Stewart will make 3 Stars. All of the rest have good to average quickness for D1 DEs/DLs. Though lightly recruited at this point, they are good athletes who might get a lot more interests after this coming season. Two DEs are 6'4" and 6"5." Most of these guys will have to redshirt next year.

I'm thinking Stewart and Palacio are three star guys. Not sure about the rest.

Nabushosi, Palacio and Stewart - at least - earn three stars.

Some of these guys may not get rated until after their senior season starts. Seems like last year some of our 2011 recruits weren't rated until the end of their season, when some were rated 3 Stars.

I've given up predicting 3 stars anymore because when 3/4ths of all Texas recruits are 3 stars it really don't mean much anymore. There were 271 of them last year. 288 of them the year before.

There are a lot more 3 Stars then there used to be, but as the high school football programs continue to keep getting better and better around the country, their appears to be more quality prospects to choose from also.

we have two 2* currently and had 6 last year, how do you figure?

to be accurate and clarify the confusion-we have 2 two stars plus 5 unrated players. Some could be 3 stars-I wouldn't think any are DEFINITE 3 stars based on generally few offers but its possible especially with a strong senior year. Almost 3/4th of Texas high school signees were 3+ stars last year. None of them have reported offers on Rivals anyone would brag about although NTSU and Louisiana Tech are probably devastated
