Hookfin listed at 6-6 270 4.6. Wonder about the speed but could easily put on the weight.
Herman said this evening he expects QB Sam Ehlinger to be ready to go for OK State.
Are you still counting Shepherd?
I don't think it will be more than five in this class.
24/7 reporting WR LJ Humphrey will be serving some sort of suspension in the first quarter against OK State.
Would rather Emery go to Bama and Cain go to LSU and we get Sanders
Lots of balls in the air, especially with Cain insisting on making a December decision.
I agree getting Sanders is the ideal scenario.
Holland from 24/7 is hinting at another commitment going down this weekend.
He's been writing very positively about both 2020 OL Logan Parr (San Antonio O'Connor) and 2020 OL Chad Lindberg (League City Clear Creek).

I like six, with #1 and #2 getting a first round bye, or eight.
Nobody will ever be 100% satisfied, but I feel like eight would at least cover all teams deserving of a le shot.
For example, an undefeated non Power 5 like UCF gets their chance, and you don't have a situation like Auburn last year where they beat both Alabama and Georgia by double digits, but were punished because they lost in the SEC le game while Alabama sat at home and watched.
Also, an undefeated Notre Dame may be getting in this year without having to play a conference game.
Changed it back.
On RB Noah Cain...24/7 is saying RB John Emery of Destrehan, LA is trending hard towards LSU which has caused a big shake-up in his recruitment.
If LSU lands Emery, the biggest obstacles for Texas would then be Auburn and Ohio State.
They believe a win over West Virginia and an impressive visit to Austin that weekend would put Texas in the driver's seat.
Quotes from JUCO OL Myron Cunningham of Fort Dodge, IA (OrangeBloods):
“I kind of knew I was probably going to get it (UT offer) because of all the contact he (Coach Hand) was giving me over twitter and text messages,” Cunningham said. “But it was definitely nice to get it.”
“Right now, I’d say that most of the schools that offered me have a good chance. I’d say Texas is up there, one of my top schools right now,” Cunningham said.
“Arkansas is definitely up there,” Cunningham said.
“Just because they (Texas) were one of the first bigger schools to hit me up. I think that says something about them, about how they’re willing to stick their neck out there for me, keep me going,” Cunningham said.
“It was academics and a maturity thing. I wasn’t taking things seriously at Western Illinois,” Cunningham said when asked what led him to Iowa Central. “I’ve definitely matured off the field a little bit, got some coaches’ interest. They think I have the ability to play right away, which is what a coaches are looking for right now.”
“At Texas, he (Coach Hand) said they’re losing a few starters. They have a few young guys that they’re not sure if they’re ready to play, so they want me to come in and have an immediate impact.”
OrangeBloods asked JUCO LB Caleb Johnson to respond to claims that Oregon is his top school now.
“Overblown,” Johnson said. “At the end of the day I’m going to go where I best fit and where I feel I can be my best.”
I agree with this. 2020/2021 is loaded in state on the OL. They’ll probably take bigger numbers then and the staff is taking that into consideration this year it seems. We need a center prospect though.
Whew...thank goodness.
It's EJ, so grain of salt, but good news anyway. Just keep winning.

That particular report was from Roach.
