If Texas is coming all the way out to Gig Harbor (nice place) to recruit a kid, he must be good.

 

[Sgt John]

Yeah, we normally wont go outside the state.

I see why, he is a tight end. Also read he had offers from alot more places than Texas and Washington.

I heard that Texas wanted to turn him into an OT. He is 6'7", 260, and runs a 4.6. He could easily handle 300+ lbs.

This thread is too late for me....LSU has already signed 17. Shaping up to be one of the best ever classes in BR

That's commitments I believe of the verbal kind that can be changed at the drop of a hat.

you're right...poor choice of word on my part

 

[mudloggerone]

Though they might as well be signed Bayou because us losing a commitment is rarer than hen teeth, lol.

A DB, at White Castle? That's where I'd look for linemen.

Thats stupid if its true. We dont need linemen. We need a dominant TE.

Ohio State Class of 2011 Highlights

• Braxton Miller - QB - Rival's #1 Duel Threat QB
• Brian Bobek - C - Rival's #2 Center
• Kenny Hayes - DE - Rival's #2 Strong DE
• Steve Miller - DE - Rival's #10 Rush DE
• Chase Farris - DE - Rival's #12 Strong DE
• Michael Bennett - DT - Rival's #1 DT
• Nick Vannett - TE - Rival's #12 TE

Not looking too bad right about now. Braxton and Bennett play in the same conference less than hour from me, may have to go see that game this year.

Kasen Williams to Washington.

Husky Football Blog | Another new Husky --- Kasen Williams picks UW | Seattle Times Newspaper

Williams is rated as a five-star recruit by Scout.com and the No. 4 receiver in the country. However, Allen Wallace, the national recruiting editor for Scout.com, told me recently that Williams "is the No. 1 wide receiver in the United States, period. If Washington ends up reeling in Kasen Williams, that's another strong move on their part.''

Not a huge surprise. His father played for the Huskies from 1979-1982.

Edit:

Here he is announcing his decision by putting on his dad's old jersey:

If you are in a dynasty NFL FFL, do yourself a favor and draft him now. 3 TDs in his first 4 games.

 

[Sgt John]

Well we seem to have found a TE...and picked up an offense for good measure.
