He has already blown up, check his offer list. A couple of other DBs I like that are underrated at the moment are Jerrin Thompson and Brian Branch.

I like how your confident but how do you know toles will come?

And Alford is going to go down to the end with the home town pull.
Hopefully we get him

I’m more confident on Alford. Marcel is friends with him and he thinks we get him. Toles has been linked to LSU for awhile now. Bill Busch is going to be big in his recruitment.

If Alford, Toles and McGlothern commit are we done with the DB Recruiting.

I mean if they got all those guys they would maybe still push for another. Bud Clark, Lorando Johnson, Joel Williams will still be out there. If we managed to get all of them though that’d be an elite DB class. Mclothern will probably stay in state. I think we will still get Toles, Alford, Williams, and Clark or Johnson.

No. Doubt we turn away Williams.(committing soon I believe) Maybe not Clark either. I can see 3 S and 2 CBs in the class. Depends how many they want elsewhere particularly DL, LB and OL.

Yeah mcglothern def feels like he is staying in Texas.
He is one of those state pride kids.
Last year thought lsu had a chance with him but not now.
So y'all think they take 4 and 2 this year?

I think we take 5 DB’s. It may be 3 safeties and 2 CB’s, or 3 CB’s and 2 safeties. Toles and Alford are safeties, Ricks and Williams are CB’s. If we took Johnson he would be a CB, if we took Bud Clark he could play either CB or safety. Personally right now I think Bud Clark is in over Lorando Johnson.

I think we take 4 DB’s and load up on DL and OLB’s. We took 5 DB’s last class so there’s really not a huge need like we have up front. Especially with the two recent transfers.

Nah, they are going to take at least 2 safeties, probably 3 and a nickel guy. Wouldn't be surprised if Ricks is the only CB in the class. I think they somewhat messed up the last 2 DB classes. They didn't sign any CBs in 2018 and signed too many in 2019. Not only is there a possibility Hampton goes MLB but I also heard he wants to start off at CB. Only 1 safety in the last 2 classes combined.

Agree with all of that. Messing up the Goodrich commitment was a direct cause of having to take so many in 19. Not complaining considering I like all of them just agree the numbers per class got screwed up by the Goodrich thing.

I'd be perfectly fine taking only Ricks at CB. Definitely feel like 3 S in this class. And also agree Williams is a S in college. Think Clark may be the nickel.
