UT has about 6-7 deciding on signing date-ESPN lines up these top guys for their all day coverage of signing date. The higher the profile of the university (UT, ALA, USC, LSU, OU) the more these schools are going to have to wait until signing date-I wish ESPN would stop doing this because it keeps a bunch of other recruits without a definite plan. Just picked up 4 star RB Kyle Porter-still have 11 more top national recruits listing Texas as warm or warmer on their target list

Temple had a QB decommit today but may have been recruited over

A humorous and thought provoking take on the Commitment game and whether its time to formalize recruiting offers and commitments to form an enforceable contract

I wouldn't really say he was recruited over. Russo was our top QB target of the class, and Aaron was recruited after Russo committed to Rutgers. We were willing to honor Aaron's scholarship, but he felt it would be best to go elsewhere. I don't think Russo would've necessarily been handed the starting QB job post-Walker.

amazing finish as they had about 10 Top 250 dominoes fall their way in last few days. Jordan Elliott originally a UH commit signed during lunch. Lost only 1 really-but you know I'm still not sure they got the right QB in Shane Buechelle or the 2017 Austin Westlake kid they have commited. Very nice prospects but great? Not so sure. Not awed by their videos

BTW UH fell to about 45-50 depending on service after being in the 20s
