'16 D.C. DE/TE Devante Brooks (UT commit 1/15/15)

I think you're exactly right except for Blakely. Pretty sure the guy in the middle is Deangelo Gibbs the 2017 CB but I could be wrong

He's right...that's Blakely in the middle. His jacket has CC on it for Colquitt County, where he goes to school.

That's definitely Blakely in the Colquitt Co jacket. This is probably a playful recruting tactic. "No no (Brown, Warrior, Byrd) you guys stay over there. This is commits only"

“They had every right to say ‘You know what, maybe you’re not the right fit’. At the end of the day, they want people to produce from day one.

“I was fortunate enough to be a part of this program that stays loyal to its players. That meant a lot to me and it showed me they really wanted me there. They stayed by my side.”

I'm pleased they didn't dump Brooks. He feels fortunate they stuck with him. Of course we all know there are others who were not as fortunate, did not feel they meant much, and Butch didn't stay by their side.

And we all know that there were others who WERE as fortunate, because Coach did continue to be supportive, e.g. Saulsberry and Maggit. I was surprised that Butch stayed with Brooks, when there were others in line and there was no room. I think it says a lot about Brooks, and I don't mean just his physical talent.
 
Make no mistake about it, if Brooks can get healthy and stay healthy then he can be a huge weapon for us in the passing game down the road.
 
So we're holding this spot for DBrown if he wants in and DBrooks is a blue/grey shirt?
 
Callahan said he has an afternoon signing ceremony at his school. There are a couple other prospects there too, one of them is committing on ESPN 2 at 2pm.

I think it also says a lot about Butch...
 
Brooks was on for quite a while with Swain this morning. No indication of a gray/blue shirt.
Sounds good and stated his rehab was progressing nicely. Cleared for everything but contact. Running, cutting, jumping, etc.
