2024 Recruiting Board/Thread

I agree with you.

Is it fair to say that Colt had a better career.... but Vince's Junior year is unparalleled? Before Vince's junior year, he was an incredible athlete / runner / leader. His junior year he became an incredible QB. The pass - run threat was seemingly unstoppable.

I agree with this. Vince never had over 300 yards of Total Offense in a game until his 21st game as a Longhorn. He just kept getting better and better. That junior year is the stuff of legends.

A lot of people would argue Colt's best year was as a sophomore.

Let's hope Quinn keeps improving like Vince did.

IT saying this will now be rescheduled.

Makes sense with the playoff game. Just need to get him to campus.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

IT saying this will now be rescheduled.

Due to the HS playoffs, the visit would have been "rushed". Texas made the call to reschedule it and give him full attention

Let's send up a prayer for Trey Owens this week as he and his team face off with Galena Park North Shore. lol

It will be interesting to see how he does.

 

[Eastexhorn]

Correct me if I'm wrong.... but Texas was so happy with their LB haul last year, that they only offered 2 or 3 this year - and were okay with not taking any. He was one of the ones that had an offer.

Offer board shows 14 LBS with offers.

Well... I was wrong!

Colts worst year was his soph. His Junior year he was in beast mode.

 

[Steelhammer]

With receivers who weren't that great, too.

In my mind, VY is the best to ever play QB at Texas. I know the names I have to compare to, and I don't flinch saying that.

Dare we say best college QB ever!

 

[MBHORNSFAN]

Pittman has been retained for next season. Might hurt with flipping Bridges.

Bridges is not a take at this point.

IT saying S Xavier Filsaime made it to campus today with his father, and they wouldn't be surprised if he returns once more before the early signing period.

He plans on being in Gainesville this weekend for the FSU game.

Xavier Filsaime, Texas Longhorns, Safety

Also competes in track and field. Ran 100-meter times of 10.52, 10.59, and 10.75 as a sophomore in Spring 2022. Added 200-meter times of 22.38 and 22.49 and...

If he returns again then this is serious. It will be good for him to see Florida go down again.

He didn't specify if this was an official or unofficial visit. I assume unofficial and it also sounds like it was a quick visit, but again, he didn't really specify.

If there is a talk of a return, I would think the return visit would be used as an official. I'd expect a big official visit weekend (in importance, not size) on December 9th.

 

[Eastexhorn]

Bridges is not a take at this point.

Unless it is a numbers proablem , to me I see no reason why.

Maybe he Bridges a gap if we miss on some others?

Please accept my apologies in advance.

Ummm...VY led the nation in completion percentage his last year at Texas (regarding arm talent). He was NFL offensive ROTY and a Pro Bowler. To say Vince wasn't an NFL quarterback is ridiculous...

Agreed. But we saw it for one year. He was a pretty poor passer years 1 (especially) and 2. Vince had a strong arm, but his Uncle Rico delivery made it deceptively strong. I believe the much maligned Greg Davis deserves a hefty standing ovation for the development of Vince and Colt.

Vince was greatness. His greatest attribute may have been his ability to lead. I can't think of a better college football player.

Unofficial.

Colt's second year was his worst, inarguably. His third year was his best.

 

[TB14]

Sorry, that is correct. I got the year wrong. I more meant to say he took a step back his senior year while Vince kept progressing.

 

[TexCoyote]

Georgia getting 3 of them

Agree. VY started seeing big success when Mack and Davis decided to stop trying to mold VY into something he was not. Once they let Vince be Vince, he took off.
