Not getting to excited about this committ. Don't blame the kid for continuing to take trips. It's your only chance to get wined and dined as a 17 year old kid. Lets just hope he doesn't end up in t

There is no winning with this group. Half are clamoring because we have no commits and the other half are saying it's too early for commits because they might be gone by signing date. Admittedly

I agree GrayEagle. Some posters gripe about the amount of stars our recruits receive but then gripe when the same level recruit signs elsewhere. It is pretty funny when you stop and think about it. S

Looks like they switched to the run due to the rain. 2 catches for 55 yards and TD. 1,289 yards and 14 TDs on the year.

Exactly. Kid is dynamic. SOC will play the winner of Mansfield summit and wylie next week. They have a very good chance to keep this playoff run going and it'll be fun to see how Fonzale's playmaking abilities impact the games as the stakes get higher.

If wylie wins, then I'll go to that game. And if the secondary of wylie plays as they have, fonzale should have a huge night.

The game was @ AT&T Stadium. Fonzale finished with 5 catches for 136 yards and 2 TD's. Davis is actually the 2nd best receiver on the team. 6-4 junior JF Thomas will be a high major next year and also had about 5-6 receptions (for about 150 yards and 2 TD's). Junior RB and UT commit, Jordan Stephenson, ran for over 200 yards. The game ended about 12:40 AM after the Highland Park/Kimball game. SOC took a knee near the goal to end the game to settle for a 63-37 victory.

Davis has 68 catches for 1421 yards and 16 scores while Thomas has just 30 catches for 489 yards this year, but he does have 13 touchdowns.

I haven't watched a SOC game live, but just going off stats it's not even close who their number one receiver is, except maybe near the goal line, and it's Davis. Curious as to why you think Davis is second best behind Thomas.

Senior highlights are up. Very impressive. Kid can flat out scoot. Kid could help replace Brelan on offense and special teams. Absolute terror with the ball in the open field.

Do yourself a favor and watch these. He's a football player. Not just an athlete or a track guy, but the kid plays tough. Watch the first play, play at 5:05, his kickoff coverage at 6:08, and the last play just to show his versatility. Will be an asset from day 1

I'm at the 4:27 mark and he still hasn't been tackled!! It's been impressive thus far. Kid has great vision, which is weird to say for a WR. What's been nice about his highlights is that it's not just him doing work with bubble screens, he can get open downfield as well.

Spoiler alert! He finally get's taken down at the 6:40 mark.

Completely agree. I thought the same thing, and that he read his blocks well. I like the idea of giving him handoffs, whether out of the backfield or fly sweeps (maybe wildcat, watch the last play), and for sure he looks like he could have great return skills. Definitely would be a good kickoff returner IMO, not everyone is suited for punt returner but he might be that too.

Exciting player to have coming in.

Area's leading receiver getting some post season recognition. Xavier Washington as well. Also, do your self a favor and watch Fonzale's highlights if you haven't yet. Kid can ball.

There are faster guys out there, but he can find and exploit a seam where it looks to be sealed tight. Yep, guy's a football player. An outstanding football player. QB looks to have a nice touch on the ball, too--is he getting any attention?

He's committed to UTSA.

      A few HSO's

      I was kind of hoping this HSO thread would help me get over the hump and renew the two season tickets I’ve had since the days of dirt at Fouts Field and the old cement urinals there. Unfortunately I, probably like some others, can’t seem to generate any old fashioned enthusiasm for the new version of “ here today gone tomorrow, pass through jocks . Somehow there just seems to be a missing piece; commitment, loyalty, alma mater. Yesterday’s discarded intangibles. Well, today is deadline day, can I break an old habit?

      I gave you a +1, but I also suspect he would not get along with the Grants and Ross's of our world. Would be loads of fun and wins, though.

      Best BBQ in each Texas college football town

      For anyone who hasn't experienced the greatness of Hutchins, you should treat yourself the next time you are in either Frisco or McKinney. Some of the best brisket I've had (and other good stuff too). And... since UNT has expanded into Frisco, I guess we can claim Hutchins as a UNT BBQ place 😎

      A few HSO's

      There’s no contradiction. The average fan/alumni aren’t paying NIL, it’s the big donors and corporations. And they’re only doing it because that’s the way it is under the current, broken system. My 2nd point is that comparing college coaches with college players is neither a fair nor equal comparison.
