🙃 As I said, looking over some obvious ones.

Worthy for me good sir 🫡

Uh, Johnny Lam Jones

Ramonce Taylor as well.

I'm probably overlooking some obvious ones. Should be a fun discussion!

With Easton Royal breaking track records on Saturday night, it got me thinking about the fastest players to ever come through Texas. These were some of the first guys that came to mind. Please post anybody else you're thinking about below! Xavier Worthy Adonai Mitchell Matthew Golden Marquis Goodwin Jamaal Charles John Burt Brennen Thompson Daje Johnson Quan Cosby

Shoot, Mitchell might just be headed straight to the track after college. If he is still posting 10.1 or 10.0 legitimately next year, might be worth the conversation of hanging up the football cleats.

Texas is ranked #1 , Tennessee 3rd nationally

Texas takes 2nd varsity 8s Tennessee 2nd, Bama 3rd, OU 4th. Texas won by 5 seconds

Gerry and I discussed this. He reminds me of a more athletic Devin Duvernay. Same build, same elite (10.2) speed. I just think Royal has more fluidity to his game.

Where are you getting the $3mm price tag for Royal?

Royal is faster but I think about Jaylen Waddle in terms of comp.

Wonder what kind of water? Probably cheap.

DAMN!!! Smoking the competition! That’s insane. Hopefully the V8 can do the same!!

Texas takes varsity 4s, Tennessee 2nd, Bama 3rd, OU 4th Texas won by 7 seconds

The next 3 races are the big guns. NCAA championship consist of the varsity 4s, 2nd varsity 8s and varsity 8s.

@nozatx sorry for the dumb question. what is WP? Polo?

Nash hit the rim once lol

Here's my current Stanford v Texas snapshot as of May 9 results and rankings. I will expand this later to include at least UCLA, but I wanted to go ahead and post. Texas still needs to perform well pretty much across the board because Stanford's score is well -protected by having a large number of high-scoring excluded sports to fill in in case of an unexpectedly bad showing in one sport (but it also keeps them from gaining a lot of points in case of an unexpected good result). T&F rankings are really sketchy and just a few individuals can make a huge difference in the final team placing, so that's just a big wild-care until it's over. ("x" in front a score means that the score is outside the top 14 non-mandatory sport scores).

Who does he compare to the most because I don’t remember too many WR recruits with his size, skill and speed combination?

Worthy lost track season as junior to COVID, so hard to ever know what he would have put up in track. He went 10.5 as a sophomore, so not likely 10.2 ... but who knows.

Isn't the question whether a freshman receiver should receive a $3MM pay day? Cam is a third-year player. Not apple to apples. I'm not saying don't pay him but I thought one of the emerging themes was paying players at a level when they will make an actual impact.
