College Football: Recruiting news (2/1/10)

  • As many of you know by now, DeChe' Milburn will sign with Texas State on National Signing Day. I spoke with several people close to his recruitment and they said the Bobcats were a clubhouse leader.
  • That being said, if a team from the FBS blows Texas State's offer out of the water, all of this could change.
  • One person I spoke to about Milburn said he has "FBS talent" and would "fit perfectly as a wide receiver on Baylor or Houston."
  • Milburn has great hands and uses his size (5-foot-11, 180 lbs.) to his advantage.
  • Not many recruiters in Texas knew about Milburn since he moved to Texas last summer. They didn't know what to think about this new wide receiver putting up numbers like his (81 catches, 1,344 yards and 16 touchdowns).
  • I also confirmed that Texas State is no longer in the running for Cy Wilson.
  • I spoke with Wilson's high school coach (Tim Buchanan) and he said, "...being a SWT alumni, Class of 1983, tried everything I could to get Texas State to offer Cy, but Coach (Brad) Wright did not think Cy was good enough to play at Texas State. He must have some GREAT high school players coming in to not offer Cy Wilson."
  • Wilson took a visit to Stephen F. Austin, but wasn't offered a scholarship yet.
