Updated with Caleb Chester added.

Watched him this year vs. Dickinson. Texas had him on campus a couple of times in the last year, but hasn't been a priority target in the class. He had more of slasher RB frame as a junior. Dad idoing a good job of adding weight over time to his frame.

You will like it in 2025 and 2026. Uptick in the Greater Houston area in those two classes

Money maker today for sure!

For sure! He never looked 270, but that's smaller than expected

T'Vondre Sweat 6-4.5, 366 just ran 5.27 laser 40

Byron Murphy runs 4.88 laser on first 40 at NFL Combine

Texas A&M DT McKinley Jackson 6-1.5, 326 just ran 5.27 laser 40.

Not ideal for Jeremiah Trotter Jr. ... but a hell of a player
