USC, Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Nebraska, Texas A&M, and Baylor are a few schools he mentioned as programs of high interest. As Brauninger reporter he will be back in College Station on March 20. CB Selman Bridges, Temple (TX) Lake BeltonBridges was really impressive today. I wanted to see him move and change directions as well as size him up and he definitely looks the part. Really long and he was smooth in transition as well. On the recruiting front he has Texas on the 25th and he is thinking about Baylor on the 31st. In April he has Arkansas, Oregon, Texas A&M, and LSU. He just came back from USC and the Trojans made a strong impression.

He has a great relationship with the entire coaching staff including Jimbo and while he doesn't have any visits scheduled he has been talking with the Aggies about an upcoming visit A few more notes Midlothian WR Bryant Wesco took home WR MVP honors and was excellent today. He had a few acrobatic grabs and he just makes it look effortless. Really fluid out there. OU and TCU appear to be the teams to beat. Red Oak 2026 WR Brayden Robinson is crazy fast and quick and created separation with ease. He's going to be a terror for the next few years. He says he plans to get out to College Station this spring. Another visitor to watch out for is Duncanville S Ka'Davion Dotson. He has camped at A&M a few times and has offers from across the country. He has been in touch with the staff and he said he's probably going to visit this spring. Colleyville Heritage 2025 RB Riley Wormley had a monster day at RB. He earned RB MVP honors and when he came running out of the backfield his routes were just different. He did a great job of making subtle movements and turning defenders around. Lewisville 2025 OL Michael Fasusi didn't disappoint. He says he plans to get back to College Station this spring too. Also really liked what I saw from Red Oak 2025 DE Kamauryn MorganGood on good, two of 25s best, DE @KamaurynM vs OT @Michael_fasusi7 @TA_Recruiting pic.twitter.com/7cm8twyNQM— Jason Howell (@Jason_Howell) March 12, 2023 Red Oak (TX) 2025 DE Kamauryn Morgan@KamaurynM | @rohawksfootball | @TA_Recruiting pic.twitter.com/3hJ6SVCFVh— Jason Howell (@Jason_Howell) March 12, 2023 Silsbee standout ATH Drelon Miller worked at WR today and man he has a solid build. He ran some really nice routes and made himself a good target but he didn't get many great opportunities today. Also thought Taylor Tatum showed some nice flashes but didn't have many great passes thrown his way. I do have to say I was more impressed with Tiger Riden's receiving ability than I thought I would. He made some really nice snags out there today.
