New Juco offensive guard from texas. He has already signed a letter of intent too. That makes 16.

Alex Alvarez, 6-foot-3, 290 lbs out of Kilgore college.

He might look the part, but I wish we had some shuttle times, 40 times, etc.

We also got a hard hitting safety out of the gulf of mexico according to CR. I dont know who is it is because I dont have a premium account.

I saw that too. I think its one of these two.

I think its Gibson because he lives on the ocean and he hits pretty hard after watching his video. Either way that makes 17 commits.

I'm thinking that it's O'Neal as Citonelle is just outside of Mobile & he had some big hits on his video.

I hope that the info on Alverez is correct. The Kilgore site lists him as a Freshman so he must have been a full qualifier out of HS. If the info is correct, he will also be here for spring ball with 3 years to play.

The new staff is doing an amazing job in the short time that they have had available.

I just watched vid's of the new safety commit, and I must say, I'm impressed. He hits hard, runs a 4.5 40 and was utilized all over the field for his HS team. Looks like a good pick-up. Now if we could just get Bell to commit...

[hiwhatis]

O'neal looks better of the two and that could be a good pickup.

[CyForPresident]

Well, whoever it turns out to be I hope he can be a Bob Sanders type of player. Small and mean.

Yea Alvarez is enrolled, he is listed in the directory as a freshman from League City, Texas. So that means 4 Juco Linemen at spring practice, that is awesome, to compete with Stephens and Schmeling and the other guys, that will be key!

[CyForPresident]

So how many years of elgibility will Alvarez have?

[sdsmith4]

I would bet he has three years to play three unless he didn't redshirt, in that case he would prolly have four years to play three

The new safety recruit is Cameron O'Neal according to college sports.

SWEET! This guy has good size, speed and likes to hit. Is there anything better? 2 commits today and 17 Commits with a week to go before signing day. I have a feeling we will get about five more guys and I wouldn't be suprised if one or two was a four star.

[sdsmith4]

Good get. He looked really good in his video, he gets around the field well and can hit really really hard! Good get, I am optimistic about what we can get with a week left, 5 or 6 more, I really don't care about the stars, stars mean nothing, I would like Bell, Weir, another Freshman Linemen, a young WR, a young LB, a young K, a young DB
