Recruiting Tidbits on Southlake Players

Post by Stallion »

from the Southlake Journal-I know several were interested in Russo:

Carroll defensive end Kyle Russo is also planning an on-site visit at North Texas on Jan. 19. Russo had been talking with SMU, but said SMU coaches told him they were not going to recruit him. Russo is still talking with Baylor, Wake Forest, Iowa State and Kansas State, but talks with the schools have not accelerated.

Carroll twin brothers Arius and Anthony Ford have also been invited to take an on-campus visit to North Texas on Jan. 19, but Arius said the brothers may consider a visit to Division I-AA non-scholarship Georgetown and Ivy League schools Penn and Brown.

Carroll defensive end Bryce Saldi (6-4, 213) said talks with Texas Tech, SMU and Houston have picked up. Saldi, son of former Cowboy tight end Jay Saldi, said Texas Tech coaches were talking about coming for an in-home visit the week of Jan. 15 and is considering taking an official visit to SMU on Jan. 19.

personally, I wouldve offered Kyle Russo, but I"ll trust Bennett and his staff's judgement on this one

my guess is saldi goes to tech... his borther turned out to be a decent player there, and when we've golfed together he's all about the red raiders

Russo committed to NTSU. Doubt Saldi gets an offer from Tech.

Looking at NTSU commitment list, they might as well call them the Dragons.

i didnt think his older brother would either, he wasn't that great in high school. Trevor ashlock (who was the starting safety at southlake last year) decided he did not want to play college football, and went to arkansas to be a student. ran into him a few weeks back and he told me he is going to UNT this spring, and will be walking on in the fall. He was a little undersized in high school (played at Fort Worth Chirstian until his senior year) but has grown a lot, and has a good chance of being a diamond in the rough. i can see this being a commong theme with dodge at UNT
