There's not a huge market for 5'9" box safeties. If he gets invited to a camp he might be able to hang around as a practice squad guy or if he really busts his hump he can be a special teamer with very limited time in a nickel or joker role.

Coogs brought it hard to Atlanta both on and off the field: Exclusive: Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl has economic impact of $41.8 million in 2015, sets record
This shows that Coogs are healthier because they eat less and get more rest. They are also greener since they spend less on transportation.
The Red River Rivalry is at 11 every year, too. The working theory is that it's done to discourage insane amounts of drinking before the game and subsequent fighting. Take it from a UT alumnus: if the game were any later, the assault charges would go through the roof. OU fans are special that way.
Bummer. People will still show up and have a good time though. Bacon and eggs at a tailgate is highly underrated. BONUS: The game is going to be on ABC. THAT is huge.
that's tradition tho. This is problem the biggest matchup UH has faced in Houston in a long time. This should have been a nigh game no doubt about it. be real, who is watching the game on tv at 11 am. im going to the game regardless, but I much preferred a night game with thius much hype.
It's opening weekend. We're not getting a prime slot when facing these matchups. LSU v Wisc ABC Georgia v North Carolina ESPN USC v Alabama ABC Clemson v Auburn ESPN We should feel great about beating out Hawaii @ Michigan for the ABC spot.
potential top 15 matchup with Houston coming off the best season in school history isn't enough to have a night game over Clemson/auburn? LOL I hate 11 am cfb games.
I hate to say it, but UH's best finish in school history doesn't outweigh the national appeal of Clemson/Auburn and/or ACC/SEC. Become a perennial power if you want perennial power time slots.
Hate sounding like a conspiracy theorist, but what's Herman's real angle in regards to the shared camp with A&M? "Htown takeover", but if we can't...let's "keep Texas recruits home"....sounds a bit incongruous Optimistic view: Herman is thinking big and considers us comparable to the top dogs, but is reasonable enough to recognize that a joint camp with A&M will get more/better recruits than one run by just UH. Pessimistic view: Herman is toning down #Htowntakeover in favor of #Texas in order to pay homage/gain the favor of A&M fans + administration. Thus, creating a landing pad for himself once Sumlin is canned. The answer should be obvious (especially in light of the $1mill locker room), but I still have my doubts...
No conspiracy needed. The simple fact is that the combined effort is better for UH. Why A&M agreed to do this, I'm not sure. Maybe because it rankles UT and the B12.
Anything that annoys the Big 12-2 is great. Maybe there will be a UH v A&M game scheduled in the future.
UH and the "H-Town takeover" is the hot ticket right now and A&M has got to get some of it's swag back. Just need a Swagcopter sighting...
