There was also something about him not getting along with either Ffrench or Lockett according to Gerry.

I think you're confusing Moore with the kid from Hitchcock that committed to the aggies.

I halfass remember hearing somewhere that Lockett didn’t want to play with Moore. I don’t know if it was dislike or him worrying he would be #2

Kelshaun Johnson (Hitchcock WR) didn't want to play with Lockett, per Gerry

Lockett was never going to sign to play where Moore was heading. Texas would have taken Moore over Lockett. 

Johnson wanted to be the main man in his signing class and Lockett wouldn’t have enabled that for him.

If Clemson continues to struggle, maybe Wesco might want to come back closer to home.

Wesco was never interested in Texas. His sister played soccer at OU and he was way more interested in OU. 

I asked about him yesterday and, as of yesterday, two people anyone here would trust do not think he’d look our way should he enter the portal.  

Clemson mods seem to have real concern about multiple potential transfers and recruiting class attrition.  Quinn is one. Burroughs is another.  Both young WRs on campus as well.

This is correct. Moore didn’t want Momma’s family hovering around his life moment by moment.  

I remember when Waddle's name was called at the draft. He was back stage with a cluster of family/friends. 

His name got called. Family went crazy grabbing at him trying to get a hug. He stood up, head straight and ignored them all and walked off. 

Now, idk shit about fuck. But that sure had the " im tired as shit of my family hanging on me"

Having family wanting to spend your money or ride your coat tails ( mahomes  brother anybody?) Has gotta be drama nobody wants.

Is Woods gone to the draft this year? That’s one I wanted to see head our way last year 

I wanted him as well. That said, having watched him last year and more this year, I’m of the opinion that he sucks. He looks like Tarzan and plays like Jane. He’s a more acclaimed Marvin Jones Jr. I thought “well, he’s playing out of position for mediocre coaching” last year. Turns out he sucks at DT as well. He’ll probably get drafted high and suck for one of the franchises that perpetually sucks at the draft.

Kenny Baker is a witch; he would fix him.

By gawd, that sounds like Nick Caserio’s music!  Time to draft the DL version of Kenyon Green.

Cross-posting from Bobby's "Tuesday" post on the football board:

**

Texas recruiting continues to plug along.

The Horns have only offered one new player based off of senior film, Colorado linebacker Braylon Hodge.

But, in true Sark style, the Horns have stayed on two of their top prospects who committed elsewhere earlier this summer. The persistence seems to be paying dividends.

Receiver Jalen Lott (Oregon) and defensive end Dre Quinn (Clemson) are two targets who are very much in the crosshairs of Sark’s aim. Both are real possibilities for the Longhorns to flip.

Remember all the hand-wringing over recruiting in the months of June and July?

**

Also in recruiting, Louisiana defense tackle Dylan Berrymon is headed back to Ole Miss this weekend after spending last weekend in Austin.

Though he says he remains firmly pledged to the Longhorns, it’ll be the second trip to Oxford for Berrymon this season.

Hook’Em!

Florida 247 has a writer who wrote an article today that might as well be called "The Vultures Are Circling Florida's Carcass For These Recruits". He laments FSU being the leader at trying to flip guys, but Texas also gets mentioned for Guervil:

"Kendall Guervil

Guervil has been committed to Florida since July 2. A little over a month later, he shut his recruitment down with the Gators.

Florida State and Texas have been in touch with him, especially after his knee surgery due to his season ending ACL and meniscus tears. Guervil has had conversations with the staffs at both Texas and Florida State, but no visits have been set to either school. He made it to the Swamp for Florida’s matchup against USF."

Pay attention to this one. He may have already quietly visited Austin again. If not, it's got a good shot of happening. 

They also discussed Heze Kent, but no mention of Texas on that one.

Also, here's a list of confirmed visitors for the Texas/UF game. Some of these guys are targets for Texas, too. 

Spoiler

Florida’s is coming off three consecutive losses to start its 2026 season, but it is set to host arguably the biggest recruiting weekend of its season for its matchup against Texas on Oct. 4

The majority of the Gators’ 2026 class will be in attendance, and several 2027 and 2028 targets have also confirmed with Swamp247 and 247sports that they will be in the house for the Gators’ matchup with the Longhorns.

Lmao “matchup.”
 

I don’t know what’s funnier, the gymnastics performed to avoid calling this the “shocking upset” that it actually was, or pretending like the recruits witnessing the “matchup” in person is somehow a positive.

So no Dylan Berymon? Guervil would be a good replacement though.
