    Based on all the info our there, there are just two things that are relatively certain in the Broughton recruitment:

    1.) Mom likes Texas. 

    2.) $9.95 crowd knows jack shit.

    Who knows how it will shake out, but the doom and gloom may have come too early. With family being such a big part of his recruitment it is hard to believe Texas is out of it with mom thinking UT is best for him. Of course, I think you still take the field over Texas. 

    I’m not saying anything, but reading that reminded me of Demarvin Leal

    I'm telling you factually that he wasn't fired, didn't get in trouble, wasn't encouraged to look around, or anything. It was 100% his side. 

    I don't like him, but you guys are tilting at windmills 

    This. He wasn’t fired.

    Well, Roach is replacing EJ. They'll need a new part-timer. Probably some just out of college kid like Chris Hummer used to be for Horns247.

    Lol. Chris Hummer is a national reporter now for 247. He’s not unemployed. I can speak with certainty that he won’t become a recruiting reporter.

    I think Hester could potentially be down to ditch his buddies for Texas

    Omeire wins a lot of reps at camps, so rankers might not drop him too far. He supposedly has tremendous body control, fluidity, and hands to go with good size, but obviously the speed and quickness are a concern with separating against top corners. He might be a Devin Funchess type where it's either possession chain moving routes or jump balls down the sidelines. I don't care if we land him or not 

    Except Omeire doesn't win a lot of reps at camps. Still more than most though.

    Maybe someone in the 995 world will write an article to document this insane racist clown, his history, his continual pretending to be a longhorn saying racist shit at recruits, etc. 

    Will Baizer? Eric Nahlin? Scipio?

    Already did it.

    Fine, fine. From EJ in a Kroger parking lot

    - EJ's numbers are low b/c of his marriage + honeymoon, so he's had to pump out a lot more articles lately. Apparently he's buying groceries to cook vegan chili tonight. EJ's wife has him on a diet even though he's 175 lbs.

    - Buy/Sell: Texas lands 2 of Ringo, Flowe, Milton, and Smalls. EJ would pass on that bet, 2 of them is tough but realistic. Ringo has been to Texas twice and is the best bet w Westbrook as his current coach and Beck as his school's former coach. Him and Milton will both be back for official visits, probably. Others are longer shots because they haven't visited. They probably won't be a package deal.

    - Texas will continue to recruit at a national level. Lathan Ransom is another potential visitor, as is Damien Sellers. Johnny Wilson said he never considered going OOS until Texas came calling.

    - EJ's not sure why A&M backed off of CTJ. He had a terrific junior season and Fisher visited his high school a lot, but then contact dropped off and Texas is in the best spot to land him.

    - Most under-rated prospect so far is Joshua Eaton, outside the Texas top 50. Lot of P5 offers w/ A&M adding their name tonight. Another underrated kid is Jerrin Thompson from Lufkin, great as a nickel prospect. Thinks Texas should take a harder look at him.

    - Eaton and Watts are very similar players. Watts is a bit thicker, Eaton is more athletic. Both very raw in their technique. Would put them in the same rankings range.

    - Demond Demas apparently joined the Periscope, along with Tommy Brockermeyer who had a dominant day in Dallas.

    - Majors will be a very good center. EJ is OK with his drop in the rankings, he's very intelligent and a potential multi-year starter but won't wow you with his athletic traits or upside.

    - Charles Wright from Austin High is a kid Roach likes. Could be a guy that rises.

    - EJ now getting grief for the Noah Cain saga.

    - Regarding receivers, Texas is in a great spot with Johnny Wilson. Troy Omeire and Demas are the two elite in-state WRs, and Texas is in a tough dogfight with A&M for both with Demas already an A&M commit. Troy is visiting Texas on March 9th and it'll be huge in his recruitment. UT is in a good position with Quinten Johnston (recently got a rankings bump) and JJ Hester out of Oklahoma.

    - Something about BBQ, and Whataburger vs. In-n-Out.

    - EJ would take Johnny Wilson over Demond Demas. Demas is a better athlete with a higher ceiling. Wilson is a more polished prospect and is gigantic. What stands out for Johnny is his route-running. Doesn't struggle to get in and out of breaks like Brennan Eagles did, he glides through his routes. Can't go wrong with either.

    - EJ is close to putting in Texas CBs for Johnny Wilson but he wants to wait and see with him. Washington and Oregon are the two biggest threats. Could legitimately run a 4.5.

    - EJ still thinks JaQuinden Jackson should be a five-star. Next Cam Newton, etc. etc. Not expecting an early commitment. Texas should tell him he can play any position "because he's awesome".

    - O-line needs for the 2020 class have been addressed, in a good spot with D-line as well. Need corners.

    - Princely Umanmielen joined the Periscope, asked EJ if he's into fashion. EJ reeled off some brand names.

    - Texas wants to bring in Damien Sellers for a visit. EJ doesn't pay to go for tournaments, his expenses are covered as a 247Sports reporter for the most part.

    - Darnell Washington is a real-deal, five-star stud. Was awesome this weekend.

    - @OnAComputerrecommended that EJ visit P. Terry's Burger Stand. EJ absolutely hated it, said it was a 'trash burger'. More BBQ talk.

    - EJ really likes Josh White. Another down year for LBs in-state but White's a brought spot along with Brennon Scott. Similar to David Gbenda.

    - EJ's wife still disagrees with him over his hairstyle. EJ would never move to Austin, says he's 'team Dallas'.

    - Jase McClellan will be tough to flip from blOU. Texas should have offered him earlier, they may have secured his commitment first.

    - Texas will take two safeties and a nickel. This is not as good of a DB class in-state as 2018 but it could be comparable. Lorando Johnson, RJ Mickens, CTJ, and Dwight McGlothern are EJ's favourite in-state DBs this cycle.

    Compared to other fast food burgers. I’m not gonna try to compare it to a legit sit down burger place.

    Just checked out TFB’s OL/DL breakdown. Broughton is a beast and reminds me a lot of Leal, except I think Leal might have a more explosive first step. 

    Baizer mentions that Broughton’s trainer was yelling at him in one of the vids. I know CTJ has mentioned Lyles being involved, but I don’t think that’s who Baizer was referencing. @OnAComputer the trainer wasn’t Lyles, was it?

    also, it’s  insane that Collins is already almost 250. He has a ton of filling out to do. He reminds me a lot of Omenihu, except about 1-2 years ahead of Omenihu at this stage. Collins could turn into an absolute beast.

    It wasn’t Lyles
