Gilbert Target And Friend To Walk On At Texas
Garrett Gilbert and Paden Kelley won't be the only former Lake Travis Cavaliers re-uniting on the Texas campus in the fall. Gilbert's long-time friend and favorite target, receiver Cade McCrary, will be an invited and preferred walk-on at Texas. McCrary, of course, has connections to Texas football, as he played an important role in introducing Gilbert to the Longhorns through his father, Hardee, the former defensive ends coach and recruiting coordinator for Texas.
My take: While McCrary is an excellent high school receiver, with more than 1,700 yards and 24 touchdowns last season, I would classify him as a product of the two systems in which he played and his close connection with one of the top quarterbacks in the country. Considering the incredible receiving depth in the state and the depth on the team or committed to play for the Longhorns, I just don't see McCrary seeing the field for the Longhorns unless the coaches really strike out on several evaluations.

If nothing else
I’m sure he’ll make a fine roommate for GG while on campus.

A Shipley clone until the next Shipley hits campus?
Still a Blaine Irby fan

anything is possible
Sometimes that ryhthym and intuition is better than raw talent. We do have a lot of talent lined up for 2010, but 2009 is not big on receivers so anything is possible. Look at Gideon being one of the lowest rated recruits, but being one of the first to step up big.

Rhythm, intuition, and an established and long-standing rapport with the likely Longhorns QBOTF…
