Sounds like academics played an important part, was strongly considering Rice.

Dad was a strength and conditioning coach for Dallas Cowboys in the 90s. I saw a Tech site site said Dad was a 3 Time All SWC selection. I vaguely remember him but not the 3 time All-SWC part, Found another article that says his father is minister in DFW area. Let's hope the kid grows to be as big as Dad because that's a big man

Stallion thanks for all the homework you have done during this recruiting cycle. I'm not connected as I once was a decade or more ago with athletes. But, (back when) heritage was an important consideration in both college and pro recruitment. It was more than just size where linage mattered. It was the knowledge on training and diet and skills, etc. not to mention the shared love for the game. Obviously "dad" was a stud. Lets hope the heritage card plays well here.

I should have added we have a great example of the above heritage concept playing out right now in pro sports with the Archie Manning family. There have been many others.

Is this the missing piece for this class? Hope he's an interior guy, because we don't have that many DTs coming back, although if that's the case, he needs to get bigger. But it sounds like good bloodlines, if nothing else.
Welcome, Chris!

247 & Scout say he's 6'1", Rivals 6'3"? Can always add the weight, height not so much.

I hear a lot of Tech fans were hoping he would be a RR. Could be a solid pick up.
