    He could have if he isn't. Play devil's advocate and tell us why you feel about this guy's overall approach to his recruitment and how that either translates to the next level or doesn't matter.

So Gerry’s last two or three “Hi’s” were unrelated to any actual action happening on that day. That’s so $9.95 lol

His last one was yesterday morning for Horton committing the same day.

Yes, apparently the "hi" means that an athlete will commit to one of Texas's athletic programs today or at some unknown time in the future.

He made it sound like we have Robinson, Jackson and Lindsey all higher on the board than Blocton, so wonder if they told him no thanks while waiting on those 3 (and Hills).

So if Blocton does commit to them our DT board looks like this

 

Alex January - Committed
McKinley - Spot no matter what
TJ Lindsey
D'Antre Robinson
Jayden Jackson
Melvin Hills Jr

I wonder if Texas got positive feedback on Lindsey/Jackson and the late shift is Blocton kind of being put on back burner?

Gerry made a comment on IT a bit ago that they don’t want to do anything to hurt their chances with Lindsey and that might come into play for Blocton 

Is Jackson the one from Indy that CTJ said might be slowly realizing the valuation isn't there for him and would be more receptive to Texas if that were the case?

Seems like Hills is a take so it’s get him and Janurary, grab Robinson, split the IMG guys, and shoot for McKinley late

Sounds like Lindsey is the guy that could decommit if they landed 5

With McKinley being a take no matter what I could see a play for all those guys and if Mckinley does decide Texas you may lose one of those guys but that is a good trade off IMO. 
 

5 in the hand is worth more than 4 in hand with 1 in the bush so to say.

 

 

This would be a really good DT class if we don't land McKinley:

We got a source off.  Sam Spiegelman has long had his Gipson pick on Texas and has never wavered and continues to say he still likes Texas.  I believe he even increased his percentage on it.

A lot of time between now and the 22nd.....We all know Roach won't change that until Gipson is signing his LOI.

This would make sense then. Blocton was going to spurn Auburn a week ago.

More likely Robinson, allegedly. Could be anyone, but if they have 5 and got McKinley in late, I would bet on Robinson to cut bait.

Or if McKinley made 5, I should have said.

To he fair, he committed to a time. He then decommitted and committed to a different time.

Yeah, he said that we were not going to endanger the Lindsey recruitment with Blocton. So I guess that tells you where he was on the pecking order and how they currently feel about Lindsey. Don't forget Hills is still floating out there as well. Landing 3-4 of that bunch would be gruntling. 

Nyier Daniels to Georgia. Guess they’re buying up all the OTs.

What is sark even doing?  I was told errbody and fuck the numbers

I'm kind of okay with that. Some of those guys are going to start looking around. And we will already know the dollar figure needed. Baker to me is the must have recruit on the OL. We just need 1 in addition to him to round out the class.

Guess they like the recruit all tackles and develop into guards method because they seem to take 3-4 OT’s every year.

That or they just expect 1-2 of them to portal after 2 years, which is probably not a bad strategy.

Annoying we couldn't make inroads with him but oh well

That's 4 tackles committed to Georgia in this class. I'm not a pussy for mentioning this though, I'm not worried about the offensive line recruiting.

 

In his latest Whiparound, WIltfong talked about the Aggie pool party and being in on a bunch of top recruits (attendees likely to be McKinley, Bussey, Wingo, etc.).  Gag.

He did reiterate that he liked Texas for Wingo (Sark, development and history with receivers, etc.).  He said Wingo will be visiting Tenn, Miami, Aggies, etc. so far from a done deal.

Well we've had 7 commits since then and a whole lot of thick smoke around uber bluechips like Simmons, Black, Mack, McKinley, and Wingo, but other than that it fucking sucked.

I’m coming to Houston in the next few days to see my Oak Ridge buddy. I’m interested to hear from him about why Texas couldn’t connect with these guys.

A million percent committed. That's a lot.
