He's not that good compared to the other DL Texas is targeting. I don't think he's a priority at all right now.

Quote from five-star RB Kendall Milton of Clovis, CA before his unofficial visit to Texas this weekend (OrangeBloods):

"The first thing is the strength of the business school because I want to be able to set myself up well after football. The second thing is seeing how the depth chart is because I want to go in and get early playing time. The third thing is just seeing how the teams can benefit you after college because once that clock ticks and it’s all said and done, you have to be able to be set up for life after football because it’s still a long life to live. I want to go to a school that can help me succeed off the field after everything is all said and done."

https://247sports.com/Player/Kendall-Milton-46041050/

Update on Virginia grad transfer OL RJ Proctor after his visit to UT over the weekend (24/7).

He plans on officially visiting Florida State, Houston, Ohio State and Oklahoma before making a decision.

“The visit was great,” Proctor said. “I’ve never been to Texas, so I didn’t have any idea how it would be, but as soon as I stepped off the plane and felt that weather, I knew I would like it (laughs). My favorite part honestly was just being with the players. Their culture is tight much like ours at UVA, so it reminded me of my old team.”

“We had good conversations,” Proctor said. “He’s (Coach Hand) always been a down to earth guy. He cares a lot about his players. Like I said, I’ve been studying Coach Hand’s fundamentals before I even met him in person. Our coach went to a clinic of his, and I’ve been following his technique ever since."

“I got to meet his wife, and he told us about his kids, so I feel like I know him on a different level now. He’s a good guy, and I’d love to be coached by him.”

“I don’t really have anything to compare it to, but Texas is a good school, and I like everything about the program,” Proctor said. “I can’t just narrow it down to one thing I like about Texas.”

[TFloss32]

Update on five-star RB Zach Evans of Galena Park North Shore (24/7):

“I’m just playing it slow leading into my senior year,” Evans said. “I’m still looking to make my decision in February. I’m still looking at Oklahoma, Texas, Alabama, Clemson and other schools like that.”

“Texas stands the same,” Evans said. “It’s just about me getting back to campus. I’ll be up there soon. I know they are already building their offensive line. They have the hype right now. I think they’ll live up to it. I mean, they beat Georgia.”

“Their offensive line recruiting does impress me,” Evans said. “It’s going well. Offensive line is a big factor. I’m also looking at quarterback. I know they have Hudson Card. As a player, he’s very athletic. We hadn’t played against a quarterback like that until him then Duncanville.”

“I DM’d Kendall (Milton) on Twitter and got his number and we got know each other,” Evans said. “Kendall can carry the load. He’s a big back. I like competing with the best. Being on the team with him would be great. He’s physical and fast. With me and him, no other team would stop us.”

[TFloss32]

He’s one of the big fish though right? So what am I missing here, why would there be any doubt as to whether or not they truly want him?

Yes, he's highly-ranked.

But there are questions about who's running his recruitment (Deion and his 7-on-7 coach), if Texas actually likes others more than him and if he's a personality/culture fit ("recruit me like I'm a five-star").

I don't expect him to end up at Texas.

Wow, Kendall Milton's film reminds me of the kid we just faced at Georgia, he is huge and can cut on a dime without slowing down one bit. Honestly, I think I like him more than I like Evans, and that is saying something because I love Evans. Dare we think we can get Mookie, Evans and Milton? Seriously, Those 3 to go along with Keontay and Whittington might be the deepest backfield in Texas history.

“It was a great experience meeting all the coaches,” Harris said. “They seem like great and fun people to be around. It felt like a family environment. I had a great time here. I thought the family environment was really great. I felt at home here.”

“Coach Giles is a cool person,” Harris said. “He really energetic. He’s really fun. He seemed like he would be a fun coach to play for.”

“It does impress me (that Texas signed Jake Smith and Brayden Liebrock),” Harris said. “I think it would be fun to play with some of the players that from where I’m from in Arizona. I think the players coming in have a lot of talent, so they’ll be fun to watch here.”

“I like Texas a lot,” Harris said. “I haven’t made a top schools list or anything. I’m still trying to see some of the out-of-state schools.”

What are Bryan’s career aspirations? Does he eventually want to coach?

[TFloss32]

What are Bryan’s career aspirations? Does he eventually want to coach?

I haven't read anything saying he's ever coached a down of football, or that he wants to.

His dream has always been to recruit for a big college program and build a team behind the scenes.

Before joining Herman's staff at Houston, he had jobs at Home Depot, a furniture store, he was a bartender and even a caregiver for a home healthcare company.

At this point he's probably well on his way to making just as much money, if not more, than the average Power 5 assistant coach (with more raises to come) and he doesn't have to live in that revolving door of coaching where he's at a different school every couple of years.

If Herman can further establish himself as THE guy for the Texas job, Carrington is set for a long time.

If we're talking strictly wildcat, I'm not sure Thompson would be the first option.

He should definitely be the #2 QB behind Ehlinger, however.

I'm just spitballing here, and it's hard to know because the staff will be working with weapons not seen at UT in a long time.

Quotes from 2021 QB Preston Stone of Dallas Parish Episcopal after his weekend visit to UT (OrangeBloods):

“It was fun. I got to meet with coach (Tom) Herman for a while. We took a tour of the facilities, got to meet a lot of coaches,” Stone said. “I saw all the new early enrollees.”

“He (Herman) basically told me that he’s really interested in me coming here. It was great to get to talk to him,” Stone said.

“We went to a position meeting, and what coach Beck was really preaching the entire time was what it means to be a Texas quarterback. You look at guys like Sam Ehlinger, Vince Young - they all possess that trait of a winner, you know? That’s what he was preaching the whole day,” Stone said.

“He’s (Beck) an awesome coach,” Stone said. “You look at his track record. Guys like Tommy Armstong … all those guys put up great numbers. Sam (Ehlinger) is the next one of those guys in line. He’s definitely a quarterback generator. He showed us a big slide of all the guys he had. He’s definitely had a lot of great quarterbacks.”

“I’m narrowing it down to I’d say around 10 or so, and I’ll probably put that out pretty soon,” he said.
