Summary of EJ's periscope:
- EJ's coming to us live from a Starbucks parking lot (naturally).
- Not a ton of Texas targets in Atlanta, but there'll be plenty in New Orleans. True Buzz, All In, etc. will be playing.
- Kelee Ringo is trending very well to Texas. EJ feels confident in his crystal ball. Texas is still the only school Ringo's visited multiple times. Lots of program ties. RIngo will visit Washington, where he's originally from, and blOU as well. But Texas is in the best spot. Ringo's mother works for an airline so he can fly as well. He visited on his own dime.
- CB board: Ringo's numero uno, Jahari Rodgers is next on the list but blOU has the edge there. Kitan Crawford's made a few visits and is definitely a take. Joshua Eaton is there as well, he's blown up with offers. Both Texas and A&M stand well here. Then is Watts, who is rawer but has the potential. Great testing times at the Opening. Kimber isn't mentioned as much, most people are pegging him to A&M but he's taking his time. Great pure corner. EJ wishes Texas would go after Lorando Johnson but they're not.
- Pass-rushing board: #1 target is Prince Dorbah is the top priority, Texas stands well here.
- No Interviews taking the week off, it's been hectic for EJ and Mike. New episode coming tonight.
- Both the Duncanville guys are trending well to Texas. JaQuinden is getting won down by all the Texas questions, he likes LSU but Texas has done a great job with him. CTJ was thought to be an A&M lean earlier, but they haven't done a great job recruiting him and Texas now has the edge here. CTJ is a smart kid who will tkae his time with the process and could visit more OOS schools down the line.
- Shadrach Banks prediction: Banks is hard to read but this looks like a Texas-A&M-blOU battle. Will be a long recruitment.
- EJ would take Zach Evans over Milton or Bijan Robinson. He's the best RB EJ has seen in his career. EJ's never managed to see Kendall Milton. Robinson has been very impressive in the offseason events EJ's seen.
- Chad Lindberg, Hayden Connor, will be at the Spring Game. Still very early.
- Damien George will have big implications for Evans. Texas still has work to do here. Still no reason not to think Bama leads here, and Evans really wants to play with George. If Texas lands Lidberg and George, that would be it for OL recruiting.
- EJ likes Whataburger better than In-n-Out.
- EJ doesn't think Troy Omeire knows yet where he'll go. Wouldn't be surprised if he comes here or if he goes to A&M.
- Not a lot going on with Elias Ricks.
- Dwight McGlothern could have a Javonne Shepherd-type recruitment.
- Kitan Crawford could be our next commit, or perhaps Alfred Collins. EJ has no clue what's happened with Collins' recruitment.
