Thermos H Christ posted:Texas finally wins a heads-up recruiting battle with A&M (also Oklahoma, Baylor, Ole Miss, and others) for safety Deshon Elliott. He's currently a 3-star but he's within a hair of a 4th. Not a huge splash or anything but we'll take recruiting victories where we can get them for the moment. Texas also got a pledge from 4* OT Toby Weathersby over the weekend, who had an A&M offer.

Jovon Robinson, was a solid, not quite elite 4* RB who signed with Auburn in '12 but was ruled ineligible for having his high school grades changed by a counselor. He's now a 5* coming out of JUCO, one of the best RBs in the class period and very likely to be a one-and-done. Lists Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia and Tennessee as his favorites but still describes Auburn as "the best fit" and says not much has changed.

This weekend I have to work a 7-on-7 event and we'll have Byron Cowart, George Campbell (I think he's still a Michigan commit), Jeff Holland and Kevin Tolliver (LSU commit) here. If I hear anything interesting, I'll be sure to pass it along.

UCF had a player in 2010 that they were calling the next Brandon Marshall, named Jordan Akins. Upon signing, he decided to go the MLB rout. Well, he's going back to UCF now and is a 21 year old freshman In 2010 Ht:6'3" Wt:185 lbs Should be good for them

Baylor just picked up JaMycal Hasty at RB. Sounds like a fantastic get for us. People on SBnation and ESPN singing praises about his hands, change of direction, raw speed, etc.

Iowa's class thus far is all white guys who are either scrappy high school QBs or offensive linemen. It is the most perfectly Kirk Ferentz class possible. I mean ideally we'd also have a couple two star grey shirt safeties who inexplicably will start a freshmen but that can't happen until the end and I'm sure it's coming l.

One addendum about Hasty - while he apparently primarily plays Running Back, I'm hearing Baylor is more interested in playing him at Slot Receiver. Ronald Jones II is currently Baylor's primary interest at RB. Works for me, always fun seeing more evidence of Art Briles' desire to leave no opposing secondary untraumatized.

We made our logo red white and blue way before other schools started ripping that off. Herky dressed up as Captain America for Halloween. WE TURNED THE ENTIRE STADIUM INTO A FLAG. How does someone named "Freedom" go anywhere else?

Two 4* recruits in two days for PSU - 4* OG Steven Gonzalez yesterday and 4* ILB Josh Barajas today. I'm not certain either sticks, but this is some ridiculous momentum.

I don't know if anything I noticed at the event this weekend is news to anyone, but here goes: - I hadn't realized WR George Campbell decommitted from Michigan, but he seems pretty enamored with FSU. I also had no idea he had such a big personality. He's the opposite of Ermon Lane from last year, who was very quiet and reserved. - DE Byron Cowart is a grown rear end man at only 18-years old. He is my mental image of what I imagine American folk hero John Henry would have looked like. As for a college, he's all business and isn't tipping his hand at all. He was actually the only kid around that didn't seem like he was under any school's spell. Reminds me a bit of Da'Shawn Hand in that respect. At the end of the day, however, this event had more than 100 high ranked prospects from Florida, and a group from D.C., but in three years of this, it felt like FSU was in the driver's seat for nearly every kid there, or could be if they wanted to be. It's never been like that before. Although I guess it makes sense now that they're the hot team and defending champ. The next big event on campus is in June, and that's our national event. We'll have groups of kids from all over the U.S., and there are usually a ton of new commits/de-commits by then.

It's never easier to recruit either coming off a title or hiring a new coach(much less at a prestige school much less a coach already known for his recruiting).

Dattserberg posted:Yes, please. In the 3-years I've been involved with 7v7 events, Campbell might be the best overall receiver I've seen in that format. One thing that stood out for me is how he tries to make every catch an 'NFL' catch, because he always tries to get both feet in. He's the only high schooler I've ever seen really put a noticeable emphasis on that. It's also worth noting that Campbell played a lot of safety at this last event, and was one of the best safeties on the field. As tall as he is, the kid has incredible instincts for the position.

^^^^ I mean I know what they're going for, but that card basically says "Running backs! We've had one that you've definitely heard of, and then one great RB since you were born!!!! And that's about it! Probably a bad idea for you to come here if you want to get drafted high!"

Texas apparently got off to a really good start with the #2 TE in the country, Will Gragg of Arkansas. Some excerpts from a 247 article behind the paywall that got posted to another board:quote:The result of the trip? It's all good for the Longhorns.

Gragg seems like he is going to be one that plays the field for awhile. I suspect Arkansas or Alabama (probably the latter) will get him. His brother went to Arkansas but I suspect he may want to go elsewhere.

His brother went to Arkansas but I suspect he may want to go elsewhere. Very possible. I feel like Texas is getting lots of good vibes from blue chip recruits but only a couple of badass commits so far. If this season happens to go great I suspect we'll end up with a killer 2015 class, if not we'll probably end up with something more like our 2013-14 classes.
