Texas Recruiting: 2011 and 2012 Narratives
2011 narrative complete. Recruiting momentum is a strange thing. On the surface, it seems like a nebulous concept and difficult to quantify. How about this for quantifying it: Texas hasn't landed a commitment in almost six months, since Malcolm Brown committed in the middle of August. Contrast that...

2011 Texas Big Board: The Quarterbacks
Quarterbacks on 2011 roster -- Garrett Gilbert (2012), Connor Wood (2013/14), Case McCoy (2013/14) Needs -- Zero or one. Philosophically, the Longhorns prefer to take one quarterback in every class, so they will certainly go after one. Targets -- Name School JD invite? Commitment...

Afternoon Brewsky Goes to Summer Camp
Or, it's hard to de-commit from Texas at a Texas camp. Rejoice, Longhorn fans -- the worst thing that can happen at the Texas camp on Sunday is that a couple of 2010 targets don't show up. While that certainly would be disappointing, especially in the cases of Darius White, Lache Seastrunk, and...
Morning Coffee is a JW Walsh Fan
No early favorites for Walsh. Last week, I introduced Denton Guyer quarterback JW Walsh, son of the head coach and top 2011 prospect. A program with a recent history of incredible futility, the sophomore quarterback, along with 2010 defensive tackle commit Taylor Bible, helped the team recover ($)...
Morning Coffee Takes First Look at 2011
Running backs dominate early 2011 conversation. Currently sitting at 21 commitments, the 2010 class is essentially done, with the staff simply waiting for the last several blue-chips to make their decisions.
