OTF belives RB CJ Baxter is going to miss a "good chunk of time."

"The initial MRI results of Cedric Baxter's knee injury have been received. It's our understanding that Baxter and Texas are now in the process of getting additional opinions from other experts in the field as I type this.We do not believe it's a straight-forward case of an ACL tear. However, I was also cautioned that that doesn't mean he's out of the woods either. Even something categorized as a "sprain" is actually a slight tear, and there are other parts of the knee that may have been compromised as well."

IT also had a report...

"All the indicators IT picking up at running back is it’s going to be next man up after CJ Baxter injured his knee during Tuesday’s practice. At this time IT does not know the exact results of his MRI but we can tell from a couple of interactions that he’s going to miss enough time that people are already talking about Tre Wisner and the two freshman, Jerrick Gibson, and Christian Clark, playing a lot this season."

Quotes from WR Kaliq Lockett after committing to Texas earlier today (On3):

“It really came down to putting on for my home state and belief in what Coach Sark and Coach (Chris) Jackson have in-state for me."

“I’m going to have to do all the work. But I know if I do the work, if I compete, buy in, learn the playbook, get good grades and stay out of trouble, I know I’ll see the field freshman year and I know I’ll be successful.”

“It’s hard to say no to your home state,” Lockett said. “Especially if it’s a school you’ve been liking. You’re from the state of Texas and everyone talks about them."

“And God had put it in my heart. I knew Texas was the school for me.”

“Being around Coach Sark is a blessing itself,” Lockett said. “He’s put a lot of guys in the league and he’s been around a lot of talented guys. Right now I’m going to be in the big pond full of sharks and piranhas and I know I’m one of them sharks. That’s one of the big things as well.”

”Coach Sark’s offensive mastermind style of offense. Coach Jackson’s perspective as an NFL receiver coach coming from the NFL to college and him translating his NFL perspective to college. I like how Texas is a little bit more close than everybody else. And also my past dealings with Texas.”

Seems like a good match.
There were indications he does not like attention and such.
Im more bullish on us possibly doing some flipping at DT.
Still wouldve like to have him even though its been indicated he will take longer to catch on to his position. Once he does apparently he can be very good. Upside.
Im really liking what I have been reading about Alex January.
