The 6-foot, 200-pound safety chose TU over offers from Boston College, North Texas, Louisiana Tech, Texas State, Arkansas State and others.

Another great pickup by this staff! And with an offer from Boston College, sounds like a good student as well.

Next thing to find out....we need to learn how he got the nickname Buddha!

So, no Rivals rating yet. Where do you think he's going to fall on that? Seems like a really quality player

My guess is borderline of 2/3. He'll either be a high 2-star or a low 3-star most likely.

He gets to where the action is quickly, and is a sure tackler...We can
use that skill set very well...

We have a long history of recruiting well in the piney woods of East
Texas...

I remember those East Texas guys like Reno Hutchins, Ricky Watts, Lovie Smith, Kenny Jackson, Michael Gunter, etc. John Cooper made a living recruiting that area. Those schools produced back then and still do.
