It's just like any other fricking initials for a name. It's no different than BJ or JD or any other similar nickname. His first name is Trey.

One is from Arkansas. I would hope that, at the very least, you can keep your in state kids. Good luck keeping the Texas kid. 2015 is a long way away...

At least three more wide outs, and we're banking on Matt Elam as well. I don't know beyond that.

We've beat out plenty of big schools for our kids as well. Ohio State, Florida, South Carolina, and others just off the top of my head.


Who exactly did you beat OSU and Florida out for?

UK and tu with almost identical classes so far. Who does less with more than Texas, and more specifically Mack brown? He got lucky with Vince Young.

I think UK is getting a bunch of kids with potential to perform, and obviously the program doesn't exactly sell itself so you have to love the early recruiting success and fan buy in.
UK fans will be good fans for a decent program, but its hard to get excited for a bad football team when you're alternative is the winningest bball program ever.

For the class of 2013 we beat out a few big schools for some in state kids.

Florida wanted Ryan Timmons pretty bad. Jason Hatcher had offered from most major programs and was committed to USC but we flipped him when Stoops started recruiting him. Not sure about Ohio State, but we've taken some kids that Nebraska was recruiting pretty hard. Got Drew Barker over South Carolina.

We've won a few recruiting battles that we would have never won with Joker. We'll get Matt Elam over Alabama as well, IMO.

Meh. I've always cared about the football team more. Basketball just isn't as exciting IMO.

Ryan Timmons and Thaddeus Snodgrass off the top of my head. Drew Barker got offers from several large schools as well.

ETA: As Cat said we've also stole some Nebraska recruits and have one of their former 4-star RBs transferring in for 2014.

He definitely needs to put on some weight, but his height is fine. He'll be playing in the slot. Apparently has great hands and speed. Size is his only read negative.

He's apparently only had four drops in his entire high school career thus far, with over 100 catches.

Yep. Huge get since our DL is made up of three seniors and a junior this season.

This should push us back up to #3 in Rivals team rankings.

Great pickup, did Elam make it in this weekend? I saw where he said he'd be at UK or UT earlier this week

Elam's on our campus all weekend. He tweeted out a picture earlier today of a new uniform.

Not sure how I feel about that helmet. I like the grey jersey alternate though.

ETA: And great pickup. Just need some of those top WRs to pull the trigger.
