With the three commitments Horns are moving up the in the standings. # 16 On3 and #49 24/7. Big difference in the ratings.

Then the services agree on 1, 2 and 3.

 
From CTJ today:

"I know people are bullish on Mack. I am not. For one, I think Texas could have 5 DBs before September. For two, he’s a really important recruit for Wilson at LSU.  So Texas and Mack would have to both be okay with 6 DBs, Mack would have to really not be interested in LSU, and there would have to be some found money once he’s on campus for NIL. 

I think Black is Texas and not that far away. I think Davis goes to ATM. Gipson to Clemson. Bridges to Texas. Lair to Texas. Mack to LSU. 

I guess if academics are a big deal, that changes things for Texas and UF in the Mack recruitment. I feel like I haven’t heard much about academics for that one though."

And then later:

"Some thoughts after chatting up some friends across the span of the recruiting realm. 

-Gipson would be an impressive get in that he and his family visited Clemson three times this spring and summer and spent their own money to do it on two of those. That’s usually the team that wins the recruitment. 

-If OSU throws a crazy bag at Baker, maybe he goes there. Texas is prepared to compete within reason and he’s soured a little on Oregon in part because he now knows he can get NIL anywhere and the Big 10 and SEC are far better conferences than whatever Oregon is doing.  

-It’s unlikely that the IMG guy from Indiana is going to get anywhere close to what his camp thinks should be the number. Texas has a great shot here if that’s the case. 

-They’d take 5 DTs and 3 Es. At DT, they probably won’t land all 5 and could have one head elsewhere late if they land commitments from all 5. 

-At E, Simmons, Omeozulu, and Okoye are all takes. They are all weird recruitments. For Simmons, does he pull the trigger soon? If he doesn’t and visits not Austin at the end of July, you’ll know that this one will remain crazy until the end. 

-Okoye is taking visits and the mom is staying home. Predict how that one goes down. No one I know can. 

-I’ve not taken the Ross recruitment seriously, but he has a parent in education and taking Texas seriously because of it. If he commits this summer, it’s probably UF. If he doesn’t commit this summer and visits Texas again in the fall, then we should take his recruitment seriously.

-The Hudson recruitment isn’t over. There are also major red flags showing up. He’s also a WR so one man’s red flag is another man’s “he’s a prima donna WR” shrug. 

-If Texas takes Hampton’s commitment it is to push further back on Bama and a complete lottery ticket. He’s Agiye Hall and they’d need to crack the code for him to be productive.  I’m fine with it, I guess? Kind of also fine with it if they punt. 

-Texas got straight up beat on the Smith recruitment but will keep at it. 

-Texas will get 3-5 more commitments between now and next Sunday barring something weird. 

There’s probably other stuff that I can’t remember without prompting. "
