    Will choose between us and aggy. Crystal ball trending towards Texas. Worth noting aggy already has 2 safeties committed.

    Rockwall S Deshon Elliott plans to make his decision in mid-spring and mentioned it would be tough for anyone to beat the Horns following his Jr. Day visit.

    OrangeBloods reporting OL Conner Dyer of Mesquite Horn may be in town this weekend for the second Junior Day. He's trying to work things out with the staff right now, so we should know by today or tomorrow if he's coming in. Definitely an offer candidate.

    Had no interest in Texas before Wickline arrived.

    @ DeShonElliott_4: Tune in Thursday to here me live on the Arkansas Radio Station! 93.3 the source!

    24/7's Crystal Ball has him at 91% Texas. HOWEVER, a few hours ago he tweeted:

    @ DeShonElliott_4: I think I forgot to tell you all on my Arkansas offer

    The previous tweet had a surprised face at the end of it. It's important to note, though, that he hasn't visited Arkansas (to my knowledge).

    Evidently he spent some time in Arkansas for family reunions years ago and likes Arkansas for its architectural design program. The weird thing is he said he wants to visit Arky on Saturday, but later he tweeted he'd announce on Thursday. (source)

    Does this mean no more going across the street during halftime of the football games?

    I wonder how well this goes over. I understand the reasoning and that many folks to go to football games drunk already, but the lack of beer sales in Austin I think add to the family environment in Austin. I can tell you from attending multiple UT and UTSA games a year I'd rather take my kids to a UT game due to the amount of drunk s running around the AlamoDome on game day.

    Collect all the drunk guys in one end and allow fireworks! That should fix some of the "boring atmosphere" problems as well.

    what is this success you speak of?

    If 8-5 gets you this, I wonder would would happen to this university if they actually win something.

    Two notes from Inside Texas...

    -Five-star CB Kendall Sheffield will not be at JD2 this weekend because of track obligations, but has had a handful of conversations with different staff members recently and getting back on a campus is a priority. A&M is still considered to be the leader.

    -OL Tyler Higby of Houston Kinkaid will be on campus this weekend.

    thus the adverbial phrase that proceeded the word success-"way too giddy". this is not success. just the mere scent of it has the university on the precipice of selling its soul to the devil. this is not a unique situation to a&m, of course. texas has had more than its fair share of social miscreants over recent years, so it's going to happen. the real concern is that these are underclassmen setting the tone and there has to be some accountability that resonates at some level, whether that is in the locker room, from the coaching staff or at the administrative level.

    Rumor on 24/7 from a poster that senior FB Chet Moss, senior DB Leroy Scott and redshirt freshman OLB Deoundrei Davis are gone. The poster cited a buddy who purportedly walked on last year.

    Wow. I'm surprised. Especially after OrangeBloods (or whoever Shuttlesworth "works" for) reported that Scott had been bustin' his ass off this off-season. I was a huge fan of Davis, so that one really bothers me.

    It would be even more powerful if it came from the upperclassmen on the team.

    I don't know what's behind it, but nine guys have set their Crystal Ball picks for WR Ryan Newsome to Texas since Feb. 23, including guys switching their picks from Tech and Baylor. It's now at 64% for Texas.

    Five guys have also thrown in for CB Jordan Tolbert to switch from U of H to Texas.

    The one problem I had with Manziel is that he seemed to have a strong feeling of en lement and when the team leader has issues with en lement it will rub off on the ones behind him.

    Texas had the same issues with the Big 3 and Ced Benson. Thank heavens for guys like Derrick Johnson Aaron Ross who were guys that led by example. Vince also had it but his off field habits weren't as noticeable or published as Manziels were. McCoy was another great leader that didn't have it. The biggest problem at Texas was the coaching staff was full of guys who thought they were en led and it did come out.

    IMO the best thing we get with Strong is a guy who hates en lement and believes in discipline. That alone will make this team better.
