 8-12 class in Feb. This season will have very little impact on 2020 kids in my opinion. Most top kids already have a good idea of where they want to go by now. Most of those kids in top 50 have either taken/planned their OVs already or have already committed. Top 10 class is nice and we SHOULD clean up in state next year with the 21’ kids. I’m a pessimist though. Lol. The sky is falling and we are going to lose every recruit bc Bijan and Broughton told us no thanks.

Are you kidding?

This has got to be Blair, you sound just like him. Take a deep breath, Texas will sign a top 10 class. right now we are going after some great players and they are taking their time in making a decision. Sorry if Broughton and Ransom are leaning in a wrong direction, they are two out of 300 guys. It's not the end of the world. You can include Robinson in that group as well. We have filled our biggest need in the offensive line this year, we have huge momentum in the DFW area and we will still sign 23 guys and we will by happy with our class.

Take a close look at the Texas top 20 this year. UT will do better in that group than anyone else even without Broughton. With all this worry about the dline, one thing is sure, so far under Tom Herman I have yet to see Texas get pushed around by anyone. That tells me our coaches can not only recruit but develop our dline. Giles has put a ton of guys into the NFL and will continue to do so. If I had to chose between a Poona Ford and Dylon Mack, I'm taking Poona every time and so would all 30 NFL teams judging by his production.

If Broughton wants to follow in the steps of Dylon Mack that's on him, Charles O and Poona are much better examples of what Texas could have turned him into.

Per Rivals, WR LV Bunkley-Shelton of Gardena, CA will be visiting UT on July 26th.

That's probably the date of the annual night camp.

Why is the sky all of the sudden falling?

So, Bijan Robinson might be trending Ohio State because some players at a Rivals camp said that's what they thought he was leaning (an event with a few tOSU players, that might be the source on this one), as well as the fact that his teammate Ransom is leaning towards tOSU? InsideTexas mentioned earlier that they weren't as tight as some believed they would just because they are teammates. Mike Roach of 24/7 still thinks Texas has a good chance here.

Jase McClellan had a "secret visit" to Texas in March, and could still be open to Texas despite his OU commitment. He will definitely be back in Austin again.

Broughton isn't as slam-dunk as people assumed. Surprise, he's a top 100 players (probably a top 50 when it's all said and done). It's going to drag out with those kinds of players. Broughton has been notorious for loving all of his visits, let the "high" wear off the A&M visit before we start calling him an A&M commit.

Yes, Texas is going to lose out on Lathan Ransom. Probably the position where Texas is deepest. Unfortunate, but not too bad. If Texas were to miss on a top 100 player, I would probably prefer it'll be him. Not because he's a bad player, simply because that's not were Texas needs immediate help.

Texas could very well be back in front for Bryson Washington when he announces in about 10 days. There's a good looking safety, who's junior tape didn't become public until April. If people care so much about rankings, he's a guy I would expect to climb up the rankings.

It's been about three weeks since Ja'Quindon Jackson committed and blew the door open to the Dallas area. Texas landed Quaydarius Davis right after.
#DallasToAustin is real.

Texas landed Kitan Crawford on Friday, arguably the top corner in-state and one of the most freakish athletes in this class.

Johnny Wilson just visited twice in a few weeks and will return for an OV later in the fall.

Add to that, Bryan Carrington still has two "shh" tweets unaccounted for, if I'm not mistaken.

Two straight top three classes as well as a current class ranked 2nd this year based on average player rankings (behind Clemson). I'm usually not a sunshine pumper, but things aren't looking as dark as some of you guys are making it to be.

You know I hate to say this, but the same arguments used against us with Broughton were the same arguments Mack used against the aggsy back when RC was their coach. We won several big battles against the aggsy because RC was a 3-4 guy and Mack was a 4-3 guy. I'm not going to say we should switch because I like how our defense plays these passing schools in the Big 12, but if we keep our scheme we have to be ready for the consequences

What happens on the field is the best recruiting tool.

Somebody needs to explain probability to these kids in HS.
Between injuries, other kids improving and passing them up, girls, school, life...
Good luck with those first three rounds.

I know the stats show that an abundance that go in the first 3 rounds are 5 and 4 stars.
But what % labeled as such as HS Seniors without a senior season even started actually make it soundly to adulthood and a big beginning payday in the NFL.

But in the meantime recruiting is very interesting.
Some insight into the minds of the physically gifted male adolescents.
And It ain’t a pretty sight.

to be fair on mack, a lot of it was on him. he struggled constantly with his weight and really didn't come around until his final season. also, the type of d-line he had when he was a frosh was significantly different than the d-line he had as a senior. the d-line at a&m went from being its biggest weakness for the defense to its biggest strength.

I dare say that if Yancy McKnight was his S&C coach he wouldn't have had those weight problems. Yancy is one of the biggest assets this program has, he has worked wonders on guys like Poona Ford, Charles Omenihu, Ta'Quon Graham, and every olinemen in the program. Your dline coach is the same one you had under Sumlin? For all of Oscar Giles issues as a recruiter, he is a hell of a developer when it comes to his dline. These guys are tough as nails.

What happened to Terry Price? I'm sure that Jimbo has changed things for the better but they have convinced this kid that he is a 5 technique in a 4-3 scheme and nothing could be further from the truth. His classic size and ability are 100% 3 technique. I do however now agree that unless Texas changed it's scheme it would likely be playing him out of position.

As for Jerry Schmidt, he was the S&C coach at Oklahoma for a really long time. I'm not too sure that is a huge improvement as he was the guy that was trying to make guys eat their own vomit. However, blOwU did win a lot of conference titles with him as their S&C coach, so we shall see what happens there. I just know that Yancy has been lights out for Texas and it absolutely shows in the body makeup of each player, these guys are coming out extremely ripped and extremely strong.

I think Umanmielen prob goes to OU. No knowledge, just feels that way based on his pasts tweets.

Great news about Wilson and I think we’d beat out UO for him but I worry if USC hires an Urban-esque guy.

Washington just seems like an OU lean. Feels like he would’ve committed already with all of the big safeties we’ve been so close to bringing in and taking up spots.

Hoping Bijan gets back to AZ as soon as possible and gets away from the negative recruitment that he prob hears at whatever camp he’s at.

Sucks fat nuts about broughton. Leal last year and broughton this year is a complete failure in my opinion. It just feels like both guys were ours to lose and we lost them.
