Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Something I read somewhere
Scout's #1 RB Somodomodingdong Jambayo is a heavy Texas lean now and may commit soon to Strong. This would close the door on Chris Warren to Texas.
Also, apparently Skinny Eason likes Peterman and UW but his handlers/posse/entourage don't like Lollipop Guild (Smith)
To be fair though, the person I heard this from is inaccurate 81% of the time

Why do you think Texas hates abundance? If they can land Jambayo and Warren, they'll take both.
IN
THE
BAG
Still, you could move one of the other RBs to a slot position or S if they really wanted Jambayo and Warren.
I think what is going to happen is the following:
1. As a result of Jambo Jambo (not racist!!! it's "hi" in swahili) visiting UT this weekend, the fan fervor for Warren will be totally drowned out by the fan fervor for Jambo Jambo.
2. Warren will feel like a second class citizen to Jambo Jambo at UT.
3. On the heels of that bitter taste (and don't kid yourself kid, it will be a bitter taste because these kids don't like other people getting attention), Warren will take his visit to UW next weekend.
4. On that weekend, Pete will do what he has done with everyone and their parents: blow them the fuck away. Pete will have been consistent throughout the recruiting process and come across as honest. His development record speaks for itself and Warren sees immediate playing time.
5. Warren's parents will love it and Warren will leave SEA with a few days to make a decision, stick it to all the UT people that have cast him off as second fiddle and go to a place where he feels wanted and valued.
Now, I think THIS ENTIRE SCENARIO is only about... say... 81% likely to happen. But I do think it's very possible and before the Jambo Jambo visit, I din't think it was going to happen.
The real GAUL DERN truth is that CCCP should have a La Marzocco follow him around because that dude closes the deal. He's closed every last recruit he had a legit shot to close. Warren is a stiff test, but there's a reason why we're #2 and Okie State and "Raider Rash" Tech got bumped.
I feel positive and I didn't before. We'll see.
1) How many recruits has Petersen been after hard during this recruiting cycle and not landed?
2) How many recruits have taken their last recruiting visit to Petersen and NOT given a verbal?
Some of you should pay more attention around here ...
Soso Jamabo doesn't really look like a RB (more WR), and Warren looks like a LB at 240#. Both I think are kind of overrated. I've heard Huffman say this isn't a very good RB class nationally.
I'm not sure why any offensive player would chose to go to UT right now. They were way worse than UW last year offensively.
Anybody that is born/bred Texas (talking about Texas being in your blood for generations) dreams of playing for Texas ...
Texas will be fine in a few years ... they just need people to buy Charlie Strong.
I don't get the sense that Warren is born/bred Texas ... it's one of the main reasons why I don't think he's going to end up there.
