Michigan 24/7 CB'ed him to us, claiming he doesn't think Michigan would let him commit. Their loss, if so.

Scout has Thomas severely underrated, he has offers from some of the best programs in the nation and his interest continues to rise. I wouldn't be surprised if he was a 4-star by the time his senior year is finished.

I mean, A&M and Ole Miss are decent offers, but he doesn't have a huge list of offers from elite schools.

He's at 5.6 right now on Rivals so I don't see any way he gets a .2 bump on one season. Maybe I'll be wrong.

does ratings and stars go up if a bunch of big time schools offer?

No they just naturally coincide.

But I don't ever remember seeing a recruit move from 5.6 to 5.8 in one season. I'm sure it's happened before, I just haven't seen it.

He'll be a 3-star on Rivals in my opinion.

You've never seen it before? Alonzo Moore did it in one season as did Patrick O'Brien last season I believe. It's really if he camps in the summer, if he doesn't camp it will be hard for him to receive a bump.

5* WR Joseph Lewis was interviewed by some Rivals guy and had to bring up Nebraska on his own and talk about us for a good minute. Can tell he has a lot of connection and a good relationship with coach Dub.. Will come down to signing day, but Tristan is after him too

Good news is that we don't need to wait on him. We can take 4 WRs and if he wants in on signing day, we'll just have 5 then.

Those were 5.7 to 5.8 jumps.

A 5.6 rated 3-star is closer to a 2-star than a 4-star.

I have never seen a recruit jump 2 points. That's all I'm saying.

1 point happens often.

were they? Thought they started at 5.6... I'm pretty sure it's happened before, perhaps not to any of our recruits. Would be an interesting thing to see...

I figured nobody would get it. Beings as everyone here probably thinks I drink all day long. Probably just think I'm saying I like beer.

From rivals, sounds like the OU DL coach will be at Thomas's school tomorrow but according to him they're too late to the party.
