Moderators Gerry Hamilton Posted September 22 Author Moderators Share Posted September 22 OnTexasFootball also spoke with Richmond (Texas) Randle 4-star DL and Texas A&M verbal Chace Sims just now. He and his family remain scheduled to make an official visit to Texas this weekend. He attended the Texas A&M-Bowling Green game Saturday. The Aggies staff attempted to get Sims to cancel the visit plans to Texas, but that is not expected to happen. OTF remains the same on Sims: If the convos go well with Kenny Baker and Steve Sarkisian this weekend, it's a 75-80% chance he flips to the Horns. 30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orngblud05 Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Gerry, on Sims - “if the conversations go well” meaning if Sims is made to feel like he is a priority? Sounds like he wants to be a horn so if the staff wants that too, it’s all but over? Fair read? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sims convos on Texas, DL development, how Sark and Baker see him and other stuff are positive, it's going to happen. He didn't make a June OV, like he did to others, so in person convos are key. 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinncent McManning, Jr. Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Gonna start having to turn away DTs at this rate. Would love to get Mathis and Sims. Seems like Sims and Simpson would be easier to flip but we have to shoot our shot on Mathis and Wynn. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jahkeem Stewart could get on campus - we shall see. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goattalk100 Posted Sunday at 11:54 PM Share Posted Sunday at 11:54 PM Mathis & Mbatchou PLEASE. Of course would be very happy with Sims &/or Wynn as well. But those are the guys for me. Stewart if he gets on campus would vault into the top tier of guys for me as well. Regardless, we will end up with the best DL class at Texas maybe ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GQ03 Posted Monday at 12:20 AM Share Posted Monday at 12:20 AM @Gerry Hamilton, so is this basically a first come first served type of situation with Sims, Simpson, Mathis, Mbatchou, Wynn, etc?? First two to commit are in and then we shut it down....?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's not a likely scenario 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheContractor12 Posted Monday at 01:30 AM Share Posted Monday at 01:30 AM the unofficial this weekend for Mathis is great bc if things go well, we will get him back again for an OV to seal the deal! For me its Mathis and Wynn followed closely by Simms and Mbatchu. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
