I blame the 7on7 type approach that high schools in Texas seem to run…not physical, run and gun…


Let's take a look @ last years Texas HS recruits:

6 of the top 30 DL
5 of the top 30 DE
7 of the top 30 CB
7 of the top 30 S

Does not include TX kids that enrolled @ IMG.


Talent is elite if not the best, the problem is where they land. Let's see how things start to look in the new NIL world.

With NIL, USC and Texas are very well positioned to be powers in the sport.

OU could be in for an extended drop down, but it won't have any relation to Nebraska issues or because SECSECSEC. In the long term OU will still be OU, but in the short term it could be an unsettling down turn.

Where are those numbers in the pros? Why don’t we see tons of defensive players drafted from these Big 12 schools?
You make my point for me…they seem to have HS talent but it doesn’t translate at the next level…games get more physical and these recruits fade to mediocrity…
