Still could happen..Lvile is set to join acc in 2014 and would get a very good pay raise if big 12 offered an invite. The problem with lvill is the the tv networks just do not see them as high profile program so there is no increase in $ from tv contracts with them coming over. I think realignment is far from over.
For those that like Jesus' stuff, the weekly Humidor was free this time around.

Word got out this morning that the Dallas Morning News published a portion of this article and it was pulled within hours. I was able to read it this morning online but the link is now broken. Bellmont acted quickly.
Jesus started gaining credibility during the coaching changes after the 2010 season, after that he has not been very credible. But what I am trying to say is that when it comes to coaching changes, he has some credibility.
Per 24/7, Texas has reached out to a late bloomer prospect in Florida. WR James Clark of New Smyrna Beach, FL received a call from Darrell Wyatt this week.

OrangeBloods reporting that 2014 RB Varshaun Nixon of Austin Lake Travis is very close to committing to Texas A&M. He's already been close to pulling the trigger once before, but decided to wait things out.

Hornsnation is saying Nixon already committed.
S Marcell Harris announced for Florida this morning.

What did 24/7 say about transfer rumors?
Not sure what 247 is saying, but Applewhite mentioned that MB tweaked his ankle in the Iowa state game which is why he didn't play. That should quiet down some of the rumors.
Shaun Nixon officially committed to A&M.

I like him a lot and don't think he'll be your typical Lake Travis guy that struggles in college. Other than having Catalon in the bag, I don't know why Texas didn't show more interest in Nixon. I think he'd be a great all-purpose guy and he should have a smooth transition into Kingsbury's offense.
Bascially said the staff is prepared to let anyone walk if they don't want to be at Texas. The only player they mentioned by name was RB Daje Johnson, but they didn't exactly say he was thinking of transferring.

that would be a nice fit.
may not go until the 3rd round due to personal issues but he could be a steal for someone
Per 24/7, Texas has a new offer out to 2014 OL Orlando Brown, Jr. of Peachtree Ridge HS in Suwanee, GA. He is the son of former Cleveland Browns OL Orlando Brown and probably the biggest kid I've ever heard of at 6'9"/375:
“Texas called and offered me tonight (Thursday),” Brown told Hookem.com. “I didn’t talk to them personally, but they offered through my coach. Coach (Stacy) Searels told him to let me know I have an offer from Texas now.”
“I’m going to try and get out there in January or February,” said Brown. “I plan to come in for their junior day when they have it.”
“Overall it’s a great college,” Brown explained. “They have a great program and great tradition. I also think that their offensive line coach, Coach Searels, is awesome. I could definitely see myself playing for a Big 12 school like Texas. Texas is a powerhouse in the Big 12 every year. As for the conference itself, it’s a great conference for compe ion.”
“I have no problem playing far away from home,” he said. “Not at all actually. I’m open to all my options, especially schools like Texas. I just want to go somewhere that has good academics, that’s a proven winner, a place that will allow me the opportunity to play my freshman year and somewhere with a great coaching staff.”

Update on WR James Clark of New Smyrna Beach, FL from 24/7. He was able to speak with Darrell Wyatt over the phone again last night but an offer has not yet been extended. Wyatt invited him to attend banquet next weekend and though he wants to take a trip to Austin, he already had a visit to Northwestern set up and doesn't want to go back on his word. Texas continues to push but no word yet on when Clark will be offered or when he plans to make it to Texas.
USC defensive coordinator, Monte Kiffin, has stated that he will resign after the team's bowl game.

Yea, and then we bring back Chizik to run the D. 2005 all over again! Him and Akina combined are money in the bank!
Nice to see Texas use their athletes consistently. Interesting dynamic with Harsin on the sideline for the first time.
