goathumper Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Blessing for Texas that Matai isnt considering any schools West of the Mississippi. Or the Nacogdoches for that matter Sharma would be a great get and huge need for the class. Philips I think is underrated nationally and by many Texas recruiting fans. Very skilled and long athlete with plus movement skills. Could be a stud field safety 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest is window dressing ... if you want my honest opinion. The new landscape of football. I still hope the brand and appeal of playing at Texas these days is making an influence. It's not Saban football but getting kids in the league should still be important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
