Re: Xavier Castille
He's taking an official here on 1/24. I think he's got Okie Lite and Washington scheduled prior to coming here but it looks like we will get his last official.
This kid would be a tremendous addition to pair alongside Proche and Wilson.

Back off Warchild seriously.

Re: Xavier Castille
We got some Okie Lites' on the staff now, so you'd hope those guys could sell AGAINST going there really well. Keeping my fingers crossed - would really like to get this kid also.StallionsModelT wrote:He's taking an official here on 1/24.

Re: Xavier Castille
I'd love to see us actually rotate WR's and keep some fresh bodies on the field. I always felt awful for guys like Der'rikk Thompson and Al Robinson who had to run 25 go routes every game and try to get back to the LoS for the next play.

Looks like Hicks has been hoping Castille ends up a Mustang too.

Re: Xavier Castille
I know this thread is about Castille, but a point about Hicks:
Looking over his HS highlights, he looks just like Burcham did to me - except he's shorter and doesn't seem to be the runner that Burcham was in HS . . . looks to have a stronger arm, though, and I'm guessing his competition was a step up from Burcham's.
Glad we got him - hope he can lure in a few more high 3 stars like Castille . . .

Re: Xavier Castille
Many say it is all about other offers, and if so I think Hicks has better offers then Burcham had.

Right. I think Arky was going to offer Burcham until he blew out his knee. And then of course he probably would have went there.gostangs wrote:Many say it is all about other offers, and if so I think Hicks has better offers then Burcham had.
Ultimately, Hicks is probably the better prospect. Will be interesting to see how it all shakes out this Spring and Summer. Can we put Garrett's arm and IQ on Davis's legs??

Re: Xavier Castille
I have a feeling we might be crazy about Davis by this time next year.

Re: Xavier Castille
Agree. Qb's aren't static. Look at Boykin at TCU. His accuracy and decision making was suspect early on now he is in top ten qb's in country.

Amazing what a little coaching and a new scheme will do.gostangs wrote:Agree. Qb's aren't static. Look at Boykin at TCU. His accuracy and decision making was suspect early on now he is in top ten qb's in country.

Re: Xavier Castille
There were a few of us saying the same thing about GG a couple three years back when the rest of the pony faithful were wanting to run him out of town. I think Davis will be solid.SMUstangs22 wrote:I agree... add a touch of accuracy and knowledge and watch outjimhagle wrote:I have a feeling we might be crazy about Davis by this time next year.
Re: Xavier Castille
Davis doesn't have the same leadership qualities as Gilbert thus far
