If Royal flips, does Texas go after a top guy recruited somewhere else while trying to get Royal back in the fold? Or is it Sales and/or Royal or bust?

It’s only a proposal at this time - it’ll be negotiated and you may see another lockout. The players are likely to be against it. It delays your start, meaning your first contract is later so you’re much older when you try to get your second contract.

Will this affect portal recruiting? You have to recruit like he won’t play for a few weeks/months, correct?

He may just hate college and wants to play pro ball.

Unless Mendoza just doesn’t like it at Texas, he should come back - hasn’t been selected through 15 rounds - don’t think any team would go over $150k signing bonus. Get a degree and comparable money.

Why would Texas pay that to a kid who is going to have Tommy John and not play this season?

Finally, everyone can stop talking like they care about soccer. USA had an easy draw and folded the first time they play a team with a pulse. it’s college football time.

Hey, you know we have your hitting coach, right?

From his post today - these are the only ones in “best class scenario” uncommitted I’d assume we have 4 of the 6, with the other leaning Ohio St (and Sales being the OR if Royal decommits) RB (1-2) Landen Williams-Callis, RB, Richmond (Texas) Randle OTF ranking: 4-star++ WR (3) (Either or) Monshun Sales, WR, Indianapolis (In.) Lawrence North OTF ranking: 5-star and 5-star OL (5-6) Ismael Camara, OT, Gilmer (Texas) High OTF ranking: 4-star++ DL (3-4) Jason Johnson, DL, Humble (Texas) Atascocita OTF ranking: 3-star++ EDGE (3) Marcus Fakatou, EDGE/DL, Chatsworth (Calif.) Sierra Canyon OTF ranking: 4-star++ DB (4-5) Brandon Sherrard, CB, Pearland (Texas) Shadow Creek OTF ranking: 4-star

Gerry’s best class scenario post has 5 guys currently uncommitted and I believe 3 outstanding “HI”s, so it is most likely 3 of those 5, my guess is LWC.
