SignUp Now!About a handful of kids in this class that have a lot of question marks IMO. You guys know who they are and we may be better in the long run not pursuing these kids. Multiple decommits and such usually result in Justin Watkins and Jordan Elliot type players.Texas misses the cut in Marquez Beason’s top 4. LSU, Ohio State, A&M, and Illinois. One of these is not like the other.
The Lovie Smith factor. Grew up and played at Big Sandy, strong Texas ties, NFL playing/coaching experience. Plus, he's a heckuva coach though no one will ever know that by his results at Illinois.Texas misses the cut in Marquez Beason’s top 4. LSU, Ohio State, A&M, and Illinois.

So Shepherds two extra inches of height give hive him great measurables vs Green being borderline at tackle? Is that difference really that big of a deal? I'm no expert...just wondering what the major impact is as they are approx the same weight.Shepherd measured in at 6’6, 319 today in Houston. Great tackle measurables.
Meanwhile Kenyon Green came in at 6’4, 317. Borderline tackle measurables. Wonder what his arm length is. Could end up being a guard long term.
Weight is not a big deal in this respect. Connor Williams was starting for us at 288 lbs his frosh year.So Shepherds two extra inches of height give hive him great measurables vs Green being borderline at tackle?

Measurables play an important factor when it comes to a guy being able to stick at tackle. If you are on the shorter side then you better have very long arms and great feet.So Shepherds two extra inches of height give hive him great measurables vs Green being borderline at tackle?

I can see him taking this all the way to FebruaryEJ says Whittington has once again pushed back his decision date to commit.
Like we’ve mentioned before. He’s very indecisive.EJ says Whittington has once again pushed back his decision date to commit.
We are all happy with the 2018 class just weeks ago and now we are all worried about 2019 class and its not even March 1st 2018?![]()
These kids can commit early but there is a long ways to go. On field performance will determine the 2019 class.
Herman and this team needs to deliver on the field.
Don’t think he was there.Did Roschon Johnson not compete at the Houston Opening? Haven't seen his name mentioned at all.
