It wasn't going to be good if Hamm was right on his 15 predictions a month out from NSD 2016 either.

The meltdown will start long before then... more than likely tonight when EJ posts his update.

EJ after Dark post. satyanash will post it here at his earliest convenience.

If it's regarding Banks going elsewhere, should Surly really be worried?

Hasn't it been stated numerous times that Wright is a NSD guy or at one of the recruiting games?  And Shepherd said he's taking all 5 OV's and waiting until during/after the season.

I'm not taking Hamm's word or EJ's CB as fact, but regardless, it's hard to get worked up about possibly missing on Banks (although I'm sure some will) and not even because of our 2018 haul.  We can pretty easily find a guy comparable to Banks in this class, especially if we know we need to replace him in June.

I think this has more to do with Texas slow playing his commitment. It's a very weak year in-state for corners and I think the staff has their eyes oos

My best reading of the Banks tea leaves: 

Banks took an official visit ("OV") to Aggy at the end of April. 

EJ said that he doesn't expect Banks to OV Texas this summer. This comes after Texas asked him to push his OV back to come after his LSU visit. 

Multiple recruitniks don't believe Banks' LSU offer is committable at this time. LSU also asked him to push his OV back. 

On the surface, neither LSU or Texas appear to prioritizing him. Aggy does appear to be prioritizing Banks. 

I'm not sure on the LSU numbers, but Texas is running very low Spring/Summer OVs. The NCAA only allows a certain amount. Off the top of my head, Texas will be down to one OV after Marcus Washington and Pittman OV. 

Texas probably doesn't want to use their last early OV on Banks. This understandably pissed him off, pushing Aggy up his list. 

I wouldn't freak out too much. Banks could easily take a OV in the Fall. It'll be hard for any in state recruit to turn down USC tickets.

I don't have a good read on what's happening with the Banks recruitment, so I'm not particularly worked up about it.

What about UCLA? Haven't heard anything about them and you'd think things would be a little more lively with Chip over there.

He's not a great recruiter, and the administration is pretty meh on football, just like at Cal. He'll coach up who he gets, though.

Wasn't Adam Ulatoski an engineering major of some sort? He was in my calc 2 class in the spring of '06, and I think earned Academic All American honors.

I'm hearing the same thing as Bill. Banks doesn't have a commitable offer from anyone besides aggy. I'm hearing that the UT staff has basically stopped recruiting him because they have numerous guys on the board above him. He's also got some character issues that I can't get into but needless to say he's not Texas material. 

But all of this is very fluid and if he does eventually commit to the good guys just remember that I said it was fluid so I'm not wrong. 

Sounds like there might be some more hunting around Arizona for corners.

So just for clarification, should I always assume you're in troll mode or is this actually reasonably reliable info?

Wait. What?   I see tons of offers for this guy

My relationship with recruiting news is that I only want to be around when guys pick UT. It's the same reason not to check instagram or Facebook when you stay in on a Saturday night. There will be future weekends, but I don't want to know about all the fun I'm not having.

Nvm the sarcasm meter was off

Bank's 247 page says he's taking an OV to Bama' June 15th.

And lulz at aggy.  The spin should be good.  When he was thought to be a Texas lean he wasn't SEC good, "we will land much better", "to skinny to play big-boy SEC football", ect.

Banks didn’t impress me at all after watching the WR v DB camp highlights. Didn’t understand why he was a priority to begin with.

Other than Carter none of these in-state Corners are worth losing any sleep over if they don't come here IMO.  Still not sure what the deal is with Carter.  Off-field and/or trainer type deal?  Young isn't a Corner and Wolfe is meh' IMO.

He's a good developmental corner. Someone here previously comp'd him to Kobe Boyce, which I agree with. If we don't get him, I trust the staff and Jason Washington can identify and bring in someone similar if we miss on Banks. I'd like to have him, but I don't see it as a major miss if we don't get him.

Another Corner was supposed to OV that same weekend but didn't make it either.  Think it was Chester Kimbrough out of Louisiana.

What about the boys who play for the Rambling Wreck from Georgia Tech? There's gotta be a few good engineers at Georgia Tech.
