Two notes from OrangeBloods...
-DE Mark Jackson of Cibolo Steele will be making his commitment in about two weeks. He spoke with the UT coaches last night, he'll visit A&M next weekend and decide the following week. OrangeBloods likes UT's chances but I think the smart bet is the Aggies.
-2017 WR Hezekiah Jones will find his way to the coaches' offices today.
OrangeBloods reporting OL Darius James is transferring to Auburn.
Dude has got talent so he probably will do well there. He doesn't have the discipline to be a Charlie Strong athlete, but that doesn't mean he can't play the game.
Not shocking news, but DT Ed Oliver of Spring Westfield confirmed to OrangeBloods that Houston is his #1 school and he's not talking with UT.
Per OrangeBloods, RB Kameron Martin did not make it to the coaches' offices this weekend.
He spoke with Strong on the phone before he left campus.
OrangeBloods had a little more on DE Mark Jackson of Cibolo Steele and said he actually made a surprise visit to campus yesterday with his mother.
Not sure how much it matters in the bigger picture, but he wants to major in business.
24/7 saying another new name to watch out for is DT Stephon Taylor of New Orleans, LA.
Coach Haley saw him last week.

Aggie had their chance last year to erase the memories of Case McCoy Eternal Scoreboard...but alas, will continue to eat that sandwich...and they will enjoy every bite.
Oh yeah, the blame definitely goes to Aggy for getting asshurt and leaving
Update on recent OL offer Donavaughn Campbell of Ponchatoula, LA (OrangeBloods):
"I'm definitely going to Austin, definitely going to visit. I don't have anything set up yet."
"I have an interest in Texas and everywhere else," Campbell said. "I committed to LSU because it was somewhere I wanted to be. But I'm looking around to make sure I made the right choice."
"Me and coach Brick have been talking for a while. He was asking if I was afraid to leave Louisiana, I said 'No.' Then they offered. Me and coach Brick have been cool since he's been recruiting me since two years ago at LSU. We talked on Friday afternoon, he put coach Strong on the phone and he offered me."
DE Mark Jackson discusses his unofficial visit to Texas on Saturday (24/7):
“It went well,” Jackson said. “It was my first time taking my mother with me. We went around campus, and I got to learn more about the education. I want to major in business, and they have one of the best in the world. Everything on the football side was great, too.”
“My mom loved it,” Jackson said. “She really liked Coach Strong’s character and the level of education at Texas. Coach Strong told us a lot about the networking opportunities after college, and he really pushed being in Austin. He also told us about playing for Texas and the pride that comes with it.”
“It pushes Texas up a little bit,” Jackson said. “But right now, it’s still Oklahoma and A&M then Texas and Baylor. I’m going to think about it a lot more before making my decision. I definitely want to make it at the beginning of summer.”
2017 LB Baron Browning of Kennedale talks about his visit with Coach Strong this weekend (24/7):
“Talking to Coach Strong, people just don’t see the real Coach Strong,” Browning said. “Looking from the outside in, you think, ‘man he’s crazy for doing this (offering players later than other schools).’ But everything he does is for the sake of his players. He does care about his team and making sure they’re going to succeed in life. He truly cares.”
“They see me as an outside backer fitting into their 4-3 and 3-4 schemes,” Browning said. “They see me being a force playing from the outside in.”
