Sales

[OTFBrandon]

What’s the percentage we end up with Sales when the time comes? I’ve seen the percentage climb the past couple of days and I too believe in that trend. In my opinion, I believe Texas does have the edge in his recruitment against Indiana solely because of Dia Bell. Hopefully I’m right!

How often does one team land the 1 and 2 ranked WR in the same class? I just can’t see it happening, so I say less than 20%.
 

I fully yield and differ to any OTF members’ opinion on this, however.

Yeah, it reminds me of the 2025 high school recruiting cycle when Georgia thought they were getting both Elijah Griffin and Justus Terry, the #1 and #2 interior defensive lineman prospects in that cycle.  I think Sales goes to IU.  Would love to be wrong here.

It reminds me of that too, but coming in as a freshman is always going to be easier as a WR than a Dlinemen especially into a room with open spots available.

I’ve seen 40% from Gerry. I like those odds for us. I think we can make a big case with how we weaponize Coleman, Wingo, Moseley, Lockett, Bishop, etc this season. Plus Sark’s track record with his time at Bama! 

[Hookem72]

Coleman and Wingo will be gone this year too freeing up a lot of NIL for Sales and Royal and to retain Bishop.

Lots of wishing and hoping here, But no substance. Indiana until proven wrong.

I’m at a point where I’d be ecstatic if we land LWC and go at least 1 for 2 on Sales and Royal. If we get them both then it’ll be up there with the most talented class Texas has ever had. 

[VaHorn]

I am more confident that he will commit than I am that Royal will stick.

It's much more than that. What can he,Texas, and his agency do with his brand building and development in football and his life after football.

I agree with the overall tenet of this post. Texas has an uphill battle. Not insurmountable but it’s uphill. 

[Burnt Orange Horn]

Texas has the coaches, has the education, is in a world class city, has the post football support, has the QB, has the professional scheme and hopefully has the NIL package.

Sales is smart and requested Texas to recruit him.

Excelsior!!

I would say possible, but not probable.

Is it more likely we get Sales to commit to us the next couple weeks (first time through/round 1) or as a late flip (round 2/3)?

I think whoever gets him first will have a much easier time holding him than getting him to flip. It's not impossible to flip someone, especially of that caliber, but improbable unless IU has a disaster season or some other reason.
