– Noah Cain Return Visit

2019 elite running back, Noah Cain (IMG Academy) tells me he will visit Texas this weekend for the Spring Game.

Cain took a visit to Oklahoma last month. I spoke with his father around that time and he reconfirmed that they still plan to make a December decision.

We’ll see if that changes after the Texas visit. We do like where Texas stands in this one.

– Texas Target Weekend Visits

A number of top Texas targets were on visits to other schools this past weekend. Three visited schools that have long been the biggest threat to Texas. Let’s review how things went…

*I exchanged texts with NaNa Osafo-Mensah a bit, while he was on his official to Notre Dame. He seemed to be enjoying himself but I didn’t get the sense, at all, that Notre Dame was able to definitively seal the deal with him, this weekend.

They’re not going to get another shot and Texas will have the last visit. So, this one is starting to look better and better for Texas.

*I haven’t checked in with Garrett Wilson just yet. He was on a official visit to Ohio State. Garrett did say, before he left to Columbus, that he believes he will be ready to announce within a week after the Texas visit.

In speaking with folks around Garrett, I can say that things went really well this weekend for Ohio State. Texas will need to knock it out of the park next weekend.

It can be done but we continue to believe Ohio State has an edge here.

*Texas A&M made waves with 2019 DL, DeMarvin Leal this past weekend. I did chat with Leal’s mother over the weekend. While some unpleasant news may come out soon regarding Leal, I don’t believe the story between Leal and Texas is even remotely over.

However, mother did say that they will not be at next weekend’s Texas Spring Game. But I do believe they will OV at a later time.

– Marcus Banks to Return to Texas

This weekend, 2019 DB, Marcus Banks released his top five, which included Texas, Auburn, Texas A&M, LSU and Alabama.

It was no surprise to see Texas make the cut. I checked in with Marcus after he dropped the list and he tells me that he will be in Austin for the Texas Spring game.

Texas will be looking to counter the momentum that Texas A&M and Oklahoma have generated after their Spring Game weekends, with a big weekend of their own.

– Testing Madness from Texas Targets

Texas DB target, Kenyatta Watson had incredible testing numbers this weekend. 45 inch vertical…45 inches! His father texted me his 40 and shuttle times which he says were 4.5 and 4.12, respectively.

And now, Kenyatta Watson is the real Super K…

Once you hit a 45 inch vertical you aren’t jumping, anymore. You’re flying. Major #Texas DB target, Kenyatta Watson II. You’re the real Super K. https://t.co/hG0X1YSO0w — Super K (@SuperK_TFB) April 16, 2018

*Another soon-to-be Texas visitor and teammate of Kenyatta Watson, Owen Pappoe, also put up some eye popping numbers. Texas needs to knock that visit out of the park…
