On3 had the latest on LB Madden Faraimo today and he's locked in two official visits to Notre Dame and USC for November.

He is looking at getting to Texas on November 23rd for the Kentucky game, but that's not set in stone yet.

[TFloss32]

Simmons from On3 has put in an Auburn prediction for DT Joseph Mbatchou of Loganville, GA.

The father of former Longhorn DB Kenyatta Watson has been an integral part of his recruitment for Auburn with his ties to Grayson High.

Another CB prospect Coach Joseph will see is Notre Dame commitment Dallas Golden, who is also from Tampa, FL.

The staff will attempt to get him to Austin for an official visit, but he will be a tougher pull.

Per OTF, Sark will stop by Lewisville today to see OL Michael Fasusi.

They believe this one will come down to how badly Fasusi wants to be at Oklahoma as they're staring at a 6-6 record, a new OC and questions about their OL coach being retained.

Coach Gilbert hit Mesquite Horn yesterday to check on OL Lamont Rogers, according to OTF.

He should be considered an A&M lean currently despite his commitment to Missouri.

OTF is waiting to see if Sark will go by McKinney High to see LB Riley Pettijohn.

A few NIL related notes that IT is hearing...

- "As you know, there will be a salary cap but it’ll differ based on conference. We’re hearing the SEC and Big 10 will have $15 million caps. With Tennessee currently holding the highest payroll ($18 million), they’ll have some work to do. The SEC and B10 will have higher caps than the ACC, Big 12, and others, because the two main conferences in college football also hold almost 80% of the TV deals."

- "With the new additional 20 scholarships and the removal of walk-ons, expect bigger programs to use those 20 on a de facto practice squad, similar to the NFL, where the players can be moved up or down the roster depending on injury needs, etc. You could see a program grab 10-15 4th- and 5th-year seniors from HBCUs, G5s, and the Ivy Leagues."

- "Another interesting tidbit about the SEC is the conference provides a list of what each player makes at each school in August. They don’t know each other’s bids, obviously, but once they are enrolled, the other conference teams know what they make."

I guess I'm dumb and don't immediately see why that even factors in, unless the logic is allowing more money to be spent by the teams on TV more frequently.

Set a cap and let everyone spend what they want as long as they don't break that ceiling.

The majority of the best players were already going to those schools.

also doesn't help when sark keeps running RPOs with a QB that isn't a keep threat

[pgardn]

Imo its a number of things and what you guys mentioned.
Its a outside zone blocking scheme which is more difficult and because there is more east west you gain a lot or nothing or get minus yardage. It varies much more than a scheme with tighter fits and manning up more. We do not have a 3 or 4 yard plan and a cloud of dust.
The loss of Baxter really hurt. It is quite apparent imo that Wisner gets tired and beat up. Blue is just not a tough runner at this stage, and the freshman has been injured and apparently is the worst at pass pro.

The most disappointing part is pass pro. Which also involves the QB moving slyly in the pocket since Ewers is not a threat to hurt you running for the vast majority of the game. If Ewers feels uncomfortable, he wont step up and he wont throw the ball away. He goes turtle mode and drops his head ready to lay down. He readily takes chunk losses in yardage. This is what everyone will be looking for every game from here on out. How does he feel in the pocket today. I would always apply pressure by playing tricks on the oline just to get Ewers uncomfortable asap.

I do think if Ewers gets an open field to his right on the run he is very good at scanning the field and making super accurate throws like he does on bubble screens.
Any other observations you guys have would be appreciated. Like where you think he ends up in the draft.

Not so sure he would start. He had a good opportunity this year and did not take advantage. Best of luck to him. Might be good for both parties to have have a fresh start.

[chubbs]

not a shocker. dropping passes and lazy blocking pretty much made him useless in this offense

[TFloss32]

Which is a strange game plan for defenses unless they don't believe Ewers is really that good

I think teams are taking their chances with Texas' inconsistent vertical game, especially since Ewers has returned from injury.

Smart and Georgia obviously took one look at the Oklahoma film and knew immediately how they would attack.

He definitely looked more comfortable overall against Vanderbilt, but I don't expect defenses to go away from that strategy unless Ewers can open it up early and the slow starts stop happening.

I think Golden would need to go pro for Cook to start next year.

Moore seems to have the slot locked down now, and Cook isn't starting over Wingo.

My guess is the staff will be going after a talented Bond replacement in the portal too.

I personally think Golden will come back to increase his draft position. I think the starters next year will be Wingo, Golden and Moore.....unless grab another Bond type from the portal. Locket, Ffrench, Livingstone and Butler (who I'm very interested to see) will be fighting for time.

Good point.
Seems the last three games? started with a batted Ewers pass and an interception.

Ewer’s movement in the pocket does not make it easy for our OTs (the OTs have had blow byes as well)

[pgardn]

IT on WR Johntay Cook II leaving the team:

"This is Occam's razor: Lack of playing time affected his attitude, the attitude further affected his playing time. It just spiraled. Move on."

Yeah I think this might indeed be the simplest explanation.
Sark plays hardball. But not so much at QB as he and Ewers invested a lot of effort on making things work.
Im kinda sad because I think Manning had a bit of a connection with Cook. (Small sample though.)

[texbound]

I remember an interview with Moore this summer and he talked about how he was going work hard and do all the little things to earn his time. Fast forward to today and it's apparent all that hard work paid off for him. He said he was going to start and he is. That is the kind of player you love

[Biily Ray Valentine]

Not the 1st time a highly rated player doesn't work out and it won't be the last. He stayed out of trouble and until recently was very vocal about his love for UT. Wish him luck and hope he turns it around.

Good observation, and doesn't sound like Cook is necessarily in that category.

No matter the real reason, attrition is inevitable on a roster filled with blue-chips fighting for playing time.

Factor in NIL and portal additions, it gets even more complicated.

Give Sark an extra week.
Tremendous play calling, clean pockets and a confident Ewers.
2 dropped TDs and no problem. If those 2 TDs were completed the stat line would have been ridiculous.

Also liked the way Gibson went Vertical on the running plays.

OU, Arky, and ATM all Ws would be really nice.

This was an extremely pleasing performance that has been missing. And it can get better.

Quotes from Littleton on his official visit this weekend (247):

"It was good definitely being around the players, getting their perspective on the program, learning the culture, seeing it," Littleton told Horns247 on his way out of Austin. "Like my mom says, you can't fake culture, so just getting up here and seeing that, it was good. They had a great win, obviously. Hearing things they talked about in team meeting transfer over to the game, that was nice as well."

"Coach T-Joseph," Littleton said of what prompted him to want to come back to the Forty Acres. "He came up to my school and offered, obviously. I wanted to check out the culture, the environment, see what the environment was honestly like. The stuff he said to me, he thinks it could be a place for me, a fit, defensive scheme-wise. I just wanted to come up, see it for myself, and learn more about the program."

"It was a couple of there commits there," Littleton said. "A lot of the guys they were just saying their perspective on why they committed. Obviously they want me to come, too. It was nice speaking to them and speaking with some of the players on the current roster as well."

"I'd say Texas vs. Michigan right now," he said. "A lot of schools have reached out — Bama, Georgia, Penn State, Auburn, all those types of schools have reached out. I definitely have to go home, recollect from the visit, talk to my family, then just go from there."

"Just talk to my family, narrow down the things," he said of what's next. "What I look for in the school, we have to figure out which school has that. It has to be a well-rounded program. Just go from there. If I need to take more visits, if not. Like I said, a lot of schools have been reaching out, so we're still figuring those things out."

"It kind of does revolve around football — the defensive scheme, the opportunity, the culture, the environment, the nutritionist, the strength and conditioning program, things like that. Also the environment. It would be nice to live in Texas with the warm weather coming from Florida."

"I definitely have to go home and talk to my family, figure those things out," Littleton said.

'27 five-star TE offer Mark Bowman of Santa Ana, CA discusses his recent visit to Texas for the Florida game (247):

"My parents and Kayden Dixon-Wyatt," Bowman said of who joined him on the trip to Texas. "And then I met up with CJ Lavender. He goes to Mater Dei too. And then an old friend of mine, Stone Turner. He goes to Union [high school] in Oklahoma. And a bunch of my dad's friends came, like twelve people came (on Saturday)."

"We have family and friends out there and a lot of them got to come and go on the field with us so it was a cool experience for him to be able to show his family what we get to do."

"It was pretty cool. It was a packed out stadium and obviously the game wasn't too— I mean it wasn't close so it wasn't the best game but it was still pretty cool to see how they use their tight ends and stuff like that."

"It was pretty cool to see that. It's good to see that they utilize him vertically and up the field, he doesn't just run flat routes and stuff like that so that was good to see."

"I got to talk with Gunnar (Helm) for like three minutes. Basically just took the picture with him and said 'good job' and stuff like that. And then I got to hang out with Spencer Shannon and Brandon Baker too."

"It was really reminiscing about Mater Dei stuff but then I also asked him more personal questions like what's the difference between there and the high school experience. And it was good to talk about that. He told me the real. How coach Banks is, how practices go, and just what it's like being there."

"So Friday we got there at like two, I think. And we could only talk to them for a little bit but it was coach (Jeff) Banks and then coach (Chris) Jackson the receivers coach. So they came out to talk to us and some of the assistant tight ends coaches, but they were just going to their team movie so we only got to talk to them for like thirty minutes. But we just wanted to check in and get some gear from the place across the street and just wanted to stop by."

"And then Saturday, we obviously went to the game. We got to see a couple of coaches before (the game) like coach Jackson, and then after the game we saw coach Sark. Talked to him for like eightish minutes, and then coach Banks and coach Jackson all came up and we got to talk. And that's when I saw Gunnar (Helm) and Spencer (Shannon)."

"And then Sunday we came back in the morning and we went over film with coach Banks and the expectations of what he would see me doing there and went over basically all of Gunnar's film like him scoring and the deep plays and then just kinda hung out. Saw Brandon (Baker) before I left and then toured the facilities as well. They took us around on the golf cart and showed us around campus."

"I mean, I will say that's the best visit I've been on. It was a really good visit I can't lie. They showed us a good time."

"It's the only college town I've ever seen with Rolls Royce's everywhere and Lambos, it was crazy."

"They're number one for sure. That visit was very impressive. I really like coach Banks and everything the tight ends said about him. He'll be hard on you, but he'll still coach you and that was something I really liked but yeah it was a really good visit for sure."

"Next week I'm going to the Tennessee at Georgia game and that'll probably be my last visit (of this season) so it'll be good to compare the two."
