Well, I don't know what I was expecting when I decided to visit this thread this afternoon, but based on some conversations I'd had earlier, it certainly wasn't this absurdity. I debated just clicking out, but fuck it, I like being contrarian. It will be interesting to see how it sorts itself out.
Texas feels good about:
Dorbah
Rogers
Collins
Johnston
Washington
Robinson
Thompson Jr
Obviously they're apparently alone in the belief that they will land Robinson based on today's updates from steadfast recruiting wizards Jason Suchomel and Mike Farrell. I'm fairly certain the stuff I relay here has a far higher hit rate than Suchomel over the past decade+. This is that lazy fuck's first time to meet many of these guys. Anyway, the issue remains that at some point, Robinson has to pick up the phone and commit to his position coach somewhere. If that happens with Drayton, it will be the first time he's gotten one of those calls while at Texas.
They like where they stand with Broughton as well.
No one has a clue what is happening with LB besides the Scott kid out of DFW and the ongoing (futile, IMO) pursuit of White.
Umanlymainlyman is a who knows? recruitment, which doesn't sound good.
Ty Jordan is back in favor of being TB2.
If the sequence was Lindberg then Karic, Texas could take 5. If that is inverted, they take 4, and if they can only land one, they probably stop at 4.
Heard nothing about Utah, Missouri or Kentucky DLs, and asked.
They'll stay on Mookie.
Bloodlines could matter all of the sudden again.
They like where they stand with Wilson, but it's a long hustle.
Unless something cool pops up in the fall, not sure there's going to be a TE in this class. Something could pop up at LB as well.
The Bleacher Report, from Matt Hayes of all people, will be shown to every recruit that considers ATM over the next few years, and folks familiar with Fisher don't really see much at this point to think he's on some sort of other trend at ATM than what he did at FSU after Winston.
I'll post on the FB board about what the buzz is on the current roster including the new freshmen.
Sorry for partying? I think plenty here know I'm no sunshine pumper. Now I'm interested to see if Suchomel and crew are actually closer to the truth than anyone else or ... not.
