Hopefully Sumlin's replacement will be that desperate!

Aggy missed on on most of the DB class in the state.......biggest crop of top rated prospects maybe ever, and they have the commit of ONE......I think they'd gladly take Crawford

I think O'Neal ends up with Clemson

Looks like Texas has impressed Anthony Cook enough to where he now says we're tied with tOSU for his recruitment.

Uh oh @BearcatKlaw

Michigan State is going hard after the Cincinnati 4-star SDE commit Malik Vann. Vann's friend Josiah Scott is a starting CB for Michigan State this season as a True Freshman, and Scott is working on flipping Vann to the Spartans.

Malik Vann, a senior four-star defensive end from Fairfield (Ohio), is visiting Michigan State

Vann took a visit to East Lansing last week and is now trending 89% for Michigan State on the 247 crystal ball.

Saw he just visited the Horns this past weekend. How'd it go?

According to Cook, it was a 10 out of 10. He said point blank, that Texas and tOSU are tied for #1 in his recruitment.

If that is indeed the case, playing at home would likely win out. There will have to be some differentiator but right now he loves the defensive scheme and how he would fit. Also given the Texas DB class he'd be joining........this is going to go down to signing day

Anthony Cook quotes:

“Texas really showed me something,” Cook said. “I would give the visit the highest grade possible. On a 1-10 scale, it was a 10. I saw a lot of things that I liked and how I would fit on and off the field. I like the alumni base and connections. I also got to talk to Michael Huff and Aaron Ross. It’s great to see those players come back and support.”

“I broke down film with Coach Washington and sat in on the DB meeting,” Cook said. “We had dinner with him all weekend. I felt comfortable with him. I like him a lot. I got to go to Coach Herman’s house and played basketball with them. We had a lot of fun.

“I had one last conversation with Coach Herman before I left, and we actually talked about recruiting. He asked me where they stand and if they have a real shot. And yes, they do have a real shot.”

“I would say Ohio State and Texas are one now,” Cook said. “They are both tied at the top, so LSU is number two. I don’t know what it was about Texas. It was just one of those visits where you feel it. I loved everything about it.”

Interesting. Texas has definitely made up the ground. I'm wondering how things will be after the season for both squads.

Keep an eye on Adeyole. He might be making a move.

What's going on with Jaiden Woodbey? There's a lot of rumblings of a potential flip. Coming from SC outlets
News to me. He has no official visits planned to anyone else and he's come out a few times and said his recruitment is shut down.

He's been on the SC campus a lot lately. He was also at the SC/Utah game with other targets.I know he had said he was shutting his recruiting down. But his last tweet may suggest this possible flip story has legs :noidea:

It's very much a possibility. I'll just say that. Same goes for Proctor.
What's going on with proctor I have seen anything on him? Mostly Woodbey could be smoke may be fire. I believe Woodbey was supposed to be an early enrollee could be interesting

Proctor has been talking a lot with OU lately. He's trying to keep it quiet because urban is putting major pressure on he and Woodbey to shut things down.
