I don't see a name associated with this;  don't know whether it's a CB addition/deletion, a confidence % change, or what.

 

If it is a CB, then, in South Austin's Mom's favorite words ... "Who put it in??  Can I at least get a name, dammit???"

Bobby said the percentages factor in the whole industry, so that change is probably just from Fong’s CB

See, that's where you are wrong, she doesn't care what your name is.

Fong’s update:

Spoiler

There has been some changes atop the leaderboard for St. Louis (Mo.) University receiver Ryan Wingo with Georgia and Tennessee sitting in pole position at different times. The Vols are still a mainstay in this one while the Bulldogs are moving down. However, now I give the edge to Texas with Missouri coming on strong following this past weekend’s official to Columbia. The Longhorns had him on campus again two weekends ago and blew it out of the water. The next scheduled visit goes to the Vols July 26-27 and then Texas A&M that weekend. Penn State and Miami will get officials in the fall. Michigan who got a June official is another program that remains in the mix and Kansas State may sneak into this one as well.

Sounds like Fong is happy shifting his crystal balls over time with new information, unlike some guys. Which isn't surprising given how protectice he is over his percentages. We'll see what this looks like after the Vol visit, I guess, unless Wingo just shuts it down. 

He’s in the Wingo Fishtrap.

Sorry

 

Reminder:

- JJR went on an OV to TCU

- He's originally from Texas;  spent 20/21 @ Fort Worth Brewer, was a Freshman All-American there

We need to convince Nyier Daniels to hold off since Georgia seems to be getting Uini, Calhoun, and other OT's.

Otherwise it's looking like Baker or bust.  Unless they want to convince/think that Ivey is an OT.

So TCU mod thinks they’re out, tOSU told him to get lost since he took the OV to us after silently committing to them, and Michigan has basically conceded he’s gone. That cover it?

Also, Jeremy Clark is a bitch.

Any recruit that goes to Georgia probably just wants to rape chicks and get away with it. Until the program faces discipline this should be assumed and communicated to all recruits

Are we expecting anything today?

And we will come back the next season with " lets hunt and kill Billy Lucci"  

Talk about a ratings blockbuster. 

 

Seeing as i got a weeklong vacation the last last time i stole a Bill Hicks bit. Let me state now, im not threatening to kill anybody. This is a joke. So the bitch ass that lodged the complaint last time can fuck off.

Hey look, I’m happy Fong thinks we lead. But Jesus, that’s shakiest explanation I’ve ever seen him from him. He needs to knock that confidence level down to a 4.

If he says anything other than his dick, I’d be shocked.

247’s rankings are ass this cycle, they don’t even have Simmons as top 5 in-state. That is completely indefensible.

How do we lose too recruits in Texas to the fuckin clown of a human being Dabo?

Wesco is not the best player in the state, that ranking is nonsense, but Wesco’s sister was a soccer player at OU. He was considered a lock there until OU fired their soccer coach and his sister decided to transfer.
 

It was too late for us by then though, Wesco had cream and red goggles on for much of his recruitment, so I doubt there was much of a relationship with the Texas staff by the time the OU stuff went down.

What @Lonestar88 said, but also the recent national championships, program with a player-friendly reputation, and total domination of a P5 conference all help too.

Some notes from Bobby and Gerry’s recent recruiting vid.

-  5 star Ryan Wingo trending Texas.  Mentioned Sark has a very good feel for this recruitment and is selling 3 open starting spots next year and life outside of football, things Wingo is looking for.  6’2, 215 pounds and can run.  Looks like a guy we’ll see be the deep vertical threat to replace Mitchell/Neyor potentially.  Arch also recruiting him hard.

-  Expects JJR to commit to Texas.

-  Feels like Texas is in a strong spot for Baker and they feel it’s more Texas and Ohio State than Oregon.

-  looks like Ivy is next for the guard spot after Saina picked USC.

-  expects Calhoun to pick UGA soon and then expect Texas to pick it up with Weston Davis and thinks Davis would want to visit. 

-  Texas/ou for McKinley and driving distance is a factor.  Texas has a shot here and is probably leading.  

-  In a good spot for TJ Lindsey.  Says he wants to play in SEC or he would pick Miami.  Parents don’t him in Miami and like Texas.

-  We look good for Melvin Hills and they think he is severely underrated. Ole Miss going hard after Hills

-  January should pick us soon.  Too much Dline coaching change at LSU and dad is a Texas alum.  Similar build to Sweat.  

-  Don’t look good for Robinson, Blockton, Hibler.  Jayden Jackson has been recruited buy Ohio state and their D line coach since he was in middle school.  But also has lots of family in Texas.

I find it hard to believe that there are 26 players better than Colin Simmons in this class. 

https://247sports.com/PlayerSport/Colin-Simmons-at-Duncanville-272580/RecruitRankHistory/?history=top247

247 has always been lower on him than everyone else:

vs everyone else who has him in the top 10:

idk how the top 25 are going to shake out, but i think the bigger issue is that i don't see a world where he is actually outside the top 5 in Texas

Speaking of Simmons, the dude that did the Longhorn podcast did some home work and said that 70% 5 star top 10 national edge rushers have been 1st round NFL picks.  Simmons would fall in that category.

 

Imagine a defense in 1-2 years starting Simmons, Mitchell, Ant Hill, Derek Williams, Manny Muhammad, and Kobe Black.  We’re talking about potential multiple 1st and 2nd round picks here and that’s leaving off a ton of talents guys.  Those are guys Bama, UGA, LSU, tOSU have been poaching for years.  Nice to see Sark be able to get these elite dudes on defense.  We really need to win 10 games and win the big 12 and this program is going to take off.
