The 247 "Crystal Ball" for Little has moved toward Texas this week but is currently a coin flip--Little hasn't seemed to reveal all that much info so it seems like any predictions are basically guesswork. Should make for an interesting Friday.
With these sorts of commitments it can be fun to visit other schools' fan boards. Shaggytexas has a pretty unhelpful/sprawling/ridiculous 2017 recruiting thread but what really struck me is that the thread was created when Mack Brown was still the coach. The first Texas offer of the 2017 class was made to an 8th grade Dylan Moses (a 5-star Alabama commit).
Also, can someone explain to me why Tom Herman isn't just another iteration of Charlie Strong? They're both part of the Urban Meyer tree, both very successful at mid-major programs before going to Texas. Herman's Houston experience should provide help w/ recruiting but it's not like Strong was a poor recruiter.
