How did our recruits fare?

It's going to be a long day until our Horns kick off, so let's fill some of that time with updates on how our recruits are performing.  We already know very well how Gilbert and Paden Kelly did, but what about everyone else?

I'll start:

RB Chris Whaley of Madisonville racked up 207 yards rushing on 20 carries (a healthy 10.35 yds/att) with 4 tds on runs of 28, 22, 42, and 59.  The dude is a bruiser at 6'3'' and 230+ pounds, running in the mid 4.5 range.  Looks like a great RB/FB hybrid, or a hell of a linebacker with his size and speed if Mack wants him to.

WR Greg Timmons of Aldine Eisenhower and TE Barrett Matthews of North Shore played against each other Friday night, with North Shore winning 33-14.  Timmons caught one ball for 34 yards, and Matthews had 2 for 38, including a 36-yard TD.

How'd everyone else do?
