That'd be great. Offers from Kansas and Okla. State. Has visits set up with Arkansas and A&M, too.

[Stallion]

if true this would be a big commitment and one of the 4-5 targets I mentioned a couple of weeks ago. Gotta give Bennett some credit-with Martin and Haynes he may finish strong yet especially if our remaining few players are of the caliber of Martin and Haynes. Haynes had scheduled visits to A&M, Arkansas, Kansas and SMU.

sorry Stallion, but I missed it - who is Martin?

[Stallion]

RB DeMyron Martin from Allen-maybe the hottest player in Texas based on his playoff performance. Search down for previous posts.

Are we recruiting him at DB?

[Stallion]

he projects as a CB-but he put up some serious rushing numbers as a running QB this year-I think he had 1,100 rushing which is unusual for a QB.

[Higher Authority]

If this is confirmed, this is great. All I've read is that coaches kept trying to write him off, saying he's too small (5-10, 170, 4.4 on most lists I've seen), but he just kept making plays. Too good to pass up, it seems.

[pony91]

Sounds like we have found someone who can run back kicks and punts. I like playmakers. Just think, people passed on Darren Sproles for being too small.

[Corso]

A lot of people skipped over Blake Warren, too, but he sure looked good running a punt all the way back against Rice (it was Rice, wasn't it?) I'll gladly take a bunch of these guys who flat-out make plays.

[Ponymon]

I like playmakers also, but we need lineman, ESPECIALLY BIG DEFENSIVE LINEMAN!!!!!!!! I'm tired of the opposing teams 330 lb offensive lineman pounding on our 240 lb converted linebackers. We need BEEF in the middle just as BUS hammers home daily!!!!!!!!!!1

[HorsePower]

I would agree, although if there aren't any good ones available, I'm cool with the collection of playmakers/athletes.

Maybe the focus of next year's "3 or 4" JUCOs will be linemen? Sure hope so, anyway.

[pony91]

Did anybody get confirmation on this?!!
