Unless Texas just falls apart under Terry they will be fine.

I’m thinking the same. Short term they will keep Terry to keep those two five stars for next season. Kinda of what happened at Tech after Beard left them.

Hopefully one day Houston will be represented on the McD AA by multiple players much like Kentucky and Duke currently are.

Doesn’t matter how highly rated they are as long as they are cougars!

I am calling it: Bronny James will be a Coog!!

:joy:

Bronny is a Top 40 player but no way is he a McDonald’s All American in my book. Lol

Bronny gonna end up at USC I am guessing

Truth.

I don’t even consider him top 50.

Wesley Yates is so much better. Shoo- Kordelius Jefferson probably beats him 1 on 1. No joke! I think Bronny only averages 14 pts as a senior and he’s a tweener without a true position.

Danuel House was a 5 star Top 20 recruit on ESPN and didn’t get an invite…

Honestly, I always thought House was a buster, but he has made a nice career for himself in the league following James Harden wherever he goes. :rofl:

At least he was at the Jordan Brand game when it was on par w/MickieDick’s game.

Really wanted Jared McCain here. I know the team and coach did to. But i guess he had a list of the things he dreamt about and he’s checking them off one by one.

Our coaching staff is the best in the country at player development IMO.
We don’t need McDonald’s.

If we get the Burger King to Taco Bell kids and coach them up we are top 10 in the country every year.

A McDonald’s every now and then is nice if they have the temperament and desire of Jarace.

What is your thought process for these rankings? Why are Chick-fil-A and Shipleys lower than Burger King?

I wasn’t ranking fast food joints….just using names.
