That doesn't make sense that Holtz won't offer this guy. I think our talent has gone down since Holtz has been our coach and he's had new facilities to recruit with.
Re: FB Recruits from Mesquite Horn
Need LB's in the worst way.
Re: FB Recruits from Mesquite Horn
Ferris is good. How many games did we go w/out him this year? He was back to 100% last night.

A lot of good players overlooked every year, because they are 2” short or .2 slow in the 40.

Yea, if we had a team full of slow midgets we would be undefeated.

Look around at some of the good teams out there, some of them are starting to see past that and pick up some good kids because they were looked over by other teams who stereotyped them. There are some coaches out there who cannot believe someone like Hunter Lee or Ray Holley can be a good ball player.

Looks pretty good to me. Actually wraps up and tackles instead of just hitting.

I'll take guys like Boston Scott and Trent Taylor any day.
Re: FB Recruits from Mesquite Horn
The Mesquite Horn stud WR Maureese Wren was offered by Tech today. This guy was 'THE offense" for Horn in their last playoff game. I hope we can get his signature!

He isn’t a safety.. but looks great as a LB. you have to remember that WM has a great coaching staff where this kid can come through unblocked on half their plays. I bet Tech sees him as a guy that has good numbers based on where he’s playing and how they utilize him. Is he better than Brandon Durman? Yes. Offer him. He can run. We need linebackers who can run.

Re: FB Recruits from Mesquite Horn
We could name a street after Holtz. After all, we named one after Reneau and he sold out his university to hire an LSU hall of famer as AD.
Whoops, thought I was in the Skip Holtz is the Greatest thread. Oh well.
