Feb Recruiting and Portal movements
- Thread starter weevilcatch
- Start date
Beyond LJ Johnson and David Abiara this is really not an impressive group. I haven't found any updates on Ishmael Ibraham hopefully he'll sign next week.
And don't ignore this other late signee Keithron Lee. From what I've read he could be an ideal fit in SS's offense.

An insider on Rivals just moved his pick for RB Johnson from aggy to us.
Also, DE Reese Leitao (sp) has supposedly left the team.

He was our Einstein. He was supposed to be a neuroscience major. The team gpa will drop a couple of points because of this. Thanks a lot buddy.
We will take a class of 26-28 in 2022 and I would imagine 25-27 in 2023. I don't follow close enough to know for sure, but that is my feeling.
Anyone know how many schollies we have available for 2022 and 2023?
I'm not sure about '22 or '23 but I know we have 9 scholarships available this year. Do transfers count towards scholarships?
Transfers will count against the 85 limit. only seniors who return don't count against the 85 roster.
Well, it appears that RB Johnson is going to aggy afterall. Crystal balls changing to them.
Sounds like we made a quiet run at Cameron Wheaton, but has decided to stick to bama.
Also, there is speculation that Stan Drayton may be heading to the Eagles.

What does he want?
Girls? None better than the University of Texas.
Cars? No problem.
Well if we can't pay him how about a Lloyds of London policy for 3 years?
I've already talked about the night life differences between Austin and College Station.
I mean wth?
Josh Pate, who I haven't really known about until recently, gave his two cents about the transfer portal. He discusses the reality of change and beefing up personnel to take advantage of it. It is a pretty good perspective and worth the 8-minute watch.
Looks like Jaydon Blue just committed. 2022 might end up being a special class. I’m liking what Sark is doing on the recruiting trail already. Now if we can just get sewers to flip back.
I've never ever seen this board this quiet on the first wed of Feb.............
It's kind of creepy..............

So the cow college closes out a top 10 class signing a 5* rb. You know what this means they're breaking all the rules again. Sooner or later they'll be back on probation.
Gotta tell you...feels like a mistake. Best of luck to the kid though.
I saw it differently. Lj had a decision to make.
Would he rather certainly ride the pine for 2 yrs behind Bijan, or possibly 1 yr of riding pine behind Spiller (with a better O line).
How is their OL better when they have to replace 3 starters? One could argue that Texas now has the better OL coach as well.
I believe they have a stronger bench and think their o line will be better.
I certainly agree Texas has a much better o line coach. Still need some strong recruits though. I would bet in a couple of years Texas o line will be significantly better

I don't know about them having coaching staff than us or OK especially OK's offensive staff.
I don't know about them having a better ol than us. Did anyone notice Andrej' Karic and especially Jake Majors at center? And they're both true freshman. And I almost forgot Christian Jones another freshman.
You know a lot of this is fate. We talk about why it took so long to start Bijan Robinson well why did it take so long to start Jake Majors? Was it because they didn't want to bench a senior captain? Imo, here's where the fate comes in. Now against WV and ISU the ol was making some progress. But if you remember after Sam Cosmi quit on us Derek Kerstetter moved to rt and then he had that terrible injury. So CJ moved back to rt which is his natural position. And then Karic comes in at lt. And all of a sudden no more false starts and missed assignment's. And in the 3rdq we dropped 35 on KSU the best quarter
of the TH era. In fact in the last 2 games we scored 124 points and gained over 1200 yards. And the biggest reason was the new ol. And all of this came off of a devastating loss that sealed Coach Herman's fate but not before KSU and CO. And that's why I call it fate.
I just hope that I'm right. I'm sure Coach Flood saw better ol at AL but I hope he sees that Majors, Jones, and Karic have potential. You know now that I think about it maybe one of the reasons SS was hired was that he said he would have a better w/l record in year 1. Fwiw we finished 7/3 and ranked 19 th. Why shouldn't we be a lot better than last year? I doubt if we'll have a better ol than OK but I don't see why we won't have a better ol than the cow college. In year 1.
Like I said fate.

These guys knew exactly what they were getting into and what Texas had and made the decision to come here because they know what they can do and what Texas can become...

Just wanted to put this article out there if you guys have time to read.

Interesting. I mean, they did get that second rate program in the top 4 for the first time in almost a century so he may be right.
Sark is focusing on the walk on program heavily, where diamonds in the rough do appear. Clay Matthew was a walk on at USC and then became a first round pick. If anyone watched the State Championship of the Dodge bowl and remember the players from the Westlake side such as the running back that broke for 75 yards and the DB that went up and did the one handed Odell grab. Michael Taaffe and Zane Minors will be walking on. Michael Taaffe was committed to Rice and Zane Minors was committed to Yale.
Other walk on's Flower Mound's Bert Auburn is arriving as a walk-on kicker. Quarterback Cole Lourd, a three-star recruit from California, will walk on as well.
