Those boosters won't give 2 ***** where Jaquan and SBB are from if they sign with Texas and go ball out over there just like nobody in Miami cared when Armstead and Ed Reed were balling out for the U. Winning trumps everything. I don't think it's coincidence that this is happening in October rather than July... My guess is that Strong is going to make a concerted effort to land the TX kids he wants every year, but if they aren't looking promising by this time of year then he'll have no qualms about coming over here, casting a huge net of offers, and taking kids like Redwine... and he's already proved he can build a **** of a defense with kids like that. He can point to the Texas HS coaches/boosters and say "look, I gave your kids first crack, but now I have to fill out this class". Plus, getting some of those kids over there and seeing their facilities will appeal to those oddball kids who feel like they need to go do something different (i.e. kids like Matt Thomas who wanted to go to USC), and pulling one or two of those types a year can make a huge difference if they're the right guys.
