AUSTIN, Texas -- There has never been a football player from the state of Georgia that started his college career as a Longhorn. At least not dating back to 1947, which is the first year Texas started keeping track of its players' hometowns on its of...

Get ESPN 150 safety Jamal Adams (Lewisville, Texas/Hebron) in any competitive environment and you'll begin to understand very quickly why he's so coveted. Take for example the Dallas Nike Football Training Camp in Allen, Texas, on April 7 when he...

Four-star Texas defensive back commit Jermaine Roberts (New Orleans/Saint Augustine) understands the game and respects the process. Just because a recruit gives his verbal pledge, as Roberts did to the Longhorns on April 12, doesn't mean other pro...

If football doesn't work out for 2015 running back Jordan Stevenson (Dallas/Skyline), he should have little trouble excelling as a motivational speaker. His time on the gridiron, though, seems to be only beginning. Stevenson's career got a bi...

AUSTIN, Texas -- Class of 2015 defensive back Kendall Sheffield (Fort Bend, Texas/Marshall) walked with a bit of a lean forward on Saturday, but with good cause. He'd just won three silver medals at the UIL State Track and Field Meet in Austin. Sh...

AUSTIN, Texas -- Versatility is a trait widely admired by college programs, but one that doesn't always come in the form of someone 6-foot-6 and 247 pounds. Koda Martin's size alone makes him an attractive prospect, but couple it with his ability...

Every Wednesday, HornsNation will take a look at Texas' week in recruiting in Tales From The Road. This week's targets: The Longhorns had the luxury of having several prospects come to them over the weekend due to the UIL State Track and Field Mee...

The Longhorns scored a huge coup with the commitment of four-star cornerback Jermaine Roberts (New Orleans/Saint Augustine) in April. But he sits alone as the only defensive back verbal pledge for Texas in 2014. That's going to change. Question is...

To say Victor Evans (Dallas/Skyline) is ecstatic about his new Longhorns offer would be a vast understatement. Words can't really describe how excited he was to pick up the offer on Friday. "My head coach is down at Austin for the track meet and h...

Fret no more Longhorns faithful, Texas has finally offered ESPN 150 athlete Davion Hall (Texarkana, Texas/Liberty-Eylau). Now the question becomes, can coach Mack Brown and Co. sway him away from his verbal commitment to Baylor? Only time will ...

That old saying about keeping your friends close but your enemies closer seemed to come to light today in DeSoto, Texas. That's where Nick Orr, one of the Eagles' best 2014 prospects, was told he now has offers from longtime rivals Missouri and Ka...

AUSTIN, Texas -- If all goes according to Texas' plan in 2014, running backs Malcolm Brown and Joe Bergeron will both return for their senior seasons and Johnathan Gray will be back for his junior campaign. That's a lot of ifs, though, which can d...

Attending camps like the Nike Football Training Camp can open a whole bunch of eyes and put things into a real perspective for its participants, especially those younger in age. It certainly had that effect on 2015 linebacker Cameron Townsend (Mi...

It's convenient to assume that Tennessee is the only UT on the mind of ESPN 150 outside linebacker Dillon Bates (Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla./Ponte Vedra). His father, Dallas Cowboys special teams legend Bill Bates, played for the Volunteers in the ear...

There is a lot a young defensive back can learn through repetitions against an older sibling or friend. But it's just not going to have the same effect as, say, going up against an NFL wide receiver. The talent gap was extreme, but Bailey Phillips...

ESPN 150 defensive end Solomon Thomas (Coppell, Texas/Coppell) is about as unassuming a high-profile recruit as one will come across. He doesn't get tangled up in the vastness of recruiting. He's not one to openly speak of his achievements. He's a...
