does anyone have any intel on Austin. His twitter page says CJB offered him tonight
 
Rondale just deleted all his Texas pictures from his Instagram about an hour ago
It’s obvious that CJ B is not letting up on his recruiting for the best wide receiver he can get with one more recruit. From what you’re saying it sounds like Rondale is feeling ‘real life’...Coaches can show you all the love, make you feel special. And at the end of the day if you don’t make the decision to commit and someone else does you could be left out and end up going to school at Idaho State. You would make their alumni base very happy but you would be miserable. Maybe he sees the writing on the wall

Maybe this is the guy if Rondale doesn’t step-up and commit- he has some terrific athleticism based on the video on his Twitter page from basketball

They’re not comparable. Rondale is a slot guy this guy is an outside guy.

Alexander will play either on the outside as a WR or add weight and become a TE. I believe we told him we were looking at him as a WR, the other schools are looking at him as more of a TE prospect.
 
I have seen the reports that he wants to take more trips but I almost feel as though the UCLA trip is just to get out to California. Watching his tape, he doesn't look to be a Chip Kelly type of WR UNLESS Kelly has decided to alter his offense with his time in the NFL.

Alexander has very good skills in tracking the football and high pointing the ball to make a catch. His time as a basketball player appears to have prepared him well for that role as a WR. You can see immense growth in effort, route running, and skill when looking at his senior year highlights film to his prep year, although effort still appears to be an issue at times when it is a run play or a pass away from him. Not sure how high his ceiling would be but appears to be a more athletic type of Mahoungo type of WR that could stretch the field vertically more and more. When potentially paired with Taylor on the outside, the duo could cause defenses to play very deep and thus leaving the middle of the field open to TE's, RB's out the backfield, and opening up the under neath routes for players like Anthrop. With a rating of 5.6, he would be the third highest recruit for the class of 2017/2018 with two other WR's above him...which likely shows the immense need for WR skill and depth for next season after losing Mahoungo and Phillips but also lacking in any playmakers other than Anthrop and the TE's remaining. There is massive playing time to be found for potentially 4 years for multiple freshman.

He's from Sacramento. So he's not trying to take an official there just to get to California when he's from there. He's at St. Thomas More in CT cause it's a post graduate academy.

There was talk going around about this WR, the ship has sailed on Alexander, Brohm is waiting on a WR with the last name of Moore, that could be a potential signee.
January 6, at the US Army All-Star FB Game, Mr. Moore is to declare during that time
