2021 Recruiting - Football

TFB reported today that Texas has been informed by USC transfer LB Palaie Gaoteote that he won't be moving to Austin.

He is now expected to pick Ohio State.


Thats a shame. Hope we are able to prove UT is headed in the right direction this fall and more pieces will fall into place! Its 8am and OU still sucks!
 
Saw a report 'horns are interested in former LSU QB TJ Finley.

Great talent, but not sure why Sark would want to muddy the QB picture with him and the future recruiting.

One original report of Finley & the Horns came out of Sports Illustrated, which can mean the story has all the legs of a catfish.
 
^Sabrehorn, that was my thought, also. There is talent in the QB room at Texas - and the potential for some great recruiting of QBs. Why would Sark be interested?

The question is which family member/friend indicated that Texas was interested? The only reason for Sark to be interested is for an experienced guy in the event the Texas starter is knocked out early in the season.
 
Whoever starts we are in good shape even if 'a qb is knocked out'

that is something that all teams have to deal with every year.

This type scenario always reminds me of the '77 Horns. Number 1 and 2 QB's go down in the OU game, and Randy McEachern comes in and the 'Horns go on undefeated in the OU game and through the next 7 games of the regular season. And, by the way, end up #4 in the nation.

You need 3 quality QBs if you can get them, IMHO.

If I recall, major Applewhite was 3rd team, and became the starter because of injuries in one weekend

It helps if you have Earl in your backfield.
 
and (insert 3rd QB name) has Bijan in the backfield...

Not saying I wouldn't like a third quarterback in the room (we do actually with Wright and Ballard) so if he came then great, but I think the focus is, and should be, the class of '22 and beyond.
