  1. Just happened to watch the movie Friday Night Lights last night, hadn't seen it for awhile. Must be incredible to be a high school football player in Texas. Considering the pressure they deal with at the high school level its no surprise to see them flourish at the college and pro level. They have some serious balling going on down there.

  2. Didn't commit to TENN. We are in the picture here.

     

    Are we in the picture because he did not commit and we were still on his list? Or did he not commit because he is still strongly considering us?

    He did not commit because he is still strongly considering both teams.

  3. Rivals - 4 Stars

     

    "Stuff like this means he either isn't going to make his grades so its a nice way to let him back out or they've cooled on him and its a nice way to let him look elsewhere."

    Tiger board consensus.

     

    More I looked into it, it looks like a NCAA clearinghouse issue and with how LSU (over)signs kids, they can't take the risk.

    Could we?

    Seems like he'd definitely be worth the risk considering that we probably wont get the 26-27 spots in this class filled. If he doesn't qualify the schollie would probably just go to a walk-on anyway.

  4. As stated earlier he has shut them down and he's solid, sorry for stirring up some drama I jumped the gun a bit, they only visited him at school

    Glad to hear it, we need all our recruits to be solid right now, can't afford to lose anybody else.

    I know it has been posted in the thread already, but I just watched his highlight again, and Wow! I see a lot of posters complaining about not having that big time DT commit, but I think this guy is it.... I agree we need more depth, but this kid explodes of the ball, and he has great speed for his size.... Hopefully we can keep him from Missouri, because he looks the part at the very least....

    If Mizzou has already caught on to the ways of the $EC than we could be in trouble here.

  6. Redshirt both of them. Abdullah, heard, and cross will be fine next year. If one gets seriously injured than pull one redshirt

    You can scratch Heard off the list, no chance they both redshirt now.

     

    Yeah, question will be, who gets the playing time Newby or Taylor?

     

    The most logical would be newby to have a more elusive back, since Taylor seems to be more of a power guy and we already have Cross. Newby fits into Heard's playing capabilities pretty well, if better.

    Agree, Newby is the obvious choice with Heard leaving, he will definitely get a chance to earn playing time and we're only one injury away from he and Taylor both seeing the field. We should find out pretty quickly how good these guys are.

  7. I'm not the least bit confident when we're up against an $EC team in recruiting, especially this late in the game. They're crooked as hell and when its late and they're desperate for a player they will stop at nothing to get their guy. Hopefully Johnson can't be bought.

     

    Obviously we arent doing something right then since we're ranked 65th in recruiting right now :lol:

    That just means the other $EC teams are out spending you.

  8. Says he will decide Monday.

    Actually think we're looking good here that he's ready to announce right after his visit. We were the team to beat going in and he just wanted to make sure, don't think the visit changed things. If he decided to wait till signing day I'd be worried.
