July 30, 20196 yr Back to more important matters. Watched some hudl film on the Thompsons since they’re next up. Jerrin has good range which I expected, but he’s a better hitter/form tackler than I expected. He looks good.  CTJ is about what everybody has said. Great downhill defensive player. Reminds me a bit of Landon Collins. Could be tackle machine as hybrid/box safety. Film and awesome offer list contradict the 247 ranking of #72 in the state this year. These two guys plus Bijan will make for a great week.Â

Rivals and ESPN rest on their laurels with earlier evaluations and end up being correct on the kid, while 247 just over-thinks it and fucks it up. CTJ is a stud and he a great fit in this defense.Â

I think they themselves have said it recently, focus on the score not the rankings when you are at that point. i mean, at this point he is certainly better than the #70 something (72?) ranked player in the state. assuming he has a Sr year like his Jr year, he probably jumps up and we hear more cries of BOMC!!!! from people ignoring the fact that 3 months ago he was just outside the Top247 150 and 12 months ago he was in the 50-55 overall range. side note, when is the next planned Top247 update generally? do they do one during the season?

CTJ looks like shit in WR v DB drills, but that shouldn’t matter because he’s never going to be asked to do that. When you consider that he’ll be playing Joker or Rover in our defense, he’s a great fit and he’s going to be a stud.

July 30, 20196 yr A few 2020 notes from IT Credit to the staff for its persistence this cycle battling through some difficult recruitments and having a productive July and likely beginning of August. Already in for the month are defensive end Vernon Broughton, outside linebacker Prince Dorbah, offensive tackle Andrej Karic, and defensive end Van Fillinger. Texas could potentially add safety Chris Thompson Jr. (we're watching Auburn) and running back Bijan Robinson (we're watching USC). We don't want to take anything for granted, but things look good on both fronts. This class has been rockier sledding than initially anticipated; along with the hits came some misses in the form of safety Bryson Washington, safety Lathan Ransom, and corner Jahari Rogers. Landing bigs and missing on DB's isn't the most Texas thing ever, but one positive development is the offer and press for Lufkin's Jerrin Thompson. The 6-foot, 180 pounder would tuck neatly into the program as a nickel or field safety and we feel Texas is in great standing. - Vernon Broughton returned to campus with his mother and sister, Asia. This was more of a basketball trip for Asia, but Coach Giles spent most of the day with the family as they toured around. The Broughtons are extremely happy with the decision. - Alfred Collins didn't make it to OU this past weekend. Along with our own intel, confidence is waning with other schools. I don't think that would be happening if he was going to take his official visits this fall. We think he knows where he's going. Having recruits in his ear of late seems to be helping.
