All Area recruits for DMN

thatgooner — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 18:25:50 -0000

I must admit I'm not a complete expert in high school football and since I mostly focused on the 10-4A District being since I'm a Heath alumni, I was surprised to read the All Area Defense announcements and to see Tariq Allen on the 2nd team rather than the first. Huge props though to my good friend Austin Moss making the first team. His dad Mickey Moss was at UT I believe but I don't know how hard UT recruited him. He's a Colt McCoy personality wise but enough about him.

Congrats to UT recruit Thomas Ashcroft on making the first team though on offense!!!

glimpses of Garrett Gilbert

glimpses of Garrett Gilbert

I'm pretty excited about GG because I've known about how great this kid is for a long time. The guy who normally shoots Rockwall-Heath's games did the last Lake Travis game. I wanted to share it simply because Gilbert looks a man among boys in the pictures.

Error on the Texas Exes

Not sure if this has been posted before but I figured I'd post it anyways so I could get an answer. I just got another letter from UT (yes I'm super excited about it!) and I'm looking through the school's website and stumbled across the Texas Exes thing and it mentions that Vince Young is a Heisman winner. Has anybody tried contacting the UT website to fix that or no?

New commitments

The above is a link to a commitment from Marquise Goodwin, the kid from Rowlett who tore it up in state with 5 medals. He will also be playing football for the 'Horns from what that says.

Waxahachie's pitcher Cain has also given a verbal.

This is my first post here so sorry if it's in the wrong format or anything. I've been lurking here for months and figured I might as well post something. And also, sorry if this has already been mentioned elsewhere. I didn't see it though.
