On another front, Wesley Hooks-Holmes visit here was cancelled, and it was'nt by him. I read tweets about two other cancelled visits from guys who play D. Looks like we have the players we want on the line. Now we gotta land em.

For those of us who don't tweet, our engines are fired up but we're relyiing on those that tweet to blast off the line and tweet these guys into submission! Burn-Out Box (old drag-racing term)

Every recruit on either line coming in will be told they have a good chance at getting a lot of playing time their first year. (lol) Sad fact of the matter is that 90% of them will be picking pine splinters out of their rear-ends the first two years they're here.. D line could be like DB's last year. The preference was to redshirt all of them but we played two due to lack of depth. Big Josh may need a couple of these freshmen to spell him now and again. With all the guys we have committed, ACU should have a dominant line in a couple of years. #BLACKHAZE

With the talent we have coming in now, the talent coming in in the future with the move to DI paired with what ACU has to offer these young men, and with the coaching staff we have, we should have a dominant TEAM in the very near future. Don't know about yall, but I'm exited!

Are these new names or guys that have been on some of the list? One was Terrance Grimsley from Lawton MacArthur. He has been mentioned on here several times. I would have to go back and check to see who the other one was but it was not a name that I immediately recognized.

We still have some coming in this weekend, right? With coaches out visiting "future Cats", seems like we are counting on signing up still more. Taller, faster DB's would be my thought. One really good back and a wide receiver or two. The cupboard is certainly filling up. The video about 3 weeks ago about the class of 2014 being the centerpiece of future classes is coming true. This is exciting.

Very impressive film. Good nose for the ball. Has a way of not just getting away from blockers but exploding thru them. Good speed.

Well, fellas. I am reminded of the old saying,"it ain't over till its over." Dylan's Twitter profile now reads "From Canyon to ACU" Oh, and he is suddenly following ACU coaches. If this means what it appears to mean, we just pulled a major recruiting coup. A reversal of the FBS school swoops in and takes FCS commits.

You got my hopes up on Dylan a couple of days ago. Everyone on this board liked what they saw on his films and felt he was a big time LB with lots of upside. This would be very big.

Any idea where the coaches are today? It's a long way from San Antonio to Las Cruces so maybe Holloway and Thrash are going there. Need to make sure Mr. Donald Moore gets to Abilene, too. Maybe Collins and Young are visiting in Houston (and Fairfield).

Maybe Collins and Young are visiting in Houston (and Fairfield). San Jose State has offered both Donald and his twin brother Ronald. If Ronald goes to San Jose, you can bet that is where Donald will go. Ronald plans to visit Vanderbilt before deciding. Should have added, I have no idea where the coaches are today. No tweets since yesterday.

Appears as if Gary McKnight, WR from Oklahoma is headed to Northeastern Oklahoma A&M.
So unless there is a mystery WR out there then maybe Donald Monroe is our last target.
