Best case scenario:
Bonney
Jamal Adams
Edwin Freeman
Solomon Thomas
An OL not yet known
Of course the likely scenario is we only get Freeman out of those guys, but we could go to 27.
I absolutely love this guy.

Keep in minder there is an extra scholarship available because of Jones' transfer.
2015 OL Patrick Vahe
Rumor out there that he committed today but nobody has confirmed yet.
24/7 reporting ATH Kevin Shorter mentioned Texas gave him a lot to think about today, but no word if he's still being recruited as an all-purpose RB or as a DB. His decision is scheduled for Friday, August 2nd, and it will come down to A&M, Arkansas and Texas.
Update on 2015 DE James Lockhart of Ennis (24/7):
“Texas is probably No. 2 on my list behind Texas A&M,” said Lockhart. “This visit helped today though. Coach Giles told me some important information. It wasn’t just him, it was the whole coaching staff. They let me know how important I am to them. They basically told me I mean a lot to them and they mean a lot to me. They showed more interest than the last time I came here. I like them a lot.”
“I feel like Texas and TCU are showing me the most interest,” he said. “Those are the only teams where I’ve had 1-on-1 talks with the head coaches.”
“I feel like it’s something I can fit into to,” Lockhart said. “I feel like I could come in and help the Texas program. It’s similar to what we run in high school. In my school we’re multiple, but Coach (Oscar) Giles was talking to me and told me they run a defense similar to that. He said if I come I’d be a strong defensive end, like I normally play right now.”
“I plan on being back,” said Lockhart. “They told me I can come to the Oklahoma game, so I plan on coming to that.”
Quotes from 2015 QB/ATH JW Ketchum from Fort Bend Marshall (24/7):
“You can say the visit helped Texas’ chances for me,” said Ketchum. “It seems like every time I come here they top it with something different (than before).”
“Texas, Texas A&M and Baylor in that order,” he said. “Those are my schools.”
“They’re recruiting me as a quarterback all the way,” Ketchum said. “They told me to just keep doing what I’m doing and it will all pay off.”
“I have a great relationship with them,” said Ketchum. “I feel pretty good about Coach (Larry) Porter and Coach (Major) Applewhite. They feel like I have that spark that they need. That same spark they seem in Vince, I guess they see in me and feel like I can bring it to their program.”
“I’m going to slow things down a little bit and take it slow,” he said. “I want to weigh out my options and take my time with making my decision.”
2015 OL Patrick Vahe, Earl Campbell and 2015 OL Maea Teuhema
I sure do love Polynesian offensive linemen. I played one year of JC football with a poly who went on to have a 13 year NFL career. He was so damn big, the first 300+ guy I ever witnessed run a sub five 40
HornsNation reporting the 2016 Manvel duo of WR Reggie Hemphill and S Deontay Anderson received official offers yesterday. Both attended the June 9th summer camp and were "approved" for offers at that time.

breaks me up to see earl campbell using a walker....
Is the walker permanent? I thought I read he was getting some treatment a while ago.
Update on LB/S Edwin Freeman who was not able to attend the Texas Stampede (24/7):
“They’re still my favorite,” he said. “No one else. It’s them, then Texas A&M then TCU like always."
“I wished I could have made it down for that event this weekend,” Freeman added. “I always have a good time at Texas, but I wasn’t able to. I’m sure it would have been a lot of fun. Luckily I’ve seen it down there a lot though.”
“It might (happen),” said Freeman. “I could take one (an official visit) during the season to check them (LSU) out.”
“There’s still a chance I might go ahead and get to get it over with before we begin our season,” Freeman said. “I don’t know for sure yet. If not, I’ll do it after the LSU visit. If I go ahead and commit to Texas before the season begins though, I won’t be taking that visit.”
Quotes from 2015 OL Patrick Vahe after committing to Texas (HornsNation):
“It feels amazing,” Vahe said. “It feels good. I’m very blessed.”
“It was really fun on Saturday,” Vahe said. “Everyone made me feel at home. I just wanted my family to be able to watch me play in college, and that was one of the reasons. I liked the opportunity and I feel like I should be a part of their team.”
“I told them (Texas staff) at the end of the day I was committing,” Vahe said. “It was really exciting. I just liked the way they brought me into their school and showed me around and made me feel at home.”
“They (Teuhema brothers) were really happy that we’re all going to go to college together,” Vahe said. “I’m happy, too.”
2015 RB JaMycal Hasty of Longview reviews the Texas Stampede (HornsNation):
“It feels pretty good (to get a Texas offer),” Hasty said. “I’m excited about it. I kind of had a feeling I was going to have one coming in. I’m just happy about it.”
“It was exciting and fun to get around the coaches and some of the players, and we got to see them work out,” Hasty said. “It was totally different than what I expected. It was nice. It was real good.”
“The running back coach said they thought pretty highly of me and he said they really wanted me,” Hasty said. “They don’t have a guy like me on their team right now. He said they were looking for something a little different and he said I could be that guy.”
“The guys on their team are 220-plus (pounds),” Hasty said. “I’m 180, 185. It’s size, quickness and speed, I guess.”
“That’s who I was hanging with pretty much the whole day, Malik (Jefferson) and Daylon (Mack),” Hasty said. “It was real fun, especially being with those guys.”
“I mean, I don’t know why he (Daylon Mack) feels that way (that Hasty is a lock for A&M),” Hasty said. “I’ll have to see how things play out. I have two more years. The guys these teams pick up, a coaching change -- anything can change.”
“Coach [Mack] Brown, he’s real nice and real cool,” he said. “Same way across the board with everyone on the coaching staff. We got a chance to look at the campus, and the campus is real nice. I loved it."
S Nick Orr of DeSoto talks about leaving Austin without an offer (HornsNation):
“Coach Akina said he wants to get to know me more and that's probably what they're going to do,” Orr said. “He said he'll be in touch. He didn't say exactly when but that he'd be in touch."
"He liked that I play bigger than I am,” he said. “I'm physical and I can play safety or corner."
"I don’t think I would’ve switched today,” Orr said. “I would’ve had to think about it, but it definitely would’ve changed things (if Texas had offered).”
Quotes from ATH Kevin Shorter of Newton after the Texas Stampede (24/7):
“Things with Texas stand very highly along with those two other schools (Texas A&M and Arkansas),” said Shorter. “It’s going to be a pretty tough decision I have to make. Right now I’m not leaning anywhere.”
“I’m going to announce on Aug. 2,” Shorter said. “I’m just looking for whatever is the best fit for me.”
“Coach Porter made a pretty strong one (impression),” said Shorter. “He showed me a presentation about how I can help their offense. Coach Porter is a great guy who’s down to earth and he’s going to tell you the truth. He’s not going to beat around the bush.”
“Texas really showed me how I can help their offense out,” Shorter said. “I can be a part of a good school and graduate. I like how they’ll help me if I don’t get my degree, where I can come back and get it. That’s a great feeling.”
Fun fact of the day...2015 RB JaMychal Hasty's mother is the second cousin of Earl Campbell.
