Two of Louisiana's best visiting Aggieland
Shreveport (LA) Evangel 2027 QB Peyton Houston is set to visit College Station this weekend. He is regarded as one of the nation's best. He has been competing and standout while going against high school competition on the 7on7 and camp circuits for years. He and his family visited a few times over the last couple of years and they are excited to get back to College Station. Another note, he and his family are close with 2027 WR Boobie Feaster and his family. Feaster is originally from Northwest Louisiana and while it is extremely early to talk 2027s, these two are pretty special talents.Another Shreveport talent planning to be in Aggieland this weekend is Calvary Baptist 2025 RB James Simon. He has visited several times now including a Jr Day visit under Elko.This will be the first chance Houston and his family get to sit and talk with coach Klein and Trooper Taylor has done some great work with Simon since he has been in College Station. I also have to give Mason Smith some credit with both recruitments. He's done some heavy lifting with both over the last few years.
