Wasn't trying to, I just have seen so many broken families, some of my best friends included, that have to deal with their crazy ass exes every day because of the kids. They have to stay in places they don't want to be and pay out money they don't have. It sucks.

It’s the whole “need to have meaning” aside. Wife and I tried to plan our family and our little miracle showed up accidentally way early. There was no deeper intent. Our self-worth stayed the same we just added responsibilities. Never thought less of anyone who didn’t feel the urge. Now if I resorted to your technique I add “because you need to be able to care for someone more than yourself.” But that’s an unnecessary aside. 😎

I guess you didn't see the post I replied to or it would have made more sense.

I have a request of my brethren and sistren. Take a look at this highlight reel. I’ve know this kid since he was 8 years old. His brother is Cam McDaniel (RB for Norte Dame when they lost to Bama in the NC. Don’t get me started on the liar that is Brian Kelly). TJ won the Landry award last week (Heisman for the state of TX) over the #1 and #3 players in the country (based on which recruiting site you follow). He played for Southlake Carroll in the toughest football division in Texas, 6A. Yet he’s only a 3⭐️. He had 30+ offers of which 2 were Clemson and Oregon and the only SEC offer was Vandy. I don’t get it. He’s a stud. He’s the exact same measurable as Christian McCaffrey when he LEFT Standford. He will play on Sundays. I have my theory as to why he is rated the way he is but I’ll keep that to myself. Take a look and tell me what you think.

Probably his measurable for a RB are not exactly right or his 40 is not fast enough, but if he is like Christian he is definitely a take. Christian has really elite speed even though he is small compared to most RB's in college and the NFL. I could see him being used as a slot receiver similar to how New England uses Julian Edelman. He looks the part in the video. He looks strong and outruns people. I wonder why ND is not on him since his brother already played there? Does he play defense?

Didn't Pruitt mention him at NT during his presser in which he went through all of the signees? That's where I got that albeit I agree with you. Considering where he is now, DE sounds more reasonable.

Never read that. He’s big but not bulky. Don’t see an anchor when he’s set.

Being in Texas hurts him a bit too I bet. That size and production in a different state where he can standout more he could be a borderline 4 star with more big offers.

I mean I'd love to see him at UT...but if he's got a Clemson offer why isn't he going?

SMU is building their entire class around him. He gets to be the feature back. They run the same offense as his high school which is a version of the RPO. (Vice Versa)

Great*. We basically have for sure 3 instant starters in wanya, crouch, Wright,

And Keyton & Lowe are probably gonna be instantly in the 2 deep at least.

Consensus is that Wright isn’t a finished product and will likely need to sit a year, and Morris is getting hip surgery (labrum injury) as soon as he gets here. Though I think Morris will still start in some capacity.

I think Chris A. is the guy to watch. Dude is really strong and I bet he starts at guard this year. Both Juco DTs are going to start. Jaylen McCullough will probably start at safety. He’s a leader that we desperately need on defense and a great athlete. Roman Harrison is such a freak that I don’t see how he isn’t starting a few games next fall.

Both tight ends, Eric gray, and Keyton will play a ton too.

I watched a couple minutes, and I don't know anything about this kid, and I'm not an expert. But, does his lower rating have to do with his speed? He doesn't look slow by any means, but it doesn't look like he separates at top-end speed. What about his acceleration? It didn't "wow" me. But, let's not act like 30+ offers and a 3* rating is bad. That's actually really good. As a top football program historically, we just expect higher rated prospects. Not to mention, he is probably being taught very well. Southlake is no joke.

He looks like a real solid RB but when I was watching the video, my first thought was, I bet he would make a great LB. Of course, idk what he weighs.

If Morris’s labrum is in his hip area, we’ve made a grave recruiting error.

Notre Dame lost that right when Brian Kelly turned out to be the liar that he is. He promises to run Cam as a feature back and never did. Treated him like a full back even though he was 5’11 190 and ran a 4.4... Csm
Broke the NFL shuttle record AS A JUNIOR in high school. He had a handshake request to join Harbaugh at Standford but that was the off season when he was rumored to be leaving for SF. And he did. Little did Cam know that David Shaw would be the coach that he is.

His 40 has improved to 4.4-4.5.

Well, create him a thread and make the call to UT! They can't reach out to him until the 10th, but you or his camp can reach out to them.

Gives the staff a couple weeks to look at the tape too. If you know camps he did or names of coaches he has camped with give them the information too.

Already on it! Ha! I’ve sent his tape to Brice as well. (Another friend.) Cam his brother played at ND and his other brother played at Washigton with Chris Petersen. Family is amazing.
