We were after higher rated players.

Texas wanted him the first go-round, too.

Correct.

I think he can fit that Vernon Broughton mold great pick up 🤘🏻

Similar aspects to their game. Broughton had a much leaner/thinner lower body at this point in his development though.

If Carlton can handle the physicality, I like the potential

How in the hell was he even committed to Baylor in the first place

$$$

This was the 2nd "hi" right? Any recruit that went to that game yesterday had to be jacked. Would you rather play in that environment or in the sad ass Big 12 with Baylor?

so who are we realistically still on? 

He has the kind of frame to add 25 pounds of muscle. 

Blue front white back magic 🤘

I saw one of his games and I can’t see him at Edge. DL all the way.

One Carlton for Carlton....

Another flip!!

A fourth flip in the last week goes the way of the Texas Longhorns!

This time, it is Temple EDGE/DL Jamarion Carlton, who had committed to Baylor over the summer.

The Longhorns had hosted Carlton on campus three different times in the last month and sure enough, those efforts were enough to flip the 6-foot-5inch defensive lineman to the Horns.

Carlton was heavily recruited by LaAllen Clark in the spring, got on campus for an official visit and after a brief stint being committed to Baylor, he ends up joining the Texas class.

Big time addition for the Horns on the defensive side of the ball here.

Dude will end up between 290-300... probably a top 3 round type pick. His hands are good already... he just has to get better coming off the ball and not relying on his athletic abilities to bail him out. Is he an early enrollee?

Texas is taking Carlton as a DL 

More long term in the 5tech mold that could even end up being north of 290 pounds

Hes gained around 60 pounds in high school, and his frame has plenty more

good, he is not a DE, not a SDE. he is not fast enough or dynamic enough imo

I trust Clark, Carlton may be Clark’s new Bosa
