Appreciate Andy having me on today!
Such a great exercise playing out these schedules through a variety of lenses.
Plus, I’m feeling Cocky when it comes to a certain starting QB… 👀🤓
The CEILING and the FLOOR for every SEC team in the 2024 season |
@CodyBellaire
helps explain how big you should dream (or how worried you should be). Can Missouri, LSU or Tennessee crash the CFP? Which SEC QB will shock everyone?
Thankful for
@LSUFootballGM
and everyone at LSU for the opportunity to work at my alma mater. But with that being said, I am BEYOND PUMPED to be with
@JoeyMcGuireTTU
at THE Texas Tech University and can not wait to build something truly special here in Lubbock!

Garret is a going to be an absolute stud with Rhule at Nebraska. He’s one of the smartest cats I’ve ever met and an incredible human. Huskers fans should be amped he’s in their building.
This is a COLOSSAL pull for Coach McGuire and the Red Raiders. Prototypical tackle size, terrific athleticism and just an absolute ass kicker. Coach Hamby is going to love this addition to his room. Texas Tech just landed an On3 Top 100 National prospect.
Unbelievable first regular season for Joey McGuire and Texas Tech. Two wins against Top 25 opponents and beat Texas and Oklahoma in the same season for the first time in school history.
No matter what happens in the bowl game, this has been incredible to watch!

According to our On3 Rankings: In the state of Texas, 9 of the top 25 players in the state are committed to schools.
NONE are committed to Texas or Texas A&M.
Expand that list to the top 50? 23 are committed. 3 are committed to Texas or Texas A&M.
Forever thankful to
@JoeyMcGuireTTU

@jkbtjc_53
and Texas Tech University for the opportunity to work at my sister’s alma mater! I have met so many amazing people in Lubbock and the people in that building will always hold a special place in my heart.

I have no information on this, just simply pairing it for fun.
But my goodness how disgusting would Kansas State’s offense look with Avery Johnson and Dylan Edwards lined up back there together.
Okoye is one of the freakier, developmental EDGE prospects in the country. Definitely on the All-American Off-The-Bus team. He has tremendous overall athletic ability and has his best football ahead of him.
We at
@On3Recruits
felt awfully good about PJ Adebawore throughout the recruiting process.
- No. 52 player in the country in October 2021 update
- No. 20 player in the country in April 2022 update
- Finished the cycle as an Industry 5-star
I’m very high on this Auburn team going into 2024.
Payton Thorne year 2 with an absolute arsenal of weapons in the wide receiver room. Running back room is dynamic. Defense can force A LOT of turnovers.
Are we looking at a 10-win Auburn team in 2024?

Just an FYI for the general public. This is NOT normal. Coach McGuire trusts his personnel department to do their job more than any head coach I have ever been around. There’s a reason they are CRUSHING in recruiting and the rest of college football SHOULD BE taking notice.
Coach Joey McGuire talked to us about Texas Tech's unique approach in evaluating talent and how they're able to be one of the first offers for a lot of recruits
"It keeps us ahead"
Full conversation 11 AM ET 📺:
Macho is one of the most electric athletes not only in Louisiana, but the entire country. Senior tape is going to open a lot of eyes on the recruiting trail. Huge get for Joey McGuire and the Red Raiders.
Love to see the Arch Manning love during the Texas spring game today. But just wanted to bring some attention to the one going on in West Texas because it appears that Will Hammond is absolutely SPRAYING.
5-star recruit Jordan Hall on why he picked Georgia over Florida😳
“UF talked a lot about nothing UGA talked a lot about something. UGA gone put people in the league. UF ain’t put a DL in the league since Taven Bryan & he’s terrible”
(via
@RealTalk_GA

Forced to start 3 different quarterbacks during the year in back to back seasons as well. Impressive first two years for Joey McGuire and company in Lubbock.

MORE:
Phenomenal get for Texas Tech after losing Calvin Simpson-Hunt to Ohio State. Excellent cover corner who can mirror and stay in phase consistently. Has the long speed as well to run with anyone in the country.
It is INEVITABLE that CFB personnel departments will mirror the NFL operation and split into two separate entities.
Portal Scouting = NFL Pro Scouts
HS Scouting = NFL College Scouts
If you don’t have the resources to build these two departments then YOU WILL get left behind.
Personnel departments have long been asked to carry the load when it comes to film evaluation for the HS level. The transfer portal and advanced scouting has forced these departments to dive further into collegiate evaluation.
Wardell Mack is the definition of versatile. Can genuinely play any position in the secondary. Let him mirror the best receiver on the field at corner or roam over the top at free safety. Corey Raymond doing Corey Raymond things. Big time get for the Gators.
🚨BREAKING🚨 Elite 2024 CB Wardell Mack has committed to Florida, per
@Hayesfawcett3
🐊
He ranks as the No. 19 overall prospect in the On300 rankings‼️
Read:
Two MASSIVE pickups for Baylor in Jaren Woods and Bryson Washington. Super high upside prospects that both have a chance to be NFL prospects. Waco should be excited about these two.
Monster get for the Bayou Bengals. Top 10 safety in the country is heading to Baton Rouge. Playmaker on offense, defense and special teams. Fantastic cover safety who can make plays on the ball and in the box. Big get for DBU and Coach Kelly.
And with that, I am SO PUMPED to announce that I will be heading back home to Houston and joining

enough for this opportunity and I can’t wait to get started!
THE BOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYS
These four know how much love I have for them. They are elite at what they do and most importantly, they are such awesome people!
Nyckoles Harbor with an excellent display of ball tracking, attacking the football with his hands and accelerating through contact at the top of the route. Great ball from JJ Kohl as well.
Some of these coaches already letting recruits know that they don’t have time for them tonight. You know… the first night these kids can ACTUALLY receive contact from coaches directly. If they don’t have time for you on a special occasion like this, WHEN WILL THEY HAVE TIME…?
Texas commit Lance Jackson is one of the rare athletes that can wreak havoc on opposing offenses off the edge AND threaten opposing defenses as a pass catcher. The 6’5, 240 pound athlete always makes his presence felt when he steps between the white lines.
As Day 1 of
#NSD2023
winds down I reflect on what this year’s cycle has meant to me.
I was able to join a coach I care for very much and be a part of a staff that is doing truly amazing things in the Big 12 and the city of Lubbock.
Texas signee Trey Owens was surgical during the downpour at Team West’s afternoon practice. Here he is threading the needle to NC State signee Terrell Anderson.
@AABonNBC
My whole career started because someone asked a group of students, “does anyone have any questions?”
And I raised my hand and said, “yeah, how do I get a job here?”
@LSUBossLady
said, “you just got one.”
Then
@KS_Esq
made me run the gauntlet and the rest is history!
My whole career started because I once witnessed an off camera...uh...let's call it a debate between Deion Sanders and Michael Irvin about how DBs were playing against Dez on goal line fades, and I thought to myself "why is this not on TV"

@WillRedmond_LSU
! Auburn is lucky to have you and I am so pumped for you and Jess. The Tigers are getting one of the most organized and best humans in the business!
I can confirm earlier reports by
@FootballScoop
and
@mzenitz
that Auburn is hiring away LSU's Director of Player Personnel Will Redmond for a General Manager-type role
this is a big-time hire by Hugh Freeze, more details on the hire inside
STORY:
Lastly, a terrific back shoulder ball that was caught by the best offensive performer from Saturday’s practice, Mikey Matthews. Awesome body control and adjustment by Matthews to secure the catch.
Tulane is building on an already absurdly talented coaching staff in New Orleans. They are going to continue to create problems for a lot of opponents on the field and on the recruiting trail.
LSU senior offensive analyst Carter Sheridan is expected to be hired as running backs coach at Tulane, sources tell
@on3sports
.
Sheridan worked at Tulane prior to joining the LSU staff in 2020. Before that, he spent 12 years with the New Orleans Saints.
May or may not be starting a new adventure tomorrow night… looking forward to sharing it with all of you in less than 24 hours! In the mean time, I’ll leave this here…
I really like this addition for Vandy. Nate Johnson is DYNAMIC and will be able to create yards for himself. He’s an explosive threat on every snap and can push the ball vertically. Excellent get for the Commodores.
