Highly doubtful this happens if he sticks to his May timeline, but:
Nkemdiche wants to visit Texas
Robert Nkemdiche wants to visit Texas.
He doesn’t know when he’d do so and hasn’t had much contact with Texas coaches lately, but the elite junior defensive end from Loganville (Ga.) Grayson told HornsNation he is interested in seeing UT.
Nkemdiche is arguably the top 2013 recruit in the country and is considering Ole Miss, Alabama, LSU, Clemson and Georgia
Nkemdiche no longer plans to announce on May 18th.
He said he wants to visit Texas, Oregon and some Cali schools as well.

Just saw that. Interesting. A quote from the article:
“I haven’t talked to him (Coach Searels) for a while, but he messaged me on Facebook and I wrote back,” Nkemdiche said. “He’s a good dude, I like him. We have a pretty good relationship. He wants me to check Texas out. He’s been recruiting me pretty good.”
Didn't realize his high school coach left. Hope he ends up at Georgia.

I don't know if this article is free, but it talks about the new Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge coming up in July:

Quick update from Inside Texas on S Vonn Bell:
-His high school coach says he'll be "absolutely shocked" if UT doesn't make his Top 5
-Also mentioned that the way Bell talks about UT stands out, but he did enjoy all of the schools he visited over Spring Break
-The family is aware of UT's reputation of putting DBs in the NFL and Bell's coach has reiterated that to them
-Bell's high school starts spring practice on May 9th and UT is expected to make their two allowed visits during the evaluation period

Recent quotes from ATH Daje Johnson:
"I just started my job on March 30 so that's been keeping me busy. Then I train with a guy a lot, so I've been staying pretty busy," Johnson said.
"I've been working out with him since my sophomore year. I feel like I'm getting bigger. I usually work out after I get off work, around 9 p.m. For the most part, I feel like I'm getting bigger, faster, just getting ready."
"I'm not nervous really at all. UT has a lot of resources, so I'm just going to use that to my advantage. I'm definitely not nervous at all on the football side," Johnson said. "Before I head down there, I just want to stay in good condition to pass the conditioning tests that we'll do. I'm looking forward to working with coach (Bennie) Wylie."
"My impression is that things looked solid," Johnson said of the spring game. "They told before I really signed that I'll have a chance to play early. I'll be at every spot on offensive side, kind of a slash running back. I'll do whatever - utility back. punt return, kick return, running back, safety, whatever."
"I didn't know right away. There was still some thinking about going to TCU. It really hit me on my visit. It was just a gut feeling. One night in my hotel, I decided (Texas) was where I wanted to go. On Saturday morning (of his visit), I called TCU and said I was switching. Then it was official once I was in Mack Brown's office," Johnson said.

Some of you may remember DB Charles Jackson of Klein Collins from the class of 2011. Very talented but UT stayed away because of grade issues and he ended up signing with Nebraska. Well, he's been cleared by the NCAA and will be headed to Lincoln in June.

UT released a statement today saying WR Bryant Jackson has broken a bone in his right foot that will require surgery. He's expected back for pre-season camp in August.
West Mesquite WR Eldridge Massington won the 15-4A 100 meters with a time of 10.66
dude is 6'3" 200+
put me down for this guy if we take another WR
Texas safety signee Adrian Colbert (Mineral Wells, Tx) ran 20.86 200-meters today.
Too bad they are waiting on Samples who has the same skill set as Warrick.
Like Inside Texas has said, he's a M. Williams with hands. Hope the UT staff re-visits this one during the spring eval period. Big-time threat on the outside.
QB Tyrone Swoopes has been invited to Nike's The Opening. The link below is a video with comments from the coaches at the Elite 11 in Dallas:
http://espn.go.com/high-school/footb...lip?id=7805584
*WR Marcus Johnson won his district in the 200m.
*CB Maurice Smith won his district in the 100m.
Samples is a huge prospect for several reasons.
Obviously, he's a playmaker, but even more importantly, the dude is just intense and plays like he has something to prove. I saw Samples at a camp and you can tell he's a guy that pushes the envelope and was just busting it every single opportunity regardless of if people were watching or weren't. And he had a reputation amongst the players of being a competitor. Love to see that in a player.
Let's not forget his father Reginald Samples is the coach of Skyline. I wouldn't think it would be wish to brush him off just yet.
But that doesn't even matter, he is being recruited by everybody for a reason.
LSU offered Dontre Wilson as an ATH/CB. Weird
24/7 reporting CB Antwuan Davis is on an unofficial visit to Notre Dame right now.
Unfortunate news with injury to Bryant...let's hope for speedy recovery (fall camp) or possible depth chart casualty with incoming FRSH Jones, Johnson
Communication lines for coaches should re-open come Monday 4/16...TFloss any thoughts who may commit before end of spring?
BTW...whateva happened to posts from the BFLT? No noise on BON or ST
Former five-star DE Aaron Lynch leaving Notre Dame:

That's correct. The spring eval period starts officially on the 15th of April but the coaches aren't allowed to be on the road on Sundays, so everyone should venture out on Monday. Just a reminder that coaches are allowed to see a player in person two separate times before May 31st.
For UT, an obvious answer, but I like both CB Antwuan Davis and CB Maurice Smith to commit before school ends. I know Smith mentioned recently that he'd like to push his timeline back until his senior season but I don't really buy that. I'm honestly more interested to see the new names that surface during this time and who the staff will take a longer look at. Like we talked about last night, Massington's track times are enough to make Wyatt do a double-take.
Hope y'all can see this article, but it lists the updated roster for the 2013 US Army All-American Bowl and WR Jake Oliver is the latest UT addition:

Interesting read from IT (Q & A w/ Jesus) implying that Smith slow-playing offer w/ Texas may lead to chasing Luke if Smith does not commit (who was thought to be 100% if offerred)...watching vids on these DB prospects Luke & Davis would be my choice
