If I'm being picky...
Would have to figure out a way to get to 17. Numbers in parentheses are how I would rank the uncommitted prospects in terms of need/importance.QB - Jacob Zeno RB - Qualan Jones RB - King Doerue (4)WR - Jaylen Ellis WR - Langston Anderson (7)TE/WR - Nnamdi Adim-Madumere (6)OL - Landon Peterson (2)OL - Brant Banks (5)OL - Gabe Hall (1)DL - TJ Franklin DL - Harrison White DL - Trace Ford or Matt Jones (3)LB - Will Williams LB - Hakeem Vance S - Tyrone Brown DB - Myles Brooks CB - Brandon White (8)
Quick notes (must read)
- Look for DB Myles Brooks to open up his recruitment soon. A lot of speculation has been floating around lately and I can tell you it's a mutual departure in a sense. Baylor wants him and really, really likes him, but they do not want him to take a spot through the summer if he isn't set with a class that is going to be so small. Essentially the staff is telling him he has to do what's best for himself and allows the staff to possibly take guys who are wanting to commit. Remember, the staff wants him so he has a spot, but they aren't in the business of forcing him to stick around if he doesn't want to. This makes things easier for take a guy like Tyler Owens now that Tyrone Brown is back in the fold.- Permian Odessa OL Landon Peterson and DE Matt Jones will be on campus at the end of this week, likely on Friday. Baylor is in a very, very good spot to land both of those guys and it wouldn't surprise me if it happened by the time they leave their visit. - Baylor has offered Prestonwood S Solomon Turner after his performance at camp today. I'm not expecting anything imminent but I can tell you he was excited about the offer. It's not public yet, but it will be soon. - Genson Hooper is a take after the staff saw him again today at the camp. He is a freak. Not the best receiver of the guys they are recruiting, but he's too good of an athlete to not find a spot for. Could be a WR, could be a TE, could be a LB, could be a DE. You'll see my pictures tomorrow or late tonight. - DE Trace Ford was hoping to get an offer before he camped, but the staff wanted him to make it to Waco. He drove himself down to Waco from Santa Fe, Oklahoma and earned it. Not saying that Baylor is going to land him, but he really wanted the offer and backed it up by making the trip.
