Florida offered a Safety out of the DFW area, Edward Paris. Doubt we will push that hard for him though.

I believe Nick Watkins has Bama as his leader. Long way to NSD though

Certainly all indications are A&M and LSU split the gold with everyone else fighting for the scraps. Probably as many as 7 or 8 high quality DB's this year out of Texas and I would be surprised if more than 1 or 2 didn't go LSU/Texas. Of course I don't know how hard Saban has pushed yet. Texas is barely even in the conversation except with 1 or 2 of the lower rated ones.
A&M already has Nick Harvey and Cedric Collins.

A&M and LSU are literally going to own the Texas DB crop in 2014.
The top three are Paris, Harvey and Brown. All are national top-30 players. Harvey is committed to A&M, Paris is 95% LSU and Brown is 70/30 LSU/A&M now that his sister committed to the Tigers.
After that, the next tier is Hardeman (LSU), Johnson (Stiff-arming OU and Texas waiting for an A&M offer), Collins (A&M) and Watkins (likely A&M).
Texas could realistically produce seven national top 100 DB prospects this year and all will end up at A&M or LSU most likely. Texas gets our scraps.

I think we get Adams, but after that I have no idea. You'd think DB would be the one position that we could actually recruit well in, given Akina's pedigree. But I'm pretty pessimistic at this point.

Georgia offered Nick Watkins. Doubt we get him. Georgia never really recruits much in Texas

What's the status of Hardeman's LSU commitment? Will LSU take him? 247 still doesn't list him as a commit.
