Had the pleasure of speaking with a long-time customer today. He and his family are more or less sorta royalty at TCU, so he rubs shoulders with higher ups and coaches over there.

He straight up told me today that we're getting Duce.

My friend is a solid football fan, but really a novice when it comes to recruiting. So him even bringing Duce up was a surprise to me. I asked him how he knew this (or based on what) . . he said he overheard coaching chatter this week.

That is good to hear, but IMO, if he doesn't/didn't come in for a UOV this weekend then I don't think it's gonna happen.  That is just me though.

Anyone have any clue at all if he actually made it in?

If Texas does flip Roberson and J. McDonald stays at S, this is what I'm tracking on the backend for the D next year.  Am I missing someone?

After Spring, I could see any combination of Crawford, Brice & Jordan enter the portal.

CB

JR

R. Watts; J. Barron; G. Holmes - 3

SO

A. Jordan; J. Guilbeau, T. Brooks - 3

RS-FR

X. Brice - 1

FR

M. Muhammad - 1

8 Total

S

JR 

J. Catalon, J. Thompson, K. Crawford - 3

SO

M. Blackwell - 1 (Could be LB)

RS FR

B. Allen, L. Turner-Gooden - 2

FR 

D. Williams; W. Roberson; J. McDonald? - 3

8-9 Total

DB Total 16-17

Thanks for the breakdown Tex. After watching the bowl game, I hope Jordan doesn’t exit. I thought he played well. Also wouldn’t be surprised to see Crawford leave. Don’t remember Brice doing much. Seems to be deeper overall than it’s been in a while. At least from the rankings. Hopefully they develop.

From what I've read this morning, he's not making any visits this weekend.

No, I meant the 2023 season

TFB's update makes it sound like Roberson will be a Horn by end of his visit.

Very nice flip this late on a player we were pretty high on early but seemed to be totally out of it after he committed to TCU.

This staff has shown that they keep plugging away at their main targets regardless of commitment status.

[Eastexhorn]

If Catalonis healthy he paired with Thompson , will make a dynamic duo at safety. Backed up byCrawford and Taaffe.

CBS should be Watts and Brooks or Holmes. Backed up by Austin or ?

Spur Barron backed up by Guilbeau.

DBS should be greatly improved. Have heard that Holmes might be fastest of the DBS.

S Warren Roberson of Red Oak will make his commitment this Friday at 8:30 a.m., per IT.

Texas looks good.

Evidently national signing for D1 football begins Wednesday but my understanding is that they can sign anytime through April 1, 2023. But they better not sign on April Fool's day. I'm just saying.

Correct, April 1st is the deadline.

It's rare guys don't sign by the first Wednesday in February, but it happens.

Hamilton at IT saying this morning that the recruitment of TE Duce Robinson is the perfect example of Sark and his staff recruiting through the whistle.

The Horns are still in the conversation and one source even believes it's a Texas/USC battle.

Apparently baseball is still a factor in his decision and he may not sign this week.

And no idea if this is a factor for Robinson, but something to chew on.

Someone on Bobby Burton’s podcast said IF… repeat IF Catalon is healthy, he’s the best player on our defense.  Bobby seemed incredulous, and mentioned Ford…. but his guest dug in and pointed out that Catalon was all conference in the sec as a freshman.
