According to 247, USC is closing up shop on WR recruiting if they land Feaster on Friday.
That would leave Oregon and Texas to duel it out for Lott, but they like Oregon in that scenario.
His vid is crazy good
Rowden committed to Tech today.
Per OTF, Tech is doing their best to make a move with OL Felix Ojo before his decision tomorrow.
They have the largest NIL offer on the table for him currently, and he shares the same agent as Tech's million dollar softball pitcher.
Burton is commenting like he's trying to let his subscribers down easy right now.

He added that many recruitments have been getting to a financial level that isn't making sense for Texas, and they've had to deal with those decisions several times in the past two weeks.
Question as it relates to NIL, I thought all teams were all now operating off the same 20.5 million budget. Honestly, I haven't been tracking.
On the NIL front, it's still the Wild West despite the new legislation.
Plus, that "salary cap" figure applies only to what the school can directly pay the players and doesn't factor in everything else like outside endorsements or schools/boosters finding other ways to operate.
Tech was not in his Top 4 yesterday.
Brutal.
Feaster to USC.
Wiltfong from On3 said he's hearing that those close to OL Felix Ojo are telling the Texas staff they remain in the best position headed into the announcement, and Sark was involved in those conversations yesterday where he was "very direct about a lot of things."
However, things are still pointing towards Tech.

Behind the scenes....pfff. doesn't take a genius to figure this one out. It's not because he thinks Tech is in a better position for a NC.
According to OTF, Texas won't continue recruiting Ojo.
So, a revenue share contract means that is directly paid by the school, right?
Good!!!!
UT grad, longtime UT recruiting follower, and rare poster. I'm getting a bit weary of how things have changed in recruiting over the past year or so. NIL / Portal - both I think are overall negatives and are ruining college football. It is nuts that UT has struck out on so many good recruits over the past couple of weeks...recruits that we seemed to be strongly in the mix for. I get it, it's still early. And Sark somehow pulls out a great recruiting class every year. However, it's not just what is the best school and who can best develop the players anymore. For a Texas Tech to come in at the last minute and flip Ojo, that's pretty indicative of where things are at. What five-star player would want to go play 3-4 years in Lubbock in the lousy Big 12? Really? It truly is all about the $$$ now. Who can pony up the most. $5.1 mil for a high school player to play college ball? Really? I wish Ojo the best, but I agree that Sark should fold his tent with this guy.
