    E.J. Holland: Updates on Branson Bragg

      Hide contents

    — Branson Bragg loved his visit to Texas. On a scale of 1-10, I would give Texas a 10 for its efforts. The Longhorns really made Bragg a priority, and he got to spend a couple of hours with Herb Hand, which was a big priority going into the visit. Bragg also loved the spring game atmosphere and what he saw out of Hand as a coach. I think Texas has regained the pole position in this recruitment.

    — Bragg's father is a huge Texas fan and really loved going out to Austin for the spring game. It was actually his first time going out there with Bragg, so it held special meaning to him. Bragg's grandfather also tagged along for the trip, and I think the Longhorns did a terrific job of making them all feel like family.

    — Stanford is the biggest threat in this recruitment. Bragg is a high academic kid and loves what the Cardinal have to offer from an education standpoint. Bragg has been out to Stanford for an unofficial visit and is developing a good friendship with Walker Little, who hosted Bragg when he was in Palo Alto. I feel like Bragg is a little timid on heading out-of-state, but Little is certainly helping Stanford's efforts.

    — I talked to Crandall head coach Joe Dale Curry for a few minutes after practice. Curry raved about Bragg as a player and as a student and said he would be a big success wherever he lands. Curry, a Texas A&M grad, is fond of the Texas program and spoke highly of Tom Herman and Herb Hand. In fact, Curry called Hand one of the best offensive line coaches in the country.

    A kid named Branson Bragg from Crandall, Texas coached by Joe Dale Curry doesn't sound like a Stanford type. But I guess that's why you don't judge a book by its cover.

    I prefer Abilene.  Have family from there and the surrounding area.  Have a ranch near College Station so can judge both.  Nice people.  Better weather (CS is humid as fuck).  No aggy.  Close to good and cheap hunting.  Close enough to Taos for skiing.  Nice downtown area.  Hot chicks at the local colleges, especially ACU.  No maroon everywhere.  2 hours from Ft. Worth.  Perini Ranch.  The Beehive.  I prefer the people in West Texas than those in East Texas or Brazos Valley.

    you forgot an hour from mary's cafe.

    These last two visits were the first time he really heard Jimbo/Brewster's pitch.  He's seen everything Texas has to offer and still picked aggy after two visits. I wouldn't spend too much time worrying about a flip, unless aggy absolutely shits the bed on the field this year, which is not entirely out of the realm of possibility.

    I remember a tweet posted on shaggy that was probably like a year ago now where Leal talked about how great the SEC is and he wanted to play in that league.  At the time, I didn't think it was a good sign for UT but then we didn't hear anything about it and he visited Texas a ton so I figured we were in good shape.  It seems like he's always felt that way and aggy was able to capitalize. In a way, Poona getting DPOY in the B12 is great because it shows how good our coaching staff is, on the other hand, it's easy for the other conferences to negative recruit because the DPOY in the Big 12 didn't even get invited to the combine.  I'm sure aggy mentioned that and whored out the SEC constantly while he was on his visit, which led to him falling for the (used car) sales pitch.

    The combine point is something I haven't thought of. You gotta love seeing Zaycoven Henderson invited despite his arrests/assault on women yet a class act A+ person like Poona doesn't get invited. Eff the NFL. 

  4. Also it would be nice if the students showed up to the spring game, but I know they won't. A bunch of emo nerds on campus these days. Me and my friends would have used this as a pre-game for 6th. The nerds will be playing fornite in Jester instead.

    Bill Kurelic: Buckeyes’ set bar high, Wilson details OSU visit, remaining plan

     

      Reveal hidden contents

    Austin (Texas) Lake Travis wide receiver Garrett Wilson cut his long list of scholarship offers down to eight schools in early March, Ohio State, Texas, Oklahoma State, TCU, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Nebraska. Then at the end of March, Wilson narrowed his choices down to Ohio State and Texas and set official visits to those two school’s spring games, Ohio State this weekend and Texas the weekend of April 21.

    The first visit is now in the books as Wilson just finished his Ohio State official visit, a visit he made with his father Kenny and mother Candice. “It was awesome,” Wilson began when asked about the official visit. “I spent a lot of time with the coaches and Matthew Baldwin and some other players.” Baldwin is a freshman early enroll OSU quarterback who along with Wilson led Lake Travis to the Texas 6A state championship game last season.

    Wilson also made an unofficial visit to Ohio State in late March. “I thought nothing could top the first visit, but this one did,” Wilson said. “Everyone was great. The (spring) game was fun to watch. It was all great.” The Ohio State coaches let Wilson know what they have in mind for him if he were to become a Buckeye. “They see me as a versatile guy,” Wilson said. “They see me like a Michael Thomas. And they said I could line up outside or inside.”

    And Wilson saw Thomas on the visit as the former Ohio State wide receiver returned for the Buckeyes’ spring game. “Seeing him was cool,” Wilson said. Wilson lived in Dublin, Ohio for approximately six years until he was entering the 6th grade. “I grew up here,” Wilson said when asked about a possible return to central-Ohio. “My friends are here. It’s definitely a place I feel home at. My parents are good with it if I decided to come back here, they just want what’s best for me.”

    The Buckeyes have definitely put themselves in a good spot for Wilson. But there is still the official visit to Texas to go. “I’ll make the Texas visit and then I’ll make my decision within seven days,” Wilson said. “It’s just those two schools.” The 6-foot-0 and 185-pound Wilson is a 4-star prospect in the 247Sports Composite. He is the country’s No. 46 overall prospect, the No. 6 wide receiver, and the No. 7 prospect in Texas.

    Kurelic: "It will be up to Texas to change things in my opinion - I like where the Buckeyes currently stand."

     

    We need 90k at the spring game and 10+ tds from our qbs. Offer free Chipotle and get Orlando to stay vanilla.

    E.J. Holland on Garrett Wilson

     

    "It was hard for me to change my CB on Wilson since I've had it in for so long. But I heard Ohio State knocked it out of the park this weekend and now has an overwhelming edge. He is still going to make his official visit to Texas next weekend, and I'm told the Longhorns are going to roll out the burnt orange carpet. But right now, the Longhorns are playing catch up. It's going to take a perfect visit for UT to get Wilson."

    He hasn’t committed (publicly) yet so no need to freak out, yet. But if he does is it really surprising? Similar thing happened last year. Texas was in the lead for Perkins then on his OU visit he shut it down and committed. Pretty surprising.

    Regardless It’s still early so even if he does commit he already used his OV to aggy. ( he’s been quiet in the recruiting process so makes me wonder if he would even go back on his word if he committed? But he’s a 17 year old so they change their mind often)

    The Perkins situation isn't that similar. Perkins always had some interest in OU. Plus he's an OOS kid, Leal is a kid from down the highway that we've put a lot of time and resources into. I've lost count on the school visits.

    Brewster just fucking punked us. One visit was all it took. Ridiculous.

    they are doing a good job of keeping a lot of their recruiting on the DL under jimbo. i wouldn't be surprised if leal visited secretly. 

  9. When was the last time a recruit mentioned Mehringer? 

    This putz can't even put up a proper Hook'em and ran off our best receiver. 

    He should have been replaced as soon as the season ended. Him and a one or two other offensive coaches are dead weight. 

    Blaming Giles is bush league, this is on Herman for not getting another rain maker on defense. 

  10. Spieth is like 5 shots away from having double the amount of majors. he's going to have a jack nicklaus type of career with a shitload of top 2-3 finishes.

  11. sad to see jordan lose to such a shitty person. 

     

    ARRESTS, CHEATING, THEFT, DISMISSALS AND TEAMMATE HATRED

    It’s safe to say most reactions to Patrick Reed inside the golf world are colored by the stories and allegations of his college troubles, which have been reported at length by writers Shane Ryan, Stephanie Wei and Ian O’Connor. They either paint Reed as a true golfing villain, a loner prodigy or an insecure kid who never grew comfortable in his own skin.

    Reed, heavily recruited out of his hometown of Augusta, played one year at SEC power Georgia but was dismissed from the team for reasons still unknown. In his book about the PGA Tour, Shane Ryan said there was a code of silence regarding Reed’s time at UGA, describing it as a type of “golf omerta.” Ryan brought up whispers that Reed had cheated on the course during a qualifying round (trying to hit a better-positioned ball that wasn’t his), reported better scores than he’d actually shot and may have stolen from teammates ($400 and a Scotty Cameron putter, Ryan’s source said). Reed denied these claims and said he was ousted for multiple alcohol arrests. According to reports, those incidents were nothing more than the usual college-kid stupidity.

    But a Georgia assistant coach released a statement saying that Ryan’s report was accurate and that UGA chose not to associate with “Patrick as a person.”

    Reed then transferred to his hometown Augusta State, where his problems continued, but not enough to keep the small team from stunning the golf world to win two national championships. He didn’t socialize with his teammates and was so disliked that, allegedly, before Augusta State faced off in match play against Georgia with the NCAA championship on the line, Reed’s teammates told star Georgia player Harris English that while they wanted to win the title, they hoped he’d beat Reed. The title came down to that match and Reed won, 2 and 1.

    Wei also reported that ASU teammates twice suspected Reed of declaring lower scores than he’d shot and that the team had a meeting about whether to keep him on the team. Meanwhile, Reed went 6-0 in match play en route to those two NCAA championships.
