In-state names surging with strong senior seasons
It's been an interesting few weeks for some players around the state of Texas who have seen their stock soar on the recruiting front as extensive game tape and highlight packages have been able to hit the desks and computers of coaching staffs across the country. Obviously, A&M is strapped in terms of numbers and are zero'd in on the same names you guys know and hear so often (Johnson, Foster, Turner, Adeleye, and so on), but there are so many variables surrounding the last few months of any recruiting cycle - much less one that's been impacted like the 2021 class due to the pandemic. Typically, you'd see these sort of increased valuations happen at an equal pace throughout the duration of the recruiting cycle due to coaches having ample opportunities to see these kids in camps, get them on campus to confirm measurements, and put all of their data points to use when watching game tape. They haven't been able to do that this year so this is why so many prospects are popping up with big time offers in the middle of November. Therefore, some names of note that we have hit on here and there that would fit into that aforementioned criteria would be guys like: Mansfield Lake Ridge CB Marvin Covington - 5-11, 180 pound cover man with verified track times. Has picked up offers from Miami, Houston, North Texas, TCU, and Mississippi State in the last 3 weeks alone. Jason has featured him quite a bit already. I think that offer list will continue to grow. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/11597679/5f8f7cca0dc048112471050eFt Bend Christian OL Remington Strickland - 6-4, 295 mauler that could play anywhere along the OL due to his athleticism and technique. Has 30 total offers with the last 4 coming from Michigan, Oklahoma, Virginia Tech, and Texas. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/9624425/5f8207465cb37c072882207dBryan Rudder ATH Keithron Lee - 5-10, 180 do-it-all kid who's absolutely lit up the stat sheet this fall. Electric with the ball in his hands. Good comp of Ainias Smith. In the last 30 or so days, he's gotten offers from TCU, SMU, Washington, Utah, Tennessee, Arizona State, Ole Miss, Texas Tech, and Texas. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/10348732/5f8b108c578d8006a455dd59

Three names on the rise
Last night I posted about Lake Ridge 2021 CB Marvin Covington but he is not the only prospect to emerge on my radar this fall. So here are a few new prospects to my radar I think you guys may want to put on yours.DE Harvey Dyson, Cedar Hill (2022) Cedar Hill has been known to produce a top flight prospect or two over the years and 6-foot-4, 260-pound defender Harvey Dyson is beginning to turn quite a few heads with his play in 2020. It says something when the "freak" tag is being thrown around at Cedar Hill. He is a strongside defensive end candidate with the size and athleticism to potentially play inside and out. He played a little bit as a sophomore, but he is already having a breakout junior season. The recruiting process is currently in the early stages with Rice showing some early interest. I look for that to change as the season continues though. Athleticism runs in the family too. His father played football at SFA and his mother played basketball at North Carolina A&T. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/12733698/5f8f1f0fd45e360ff45eab52 TE Nathan Jones, Brock (2022) Stop me if you've heard this one before, but there is a big tight end making plays in Brock, Texas. At 6-foot-5, 240-pounds, Jones is Brock's third leading receiver and a punishing blocker. Brock is a run heavy offense, but Jones has shown himself to be a reliable receiver with 9 receptions for 182 yards and 3 TDs through 8 games. He is a student of the game and he lists Austin Stogner (Oklahoma), Miller Forristall (Alabama), and Jalen Wydermeyer (Texas A&M) as the college tight ends he likes to study. He has yet to receive an offer but SMU, Florida St, Oklahoma St, ACU, and some Ivy League schools are showing interest. He also has some strong bloodlines. His father spent his college days at Texas and Abilene Christian before catching on as a free agent with the Denver Broncos. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/11562697/5f827404b53e880350e96f17 OT Isaiah Robinson, Arlington Lamar (2023) It does not take a long look at the tape to see a big framed, athletic offensive lineman. At 6-foot-6, 285-pound, the right tackle is long limbed and flexible. He is light on his feet and he is explosive. Even with all of that he prides himself on being a technician at the position and playing with sound technique. Offensive line play also runs in the family, 5-star Alabama commit JC Latham is his cousin. As a sophomore, the recruiting process is in the early stages, but Texas recently became the first to extend an offer. Baylor has also expressed an interest. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/13261652/5f8688a632dd9a09988d2ff1

TexAgs National Average Rating

The TexAgs National Average Rating is a proprietary formula that calculates an industry-wide aggregate rating for each recruiting prospect. The formula includes publicly listed grades, scores, ratings and rankings by national recruiting services, along with a TexAgs rating. Combining the data provides a rating for each prospect, which is then normalized to fit the TexAgs Rating 100-point scale.

The intent of this rating is to provide TexAgs readers with a comprehensive snapshot of how individual prospects rank nationally.

TexAgs Rating

The TexAgs Recruiting team of Billy Liucci, David Sandhop, Jason Howell, Ryan Brauninger and a host of recruiting interns attends more than 75 games each fall and observes and evaluates every major Texas A&M target, as well as most of the top 150 prospects in the State of Texas. From this evaluation the team draws a rating for each prospect on a scale between 70 and 100.

90-98: Elite state prospect (Four-star)

Considered one of the best 30-40 prospects in the state and a top 250 national prospect. Displays the physical skills to be a major early contributor at the collegiate level with high professional potential.

80-89: Quality prospect (Three-star)

Considered one of the best 100 prospects in the state and a top 500 national prospect. Displays the physical skills to develop into a contributor over the course of his college career. Has the ability to become a professional prospect over time with development.

70-79: Solid prospect (Two-star)

Considered one of the top 250 prospects in the state. Has the physical skills to be a potential contributor at a D-1 program over the course of his collegiate career with significant development. Professional potential is low.

Staff Predictions

The predictions represent which school each staff member believes will ultimately sign the recruit, and the confidence meter represents his level of certainty in that outcome.

Example #1

If the predicted school is Texas A&M and confidence is set to “High”, then the staff member is saying “I believe that this recruit will ultimately sign with Texas A&M and I feel very certain about that.”

Example #2

If the predicted school is “Alabama” and confidence is set to “Low,” then the staff member is saying “I believe that this recruit will ultimately sign with Alabama, but I’m not very certain about that.”
