Some notes from Gerry/Bobby/Vogel OTF streams from May 6th and May 7th
MAY 6th STREAM
THEY LOVE COLE
Who's the best?
Jay'Vion Cole's DA BEST!!JOSH PETTY (5* OT)
- Kyle Flood went by his school last Tue
- Currently has Oregon scheduled June 14-16
- Looking at visiting Texas instead on those dates, moving Oregon to a diff day
NICK BROOKS (4* OT)
- Visiting Texas June 14-16
- GA favorite; GA/TX top two; Kyle Flood visiting in a couple of weeks
LINEBACKER CLASS
- 3 for sure
- Barnes committed, Texas leads for Pettijohn
- Matai Tagoa ("stud, stud, stud") SC commit, Jonathan (Dante?) Cunningham visiting 14-16; Javar Thomas offered, but not visit set up in Spring, which is a concern re him
- Transfer DTs - juice worth squeeze?
- Kevin Wynn visiting 14th - 16th
PORTAL
- Right now, don't see another definite guy in the portal, at any position
- Doesn't include grad transfers … unlikely to be high level players
- 3 or 4 considered portal, only Blackshire pulled trigger; was running third team
- Punter may be a grad transfer possibility
FAVORITE DT RECRUITS
- Brandon Brown
- Josiah Sharma
- Kevin Wynn
- Zion Williams
- Myron Charles would be the 5th
- Derry Norris sleeper
- DJ Sanders - fine as 4th; needs time to develop
- FYI, Gerry raves about Brandon Brown (called him a 5 star in his book)
- Likely 4 HS d-linemen; 3 for sure, likely 4
Again, likely to go to the portal for dlinemen after this season
Amari Niblack running up the seam, could go for 80; need to defend the deep ball vs. Niblack, as opposed to Sanders
Just heard from Nick Townsend - his official visit to Texas is still on
MAY 7TH STREAM
Wouldn't disagree with reports that Texas is on top for Jaime FF, but things could change
French is an early enrollee
Flood going out to see Fasusi, etc..
Yesterday, thought Texas may be done with schollies, but don't think so anymore.
3 schollies left.
Scouring the portal for -
A) Immediate help (DT, DB, punter … )
B) Or smaller school guy looking to move up - even frosh or redshirt frosh (not Cormani)
Don't see Sark taking any Texas kid that has entered the portal, back
John Mills (OT) - Texas and Washington, Texas is the favorite, need to close out in June
Jackson Christian - Texas/Ags - curious whether he moves his timeline up
John Turntine ('26) - ahead of where Banks was
Troy Huhn or Dia Bell - Texas QB may be one of those two ('26)- 20

What was up with Blackshire? Seemed like he had a ton of upside.
The downside ... he weighed a ton.

Wells - James Simon CB to Texas.
FYI,
- both On3 and 247 rate Simon above Jordan Davison, in their own rankings.
On3 position ranking
- Simon #8, Davison #18
247 position ranking
- Simon #8, Davison #10
Will be interesting to see whether/how this changes, if Simon and Davison commit to Texas & Ohio State, respectively.

So, the Aggies and transfer WRs.
They were focused on two WRs - Lambert-Smith (Penn State), and Sam Brown (UH). MOds/subscribers seemed to think more highly of Brown.
Lambert-Smith chose Oregon.
And so the Ags leapt to the ineluctable conclusion that that could only augur well for their chances with Brown ... he would be a good Ag!! Whoop! Canuck!! (Or whatever they yell.)
Sam Brown committed to Miami.
A few choice cuts, for your enjoyment (and note the upvotes, as indicative of the zeitgeist):
(From a diff thread, re: a post about Miami getting aggressive w/ NIL.)
Do NOT accuse them of lacking self-awareness and introspection.
And ... let's end with an admittedly painful admission, shall we?

Texas OV June 21st.
Four-star edge Marco Jones sets four official visits
Danville (Calif.) San Ramon Valley edge Marco Jones has locked in four official visits...

SpoilerFour-star edge Marco Jones sets four official visits
Danville (Calif.) San Ramon Valley edge Marco Jones has locked in four official visits...
Brandon Huffman (247Sports)
Danville (Calif.) San Ramon Valley edge Marco Jones has set four official visits.
Last week, Jones, the No. 1 defensive recruit in Northern California, named a top ten of, alphabetically, Alabama, Florida State, Maryland, Michigan, Oklahoma, Oregon, Penn State, Texas, Texas A&M and USC.
On Friday, Jones announced his four scheduled official visits.
Jones is set to visit Michigan on May 31, Alabama on June 7, Oregon on June 14 and Texas on June 21.Each of those four schools made his top ten.
Alabama: "The Tide are rolling with the new staff and the depth of pass rushers in the past makes them one of my top schools."
Michigan: "The new coaching staff at Michigan is great and every year they compete for the national championship."
Oregon: "Oregon is coached by a defensive minded head coach in Dan Lanning and always has success on the defensive side of the ball and at my position."
Texas: "Texas is another school with an elite coaching staff and elite defense's year in and year out."
Jones is planning to sign in December and enroll in January.
A four-star in the industry-generated 247Sports Composite Rankings, Jones is the No. 13 edge nationally and the No. 9 prospect in the Golden State in 2025.
He has already been selected to play in the 2025 All-American Bowl in San Antonio.

(We're evidently looking at bringing the Michigan State DL, Simeon Barrow, in for a visit; also interested in his DL team mate Derrick Harmon.)

Gonna post here until the site comes back up. Some notes to pass along --
— TCU defensive line transfer Damonic Williams is a priority target for Texas. And the Longhorns rolled the red carpet out for him this week on his official visit. It was well received, too. As Horns247 noted ahead of his visit, both Williams’ little brother Josh and his mother were in attendance for the visit. Josh is a very influential person in his older brother’s decision, and originally helped him pick TCU. Williams’ mother is from the same South Bay Area of Los Angeles that Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian is from, making her more comfortable with Sark. Any familiarity helps when potentially picking a school over a thousand miles from home. Williams will visit LSU and Mizzou next. A decision will be made next week. I still believe this will come down to Oklahoma vs. Texas, but we’ll see how the next two visits go. I believe Texas definitely helped itself in the race for Williams this week.
— Williams is obviously a priority but so is the position as a whole in this transfer window, so Texas is certainly conducting its due diligence. Horns247 is told Michigan State defensive line transfer Simeon Barrow Jr. is someone Texas has a lot of interest in. The Longhorns are looking at bringing Barrow in on a visit in the next week, sources tell Horns247. The Georgia native tallied 36 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks last season. He graded out at 72.2 per PFF last season. LSU, Missouri, and Miami, among others are all in the picture.
— Barrow’s teammate at Michigan State, defensive lineman Derrick Harmon, is another player the Longhorns have interest in. No visit plans are in place at this point, though. But it’s worth keeping an eye on his process as well. He graded out at a 78.4, per PFF last season, good for the No. 1-ranked defender on Michigan State’s roster, with a minimum snap count. He racked up 40 tackles, 3.5 tackles for a loss, and 2.5 sacks for Sparty last season.
— As for defensive back, the names are a little more murky. We’re told the biggest priority Texas at the cornerback position is instincts and speed. Obviously the big name that everyone wants to know about is Arizona’s Tacario Davis. He’s been in the portal since January, but has gone through spring practice in Tucson with the 1s. Davis also has a no-contact tag in the portal, but it’s worth noting that’s more of a courtesy indicator for a prospect that already knows where he wants to go. It doesn’t actually mean teams can’t make contact. That’s not hinting at anything, just the situation. We’ll keep an eye on him as Arizona wraps up spring ball this weekend as to whether he really wants to go somewhere else or if he’s staying put with the Wildcats. Any other names that surface we’ll keep you up to date as we can.

Lulz.
So, favored in 6 of the 7 games for which odds have been released.
But it gets better.
Here are the 5 games for which odds haven't been released:
They are almost certain to be favorites in all of these games.
So yeah, as of now, the Aggies are likely to be favored in 11 of 12 games next season.
Is DraftKings entering the rollercoaster business?
