2022 Recruiting Board/Thread

[Sirhornsalot]

From Bryce Anderson

“The four schools that are sticking out to me the most right now are Alabama, Texas, Texas A&M and LSU,” said Anderson.

Anderson was hoping to announce in early July but is now pushing that time back.

“I originally had it for July 4th but i'm going to push it back due to my high school team making it to the Texas State 7 on 7 tournament,” said Anderson. “So that means I won't be able to take all of my official visits, so it'll be after I take all of my official visits.”

I appreciate what Sonny Dykes has done at SMU, but I don’t understand why you would go there over Texas with a Sark ran offense. I guess it’s a chance for playing time 

 

[DBOOK23]

Brennen Thompson showed up in Texas gear and there's a chance that Banks is on commit watch. Hopefully Sark can close. Jordan Hudson committing to SMU would be one of the most surprising recruiting decisions that I've seen....it would also mean that Texas should have hired Samples instead of Coleman.

Maybe an explanation on the RB situation, per IT.

RB Jovantae Barnes of Las Vegas, NV was on campus earlier in the week and is seriously considering Texas due to Sark, the offensive scheme and school prestige.

Sark and Coach Banks are leading his recruitment, and he'll start official visits in the fall.

Who was saying that on Banks?

 

[TFloss32]

On OL recruiting...IT saying Texas is "all in" on Cole Hutson (Frisco High) and Connor Robertson (Austin Westlake) as interior prospects.

Where it gets tricky is possibly having to decide between Jacob Sexton (Edmond, OK) and Cameron Williams (Duncanville).

Williams is supposed to be at OU this weekend, and a Duncanville source told them there's belief Texas has a slight lead right now.

If Williams doesn't fall in love with OU, the Texas side feels confident it can win him over on his official.

 

[Slimer]

You take both Sexton and Williams IMO and figure it out later.  We only took 2 OL last year.

Give me 4 of those WR's, both OL prospects and please, oh please give me both CB prospects.  Get both of those CB prospects and who gives a crap on who is playing S (not really, but the point is that both guys have the potential to be day 1 picks in the NFL). Defensive changing prospects right there, imo.  

There is one sure fire way to bring Texas back into the CFP playoff picture and that is to keep talent lile that from going out of state.  Same thing goes for Ewers, but that ship is on the horizon and getting smaller and smaller every day.  Luckily, they have a Maalick to step in.  Players like Harris and Brooks need to stay.  Pitch that to them.

Jordan Hudson committing to SMU would be one of the most surprising recruiting decisions that I've seen....it would also mean that Texas should have hired Samples instead of Coleman.

Look at it this way – He will be much easier to flip from SMU than he would have been at OU. He's caught up in the moment. At some point, he'll realize he really wants something bigger.

What you DON'T want to happen is Samples ending up at OU for some reason.

 

[TFloss32]

OrangeBloods saying OL Devon Campbell of Arlington Bowie wants to get to Austin next weekend for an unofficial visit.

He will be on an official to OU this weekend.

I’m glad we’ve got Andre Coleman. Offensive coordinator experience and really good recruiter. I see a lot of players mentioning Coleman both players on the roster and recruits. Nothing at all against Samples but if Sark liked Coleman enough to keep him then I’m sure good with it. 
This staff that Sark has assembled is very high level IMO. Way better staff top to bottom than we have had in a lot of years.

Bruh, welcome back.

Any realistic guesses on the two " silents" from last week?.

Bite your tongue! As fickle as the football gods have been with Texas, the mere mention of this should be avoided.

Hutson, Cheeks, and Sexton.  Two of those three.  I think Hutson is definately one.

Hutson and Sexton would be my guess. Could also be Derrick Brown.

Other schools have cooled on Sexton. Hearing they think he's got a low ceiling.
