There goes Green with another big TD.

I've also wondered about this guy for Aledo https://247sports.com/player/keiran-patrick-daniels-46114521/. Hawk Patrick-Daniels. He was committed to Incarnate Word until 14 minutes ago per Twitter. 15 total TDs on the year but he really set the playoffs on fire. Seems like a Swiss army knife. His Twitter shows him at 5'11" and 175 so not huge but has speed.

Thanks. My assumption is several are high school recruits either waiting for the end of HS playoffs or just waiting on early signing day but we'll see.

I feel like we've gotten more puzzle pieces than public commitments the past few day or am I wrong? @TheReal_jayD

https://www.aau.edu/who-we-are/our-members Go down the list no further than number 4 to find Arizona and their 87% acceptance rate. Of course this is no indication of the quality of their academics but to say AAU status dictates admission standards seems incorrect. Nebraska-Lincoln was the last school to lose AAU status back in 2011 so it doesn't seem like membership is often revoked either.

We just lost several receivers to graduation and the portal. I know we have many freshmen receivers coming in but a guy with some Big 12 experience doesn't hurt when we use so many receivers.

Rivals shows him at 6'4" 255 and Maxpreps at 6'4" 240. This stuff is rarely every accurate by the time they graduate. If the 247 profile is created as a sophomore, I think the player themselves would have to contact 247 to have the info updated which doesn't seem to ever happen.

Sure. Anything is possible.

It seems some are putting a bit too much trust in the QB evaluation considering Earle was the day 1 starter over Rogers. Nothing against Earle but his performance was not of the same level as Rogers'. All that to say, there's nothing wrong with saying you're currently disappointed with Morris' QB evaluation.

A few days ago we got 3 puzzle pieces but only 2 public commitments. Any knowledge on what the status of that 3rd one is?

He announced he's entering the portal. A bit late to the game as other QBs have been doing visits and already making public commitments. Either he was encouraged to move on, NIL money dried up for him at Texas, or he wants playing time and sees that won't happen with the golden child coming up.

Agree 100%. Kentucky has done well lately and he should get immediate playing time. They recently had a WR transfer get drafted in the 2nd round so the NFL potential is there. And like @GoGreenBeanssaid, they got a big QB transfer and it appears he was part of the Maclin recruitment.

6'5" 295 on TCU's roster.

Did you ever consider that was, in fact, not the money? Penn State, Ole Miss, Texas A&M and South Carolina offered and he still picked a basketball school. Maybe he just likes the fit at Kentucky.

Ok now hear me out... Maalik Murphy of Texas entered the portal and then we announce a 5th commitment?

2 more coming. He's listed as an OL on the TCU 2023 roster. https://gofrogs.com/sports/football/roster/jasper-lott/15239

I just have to ask, why is your salt shaker wearing TCU colors?

Will be released in a couple hours.

I'm confused by this comment. Rogers picked UNT over Cal last year so he didn't use us to get a step up. Maybe he just wanted to play close to home for a year and now wanted to play in a bigger conference?

OL from SFA has committed. I'm guessing this is the steak @TheReal_jayDreferenced.

I understand the apprehension. With the amount of P5 players in the portal nowadays compared to during the previous system, I think it's reasonable to assume there will be more P5 transfers who will become impact players at their new schools. Will our staff get the right guys? Time will tell. I do, however, find it funny how we look at a school like SMU who elevated their play with a bunch of P5 transfers but our P5 transfers are being doubted. Many of SMU's P5 transfers were not impact players at the P5 level but they became that at SMU. Look at our recent DB commits like Brice and what they have in common is length. What we really need now is linemen with size to transfer in. If we can elevate the DL play, our defensive backs are going to feast next season. Edit to add, I think Brice is our 3rd commit in the past week who played QB in high-school. That, to me, is a big deal considering many schools play their best athletes at QB and the intelligence it also takes to play that position. I think our coaches are going after the right attributes.

Two guys shooting 50% of your shots means either the ball isn't being spread around or others aren't passing off good shots too much. I think we've all seen our guys pass on open looks and then somebody ends up chunking up bad shots due to the shot clock. We got away with it Perry, doesn't mean we ran a good offense. Now it's being exposed.

I don't know, maybe I got comments and usernames mixed up. All I'm saying is, there's not statistical evidence that justifies Jones and Edwards taking the amount of shots they take with the amount of capable shooters on the team.
