2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

[primal defense]

Carlos was quoted in the Lubbock article last that he would probably end up at UCLA. If we do have room for him, UCLA would be the team to beat.

 

[Mike Garland]

Strickland will visit UCLA and Texas.

 

[Hiphopopotamos]

Strickland will visit UCLA and Texas.

UCLA?  Figures.  Guess its only fair though - we give them Strickland and they give Texas Collin Johnson.

 

[Juan]

Strickland has already OV'd to TTU, UCLA, Cal, and TCU

He has one remaining OV

Gentry, Johnson, Strickland and Clarington.

All between 6'5 - 6'7

We are going to need a group photo of this 4-some standing together

The potential to wreak havoc on modern defenses is here

Think to 2016 and 6'5" Collin Johnson.    Yowzers.

 

[Juan]

Gentry to J&J

Meet The Miller

I'm gonna go ahead and say if we get Miller we will win 9 or more games next season. The OL should be better even if they aren't with a QB that can run like Miller they don't have to be great. Let's hope he can get here soon and work on his timing with WR's. If we do get Miller I would think Strong/Watson/Wick are already working on a different offensive scheme to work.

I would love to have another tall 6'5 WR as in Strickland playing at Texas

just a follow up on yesterday's Braxton Miller conversation. 

Higdon confirmed today that BM is not the big surprise he's been alluding to for a month or so.  He also added that BM is too much of a risk with our current QB situtation.  Said he might not even be able to throw until last July because of his hurt shoulder.  That certainly puts a new perspective on wanting BM...

 

[shotime73]

so what is this big surprise that hes alluding to????

 

[North Texas Golfer]

From what I can gather, it's Richmond, Mack, or Murray.

Unless it's someone else.

I know, I know. I should charge money for that kind of inside information. Or at least start a newsletter.

Well, after thinking it over for all of a few seconds, I decided that I like the people on this site so much that I won't be charging anything for these occasional nuggets and gems

You're all welcome.

Especially considering Braxton was injured on a non-contact short throw.  no telling if it will ever completely heal.  I think Texas needs more certainty than that.

lol how about  a t-bone steak lol and lobster? lol

 

[Juan]

so what is this big surprise that hes alluding to????

here is the wording again --

"As many of you know, I have eluded (sic) to something big in the works for some time now. It is going to happen, I can promise you that and this could be the only time you ever see me promise anything with regards to anything recruiting related because I just don't do that. That is how strongly I feel about this situation. 
 
There have been lots of misinformation about what I originally said, so I want to go over it quickly. A surprise is coming and when it happens everyone on the planet will know what I was talking about. That is the only thing I have ever said about it."

 

[shotime73]

hmmmmm

 

[shotime73]

and i was just thinking on the Strickland decommitting from TT..I was saying to myself "and kliff went through so much hard work baking Mr. Strickland a nice birthday cake too..." woww

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Bummer dude

I was already envisioning our NBA front court team of 6'7 Zack Gentry firing outlet passes to 6'5 Carlos Strickland, 6'4 Gilbert Johnson and 6'6 Devonaire Clarington

subsequent edit - I originally misread Mike^ as saying "somewhere else....."

Thus, the future All-NBA aerial circus is still possible

No love for the 6'9 Nickelson? He's a shot-blockin' fool!
