Just over a year ago he was leaning hard towards us per the $9.95ers, and even made the lists on who would commit next write ups.  FFW a few months later and it seems like we are trailing whomever he likes at the moment again

This. Porter and Vasek are the main two I'm looking at. If they don't offer Vasek this weekend or give him a good enough reason why they don't, he may move on. OU offered recently.

Not a lot of top level guys coming that you'd wanna take commits from this early. 

Cozart seems like he's ready to commit somewhere too, I wouldn't mind seeing us reel him in early.

Yeah, Gerry Hamilton mentioned that if Texas wants to stay involved in Vasek recruitment, offering him this weekend probably a must...

What’s this suppose to mean?? 

What do you think it means?  The hope was that Arch would commit in February and lead the recruiting class.  If he’s holding off until the fall then that keeps Owens, Cook, and probably some others from committing to Texas and open to other schools in the interim.  
 

Plus all the other top dudes are a) eager to see what Aggie will pay, b) just saw two years of Texas mediocrity or worse and it’s only those of us that are diehard fans that believe  5-7 represent hitting bottom.  The kids are in wait and see mode. 
 

Typically when you have a times like these, dating back to the McWilliams years when I first started following Texas athletics, UT could still count on a few lifers to populate the class early (Sam, for a recent example) and sometimes these guys would be great.  Sark and co, at least based on 2021, would prefer to go big game hunting than grab a few of these for momentum purposes.
