Hopefully he will wind up at FSU but I don't expect OU to go away. They're a great program and close to home.
i've felt for a while from all his quotes and spotting him at OU game that he would end up being a sooner - so glad to see this news. anywhere but OU is a win for us at this point, I don't see him ending up at Texas under any cir stances so go Seminoles I say.

Practice report from this week:
http://barkingcarnival.fantake.com/2...m-the-asset-4/
WR Jaxon Shipley is out for the Tech game.
I'd be shocked if Johnson decommits from Tech at this point.
Hadn't seen it posted yet. Texas Tech will be UT's Thanksgiving opponent in 2012.
Ive seen the rumor, haven't seen it set in stone though. I wonder if UT will rotate opponents.
If they keep Tech on the Thanksgiving schedule on an annual basis, words wouldn't describe how huge that would be for the Raiders.
That's true especially if A&M gets cut-off from the rest of the state.
QB Jalen Overstreet had a monster regular season finale last night against White Oak. He had 27 carries, 348 yards and 5 TDs in a 44-42 victory.
Coach Harsin knows what the he's doing, sons.
It's obvious to me that we're going to run The Bone again. Kidding... sort of.QB Jalen Overstreet had a monster regular season finale last night against White Oak. He had 27 carries, 348 yards and 5 TDs in a 44-42 victory.
It's the dreadlocks. Can't go wrong with those.
Heading out to the game, lets do this
Per Hook 'Em 24/7, ATH Daje Johnson is in the house once again and decked out in his UT gear. Maybe he'll get his offer today. Some more names in attendance:
RB, Johnathan Gray, Aledo
WR, Cayleb Jones, S.F. Austin
------------------------------
OL, Ja'Braylin Thomas, Weimar
Texas A&M has offered DB Adrian Colbert.
Update on WR Marcus Johnson...talks are more serious than I thought. He and Major Applewhite had a discussion on Monday night about the transfer of WR Chris Jones and the possibility of spot opening up. Supposedly Applewhite will speak with Mack Brown soon about offering and Johnson says he'll make a decision fairly quickly should that happen. He has an invite to the Kansas State game in two weeks and he said he'll be there as long as there are no issues with the high school playoffs. I think he switches to UT if given the opportunity to do so and the timing worked out nicely with the victory over Tech today.
I'm glad Nebraska lost
I'm starting to think Marcus Johnson might be the mythical Hook Em 247 "mystery recruit." Gerry Hamilton spends a lot of time in that part of the Texas.
Can't hurt.
And Applewhite is a source of his. Very possible.
ATH Daje Johnson was not offered after the game. He says he'll return to Austin in two weeks to watch the Horns take on Kansas State. Coaches are still telling him that they are going to wait until the end of the season before making any decisions.
Updated visitors list for the Tech game. Light attendance today but the Kansas State game will be a big recruiting opportunity for UT.
RB, Johnathan Gray, Aledo
WR, Cayleb Jones, S.F. Austin
DB, Kevin Vaccaro, Brownwood
ATH, Daje Johnson, Pflugerville Hendrickson

OL, Tristan Nickelson, League City Clear Falls
OL, Ja'Braylin Thomas, Weimar
DB, Antwuan Davis, Bastrop
Some quotes from WR Marcus Johnson on a possible UT offer:
"Coach (Major) Applewhite had come up to our school and had been talking to my coaches, showing interest. He watched film and on Halloween he called," Johnson said. "He basically said he's always been interested in me and they had a spot open up because of a transfer. Nothing's 100 percent yet, but he basically told me that they're going to talk about trying to make me an offer when the spot officially opens up."
"He asked me if I'm interested. I told him I'm interested. I still have great respect for Texas Tech. They were the first team who believed d in me, my first offer.
"Whatever happens, I need to make sure I make the right decision for me. If Texas offers, I'll lay everything out on paper, go over my options and make the best decision possible for myself."
"I still want to make the best decision possible. I love Texas, I love Texas Tech. I love both schools. It will basically come down to writing everything down and making sure I make the best decision possible," Johnson said. "Once I know if (an offer) is official, I'll let them know if I need some time to talk things over with my family, and then I'll probably make a decision a couple days after that."
For those who haven't seen it yet, Mizzou to the SEC is done:

**It's official that RB Traylon Shead is transferring. Most of us knew it was inevitable with RB Johnathan Gray arriving on campus for 2012. I'm guessing we'll know quickly if this gives the UT staff the opportunity to extend another scholarship offer for this class.
**DB Adrian Colbert has chosen to forgo the Baylor/OU game on November 19th and will instead make his way to Austin to watch UT in action against Kansas State. He will have the chance to sit down with Mack Brown afterwards and have his scholarship offer made official. If he doesn't end up committing shortly after that, the rest of his schedule includes an official to Baylor for the UT game on December 3rd and an official to UT for banquet weekend on December 9th and 10th.
Just a heads up that there's a chance WR Dorial Green-Beckham could be attending the UT/Mizzou game this weekend in Columbia. Hillcrest plays their second round game tomorrow night against an undefeated Union team and if they lose DGB's high school career will obviously be over. If they end up winning, their third round game will be Saturday making him unavailable. Potential for him to see UT live two weeks in a row.
