Hold onto him, and go find the under recruited 3* RB from Texas who will be a draft pick. There is at least one literally every year. Don't expect Wisner or Baxter back next year, and who knows on Gibson if he gets passed by Clark and Simon.

QE's looked just like he has for the last 3 years at Texas... I will eat crow if he goes off and looks legit.

Blake, who were those two they lost out on? Thanks

Like I said, don't even look at or care about anything they say, since knocking down Banks to a 4* for volunteering to play RT in one of those All American games, a position he'd never played & never will.

What is the Tx class equivalent please? 5a?

Tech is getin a gud un

Looks like Willis McGahee to me. Wonder if Miami is selling him on that.

I thought I saw a tweet from his dad that he had some turn of the ankle but still was able to have that crazy speed burst run. Kid is special.

Not at all, but I don't like going into Georgia with 2 losses in a playoff eliminaion game that early in season. No way Kirby loses that game in that situauion to knock us out of playoffs... Could be a diaster 2nd half of season with nothing left to play for.

Yeah, definitely only pretty good. 🤦‍♂️

hopefully he sues the hell out of the other party...

Miami thinks they have a real uphill battle. I expect a battle, as it should be!

Do we hold onto this commit?

he's our Adrian Peterson

I wanted to answer these three together, as they all sorta tie in. I don't see an impact guy next year, at least not offensively. I would be surprised if there is an A-Rod level contributor next season from one of these freshmen. That's not to say that they're not talented, because they are. This is a solid class for sure. It's just that Texas is much deeper than they were a season ago, along with some portal players who have an opportunity to shine. As far as pitching goes, that's so tough. NO ONE, not even the coaches, knew what they had in Volantis. It's sort of an unfair comparison. I can promise you that the staff didn't even think he'd be what he ended up being before he began or even through the early part of the season. If I had to pick a pitcher, I would say Cozart is definitely the safe pick. He's the most ready. Will he be Volantis 2.0? I seriously doubt it. I'm not even sure Cozart is the most talented freshman pitcher on the roster, but again, he's the most ready out of the bunch to throw in a game. It's also important that a couple of these guys may carve out a role earlier than others, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're the most talented or the best of the group. Cozart fits that to a T, imo. And that's not a knock on him by any means.... He's a high floor guy with a ton of talent.

Anyone who watched Tony Dorsett play might make an argument for him. Though no one would want to agree O.J. Simpson was awesome at USC. His run against UCLA in 1967 during the fourth quarter was one of the best plays I have ever seen.

Rivals/On3 thinks there are 122 better prospects in the country than Cooper Kiss my grits on that one

I feel this in my bones too. Sayin is young, inexperienced, and only 6'1

Yep. I've seen a few articles that say they haven't settled on OL positions yet.

The change in question is in regard to letting FCS (Football Championship Subdivision) teams have the helmet communications. That rule will help Illinois State against OU in a few weeks, preventing Brent Venables from a last bastion of space for him to steal sideline signals.

I'll go ahead and get this one out of the way. Four commits went the MLB route. Kayson Cunningham - Elite SS. Would have started for Texas at the position as a HS senior. Seriously. He's that good. There was about a 20% chance he was coming to Texas at best and it would have been HUGE if he did. Gavin Fien - Elite 3B. Texas knew this would be a battle as well. His odds were a little higher of getting on campus, but not much. Xavier Mitchell - LHP, 13th round. Texas for sure had a shot here, but he also got paid a nice little chunk of change. Grayson Boles - RHP, 18th round. Boles was a national top 150 kid, but I didn't expect him to go. Really good command, but needs work. I think it's worth noting that they feel good about where they are and it's important to remember that this is still somewhat of a transition class. Some of this class was Pierce guys. Schloss first true class is 2026. There were only two players they really put up a fight for and both were elite guys.... unfortunately they lost both.

--A player attempting to recover a loose ball is now considered a defenseless player. That one will have some impact in games for sure
