2015 Texas Longhorns Recruiting Thread

Unless you're a starter in which you're suspended for half a game vs SMU.

we need safeties and he was in the running for a starting position (and at the very least he was going to get valuable playing time). several starters were benched for the first 2 games last season and another was kept out of the bowl game. nice research on your part!

Bedford and Rumph said Texas will spend half of spring in a 4-man front and half in a 3-man, then decide which is a better fit.

For those like me who may have been wondering how the team had been adjusting to their new strength staff.

Quotes from RB Ronald Jones of McKinney North after receiving a Texas offer last night (OrangeBloods):

"It was really disappointing (waiting on an offer) because I had Texas number one. Now with the offer, I've had a lot of schools contact me lately. But because it's Texas, I have to put them back in there," Jones II said. "I'm going to rethink it. Before this, I wasn't as interested as I used to be."

"I can't lie. I am excited. It's finally happened. It's Texas. It's hard not to be excited."

"He said he wants me there, thinks I have a lot of potential. From what he's heard, he said he's heard I'm a great young man with outstanding character. He wants me down in Austin, which is actually my hometown."

Deunte Chatman is one of the best athletes in the state of Texas based on him winning the NIKE Sparq combine with a score of 130.44 and beating Kendall Sheffield one of the best athletes in Texas.He should be heavily recruited as a running back and a linebacker

Are you him or are you a freaky stalker

would more likely be a parent or relative, can't blame him for try to get his name out there when the current system and youtube hit scouting encourages them to do so.

Stated a couple of weeks ago he was his father...

[FkLA]

Hes been hitting up alot of team pay sites too from what Ive heard. Dont blame him but also dont think he needs to since his kid is a legit prospect and not a fringe guy. Either way good luck to both of them.

And what better place to get his name out than on Spurstalk

Sarcasm may seem appropriate until you see the 2014 thread has received over 630,000 page views.

How many of those views are from a recruiter or anyone of recruiting importance?

My guess is zero.

Its odd.
Just leave it alone.

Great athletes don't necessarily make great football players. This is really not the place to convince anyone of importance. The coaches will find him. How about taking advantage of a scholarship, who ever it comes from, and go to class. Post some SAT scores as well.

Jarrett Stidham (5-star dual-threat quarterback) apparently committed to Tech.
