It is pretty obvious that getting two or three JUCO offensive lineman is a must for UTSA. With the departure of Gray, and Cavanaugh there is a severe lack of depth. Here is where UTSA stands with their top JUCO lineman offers.
OT - Tanner Meyers (Coffeyville C.C.) - Some speculation came up on whether he committed over the weekend. Although he did not I would not be surprised if he ended up signing with UTSA when the deadline come around. UTSA is in a good spot with Meyers.
Chance of signing: 55%
OT - T.J. Henson (Trinity Valley C.C.) - Henson came out of nowhere really. I was not aware he was taking a visit or that the he was evened offered by UTSA. He is committed to East Carolina but when I asked him about he replied, "The head coach got fired, and I was advised to open up my recruiting." That to me means he is not committed anywhere. He does have some other visits linked up, "I am supposed to visit Tulsa this coming weekend, but I'm also looking at visiting Iowa State, and UCF. Nothing's set in stone yet." Getting Henson won't be easy he has a solid list of offers. Maybe staying in Texas will be a selling point for UTSA. I did ask him how his visit went, "It was great, I like UTSA a lot." We will see.
Chance of signing: 25%
OT - Ryan Popolizio (College of San Mateo) - UTSA has been after Popolizio for a couple of months now and I think it will pay off some with the amount of offers he's been picking up of late. Soon after his visit he got offers from San Diego State, Boise State, and Kansas State. UTSA has their work cut out with this one. It is a very good thing UTSA got him on a visit before the offers started rolling in. This is him on UTSA and San Antonio, "It was good, it's different from where I'm from but it was a cool place." Will be tough to get his services, but maybe that visit will pay off.
Chance of signing: 25%
OT - D'Tavieus Taylor (Hinds C.C.) - Taylor is set to take a visit to UTSA this weekend so I will try to get some quotes from him afterwards. He seems high on UTSA, but I will gauge his interest after his visit.
Chance of signing: 35%
Names to take off the recruiting board:
OT - Demetri Moore
OT - Karson Green
OT - Paul Ramirez
OT - Garrison Wright
OT - Dwayne Wallace
Also worth remembering that UTSA does already have a JUCO lineman committed in Stefan Beard.
