The Highlights:
The Recruitment: Thought to be a Texas A&M lean during June official visits, Kibble visited the Aggies and the Longhorns and returned home to the Houston suburbs. Only when he got there, he was planning to pledge to Texas. Kibble committed a couple of days after and gave the Longhorns a head-to-head win over A&M.
The Projection: With his athletic, yet mauling style of play, Kibble projects best to guard. – Eric Nahlin
The Reasoning: “To be honest, I woke up Sunday and I told my mom this is it. I don’t have to go anywhere else. I feel really good here. Once we had our meeting with Coach Sark, it was me, my stepdad, my little brother, and my mom in there. We were just talking, and I just let them know ‘coach, I don’t have to go anywhere else. This is where I want to be at.’”
The Relationship: “Coach Flood, he seems like he has a plan for me. All I have to do is come in there and work, and if put the work in I’m going to get to where I need to be. I just know that I can work and I know if he gets me in the right spot, the sky’s the limit.”
The Enrollment: Kibble is a summer enrollee.

The Final Word: Texas topped Texas A&M for a prospect from a high school O-line factory thanks to dogged work from Sarkisian and Flood.
