Predicting Charlie Strong’s most important targets in August, 2016 for a February, 2017 signing day is a perilous business for a head coach that likes to keep his own counsel and let senior seasons play out before making his move. However, after my latest HUDL recruiting dork deep dive, I have a dozen favorite recruits that I’m confident touting as the best combination of need, attainability, talent and fit to our systems.
If Strong can ink 2/3 of these athletes, Texas will have a monster class. 10/12 would put me on my fainting couch. 6/12 would be solid.
