Texas Recruiting

[AgScoopf]

Sydir Mitchel is probably headed to Texas as of tomorrow. That's a pretty good get.

I would be shocked if Hicks ended up at Texas, but these days meh, who knows. Hill I would have been shocked about a month ago, but I have a couple of inside connections on that one. Texas has gained a lot of momentum. A month ago I would have said 80-20 chance for the Ags. I would lean more towards 60-40 now. A&M gets the last official before he commits so hoping for the best there. I was happy Mohamed pushed it back a bit to after the A&M pool party to give it one more shot, but that one seemed like Texas momentum as well. We will see. Sometimes these kids react...then pause and go back to other places and remember how much they liked those places. Momentum is a powerful thing in recruiting and you certainly have it much like A&M did last year.

I just saw that Mitchell is 6’6” 345 pounds and is only 16 years old. Good gosh!!!

Man Sark and staff like big boys… there are some really massive dudes coming in

Pretty sure a couple of the massive OL guys that just committed are only 16 as well. In fact, one of them is still 15! Just can’t remember which ones right now.

 

[Texasguy115]

Anyone know what time Mitchell is supposed to announce today?

 

[Oldmanastro]

With Downs 7 5*, 15 4* and 6 3*

Texas really needs a good season to close the deal. 7 wins will be ugly and 8 wins is the bare minimum. I believe 9 wins with no clock cleaning losses will close the deal and perhaps even strengthen Texas’s position.

Is he a lock to the good guys?

 

[AgScoopf]

Meh, nothing is a lock these days, but it seems like all things are pointing that direction

 

[KChorn11]

looks like another one soon

 

[Oldmanastro]

Anyone know what time Mitchell is supposed to announce today?

Aaaaaand he commits to the good guys!

 

[Oldmanastro]

And perhaps more to come.

Sydir Mitchell is a really good get. This staff is putting heavy emphasis on the lines on both sides of the ball. The game is won at the line of scrimmage.

We have been on these boards for many years complaining about the OL/DL and it just boggles the mind how many years and coachings staffs didn’t get it. I mean if the HC didn’t make it a priority, you would think knowledgeble OCs and DCs would intervene.

 

[KChorn11]

They collecting just some massive dudes on both sides of the ball.

Texas appears to be really cleaning up on recruiting after the Manning commit.

If ou would have had a DL to match their OL the last few years, they’d been purdy damn good

So simple my man. 👍 so so simple! I owe you some beers brother and would be proud to hang with you anytime my man. We'd have a good time brother. I guarantee it. 😁

 

[Texasguy115]

And perhaps more to come.

Who else??

 

[2300 Nueces]

No doubt about it brother.😁

Riley's air raid and no defense is going to lose some games on the road in the big.

Oh they're just coming to Texas "for the culture and what we're building here".

Indeed. He's on the pirate's train.. You've seen it before. 😉

 

[Oldmanastro]

Who else??

DE/LB - Derion Guilete - Proj 4*

Aggy recruits only chose atm bc of its facilities traditions and cheerleaders. 🤣

[Oldmanastro]

Jaden Greathouse, 4* WR from Westlake, committing on July 15th.
Has been a Notre Dame lean, but UT is a consideration.

[Hoookem722]

If anybody is interested here's a link to the interview Sark had with Greg McElroy yesterday. It's a good listen and kind of puts into perspective about how he's trying to shift the culture of the program.

 

[Hoookem722]

Apparently Johntay Cook wasn't a fan of Jimbo's offense. He knows what we all already know lol.

 

[KChorn11]

If your a skill position player in the country not sure why you wouldn’t play for Sark… just look at the track record.
