Recruiting

[HoustonCajun]

Was looking at the updated RecruitingLlist in The Advertiser today. In summary, we have verbals as follows:

LB - 5
WR - 4
DT - 1
OG - 4
OT - 1
DE - 1
QB - 2 (QB from Katy is one of top 8 in all of Texas per Houston Chronicle)
S - 2
CB - 1
Athlete - 1
Total - 22 commits with 2 weeks to go and additional needs to be met.

thanks. Any word on Tig Barksdale, Daren Kitchen and (don't remember first name) Watson- all defensive backs transferring? I recall hearing rumors of transferring here - some actually practicing with the team around bowl time already.

Never heard of him so I'm not sure who he is. T or JB would have to possibly answer that one unless some of the other guys in the know may have heard about his situation.

Chris wants to come in, unless they lose someone they don't have a scholarship for him right now.
