Christmas Day Notes
While we wait for Baylor's first commitment to Matt Rhule there are other things happening behind the scenes. I've heard Sonny Cumbie will not be the OC. The source is solid, but now saying that, watch it happen, but I trust the source on this one.I've heard there could be a Co-OC with one on the field and one in the box, which isn't unusual. The one in the box appears to be one with NFL lineage or from the NFL.Once the commit happens in the next couple of days expect the number to grow to 10 soon after.The staff doesn't have territories defined yet and are working as a team on all prospects.There appears to be two out of state prospects, Brandon Thompson and Justin Harris, close to committing and Harris moved his visit to last after feeling LSU wasn't truly interested. Thompson wants to play both ways and Baylor is offering him the opportunity to do both at TE/DE.Zach Smith, Pooh Strickland, and Terence Williams are close to 100% from their recent injuries. Matt Rhule is flying to Arizona and from what we have heard is planning on meeting with the parents of current players to talk about his plans for the future before the Cactus Bowl.Flower Mound kicker Josh Grant continues talking with Shawn Bell about the possibility of getting a scholarship or PWO position.Merry Christmas everyone!
