Media effort to get Royal to flip

A 215 lb, 5-star WR that runs sub 10.2 is worth every possible effort you can make. Regardless of what the end result is you do whatever you can to keep him. 

Thinking he will end up to close to QB money. LSU under extreme pressure to keep him.

This recruitment won’t end until the ink is dry. 

The recruitment of true difference makers never ends until they are drafted.

LSU is going to have a deep WR/ATH class (4 WR commits already) but hopefully it won't include Royal. LSU QB room is not as good as the TX QB room imo.

 

Sark wants Royal as much as any TX WR target ever imo. We are going to be recruiting Royal through the whistle.

Believe our superior QB room, pro WR route tree, friendly WR offense and proven WR speed development is very attractive to Royal.  Our offensive coaches can win out. Some chance Sales helps us. TX NIL should be what it needs to be in the end.

Can you imagine? QBs Lacy and Bell, Bishop in the slot, Royal and Sales/Lockett on the outside. 5* Cooper and 5* LWC at RB. Townsend, Winston and BWilliams at TE. Swanson and Camara on the OL. Go add a top proven portal OL to fill in a gap. 

On paper, nobody would be more dangerous than that Texas offense imo.

 

 

 

We shouldn't even need to go to the portal on the OL with Turntine, Nic Robertson and the Coleman twins added to Swanson and (hopefully) Camara.

I don’t agree with you, but I especially don’t agree that he likes the drama of his WR1 flirting with another school and being coy about his final decision. 

I’m not saying he likes it, but if it was someone like BV or Dabo they might have Royal decommitt.

BV and Dabo also tell players not to commit unless they don’t plan on taking any other visits.

He didn’t start the drama the media did for attention and clicks. 

Exactly my thought on this. He hasn't done anything but be up front and honest throughout the process. He isn't feeding the flip talk other than taking visits which every recruit does. This is all being pushed by media.

I honestly think that approach hurt Mack land some game changing talent. To be clear, I’m not saying I like Royal’s approach, but I don’t believe it bothers Sark, and I believe he thinks the drama keeps Texas as the “cool” school.
