Daniel Carson just committed to Texas

He’ll need at least a red shirt year. I would think he’ll develop into a solid contributer. Not a game breaker but they’re not all going to be. Should be some solid rotational depth once he develops.

Ideally I'd like to redshirt every kid we sign on the OL/DL this year outside of the JUCOs

Carson should be a solid contributor, an anchor on the line. He has some technique issues that need to be coached as well as adding some weight. But DAMN we needed him.

Now all we need to do is close on Coburn, Ossai and Ojomo.......it's looking good for all three currently

Ojomo will come down to the wire. As long as we end up with one of Ojomo or Thompson I’ll be thrilled. I know they’d take both though.

Texas essentially having one of the last visits is huge here.

I think whoever commits first, gets the spot. Thompson, would be a HUGE get and Ojomo, will grow into a great DT,NG.

Right now I think all of the coaches energy are on Ojo, Thompson, ONeal, Tank and Solo.

White is coming in this weekend and he and Thompson hit it off at the Army AA game. He's been in full recruiter mode, with Thompson. Ojo, I think comes down to a OU vs UT, battle. Would love them both and would make this one of the best ever Dline classes, in years.

The fact you're pursuing other DTs may factor in.......as in, the coaches have a good idea Ojomo is not coming.

I like the Texas odds here, especially with the last visit. Thing about Ojomo is he needs time to develop......he's only 16.

It already is one of the best D line classes in years.

Right now I think OU is leading on Ojomo. Things have taken a strange turn against UT, he setup a last visit with Oregon and now looks to take a mid week trip to either UT or the Aggys.

Nope. He officials to Texas next week and got 2 fresh CBs to Texas this morning.

I really don’t pay much attention to CB’s. Not calling my shot either way right now. All we know is it’s an Oklahoma vs Texas battle.

The best recruits are the ones that put michigan in meltdown mode
This one really hurt them. Harbaugh was on this kid very early in the process and Meyer jumped in on Friday not that far away. I think the Cox leaving is when Meyer went full court press on Friday.

All I'm saying is.....I don't think OU is in the lead

I don't think that kid knows where he's going yet......but IF he leaves the state I'm pretty sure it would be to OU. I haven't seen much other than his visit to OU to think he's leaving the state tho.

We'll all know in a few weeks. The only thing I DO know is aggy fans are going to be pissed either way, so there's THAT!!!

According to 247 Texas A&M has a 36% chance to land Ojomo, OU 27%, and Texas 9%.

Moro Ojomo, Katy, Defensive Tackle

LOL. And that's completely wrong for one reason......A&M only got CBs for Ojomo because he lives in Katy......so aggy fans just ASSUMED he wanted to be an aggy. He's never even visited their campus, and they aren't getting an official.

Those picks will all flip in the next week. So yeah, they're a little behind here. NOBODY thinks this isn't a Texas-OU battle.
