I may be wrong but I think this piece was written the week before the article that quoted Green saying "I haven't talked to Texas in a long time."Not sure at all about the source, but:
Personally, I'd pick playing with my Brother and going away over having my parents at every game with my clean laundry...But my Brothers and I were very close.Aaron Green
Odds of Committing (to Tejas), Last Week to this Week: 45% to 60%
As Tipsy Gypsie reported earlier, our source is becoming more and more optimistic at the thought of Green joining Brown on the 40 acres.
First, don’t discount the effect that Nebraska’s move to the Big 10 has on the young man and his family. The Huskers will play zero games in the state of Texas after this season, and that’s weighed heavily on the minds of the Green family.
Green’s other favorite program, Texas, has a lot going for it. It’s a great school, a great program, and it’s a short one hour drive up the road from San Antonio. That’s huge.
Also, the Texas coaching staff has done a good job showing how Green would fit into an offense which would feature another great back in Malcolm Brown.
Kick returns, motioning out of the backfield, and reverses are just some of examples the Texas staff has evidently used with Green to illustrate how we’re going to get him touches. It doesn’t hurt that we used tape from two national championship games to show him.
Not worried.
