Inside Texas saying grad transfer QB Malik Zaire will not be making a decision this week.

He's back to waiting on the SEC ruling to see if can play for Florida.

That ruling should come down next Friday or Saturday and he'll pick another school if he doesn't get good news.

Happy Friday guys! A little early morning excitement from years past! Enjoy

Anwar's report last night didn't say which team is the other finalist along with Texas, but the safe bet is Florida.

That written, there's more to the story, but that's where things get delicate. Would it be enough for me to write that Herman should block a transfer to Missouri where Elliott and Southall's former defensive tackle coach, Brick Haley works? Would you be able to put 2 + 2 together?

It's an issue that goes way beyond athletics and punishments from the NCAA. Illegal recruiting and violations very specific to gaining unfair compe ive advantages in sports and compe ion warrant action for the NCAA. However, this is just in a league of its own.

I agree, but at the very least, whatever athletic programs are involved should be severely punished.

Brewster (N.H.) Academy wing Sid Wilson will announce his college choice on Saturday at 6 p.m. at Harlem’s Milbank Center, his father told ZAGSBLOG.

Wilson recently visited St. John’s and UConn and was slated to visit Texas May 30-June 1, but that trip won’t happen now. Wilson previously visited Texas.

Texas: “Texas is Texas. Shaka Smart. VCU. It just speaks for itself. The Big 12 is a little different. They’re a little bit more physical, probably the closest to the NBA. As far as that standpoint, they’re different. Very, very big University. And you can’t say anything bad about Shaka, he’s a great guy. I have nothing bad to say about them.” Asked if Harlem native Mohamed Bamba’s commitment would impact Wilson, his father said, “That’s not really going to impact our decision because he’s only there for one year. If we was doing one year, too, that would influence our decision. Mohamed is gone, so….” Asked if Wilson had already made up his mind, his father said, “We’re still in the last thought processes of it.”

From one of the national writers on 24/7 concerning OL Junior Angilau of Salt Lake City, UT:

"In my opinion Texas had the edge heading into the summer. The Longhorns are doing a great job recruiting him and he felt very comfortable in Austin."
