Street Novelist Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 Scout: "Call this a coming out party for Onyechi. After being sidelined for his entire junior season to injury, Onyechi wanted to make big things happen for his senior season. In Week 0, he hit the ground running literally gaining 203 yards and three touchdowns in win over Jersey Village." Quote Link to comment

Danimal Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 If there is a silver lining in not having that many commits it's that we can take runs at guys that come out of the shadows and blow-up their senior seasons. Like last year, Midddleton had gotten injured his junior season and lost his starting-job but went gangbusters as a senior, and he's looked damn good thus far in Lincoln. Also, there is that wr we offered late after he blew-up in a Louisian all-star game that unfortunately Mizzou got, evidently he's turned heads in Columbia already. This Onyechi could be one to watch.

They miss out on these guys who for whatever reason (injury, behind seniors, etc.) didn't contribute as underclassmen and have huge senior years. There are also those who disappoint enough during their senior years that they get downgraded, but Texas is pretty much on the hook to take them. Hopefully Onyechi is one of those guys that Texas misses out on. Quote Link to comment

teachercd Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I know that there are a bunch of BCers around still that need to see a star so they can cream their pants but its kids like this that the Skers have on their radar that make me realize that Bo and his staff can spot talent before many other coaches. I am not saying they are super talent spotters but just that they are very good at what they do. This kids measureables probably stack up to any RB in the top 30 in the nation. Yet he is not ranked and has no stars but he also plays in a great HS football state vs good competition. This could will end up being a 3 star guy that ends up being a 3 year stud in college.
