    What's up with Kent Perkins? Haven't heard anything from him in awhile. Also, what are Catalons thoughts on his role in the offense when he gets here? Is he ok with Texas possibly taking another rb, such as Starks?

    From nachorn:

    We currently have 4 junior DTs on the roster; however, we are only recruiting one 2013 DT (A'Shawn Robinson) at this time. Do you see us taking a look nationally at any other DT prospects, especially considering Robinson is looking to visit some high profile schools? Also, if Jake Raulerson ends up on the OL, then we do not currently have any 2013 DE prospects. It seems that if we were sold on Gregory, then we would have already firmed up an official visit. How do you think the 2013 DE recruiting shakes out?

    As for Gregory, he's waiting to see what Texas is going to do before taking a visit. With his injury this season, which put him for the year, it's hard for the Texas coaches to evaluate him. With that being said, the talks between the coaching staff and Gregory continue and he is definitely very serious about Texas. If he hears that he'll get an offer, he'll be in Austin in a heartbeat.

    I think Texas is the one school who can make him switch from Purdue.

    Does Mack intend to send out another wave of 2014 offers at the junior days?

    Will the next 2013 DE commit be from HS or Juco?

    Which would be more shocking, Treadwell committing to Texas or Harris committing to ou?

    Harris to OU, imo. Right now it's Florida, Texas and FSU in that order. Texas or UF will land him. Not OU.

    Foolish post. Just my opinion.

    I guess time will tell us who was right yet again.

  • Important note on Tony Brown per Gerry Hamiltom.

    Tony and his mom will be visiting Texas unofficially this weekend. His sister Bealoved Brown will be making an official visit to Texas Tech.

    I would definitely think so. Plenty of 2014 evaluations are still going on, so I expect more offers to go out in February. Will it be 20? No. But some will be extended imo.

    And if I had to pick, I'd say JUCO unless they find a national target.

    That's great! Does she have legit interest in Texas' track program?

    Kelso, Nothing new with Perkins. Blake Munroe will be going by before the end of the season. Hearing he is playing well as a senior. Think he projects to RT at Texas. Best ball way out in front of him. Will need time IMO. Great body type, baseline talent.

    From Hookem89:

    Last year Texas finished off the 2012 class going after recruits (Sanders, Santos, Cottrell, etc) that were committed to other schools. If you were Texas what committed recruits would you go after to finish out the 2013 class?

    The most obvious answer is going to be Robbie Rhodes. Texas will be after him until NSD.

    If it were my decision, I'd continue to recruit wide receiver Torii Hunter Jr. as well.

    **** Mack Brown has some more tricks left up his sleeves for recruiting, including some things that will happen in December/January I am told.

    **** Most certainly Juco unless a committed high school player comes back around to Texas (like Torshiro Davis).

  • DBs are strong in the 2014 class. What others positions groups are strong and what positions groups are weak in the class?

    From Hookem89:

    Hookem89, I think it's JUCO or a guy coming on as a senior like Texas A&M commitment Hardreck Walker - he has a lot of upside ability. Was more of a role player as a junior behind two very good seniors at Westfield.

    CornHorn, yes. Texas definitely is in eval mode on 2014's, and 2015's.

  • Just me, but I believe every Texas board should take note of the recruiting changes that will come if Texas is undefeated after Dallas and/or playing in Jan

    Mack & his assistants may receive phone calls they never expected

    I think Major Applewhite. We've seen him work his magic with Daje Johnson for example.

    2014 class:

    Strong:
    S
    CB
    LB
    RB
    DE - upside guys

    Weaker:
    OL
    DT
    TE

    Good:
    WR
    QB - watch for this position to end up better than right now. I like a guy like Jarrett Hildreth long term.
