2018 Recruiting Board/Thread

Wasn't it someone here, a mod or a poster, that stated while Tom's class last year wasn't all that great, he was positioning himself to make the 2018 class great? I sure do seem to remember that and so far, they have been spot on!

If none of the other guys claim that quote, I will!

SHA told us that. He heard it from his buddies.

Of course his buddies hang out at Dominique's Atomic bar and Grill.

Off topic. Thought I read on TFB that Buck Majors is retiring due to medical issues. He is supposed to hang around and help out with videos and other stuff.

There are reports circulating on this, but I hasn't been confirmed yet by the University.

it was on the Shag so it has GOT to be true.

 

[texbound]

I feel disappointed when I get out of work and there are no commitments now.

He gone... Also IT guys are reporting it too.

I had serious doubts on Herman's recruiting ability after he managed the worst football recruiting class in history.  

During that time others kept saying he was pro recruiter but I had my doubts.  I couldn't have been more wrong. Now its like Christmas every day.

With 12 commits, we already have more points in the 24/7 rankings than last year's full class.

DMAC...I was the worst offender on here about doubting his ability to recruit. What I would really like to see now is how well he can recruit with a good winning record behind us.

I dont mind a bit saying how happy I am about how wrong I was.

I think Hermann's inability to add a lot of recruits late last year was a reflection on how much last year's seniors had soured on our program.

 

[Lukus Alderman]

I think the only guy who could've saved last year's recruiting class was Saban. Combined with how Strong seemed to all but quit recruiting altogether and three straight losing seasons, there was no way we were going to put together a decent class without a miracle or a magician.

And that's saying something. 😊

I've never heard of the place, but I'm sure it's just full of rat bastards. lol

Yes, I do believe I said that though.

 

[Bear19]

But they are our rat bastards.

Texas just moved up to #3 due to a Penn State decommit per 24/7:

Texas has moved up to No. 3 in the national recruiting rankings.

No, Texas didn’t land another commit. But the Longhorns did jump one spot thanks to Penn State taking a loss on the recruiting trail.

Five-star Harrison (GA) quarterback Justin Fieldsbacked out of his verbal pledge to the Nittany Lions on Tuesday night.

Fields actually holds an offer from Texas, but the Longhorns have two quarterback commits and aren’t actively pursuing him. Florida is trending on the 247Sports Crystal Ball. 

Texas currently has 12 commits and has a score of 226.75. The Longhorns only sit behind Ohio State and Miami in the national rankings.

With some big targets making their decisions this summer, expect Texas to compete for the top spot before the start of its first season underTom Herman.

Chaisson being the prime example. But in retrospect, maybe he did a hell of a job keeping together what Strong had recruited while adding a few of his own.

I've just CB'd Epps to Texas. lol

There's a lot of back story on the Chaisson deal that I'm not sure we can get into on here.
