An offer from the whole state, wow.

Also, based on Deep South location and class needs, I'm thinking DL if it's real. Only other FBS offer is Coastal Carolina.

The University of Texas is the flagship school of the state, lest anyone forget.

His basketball page says SF and 6'4"237 lbs. He seems shorter and heavier in that film. Also, he didn't seem athletic enough for edge. He seemed like an interior guy.

Gerry Hamilton has an article on it:

 

Can someone post it?

 

The Texas Longhorns have offered 2023 defensive lineman Jonathan Davis out of Mississippi.

Texas defensive line coach Bo Davis extended the offer to the 6-foot-5, 300-pound senior riser Saturday afternoon.

Inside Texas made a couple of calls to sources in the state of Mississippi this evening. We received word that Bo Davis is scheduled to be at Lawrence County High in Monticello, Ms. next week to meet with Davis.

Davis is also tentatively scheduled to make an official visit to Texas January 28.

The second signing day for the 2023 class is February 1. Inside Texas will have more on Davis as it become available.

If he’s that big, holy shit.

That's one hell of a hidden gem. Hopefully the regional schools aren't paying attention and we can reel him in without much fanfare

Good to see UT will have him in for an OV the only weekend left before NSD2.

And if he’s even moderately successful we get to hear the broadcast crew repeat that fact 1000 times in a big game.

His twitter account was made in 2022, likely when his recruitment started off. That being said we are by far his largest offer to date. Only Coastal Carolina, Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College and Southwest Mississippi Community College.

I'm wondering if none of the big programs expected him to be eligible?

So, a big defensive lineman that destroys people, with a handful of minor offers, pops up out of nowhere two weeks before signing day. Never on anyone’s radar, then we offer.

I’m sure there’s a catch somewhere, but if there’s one coach on the staff I trust to evaluate prospects at their position it’s Bo Davis. 

Since the December signing day started, every year you have late bloomers get their time in the sun prior to the Feb. signing day.

That will only increase with the portal window in December opening up additional roster spots and position needs.

Or maybe we don't think he would be eligible, but want to get to the front of the line if he does ok at a juco.

Wasn’t it Josh Jacobs like 7 years ago who popped up out of nowhere in Oklahoma and in a span of about 2 weeks before signing day went from Northern Iowa offers to a Bama offer.

Yes. He only had 9 offers and received them all in January 2016. Visited Missouri and Alabama and obviously committed there on signing day.

He looks like Kramer fighting children. Wonder what his season stats look like.

300 lb guys that move like that don't really just come out of nowhere like that.

So they are probably 6'3/5'8/5'11

19 total tackles last season and 7.5 sacks. I think all of that is in the first couple of minutes of his hudl. 

There are always going to be huge dudes who resist playing football for whatever reason and then get in the game late and wreck shop.

How bout we stop quoting the seizure gif

The 2023 class is sick and this staff has earned the benefit of the doubt when it comes to recruiting so if they like this kid it's cool, it's still WILD that Texas offered a kid without so much as a recruiting page a scholarship 10 days before NSD2. It's not a criticism at all. Just kinda crazy circumstance.

What’s the catch.  I don’t believe a 6’5 300lb kid who can move would have zero FBS offers this late unless there was a catch.  Him being in the sticks is not a reason.

Agreed. @Elmer_Fudd, Bugs Bunny isn't on Surly, so you don't have to post strobe light gifs.

Everybody backed off because the weight gain fucked up his wingspan.

Not really. Basketball measurements would have been junior year, right?
