He'd be a nice get. Big receiver, 4-star talent out of high school. Problem: He's already used his redshirt year. Is he willing to sit out another? Usually, these guys transfer for more playing time, not more sitting time. Texas had quite a logjam of young WRs - kind of like OU did when Tyler Stradford came our way.

My guess is, also, that these things have to do with relationships. Our current staff has years of ties with Texas high school coaches from recruiting for Big 12 schools (McCarney, Bowen, Riddle, Grant, Nelson). You wonder if his coach would put him in touch with us.

I think if we even have a semi-successful season (5 or 6 wins), coaches will begin to trust sending their kids here. The vibe here is beginning to be really good. And, with McCarney and crew really offering talent that is "beyond us," they are setting the stage to get some of these type of transfers later on down the line.

That's a thought I hadn't heard anyone mention yet--thanks for bringing it up.
