Is there another commit to follow? Looks like this kid is from Amarillo. Regardless, I like the momentum we seem to be gaining heading towards NSD! GMG!

His huddle says Amarillo, I thought you said Fort Worth?

My Jimmies are thoroughly rustled ? You're good, always glad to get a recruit regardless of where they are from. Is this a scholly or BS?

UNT gridiron hasn't posted anything either. I would hope it is a PWO.

BLUE SHIRT

 

[Cerebus]

Looks like he was going to sign with A&M-Commerce until we offered.  

[MGNation92]

Well, here's hoping the staff really knows how to identify talent

So we are just signing this class along with next years class now? How many BS is this now? 7?

I'm gonna trust there's a game plan here. I know you have to fill the roster but he already got himself into a position this year where we can't sign a full class. Isn't that what McCarney did that eventually lead us to less than our allowed scholarship players amount?

Worked out last time Eke found a raw Defensive end with zero D1 offers 

[Aldo]

Need some of that speed on the edges

Hambone was a 3 star recruit with 2 other FBS offers, plus several FCS offers.

Yeah, I thought we flipped Hambone late.  TXSt maybe?
