Pretty sure UT is recruiting Tyler Scott at CB. But we all know the UT coaching staff like to recruit versatile DBs who can play multiple DB positions, so Tyler Scott might fit that description.
As I suspected & predicted in this thread last week, Gerry Hamilton is now reporting he doesn't expect the UT staff to push for DT Justin Benton despite bringing him in for an OV.
I remember in the Spring or Summer that Bruh Man was saying that Jayvon Thomas was the superior SOC DB over Malik Muhammad. And that he was jealous that Aggy got Thomas & felt meh about Muhammad as a prospect.
God damn that turned out to be such a bad take from him. LOL!
IIRC Overshown & Tucker-Dorsey were listed at around 220 LBs and Blackwell was listed at like maybe 196 LBs. So yeah Mo Blackwell, Trevell Johnson, & Derrick Brown all need to put on weight in the offseason.
Blackwell isn't a spin-down project. He was a spin-up project. He played LB in H.S. & was recruited as a LB. I never liked the coaches trying to spin him up to Safety back in the spring ball seeing as we would have a plenty of scholarship DBs in Fall Camp & UT lacked of LB depth. Glad to see Blackwell is moving back to LB fulltime.
But anyways, I agree with your main point UT should probably bring in an experienced portal LB instead of just relying on true freshmen & younger underclassmen who still need to put on some weight in the offseason.
According to TFloss, IT is reporting that Texas is dong in-home with USC WR commit Ja'Kobi Lane. Gerry Hamilton says their remains a "quiet confidence" that they can flip him, and they're all-in on doing so. Texas hasn't set up any home visits with Kyle Parker or Jaden Greathouse.
Cook was a composite 5-star despite the fact that none of the individual big 4 national recruiting sites had him as a 5-star. So I'm guessing he lost his composite 5-star because Rivals dropped him in their new rankings. It wasn't individually taken away from him.
