The Gray Area: An early look at what could be Baylor's finish to the 2021 class
Welcome back to The Gray Area and this week’s inside look at Baylor recruiting. Following a big week of recruiting last week, the Bears added to their momentum with another pledge from a quarterback in the 2021 class.
A Few Names to Watch on the Recruiting Trail
I was planning on writing about McKinney North wide receiver JJ Henry potentially getting an offer today but he ended up getting one yesterday. He has been talking to wide receiver Coach Munoz and running back Coach Johnson quite a bit primarily about his fit with the team and his playmaking ability. SMU has built the best relationship with him so far but getting his first Power five offer is huge for him. He wants to let things play out with the virus then see what his options are after so he can take visits and make decisions on his future.Two 2021 offensive lineman who Baylor is in contact with and talking to are Garner Langlo and Caleb Johnson out of Trinity Catholic in Ocala, Florida. The two prospects have been talking to Coach Wickline quite a bit recently and the staff wants both of these guys as a package deal. Johnson for sure at tackle and Langlo is one the staff wants to see him move at tackle if possible. I could see both getting an offer soon especially Johnson.2022 offensive lineman Will Campbell (Monroe, LA/Neville) is another name to keep an eye on as a potential Baylor offer soon. He visited Baylor during Junior Day and it was a bit of surprise that he walked away without an offer. He has picked up offers from Arizona State, Penn State, and Oklahoma over the last four days. The four-star prospect is ranked number 47 in the country for the 2022 class by 247.2021 Newport (AR) athlete Tharon Davis has been talking to Coach McGuire and is now being followed by Vincent Guinta. Mcguire talked to him about how much some of the staff loved his film and that Coach Fedora and Coach Munoz will be watching his film shortly. If they like what they see then he will get an offer. He has so much versatility as he rushed for 791 yards and 19 touchdowns, caught 30 passes for 646 yards and eight touchdowns, and he intercepted five passes.A guy who the staff is not in contact with but who I think is going to get a ton more interest soon is Dickinson's Patrick Williams. The 2022 OL/DL prospect is just 6'4, 230 pounds but has a frame that will continue to grow and put weight on. He plays basketball too which has kept his weight down some as well. LSU and Houston were his first offers a couple months ago and then A&M offered this past week.
