2013 Texas A&M commit Derrick Griffin will take visits this summer to other schools. Does have qualification concerns.
I'm not counting on him being at A&M or any D1 school.
We lost Addison and Thompson last year after losing our head coach. Replaced Addison with Thomas Johnson - you know, the one that was committed to Texas. I'm not worried at all.
Sorry to quell your laughter, mex.The Mark Up @themarkup
#TAMU commit Ishmael Wilson on LSU rumors: "I'm already an Aggie. I’m a man of my word. When I committed, I was clear about it."
Highlights for 2014 OL Demetrius Knox:

This really doesn't mean anything.
Hassan Ridgeway gave same 'my word is solid as oak' spiel as Ishmael Wilson while almost committing to A&M on the side. They have to give that response unless they are ready to switch that instant. Wilson is a flight risk.
Getting TJ was huge for Ags. The Texas coaches really pissed him off switching Marcus Johnson and A&M wisely came hard after him at ideal time. I think he'll be early impact guy.
Sumlin is a of a recruiter and A&M is cleaning up. But realize you'll have some decommits. Bama and LSU are now going after Texas recruits with a vengence and if they blow you guys out - expect them to go after your blue chips. If Bama/LSU beats you by over 3 touchdowns and you don't even win 2 SEC games next year, Sumlin will have so tough work keeping everybody on board.
As a refresher the Ags had 18 guys committed in 2012 class that ended up signing elsewhere or having grade issues. Not sure where number of two came from.
Trevor Knight - (OU)
Marcus Johnson - (Texas)
Jevele Edwards
Davante Bourque - (Tennessee)
Lorenzo Phillips - (LSU)
Eric Davis - (Ok St.)
Colin Blake - (FSU)
Corey Thompson - (LSU)
Bralon Addison - (Oregon)
Darion Monroe - (Tulane)
Michael Wilson - (Ok St.)
Jaevon Richardson -
Marion Grice -
Logan David - grades
Dennis Smith - cut his knees off
Trent Momon - grades
Adrian Bellard -grades
Troy Green - pulled when Brenham strategy failed
There's 6 guys on that list who didn't qualify academically and a handful more who de-committed because of the coaching change.
Rumor out there that QB Cody Thomas has committed to OU.
Quotes from JUCO DE Marcus Hardison:
"It was Tuesday (of last week). I was talking to Texas A&M. My defensive line coach came in after A&M left and told me Texas was supposed to come down," Hardison said. "My coach and coach Davis are good friends. Coach Davis is supposed to call me and I think they're supposed to come down to Florida to see me."
"A couple schools have done that already, go to my high school. My coach from my high school tells me to come up there when they're coming but I'm always up there at the school lifting weights anyway. If they're coming to the high school, they'll usually tell me before so I'll make sure to be there."
"That's my favorite school, the first college team I ever liked. I think I flicked on a bowl game, it was Vince Young and Texas against Michigan in the Rose Bowl. Ever since then, I just liked Texas overall," Hardison said. "My grandmother put me on to Texas, bought me a Texas Longhorn shirt."
"I'm quick off the line, very quick off the line. I'm good in the open field. This spring that just passed, I got a lot better on my footwork and with my hands," Hardison said. "And I got better with my strength too. I have a lot to learn but think I'm very quick off the line.
"A lot of coaches want me to play inside our outside. A&M said they'd put me at D-end, but when they go to a different scheme I'd go inside. At my school now, I play regular defensive end, then when we switch to a fast d-line and the d-ends go in, I'll go inside. I can do both, but I like playing defensive end because I've gotten better at it and would like to stay at it."
OL Ja'Braylin Thomas has committed to Houston:

Rashaad Samples @10justscored
It's official I will announce my commitment on ESPN July 5-8 at The Opening!
Good clip of Bryan Harsin in the war room with the Texas QBs:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KkZX...e_gdata_player
Oscar Giles is scheduled to see LB Mike Mitc this afternoon, per 24/7.
Cody Thomas is a big pickup for OU. Although i know he is a pretty coveted baseball prospect and is certainly a risk to go that route.
from samples:
@10justscored: Okay my top 6 in "NO ORDER" is Texas Texas A&M Texas Tech USC Ohio st and Oklahoma St
Manny Diaz was in La Porte today to see 2014 DE Hoza Scott. He's scheduled to camp at Texas in a few weeks.
Duane Akina was at San Antonio Madison on Tuesday to see DT Vincent Taylor, but Taylor said he thinks UT's interest is dwindling. He's expected to announce his decision at the end of May and Baylor is the best offer he's currently holding.
Rumor being tweeted that the Big XII will be making a non-television related announcement at some point today.
Both Bryan Harsin and Stacy Searels were at Denton Guyer yesterday to watch the spring game of 2014 QB Jerrod Heard. He's a top priority for next year as things stand right now.
http://www.hudl.com/athlete/282927/jerrod-heard
“It meant a lot knowing he (Harsin) was here to see me,” Heard said following the spring game. “I always knew he was on the sidelines. It wasn’t pressure, but I was always thinking I have to do this thing right because Texas is here watching me.”
