October 15, 20187 yr It's pretty telling that even with our on-field success we don't seem to be back in contact with some former high priority guys like Dylan Wright. Pretty telling indeed.

Pretty telling indeed. I agree conceptually. That said, I think they found suitable alternatives to Wright and moved on, so who knows if they'd even take a phone call? Sounds like Texas will take up to 6 WRs not including McCoy or Powell if they can get Washington, Lewis, and Higgins. Powell would be an ATH and McCoy would be whatever he wants to call himself. I don't think they will get McCoy, but a 7-5/8-4 regular season for USC where Helton won't be fired but isn't generating enthusiasm is possible and would give us our best shot, especially if we put up 10-2 or something. I also don't think Texas is getting Higgins. If we coulda, we woulda, IMO.

I doubt the Bama offer was committable. Now that I live in the Denver area, I catch a lot of CU Buffs' games. Laviska Shenault Jr. is awesome! Like Freshman All-American awesome. He would be playing a lot if he had gone to UT. Also, the Buffs' QB Steven Montez from El Paso would have been the best QB at UT since Colt if he had been given an offer. I think that he was kind of fat when he got to Boulder, but has dropped weight while still being a bit of a bulldozer on running plays, but his passing and leadership are better than everyone through to Sam. He is two years ahead of Sam, so he would have easily beaten out Swoopes, Heard, & Buechele by the 2016 season and Sam would have redshirted in 2017.

October 16, 20187 yr Such at OB with some quotes y'all might like Spoiler I asked Lewis, if he was considering decommitting, if I would be wrong for saying it looks like Texas is the team to beat. "You would not be wrong, no. It was amazing," Lewis said. Spoiler "They're definitely number one. I think it’s going to take a lot for a school to show me more than that, have more to offer," Johnson said. Adding Lewis, Powell, and Johnson to the calculator brings us up to the #7 class with 21 commits. I'm still not sure if we end up with all three but thought I'd look ahead.Â

October 16, 20187 yr Are numbers getting tight? At 21, with still needing 4 lineman and still a few other guys deciding, this would be. 27-28 class.

QUESTIONS: 1) Is this the original ACL surgery?  ...or... 2) Is this surgery to clean up some scar tissue from an ACL surgery? It’s hard to say because sometimes things get misunderstood by multiple people along the way. My guess from reading that is that he had a large meniscal tear that they wanted to repair first.  That is a more delicate recovery that they wanted to get started before they fixed the ACL. Whatever the case, 2 knee surgeries is not ideal obviously.Â
October 16, 20187 yr ACL doesn’t always affect a career, but plenty of guys are a step slow after finishing rehab. It sounds like Catalon had a combined meniscus tear and ACL tear but only had the meniscus addressed at his first surgery. This is not standard. It can happen in rare cases when the MRI doesn’t show the ACL tear, guarding limits the physical examination, and only surgery reveals it. More than one knee surgery within 6 months can lead to more stiffness long-term. It sounds like Catalon is a good fit at nickel without another comp available— probably worth taking a flier. Call it circa 80% that he gets back to pre-injury level.
