Ditto. If indeed this is true, inquiring minds would like to know!

I read on another site that his career could be over from the concussion suffered from the car wreck.

Per Higs:

"I heard multiple big time Texas HS football players are going to transfer to IMG Academy....The TXHS coaches have tried to rally together to ban IMG from being able to come into the state of Texas and take these star players from them. It appears as if they are going to do that very thing....When the names get out it will be a very big deal."

10 wins and we get this guy I would assume from this.

Five-star DT wants to see nine wins from Texas

Winning is the simple answer to everything.

Texas has landed two highly ranked recruiting classes under head coach Charlie Strong, but in order to keep the momentum going, the Longhorns must produce on the field this season.

Five-star defensive tackle Marvin Wilson told Horns247 that he specifically wants to see UT win nine games.

“They have to win,†Wilson said. “That’s all they have to do. They have to win. I would say nine wins. If they can make it to nine wins, they would be in the discussion big time, especially as a kid that grew up watching Texas.â€

Wilson is one of Texas' most important targets in the 2017 class. He is currently considering UT, Alabama, LSU, Ole Miss, Florida State and a handful of other major programs.

At 6-foot-4, 329 pounds, Wilson is ranked as the No. 1 defensive tackle in the country and No. 1 overall prospect in the nation, according to 247Sports Composite.

Honestly, I can't knock the kids' reasoning... as a matter of fact, I share his thoughts.  

I'd like to see nine wins from Charlie & Co this year.
