Quotes from DE Andrew Fitzgerald of Flower Mound Marcus (24/7):

“It (the UT offer) came out of the blue,” Fitzgerald said. “It was a big surprise, but I’m really excited about. I really like Texas. I’m pretty high on them. I’ve always liked them. It’s in-state, and they’ve always been one of my favorite teams.”

“If I’m being honest, I hadn’t talked to them at all,” Fitzgerald said. “Like I said, the offer came out of the blue. But starting this past weekend, we’ve begun building a relationship. So we’ll see where it goes from here.”

“I had a great time,” he said. “Even though they didn’t win, it was a great game to go to. There was a lot of energy. I think later on in the next couple of seasons, Coach (Charlie) Strong is going to build something big, so it’s something to consider.”

Quotes from DT/DE D'Andre Christmas-Giles of New Orleans, LA after receiving a UT offer (24/7):

"I had been talking to Coach (Brick) Haley for four or five weeks,” Christmas-Giles said. “I gave him a call, and he told me that I had an offer. I was really excited. It’s great to get an offer from a prestigious program like Texas.”

"I’m getting to know the coaching staff more,” he said. “I feel like my relationship with Coach Haley has been building up pretty fast. Coach Strong seems like a great coach. He told me that he watched my film and likes what I can do. He wants to get me down there for a visit.”

"I haven’t shut down my recruitment,” Christmas-Giles said. “And I like Texas. I lived in Fort Worth for a couple of years after Hurricane Katrina, and my two favorite schools were TCU and Texas, so I’ve always liked them. I’m most definitely interested.”
