Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls

247 had him as a 3*, but he was a composite 4*

247 had that right. He was looking at a total mechanics rebuild. Maybe he figures that out, but I think the move to RB was the best thing for everyone. Idk that Roschon could have maximized to the level he did anywhere else. 
 

Edit to add: Ian Boyd couldn’t stop pining for a move to lb. IB, we got one of those, that’s a David Gbenda.

  • Finally can tell my aggy story.    Have a good insight into this kids recruitment and I’m still laughing about his visit to aggy. Dude gets his player host (I’ll let y’all find who that is) and

    How do you think this is helpful? Not being a jerk, just asking y'all to keep your shit together and use common sense. In any event, I know for a fact that nothing ever happens with Texas until a

    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.

How can you flip someone that's not committed?

That guy is getting his information from the same guy that has Texas running 3rd for Gipson.

To be fair, that guy isn’t even getting his information from the same place as the Steve Witfong who is about to flip his CB to Texas.

If the staff trusted a recruit enough, would it be fun optics to have them show to the aggy pool party and then commit to Texas the day or week after?
Why not same day? If you're gonna get savage may as well go all in.

Yes, with the apartment pool, recruits and whoever is the new pit master directly behind him.

and toss a payday candy bar in the pool at the same time for good measure.

Yes, it was Albert Hollis who happened to be on his OV the same weekend as DJ Williams.

If I am not mistaken, it was Hodges Mitchell would beat Hollis’s ass in the weight room on his OV.

Holy shit, I completely forgot the Grant Tisdale vs. Roschon Johnson debate.  At least one of the 995ers (EJ?) was really upset at that one, IIRC.

It was EJ. Tisdale was a classic DFW maxed-out camp + 7v7 superstar, so EJ was fanboying all over him.

Funny part is it was a debate over who would be a great QB.

What I had heard was Redding threatened him.

One commitment that could pop at any time is Omeozulu. It’s a matter of Texas clarifying some things for the family. When that happens, a commitment will follow or suddenly he’ll be trending towards not Texas. 

If Zina didnt have a brother already on campus would Texas really be recruiting him?

Yes. He’s not some spare. He’s being heavily recruited by OU and the Aggies. There was concerns about his size but he has apparently bulked up

No (reverse) Katfid, but I would have never connected that is the same guy from his 247 picture

That's because his hair migrated from the top of his head to chin.

On the radio?

What Jeff is really bitter about is that he isn't working at On3, I'd wager. Who knows, that might change over time.

I heard Redding threatened the coaches when they tried to move him to linebacker.

I can’t wait for smaller schools to start trying to call for a “cap number” on NIL spending. We will shoot that down quickly but I’m surprised this hasn’t already been brought to the table. Saw the quote “busey will be an overspend” and wondered why are kids still 4 and 5 stars they should just be 1 million, 1.2, 100k or so players.

We won't shoot it down, the courts will. 

 

Jeff Howe is the Mike Roach of non-recruiting football stuff.  

Minus Roach's - relatively - insightful prose, sparking personality, wit, and humor.

There are concerns about his frame being able to add good weight. There are also concerns about mediocre junior tape. His upside outweighs those concerns, hence the regional brands putting in the effort for him.

man EJ thought Tisdale was the future and Texas coaches were idiots to not take him. 
 

EJ was also bad at his job. 

https://gofrogs.com/sports/football/roster/grant-tisdale/15414

He's at TCU now - his fourth! school. But if he didn't play at SLU, there's no hope at TCU.
