Recruiting Mavens - Will the Texas Bowl help us with anyone this year?

[Crusty]

Just thinking that with a freshman and a sophomore being the stars it might help us with kids eyeing early playing time. Or, maybe some Florida kids that know Estime.

Winning Bowl games always help. To what degree it probably depends on each recruit's individual situation.
No one is simply going to commit based on the win in one bowl game. Its one point in a larger picture.

Probably not, but it's a nice addition to the recruiting pitch, and another shiney trophy in our case

A recruit did want to call and commit right after the bowl game, a good one, his coach told him hold off. Not saying the bowl game was the reason, but, it was the tipping point for him.

No can do sir. But, even though we shall not name TOS, Mike does a bang up job, especially around this time of year.

Ishmael. He's thought about committing numerous times but his coach keeps telling him to hold off until the OV.

Based on what I've seen in recruiting the "friendship card doesn't seem to have the pull factor as the program itself in question. The short answer is No!

Since Enoicy played high school football with Estime and they are friends and he is a big target on our board right now i would say your short answer is wrong. Just sharin.

That is what I was thinking but I don't spend time on recruiting until January and know very little other than the final results.

Just say “OV“
Add an “L”
Add an “E”
And you’ve got LOVE
