Okay, I just posted what was on Rivals a few days back.

Okay, I just posted what was on Rivals a few days back.
I was looking at the top '14 OOS defensive line prospects, and according to Rivals, Andrew Williams of Eagles Landing (GA.) has a Texas offer.

SIAP.
One of OU's 2012 signees, JUCO WR Courtney Gardner, has decided to go pro before ever stepping foot in Norman. He never enrolled at OU after signing his Letter of Intent earlier this year because he could not qualify academically. I imagine that's still the case since he's decided to enter the draft.

Update on OL/DL Andrew Billings (24/7):
“I saw them (Baylor) play Kansas this past weekend,” Billings said of Baylor. “It was just an unofficial visit and I went to check out everything again.”
“I’m planning on getting down to Texas soon,” Billings told Hookem.com. “In the next home game or two. I’m not exactly sure which one yet, but it will be soon so I can check them out again, see how they do and everything else.”
“I’m just trying to set up a few more visits to those places,” he explained. “I want to check them all out again and go from there. I don’t have a timeline set or anything like that. I don’t know when I’ll decide.”
That could be fun. I think Alamo Bowl is more likely because OU could possibly lose another game (@WV, @TCU).
I agree. OU needs to win out for Texas to have a shot at the Cotton and these next two games for UT are in no way automatic wins.
Kentucky fires head coach Joker Phillips. Early rumors say Bobby Petrino will not be considered.

Call me crazy but I still think Texas can go to a BCS bowl winning out and OU losing one game.
For those that haven't seen this video on ESPN yet, this could be the longest return in football history. Check out this video from Mission Sharyland HS:

I suppose we could go to a bcs bowl if that happened, but that is a big if. I do think OU will lose another game since their last four games aren't necessarily easy against BU, WV, TCU, and OSU. The hard part is us beating KSU, which can only happen if we improve upon our performance vs Tech and not go backwards. Even then it will be tough.
Oh and we can't overlook ISU and TCU.
True. And you know what else??
Kansas St losses one game (Colin Klein might miss @TCU) and OU losses one game and Texas beats Iowa St and TCU and suddenly you have a Big XII Championship game in Manhattan between Texas and K State. I know it's a longshot but the season is still no over and there's a lot to look forward to.

Sad news today.
University of Texas confirms ex-football coach Darrell Royal has died in Austin at age 88.
R.I.P coach!
Thoughts and prayers with his family.
Latest with 2014 OL Demetrius Knox (24/7):
“My leader now is a surprise,” Knox said while laughing. “I’m a football player, so it’s my job to dominate and entertain the people. Everyone will see soon. Right now I’m just looking at new teams now to see what everyone has to offer."
“I’m still interested in them (Texas) big time,” Knox said of Texas. "My best friend (Daniel Gresham) is committed there so they have a huge pull on me. Every day I hear UT this and UT that. I just feel like I have to sit back and give other schools a chance too.”
“I talk to Texas a couple of days every week,” Knox told Hookem.com. “I talk with Coach (Mack) Brown and Coach (Stacy) Searels.”
“Not at all,” said Knox. “We still want to play together. I wish he had more offers to choose from but its Texas and Ole Miss. He chose Texas because he really likes them, so that’s where he’ll be going. But at the end of the day, you have to do what is best for you.”
“Ole Miss and Notre Dame are the two most recent offers,” Knox said. “They are real good schools and I’ve had a chance to visit with their coaching staffs.”
“Notre Dame is a really cool school. I went to the Oklahoma game when they played them. Their offensive line coach is very nice and I talk with Coach (Brian) Kelly daily it seems like. He’s a good man. I feel like he actually cares about his players,” Knox explained.
“I'll see Ohio State and Michigan on November 24th and TCU on December 1st,” Knox said. “I’ll also be taking visits to Notre Dame, Texas, USC, Oregon, UCLA, Florida State and Alabama.”
“I’ve been talking to my coach and family about it all,” explained Knox. “We feel its best that I commit after the season. I plan to make it before the end of my junior year.”

Good write-up from ESPN on Coach Royal:

Quick update on JUCO WR Quantavius Leslie of Hinds CC in Raymond, MS (OrangeBloods):
"He (Bo Davis) came to our last game on a Thursday," Leslie said. "We ended up winning by 10 so that was good."
"I talk to coach Davis. They're trying to get me up there for a visit at some point. I think I'm going to come visit in December," Leslie said. "They wanted me to come visit on Thanksgiving, but I'm not going to be able to do that so it will be in December."
"I really don't know much about Texas yet," Leslie said. "I know they have good tradition in their program and they win a lot."
"I' not sure on that one yet (visiting Texas A&M)," Leslie said.
"I think my strengths are my speed and my height. I'm 6-4 and can run a 4.36," Leslie said. "I can outrun defenders, can go up and get the ball. I can still improve on my route running."
2014 LB Raekwon McMillan of Hinesville, GA is another five-star according to Rivals:

Mack tweeted earlier today that the team will line up in the wishbone on the first play of the game against Iowa State. They'll also wear a DKR decal to honor Coach Royal.
