than Rak to show a prospective DE recruit around!

I know Kennard is highly regarded and I recall reading how in the last USC rising stars camp, Kennard was a man among boys, but still, comparing him to Orakpo or even better is a little premature. Orakpo is absolute beast and just a athletic freak in the weight room as well. I’m a huge SC fan, but I’ll readily admit that Orakpo is just as good as anyone on the so called, “greatest of all-time SC defense.” (Don’t you just love all the USC hyperbole?).

Either way, it’s certainly a two horse race between SC and Texas for this young man’s services. Although I would love to see him in cardinal and gold, it would not shock me at all to see him pick Texas.

Can you imagine having no less than three five-star defensive linemen in one recruiting class? DT McFarland, DEs Okafor and Kennard…that would be a big factor in establishing this program as THE team in the conference and a top-three program nationally. Things are not looking good as far as any of the four big remaining recruits (Kennard, McFarland, Jones, and Kirkpatrick), but it’d be great to get one or two of them.

Any other offers on the table?

Is Craig Loston still in the running? Or is he more or less set on another school?

I don’t guess there’s any chance we can get Christine Michael to come to UT since he’s high on A&M, huh? He’s the best undecided RB in Texas w/UT on his list. I was hoping we could steal him away. Who names their boy Christine?…

Any news on Kendall Kelly?

Has anybody got an update on J. McFarland??

Kennard is in a win win situation. Both programs can w/o a doubt lead him to the NFL and help him win a National Title in the process. The thing that Texas may have in its favor is it prob has a little less depth on the DL than USC. The hope would be that Kennard, McFarland would look at the possiblities of talent and longevity of having Okafor, Kennard, McFarland and Calvin Howellon campus for 3 maybe 4 years will help them dominate in Will Muschamps high pressure defense. It is hard to a starting defenseive line put together in 1 recruiting class but it looks like it could be a possiblity only time will tell. I would like to see them hurry up and commit so it might create a waterfall effect for Jones and Kirkpatrick. Even if they do not come here the level of players they already have on the defensive front is still pretty strong. Muschamp has plenty to work with in his first class.

I personally would have to question the character of any big time recruit that was born and raised in the State of Texas that would leave the state and go somewhere else to play football. With traditional powers of Texas and Texas A&M and the recent success of Tech and Texas Christian why would you want to leave the state. There are more things to take into consideration coaches, amount of TV time things like that but Texas has no problem getting on TV. TCU is on National TV 3 or 4 times a year because they play on Thurs night alot. Texas A&M has no problem getting on TV when its program is successful. I do understand why some recruits have to leave this state. Texas produces so much big time talent but why would any big time recruit want to leave Texas and go to Norman? Yes I know my dream job has always been to go work on the Mile of cars in Edmond and Norman as well. Hey it doesnt get any better than watching a oil pump go up and down while having sex on the hood of your Jeep. Someone needs to grab these goofs leaving the state and say son if you leave Texas go somewhere worth a damn. Florida, Miam , Florida State, Southern Cal or even Colorado for that matter. Dont forget you get sexual favors from the ski bunnies and dang the women on South Beach and Rodeo Drive are pretty fine! What does Oklahoma have to offer? Lawlessness!
