My Longhorn buddy shared this with me from one of their boards


Two thoughts ...

First, that was a well-thought-out and mature statement from Traore. Respect to him for how he handled the process from the jump.

Second, I'm guessing the talk of being torn when he and I spoke on Tuesday was a lot of lip service and his mind was all but made up. Either that or Orgeron made one hell of an impression during today's visit.

Would be nice to find three more of these. That would be one badassed offensive line. Teams would dread playing us for a couple of years.

He was just being polite to Texas writers. He had his mind made up a long time ago.

Awesome get. Not that anyone cares, but I went to the high school he attended in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Let me tell you, a kid going from that school — a small Catholic that, I believe, has a co-op program with another small Catholic school — is wild. Wonder if he'll become the first kid from Boston to start for the Tigers.

Offensive line, especially tackle, is a big need for this class.

And Traore is the top target to address this need.

This is tremendous news.

Appears to be the case. Also appears he was heavy lean before game visit, and that sealed the deal (judging by the article tke857 posted).
