this isn’t last offseason. if the staff liked their guys and didn’t want to be active in the portal, they wouldn’t have let their guys walk. The staff has already probably doubled the amount of prospects that have visited campus out of the portal. they are clearly running this very different from the process they ran last year

Here’s more truth: we know exactly how texas responds when their options start to slim at a spot they need. Missed on some d-linemen and got screwed by Bo Davis? Go pay for justus terry and take him away from UGA after a 5 year relationship Nansen decides recruiting is optional? Make sure tyler atkinson is set to be paid enough to get him to Austin We are going to try to win recruitments at market value or slightly above until the options we deem valuable are slim. THEN, when it’s absolutely necessary, we will go all in to address any needs that haven’t been hit yet Bank breaking offers on Jan 4th and 5th are for getting tier 2 guys to lock down early and agree to live in lubbock

yea man, texas landed tyler atkinson, justus terry, derek cooper, jonah williams, and colin simmons just because! Brendan Sorsby was a Tech lock for a month, entered with a do not contact tag, visited Tech first and still took another visit. players and agents know how to maximize their check even if they know where they want to end up, and that means in demand players will let some things play out.
