Around Texas: A round-up of recruiting news in the Lone Star State
Around the state of Texas, decisions are being made, visits are being taken, and offers are being extended as recruiting never stops in this great state. It is time to take a look at the latest happenings on the Lone Star state recruiting front.
A few late night recruiting quick hitters - Thursday
- I spoke to a contact who talked to Desoto DE Shemar Turner and praised the job Terry Price and Mike Elko have been doing. It seems like A&M consistently comes up in communication with Shemar no matter who he's speaking with - whether it's coaches or members of the media. Nothing earth shattering there, but it does back up the info Jason and Billy have both been hearing about one the key remaining targets.- Baylor got off to a great start in 2022 with the verbal commitment of Shadow Creek WR Randy Masters. The Bears beat out several SEC schools for his pledge. The Aggies still haven't pulled a trigger on an offer, but Masters told me directly on Sunday that he speaks with Dameyune Craig weekly. If A&M is going to want a shot at flipping him, I think they're going to need to make a move soon this fall. Baylor has got a nice pipeline opening up at Shadow Creek after they took Seth Jones at WR in last class and have Shark QB Kyron Drones committed in 2021. They've landed Bobo (nickname) in 2022 and have made a strong impression on TE Trent McGaughey. That school looks like it is going to pump out high end talent for the foreseeable future. Wise move by Aranda to tap into that early on in his tenure in Waco. - The rich got richer this week as North Shore had a big time prospect move in and add another Power 5 presence to their roster. 2022 safety Sherrod Covil Jr. made the move to the Houston powerhouse a few days ago, and he'll find his way into the top 20-30 in just about all of the state rankings for that loaded junior class now. He comes in already holding offers from Alabama, Michigan, and Penn State, among many others.
