2020 Texas Longhorns Recruiting Thread

That being said, who was Whittington's strength coach in HS and how dare he carry that kind of DNA around.

IT notes from today on Bru and Whitt:

RB:

"The first thing I heard was "Jordan is fast as [bleep]." For someone known for his quickness, build, and fluidity, that's encouraging. Expectations are he'll carry himself well in pads, but still, everyone wants to see it. He'll be hit early and often by defensive players anxious to test his mettle. Athleticism isn't in question, neither are his hands. Will he drop his shoulder and run it up the middle? We'll see."

WR:

"Bru McCoy was the first name mentioned. Sources have been high on he and Whittington since they arrived, now they just want to see how they respond to physicality. With Collin Johnson out for the spring, McCoy has been working at XWR (outside boundary receiver). There's still a good chance he plays HWR (slot) next season. All the same stuff to Whittington applies, even being fast despite being known for other strengths: size, fluidity, and quickness."

As long as its functional muscle.
I dont give a crap what they look like or how much they lift.

The kid from OU last year that looked like a fat slob, that almost tapped out in the 40 m dash and who had limited reps...
Well That kid had a great first year at tackle in the NFL. think he dropped to the 2nd or 3rd round as well.
I want players.

I'm pretty sure his S&C coach is his brother who is also the S&C coach for Joshua Moore. If you seen pictures of his brother you would understand the DNA is legit.

It is amazing a HS kid can look like that.
No doubt he was a player in HS.
Did everything. I like versatility. They can find where he fits in best.

Cuero Gold.

Fairly certain he was trained by his brother. He’s fairly active on Twitter and is a trainer for more of the general population I believe but he’s huge. Makes Whittington look small-ish...

I highly doubt Whittingtons going to back out of a challenge of physicality. He and B.J. Foster are going to be 2 trains colliding...

Shaka's buyout is 12 mill, damn. Probably not going anywhere.

LSU fans getting uneasy as this investigation may reveal a huge cheating scandal.

Basically a charity hospital fund being used for recruiting and the LSU Board allowed it.

Agreed. I think you need a certain type of coach who knows how to manage and coach a team that relies on one-and-done players. Shaka didn't have to deal with that too much at VCU.
