2010 GoBR Texas 25 Debut
First, a note about this list -- most recruiting rankings do a poor job of explaining how they go about ranking prospects and the great majority don't even seem to provide any explanations at all. Is it based on upside, on projections about how good a player could end up being or is it based on...

With Us Or Against Us: Texas Recruiting Momentum Continues
Somehow, the euphoria from the February Junior Days just didn't last long. Perhaps it was the fact that top-end prospects in the state like Jackson Jeffcoat, Jake Matthews, Corey Nelson, and Darius White had not yet made commitments by late spring/early summer.

Not after starting the season ranked as the number one team in the country. Not after the outgoing seniors won 130 games in their four seasons -- three of them will...

Second Junior Day Nets Seven New Commitments
It was an insanely wild weekend at the second Texas Junior Day, with the Longhorns picking up commitments from seven recruits, far above the number of 3-4 I expected to commit and putting the Longhorns at 19 commitments already. Even at the high range, I would not have guessed more than five....
