Saying there are 11 on each side ignores the redundancy of positions. You don't need 15 OL to be 3 deep, more like 10. 

And as for Jones, if there was no one better, then that means he was in the top 60 players and someone who the team needed to stick around and play/develop. The coaches would have never wanted him to portal out because they needed him to play. 

I see why SHA hates math. 10 players are 3 deep at 5 positions.

A  B  C   D  E starts F  G  H  I J are back ups

Looks like Hand one player backups three positions etc.

As for as Jones it realy means Tom did not recruit enough OL.

Notes from TFB today:

1. There are several spots at several positions that are already filled in this class, but have not announced. Apparently, the UT staff wanted to create momentum in June, so they asked them to wait.

2. They mentioned Parker Livingstone penciled into one of the WR spots. Texas is hard after Dubose (SA) and Gekyle Baker and in the thick of it with Micah Hudson. Tech feels very good at this time as far as their positioning with Hudson. Hudson's dad played for Tech.

3. Expects Duncanville's January to be in this class. Things have picked back up with Zina Umeozulu. They think Cruz and Uini are in the class already.

TEAM STUFF

1. Staff is smitten with what they have in Anthony Hill and Liona Leaf. Lefau has a bright future in front of him. 

2. This may be Byron Murphy's last season.

3. Thinks Malik Murphy transferring will come down to who wins the job next spring.

4. Grad transfers don't have the April 30th deadline like other players, with regard to the portal. They said keep that in mind.

5. Malik Muhammad improved every single practice. He will see much time next year.

Lots of good stuff. Thanks for sharing.

For Texas to bring in a grad transfer, we would also have to have a grad transfer out. Right?

First # 1. IT keeps saying Texas is slow playing recruiting in anticipation of an extraordinary season.

Second # 2. Can he play himself into a day two pick?

Second # 3. I hate to say it it, but if Murphy transfers after next season, things are going as planned. Ewers has a good enough season to get drafted in the first round and Manning has accumulated enough practice time to vault ahead of Murphy because of his name.

5. MM will be an impact freshman. From what I am reading he is already pushing for the starting position.

First #3 if Cruz and Uini sre in , where does this leave the Calir. boys that IT says Sark will wait for?

If Umeozulu is back in favor, does this mean Simmons is LSU bound?

With Wesco's sister reported in portal, push for him and Hudson.

We will take more than two OL.

No, it doesn't. It just means we're doing well with Umeozulu.

Wesco and Texas have not had a good start to recruiting.

I know that sounds legit, but I don't think UT would attempt to drive an empty class through even half the season, and half a season would be what it would take to convince most people of an extraordinary season.

I think you'll see a nice list of recruits come aboard in June.

I would still hate losing Byron Murphy.

IT saying DE Colin Simmons of Duncanville is in Austin this weekend working out with NFL players like Micah Parsons.

He said he may make his way to campus at some point for the state track meet.

Hamilton at IT added that Simmons is likely to sign with the NIL agency Athletes First, and they're run by a Texas grad.

If more than two then the two everyone expects to portal will do so.

Two DE's of this caliber would be great.

Best WR in Texas (by some lists) should go hard after him. Offer his sister.

Come December we will know a lot more..

I'm definitely keeping an eye on Baker since he hasn't scheduled an official.

I could only see “slow playing” from the standpoint of not taking lower ranked players because we want to save spots for big game hunting. 
 

The whole idea sounds a bit aggie.
