Probably not relevant. Just found it interesting. Hampton basically just transferred to a team that likely doesn't need his services to win another state championship. But Carthage is an East Texas program that any sane coach would be looking to get a connection to. Seems to me Texas has a really good in with Carthage.


Sources confirmed that Aeryn Hampton (5'10, 175) has enrolled at Carthage.

Hampton is one of the state's most heavily recruited prospects, checking in as a DCTF four-star prospect at No. 47 in the 2024 DCTF Hot 100.

Hampton has racked up over 25 scholarship offers and recently named a Top 7: Texas, Alabama, LSU, Michigan, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Oregon.

Hampton is known to be one of the state's most dangerous two-way threats. He posted 1,161 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns, 74 tackles, and nine interceptions (five returned for TDs) to earn second-team all-state honors as a junior in 2022 at Daingerfield.

Carthage won the 4A Division II UIL State Championship in 2022, giving the Bulldogs nine state title wins under the direction of Scott Surratt.
 
So after doing some digging, this kid has transferred A LOT. Apparently his mom got a job in Carthage, TX. Not that you guys care but Carthage isn't exactly a bustling city, but they some how manage to get a ton of great move ins.

Back to Hampton transferring, I found this on an East Texas message board:
"Just to map out Hampton's athletic activities over the years....

Started off at Moore MS in Tyler. Then had a stint at Whitehouse, then down to the Austin area, then back to John Tyler very briefly, then to Daingerfield and now Carthage.

I was not at all shocked that he decommitted from UT. I actually called it before it happened based on how often he moves now. Bama bound is my bet."

If his mom is actually a teacher or in school admin the moving around makes sense.
 
I'm sure there's plenty of counter examples, but it seems like more often than not highly-ranked WR recruits with this guy's measurables end up busting in college once they can't simply outquick everyone else on the field. he seems like Tyjon Lindsay 2.0.
