Middle of the road recruiting class??! This was/is our highest rated class ever!!
Jackson is a project QB with as high of a ceiling as you can imagine. He’s not there yet, but he could be OUTSTANDING. He was injured last year, so he’s not exactly “used goods” so-to-speak. He very well could have won the Texas job at some point, but word is that he had an issue with the coaches….and he wouldn’t be the first. I live in Austin, so I get to hear all about Tom Herman.
Honestly, Brewer could be Bentley 2.0. I think he’s better than that based on what I’ve seen, but it’s hard to say. I was never sold on Bentley, but I’m more excited about Brewer. Regardless, Brewer is exactly what we needed for that 2nd QB. We needed an experienced QB that can be a safety net of sorts if Rising isn’t able to go.
My hope is still that Rising will be the man next year….and Brewer just gives us mop up duty tbh.

We don’t really have room. They could probably get creative for the right person, but even that is pretty tight.
There is no way we take another QB. We only have 1-2 more spots.
Word is that Garbers is looking at UCLA.
We weren’t in his top 12 either. We only have 1-2 spots left, and those may be being held for transfers unless the right highschool player shows interest. I imagine at least one of those spots is for a WR, and the other could be another WR, RB, or OL….or just some awesome player that we make room for. Some of that may even depend on if any more players decide to transfer.
Either way, we’ve been out of the Ceyair game for awhile now…
That receiver isn’t too bad either…. š
From everything I’ve gathered, I’d be surprised if Costelli or Jackson start next fall. It seems that both need more time to develop. Honestly, it’s probably not a great sign if one of them do start. First, it means that Rising isn’t back….which I’m really hoping isn’t the case. Second, it means Brewer isn’t much of a security blanket.
I’m hoping for Rising, and expecting Brewer if Rising isn’t ready to go.
The future may be Costelli or Jackson, but I gather that they need more time to learn despite their physical attributes.
