DGB to visit Austin this weekend?

Looks like it's going down. Likely a short stay, but getting DGB to campus is a big step. Of course, Texas will have to make a strong impression quickly because DGB has already made four trips to Norman and knows the Oklahoma program well. -- GoBR--

Orangebloods

Apparently orangebloods has confirmed this through multiple sources. At least that’s what the said in the text I received earlier this morning. Pretty exciting if true.

Interesting development

Sooners are keeping their fingers, legs, and eyes crossed hoping that 2011 Five Star WR Trey Metoyer can pass his classes at Tyler Junior College and qualify to enroll for the fall.

If so, perhaps DGB will decide that he doesn’t need to follow the top WR recruit from the prior year who will also have a year of experience on him. DGB is so good that he could probably compete for time no matter what, but the Sooners are stacked at WR and if they don’t get a good qb (Kiel is still pondering b/n OU and Bama) it may be enough to move DGB toward stud QB Conner Brewer and the good guys in orange.

Don't be such a baby.

That made me feel smart. Thanks for that.

Don't go to their site if you want to live to tell about it

They keep wanting to talk about VY’s wonderlic score and I don’t even know what that is.

I keep going to c&c to see you duke it out with the sooners. Great stuff!

oh, the one he took that was incorrectly administered?

key words

It was “hope” “pass” “junior college” that I was referring to. In retrospect, that was a bit judgemental.

I don't think DGB is going to be worried about competing for time...

From what I’ve seen, he will be the No. 1 option at WR wherever he goes about as soon as he sets foot on a college campus. It’s not a stretch to say he’s the best WR prospect since Randy Moss.

I think you could argue that a stacked WR corps would actually be a plus. Defenses that focus on rolling coverage his way or jamming him at the line would pay the price.

4pm update from Hookem.com states that the family is indeed en route to Austin. Great news indeed.

Conner Brewer throwing to DGB

Could that be one of cellege football’s all-time greatest QB/WR tandems? Can’t wait to find out.

Come on, man. It’s Friday. Why would you want to harsh my self-acknowledged overly optimistic buzz, huh?

I'm not convinced there will ever be a good time. :-)

NFL wr core

Jones, DGB, White, Shipley, and Davis. That’s if DGB comes.

I'd love to see White really step up

He’s a kind of quiet guy, but we need to see him bring it

Just wondering

What are the numbers between how many wide outs Texas has put into the Nfl vs how many OU has.

I remember Mack once saying texas has the highest number of people in the nfl out of all colleges so I imagine we could have the edge but I really dont know.
Ill do the research later. Just wondering if anyone knew a rough estimate.

As of last year

Texas had the most players in the NFL…Since there is no NFL right now, I’m not sure where we stand. The numbers I saw of Texas being number 1 was overall players, not by position. That would be interesting. I’m sure OU beats in OL numbers….at least I would think so.
