Initial signing period, Wednesday 3 Dec 2025

[D-Wreck]

I know that it’s pointless, and we won’t know for a couple years……. But any initial guesses at ranking this class? Top 10 list?

I think it’s pretty loaded, but have a feeling that Linder will be an absolute stud, and the gem of this class.

Yeah, I think Dahlke, who's enrolling next semester, and Linder will be good early. The out of state guys are a little more difficult just because it's hard to stay posted on a weekly basis.

The QB looks like an incredible athlete. Lots of them look more than capable of becoming good players.

So is Dahlke graduating early? Must have enough high school credits to do that? You don't hear of that happening alot, or at least I haven't. Good athlete, good student, just what you want!

Chance Wilson did it.

Seems to be happening a little more often. Does that mean Coach Herrin gets an extra semester with these guys?

I like seeing the nice tall DBs. If they can compete with our current DB room with speed, they will be spectacular.

@BobcatBuiltTexan What do you know about Steptoe?

Been a crazy year for me so I haven't watched a ton of hs football..... what I'll say is I've never met a steptoe that couldn't ball... let me ask around and see what I can come up with

Bump
Took me quite a while to find this because I couldn’t remember the title, but just the subject.

Moderator is there anyway we can make this sticky as we’ve got a lot of spring football to talk about over the next few months?

As we talk about recruits needed, and that are incoming, it’s nice to have a quick reference, helps me memorize names and positions

[tetoncat]

Hurst seems like he has size to play right away in a rotation
