He is the best recruiting guy, particularly for Texas, by a mile. He is a national guy for On3 as well, so if you would prefer to go listen to Ketchum go ahead.Â
July 20, 20223 yr Just thinking about some things regarding the national ranks and some shit is flat out absurd. The state of Alabama represents roughly 1.5% of the country's population. The consensus rankings have 10 Alabama players in the top 81. 12.35% of the top 81. 10% of the top 100. I realize more kids play football per capita in the south and that Louisiana/Mississippi/Alabama have a higher amount of players per capita that come out and sign LOIs than anywhere. That all considered - get the fuck out of here with that shit. I see zero percent chance of those 10 guys all being properly rated. For comparison, Texas represents about 8.7% of the US pop and has 18% of the top 100. CA is 11.8% of the US pop and 8% of the top 100. Minus IMG Academy guys, Florida is 6.4% of the US pop and 18% of the top 100. I know there is a deserved skew to the South and Texas in rating football talent. It's just an amazing imbalance this year in Alabama relatively-speaking. Bama is slightly less than 10X skewed in football against their gen pop, where Florida is less than 3x and Texas is just above 2x for comparison.Could be fuckery, but also could be that looking at total pop is misleading. Why_not_both.gif More useful to look at the pop that is producing most of the players, which would be areas with black people in regions where high school and college football are important culturally. That will cause LA,MS,AL,FL to proportion up.

He gins up his twitter follows by...how many that will make a material difference to whatever NIL deal awaits him when he hits the campus of his choice? Eh. I've got other reasons for thinking this isn't really a direct correlation, but I'm not sure that's for here. On the other hand, I'm sure many kids will certainly try that strategy...but good luck being on the OL.Â

My theory is based on actually picking Texas. If he's not then he's only made himself more well-known to a fanbase (sponsor consumer base) that won't be interested in paying him for his likeness. And it's also based on trying to think, or not think, like a high school senior to be.Â

The no visit part is what bothers me about this. Up above, I said that it would not make sense for him to commit without visits. I apologize to the Board. I forgot that we are dealing with 17 year old kids. But would the Texas staff even take a no visit commitment? Does he even have an offer?
