Lufkin (Texas) High 4-star DL Zion Williams is not on campus, and is not expected in this weekend per a source in Austin ... OTF can confirm. 

Texas will continue to work on getting Williams on campus in the fall, depending on how the DL position shakes out into the fall. 

Williams is expected to announce for LSU July 4. 

 

Not good! Possibility he pushes his announcement back?

Does this make sanders the only DL on campus this week?

Still undefeated.

That makes getting sharma or Charles that much more important 

I think LSU would have been the pick July 4th, even if he had made it in this weekend. I think the later visit during the season actually helps the efforts to flip late.

He’s officially on flip watch! 😜

Nah. Expected to commit to LSU July 4 barring a change of plans.

Let's see if he actually comes in during the fall.

A lot of pressure on Texas ... 

Sharma, Charles, Wynn and keeping Brandon Brown. 

Got to win 2 of 4 ... hit 50% on national DL recruitments.

Yes. He's more of a developmental prospect. Stash and develop type IMO. 

Texas A&M not pushing real hard, or isn't expected to. 

Interesting that Bo Davis finally decides to recruit well after the wheels are in motion for him to leave Austin.

Where is this narrative coming from? He's recruiting the same level guys (literally the same guys - zion and brown) that he was recruiting here. 

Sark's been known for his late season flips on priority targets.

Dang it.  

If we know he's committing to LSU in 2 weeks, would we rather have wasted the OV now or have the card to play during the season? Don't mind the news given the situation as is.

IT reporting he has scheduled visit for Georgia game and that he is dealing with something outside of football. 

Do I have this right?  Bo's recruiting at UT was meh.  Now him leaving for LSU may have cost us Dom McKinley and Robinson last year (Robinson was shaky regardless) and potentially Zion and Brown this year. 

That's one hell of a series of gut punches.

Over under years that Bo actually coaches Zion?

More than okay with this.  Removes a negative vibes from the folks visiting.  

Focus on Sanders.  GET one in the bag even if developmental!

Have to take Sanders for sure. Development project or not, he has skills that aren’t common for people his size. We need 4 DT’s in  this class.  

If Texas loses one or two games, and LSU loses four or five games. He very well could flip.

I have officially entered DGAF mode about Williams.  He wants to go to LSU.  Fine.  Won't be following his career.  

Agree. I gave up on him a while ago. I’m much more concerned on keeping Brown committed and adding from there.
