2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

[bbdude]

Texas will sign a monster class in 2015 from a numbers perspective (could be as high as 30).

Current pledges:

Some of the guys Texas will push hard for:

• Kendall Sheffield -DB, (Thurgood Marshall, Missouri City, TX)
  
• Demarcus Lodge - WR (Cedar Hill)
  
• Soso Jamabo - RB/ATH (Plano West)
  
• Malik Jefferson - OLB (Mesquite Poteet)
  

From a QB perspective, guys like Kyler Murray and Kevin Dillman are guys that are getting looks (along with guys like Jarrett Stidham). Dillman is Heard's successor at Denton Guyer. Doesn't hold an offer from Texas yet but he will get one eventually.

I'm not one to be tied to star rankings - but we really need to get some big time talent out of the 2015 class. Hopefully Strong can grab one of the 5 stars from here in Texas (out of the 4 total, two are already committed - LSU & AtM), and work the Florida pipeline to get a big time recruit from out there.

Of the top 17 rated players in Texas - AtM has commits from 6 of them. Strong better get to work.

CRS seems to have a high motor when it comes to work. The effort will be there, I suspect.

I hope we can hang onto Vahe now that the Te^$(# brothers switched to LSU.

 

[bbdude]

If I had to guess how many hours a night Charlie Strong sleeps I would guess 4 or 5 max. He's dialed in and doing work. He has a lot to overcome/do to get us back on top but all he can do is grind it out day by day.

 

[bbdude]

I hope we can hang onto Vahe now that the Te^$(# brothers switched to LSU.

I think we have a good shot but if Florida State offers him then I would be getting a little antsy. He'll pull a ton more offers this year.

Unfortunately, UT is not in Jarrett Stidham's top 10

 

[Topstarr]

Coach Strong is a hard worker and so are his position coaches.....He will get us some good players for 2015.

 

[hoskins5]

Do we make a run at daylon Mack? I know he's committed to aggie, heard he grew up a horns fan.

Texas A&M has already held their first Junior Day (Jan 26).

 

[diehardhorn1988]

Texas A&M has already held their first Junior Day (Jan 26).

Thanks, I assume that is what Lanfear was down for. Glad to hear it's our turn. Hopefully we are able to lock up a bluechip and get this class rolling.

 

[Topstarr]

Need junior days here for some threads and information
