Shockwaves. Whatever will the Longhorns do? Oh yeah,

So this was the recruit being referenced in that deleted post about "second commit in as many days".

Wow! This is the type of huge commitment this board was waiting for. Top 25 national player in the On3 industry rankings, top 15 in the 247 composite.

Wow. 

So on a 1-10 scale, how far out of left field would you call this commitment?

Let’s see if he sticks when final offers come in. Good get either way though.

The SEC destination for elite west coast recruits. 
 

There’s something about combining elite Texas and California kids to conquer the southeast that makes me feel like a million bucks. They never should’ve let us into their conference.

Where are the other 24? What is this, amateur hour?

Damn!  Out of nowhere!

Do Presley and Henderson play different positions?  I’m wanna be greedy!

I don't have some huge objection to the "Hi's", but they are very very meaningless.

Definitely have the same question... is there even a chance we could wind up with a pair of 5star edge players? What a complete surprise

Definitely agree, but situations like that are few and far between.

OTF just talked about it on the Livestream and basically said Wesley is a SDE like Lance Jackson and Henderson is a WDE like Orogbo.

Don't know what thread it should go into but Oregon is absolutely shitting themselves at this development. The screenshots are very good content.

9 for me. I think damned near everyone is surprised.

They don’t just take commitments for momentum like many schools. They’d push back on him committing if they didn’t feel great after fully vetting him. They know they’re in this against Oregon, OSU and potentially the imbeciles at USC, so they’re not naive on what it is going to take to sign him. No reason not to feel good here.

That’s a big get, D line recruiting is not fucking around.

Y’all remember when everyone was worried about Kenny baker’s recruiting ability?  I remember.

Wonder what this does with Carlton.  Is more of a SDE at 260 lbs.

His Oregon commit video featured him jumping in a pool with Lanning.

There's something so ironic and so delicious about the fact as an institution we spent our entire existence striving to keep the SEC out of Texas. It was a huge source for the resentment of A&M joining the conference after it was seen we were "partnered together" trying to keep the SEC out. We felt a bit back stabbed. Not that SEC schools had no success recruiting Texas before, but A&M's entrance opened the floodgates.

So in the best if you can't beat them, join them sort of way, we join the SEC as well, and now we've quickly started drinking their milkshake. 

This season in recruiting has in many ways been my lifelong ideal. Yes, I always loved when we dominated recruiting the best athletes in Texas and won with predominantly Texas high school rosters, but I always looked at national recruiting powers and wondered why we couldn't do that as well. I am a bit stunned at the current shift. I always felt like we could if we really tried, but it's been a master class in terms of a systematic approach. From the staff working their tails off visiting schools across the country, evaluating players, being selective and strategic in terms of who they bring in on visits, managing the NIL piece. It's a wet dream come true.

Regarding the SEC, I keep having that The Watchmen reference run through my head. "I'm not trapped in here with you. You're trapped in here with me!"

Think back to where we were at DE when Sark got here and where we are now .

Wesley should repost the same video only this time in reverse.

I try to forget a game plan that had Joseph Ossai trying to cover CC Lamb, or whatever circus act was going on at the time.

can someone post the original video with Sark's head on Lanning's body?

I like SL Xpress’s idea better.
