I'd be more concerned with where he lands in the MLB draft...
he will be excited and post the jersey they have at the next school he visits...
let them enjoy the process...
The jersey doesn't mean anything. Kids usually get to put on a jersey every time they visit. Wouldn't read into it too much.
made the trip down with Lodge.
Maybe they went for the cookie cake and the HEB chips?
Not concerned at all. I think he's trolling longhorn faithful.
Ketchum's drastic change of heart is awesome though. Few months ago he was ragging on murray and murray tweeted at him to keep his name out his mouth.... But now that murray is Austin, the town is 'buzzing' LOL
AS a huge Longhorn fan , I still see Kyler signing with A&M along with a hoard of other top recruits giving A&M a top 4 recruiting class for 2015. I do think this visit is more about his Dad Kevin Murray and the relationship he has with Watson. Rumors that Kyler's Dad is not exactly thrilled about the Coaching staff at A&M might be true. For Texas they need to be very careful here as they may lose their prize QB recruit Gentry who Harbaugh is going to visit this week.
I think Shawn Watson is the exact reason why Kyler and Lodge would not pick Texas. Coach Watson's offense is very vanilla compared to others in the state.Quote:

I think this visit was out of common courtesy to Coach Strong from Kevin Murray. Coach Strong has pandered to them, as has everyone, from the get go and this was the Murray's agreeing to see just what they have to offer.
So Harbaugh visted Gentry yesterday and convinced him to take a trip to Michigan. All the while, Texas was rolling out the red carpet to another QB in Kyler Murray.
In the meantime, Gentry has been scrubbing UT stuff from his twitter feed and horn insiders are expecting him to flip to Michigan after this weekend.
Sure is going to be interesting on the 40 acres if Kyler reaffirms his commitment and Gentry signs with the blue and maize.
Since gentry was supposed to be the only qb commit for this class....
Going to be even more interesting when Murray signs his Pro baseball contract, that will leave atm with one scholarship QB unless you count the walk on they put on scholarship. Lol
Lol.Quote:
Funny that you of all people would be making fun of a walk on QB.
Hmmm, now Murray shows up at Dallas News banquet last night with orange tie on.
There is genuine interest on Murray's part (or at least his dad's).
This is about more than football. He'll sign with the highest bidder.
And I agree with hookandladder, the biggest impact of losing Murray would be A&M's backup situation for the coming season. They should have no problem finding another guy to take over for Kyle Allen in 2-3 years.
I have to wonder if having Kyle Allen already at A&M is what is possibly clouding Murray's decision.
This isn't trolling. Keep your eyes on this one. If kids are making trips they are thinking.
Plenty of kids troll these days. About a month ago 5* athlete Donte Jackson was on UGA's campus and he posted a pic of him actually wearing an UGA jersey, not just the jersey. Well, he committed to LSU the other day.
I'm not saying there aren't a lot of kids who take their visits because they are legit interested, but there's also a LOT who do it just because it's a free trip and this time in their life is a once in a lifetime experience.
I don't follow A&M recruiting so I don't know how hard his commit is, I'm speaking in general, not just Kyler Murray. I follow LSU's recruiting pretty die-hard and there are a ton of kids who are hard LSU commits going on trips with other LSU commits just to go. LSU also usually hosts about 10 kids who are hard commits to Bama every year when they play each other in Baton Rouge.
The more I'm reading about this kid, I don't think he plays college football for anyone. I think he's going to get $4 or $5 million to play pro baseball.
I've heard fringe first round.
On another note, gentry officially flips to Michigan.....
telling you keep your eyes on this one.
The New Mexico QB....made a comment about not feeling comfortable with possible offensive changes in Austin. I heard he at actually decommitted almost a week before it came out in the public.......................so Locksley and Murray came into play.
The recruiting process is getting crazier every year, Strong and Gentry have been talking for weeks now and yes Texas offense will be changing in the spring unless something crazy happens again. With Texas hire at WR coach most put two and two together, this next week leading up to signing day will be even more crazy. Hookem.
The recruiting process with out a doubt has gotten crazy almost borderline ridiculous. Social media and pay sites have changed it. I talk to a few guys every now and than that follow the Aggies and Horns who get too caught up in this process and they get way too worked up.
Some wild rumors were thrown around this weekend and most originated from the Texas side.
One of them was that Coach Strong guaranteed Kyler would start for Texas next year - which breaks the "honesty" core value.
Lots of other "shady" business going on as well. We will see how it all pans out....
