I missed this about a week ago but 2018 S Cameron Jones of Euless Trinity committed to Texas Tech.
Just received an Oklahoma offer last night.

It's cool but hard to get excited until name is on dotted line. ..
Inside Texas reporting DE Lagaryonn Carson has been suspended by his high school coach for the second time this year.
They're also saying his grades haven't been getting better, so his future eligibility is very much in question.
In my mind, Carson isn't a commitment anymore be he probably won't qualify.
I'm with you on that one, if he sticks and gets in, great he is a heck of an athlete, but I'm not counting on it.
Not that slick, imo
Everyone has their opinion on how many games Strong needs to win in order to survive, but here are some quotes from big money guys (Scout):
---"If you get better after beating Notre Dame, then get better after beating UTEP, you shouldn't go out to Cal and face a team that couldn't protect its quarterback in a loss to San Diego State and look like you have no clue how to stop an Air Raid offense," said one Big-Money Critic who has been involved in every coaching change at Texas since John Mackovic was fired in 1997 (the last year Oklahoma State beat Texas in Stillwater).
"If you can't stop an Air Raid offense in the Big 12, and you're a defensive guru, then you're not a defensive guru. Either that, or you have hired the wrong people to carry out the very job that made you head-coaching material - and we're in trouble. Because the offense was God-awful the first two years under Charlie, and the defense has been God-awful the last two years. Now that the offense is fixed, we're realizing just how bad the defense has been.
"And that's the last thing you'd expect from a Charlie Strong team - for Christ's sake."
---"The problem with Charlie is," said another Big-Money Critic, "right when you think he's making progress and showing you he can out-coach the best in the business - like Bob Stoops and Brian Kelly - his team will look clueless against a coach who got fired at the end of the season at Iowa State or against a Cal team that had a doorstop at left tackle, and we couldn't see it."
---"If Strong wins seven games, he's fired. Fenves will be forced to fire him. Trust me. Our conference is winnable with our talent. And Strong deserves the credit for bringing in the talent. And I love what Charlie stands for in life with his core values. It's clear that resonates with recruits and their families. But what's killing Charlie right now is Tom Herman. The sense is Herman has gone 13-1 with a win over Florida State and then beat Oklahoma with less talent. And the sense about Charlie is, right when you think he's kickin' ass and taking names, like against OU and Kansas State last year or against Notre Dame this year, he serves you a sh*t sandwich. And too many people right now think Herman, a former graduate assistant at Texas, is the next Urban Meyer or Nick Saban."
