Notes from the Gerry / Bobby OTF Stream - June 22, 2024 (AM)
Kade Phillips
Good things behind the scenes, he and family wanted this offer; would like a chance at corner - open to safety, if that doesn't work out; Texas or LSU decision; Derek Williams is his host (guy from Louisiana, who chose Texas)
Jaime Ffrench
Continue to hear positive things; had a call this AM - blue blood program thinks Moore and Ffrench ultimately end up at Texas; Mom, Dad, sibling, couple of coaches with Ffrench; Texas had confidence starting weekend, not heard anything to change that; Bobby - looks like Texas has a great shot; Gerry - Mom really liked her last visit, Jaime mentioned that, Mom flashed Hook 'em stepping off the plane, really excited about football/academic combination at Texas
Madden Faraimo
At one point, was thought to be a lock to ND; Texas/Notre Dame competition; Mom and Dad with him, Nansen attached at the hip on visit; really big kid
Michael Fasusi
Hearing good things about the visit so far; Gerry - now think it's Texas vs. OU; Texas has been in a favorable position for a while, now need to close it out; Gerry - Texas feels pretty good, but knows it's a battle w/ three big regional schools for a top tackle; Goosby hosting Fasusi
Brandon Brown
At OU this weekend; Mom is w/ him at OU - very interesting; barring something this weekend, Gerry still thinks it's Texas/LSU; same three schools as Dominick Williams; visiting Tennessee, but they're not in it; OU may try to muddy the waters against Texas, if they don't get in it themselves
FSU visitors - Kevin Wynn / Myron Charles / Javion Hilson
Big weekend for FSU; Wynn and Charles are two of their top four; FSU has thought they have been the favorites for those two, since spring; with Zion Williams not coming, these visits become even bigger for Texas (Wynn/Charles/Brown/Sharma). Javion Hilson - interesting if Mom continues to say she wants Hilson out of state.
Alabama visitors - Josiah Sharma / Dijon Lee
Josiah Sharma - committed to Washington (DeBoer and Courteney Morgan - that'll be the tough call if Sharma doesn't commit to Alabama). Dijon Lee - wild card - expected to commit June 28th. Had a better than expected visit to Texas. Nansen recruitment. Also fighting Bama for Lockett, Townsend, Kaleb Edwards.
Oregon visitor - Dakorien Moore
Host Evan Stewart. But Texas vs. Ohio State. Texas remains favorite.
Ohio State visitor - Dorian Brew
Ohio State vs. Texas. Oregon/USC thinks they're in it. Mom in Ohio State Hall of Fame, visiting with Brew. Almost committed in Jan. Up there for spring break. Ohio State has #1 and #2 corners already committed.
Texas A&M visitor - Riley Pettijohn
Throwing kitchen sink, hard sell. Texas has been in a pretty good spot for a while; A&M knew they were working from behind, going into the weekend. Ohio State in it too.
