I’m not dumb enough to ask specifics on each players deal, but do you know if the 10k number for foreign students was a hurdle in this recruitment? I’m not financially savvy or really money literate to be honest but if that were the case couldn’t the student in question, not necessarily this one, just open a trust as it wouldn’t be earnings reported by him but by the trust? Sorry if this isn’t the appropriate thread or if I’m asking too much. I’m just very very curious about the ways Texas is able to get things to work the way we need it to with regards to NIL and you’re the poster with the loudest and usually most informed voice on the subject.
Hank south was also parroting him, basically saying that they like ojo and wright as tackles and they really want turnstone so he might get forced inside. Especially with them both approaching 6’8.
Carlton is a must get but I don’t think that’ll be over till signing day. Ojo looks like our priority at tackle, but with all highly ranked guys, it’ll probably go the distance too.
Does it really matter though? It seems like he lied to the staff. I get that he’s been a priority for us but canceling saying you have a family thing and then showing up several states away. I can’t find why it would matter who he lied to in this case. It’s odd and problematic.
I could be misremembering, but didn’t they suffer some late injuries leading to a lot of shuffling? To me this reads that the ones who came in and started later in the season will either be threatening their job, or the back up’s want to cash in on their starting experience.
