Both his parents now want him to go to Texas
Holland said he knew about the Jackson sidetrip but was asked to sit on it

He also said a commit was coming "soon"

Dbook, I understand your source and mine had dinner together this evening. Along with a popular web personality. Small world.
Eric Fowler – some backstory . . . I did not know this until today, but Desmond Jackson and Fowler are step-brothers. We had some ground to make up with Fowler from the start due to some negative vibes from the perception that our coaches favored the young guys. Just didn't sit well for a while with Fowler's dad, having watched Jackson and the defense this year. Coaches have made up that ground and more. The film room presentation where Fowler's role was broken down in film and whiteboard . . made a big impression . . lasting impression. Based on what I know now, I expect Fowler to be in this class. We'll see after the visit to LSU. Credit should also go to Derrick Roberson, who did a great job of recruiting Fowler, too.
Was told that we have one more OL addition to this class. We are going to be a very talented bunch there. Young. But very talented. Imagine them in two years. The Shackleford situation is perfect. Early enrollee, time to grow up in the system the moment they begin to implement. So he'll have the same time with it as everyone else. This relieves Vahe of having to make that move, which he does not want to make at all. One veteran OL who has yet to really contribute may be told to explore his options.
We have FIVE DLs that are giving us serious consideration. I can see us getting 3 of the 5, minimum.

Hudson made 1st Team All-State.
Congrats to Hudson. Do we have a realistic chance of getting him (considering the "Mark Henry" connection and his OV this week)
or is it thought he will stay with his Baylor commit? I would dearly love for Texas to get him! I know there has been a lot of discussion
about him and his sister's track scholarship to Baylor...just wondering if there's any chance he might still come to UT. I would appreciate
any insight from others' opinions as to this.

Might as well, everyone is talking about him. Hudson. My friend thinks he's ours now.
