He’s not committed. It’s a recruiting edit sent to him showing a commitment to Texas as a box that remains to be checked.

No I believe it was just a graphic sent to him listing all of his accomplishments with one more box to check.
No it’s like an unchecked box. Just saying that he’s done everything but commit. I was confused too
Per EJ @ 247
— I switched my Crystal Ball pick from Texas to Texas A&M for four-star cornerback Marcus Banks. This one was a little strange — something that seems to be a constant theme with in-state recruiting this year. UT cornerbacks coach Jason Washington has been working on this recruitment for more than a year, and there isn’t really anything he could have done differently, especially considering the fact that we expected him to commit to Texas in March before he pushed things back. I’ve heard that A&M really made an impression on Banks and his mother, who is playing a huge factor in his recruitment, on their recent official visit. A summer official visit to Texas could turn the tide, but nothing has been set at this time. Washington will see Banks on Friday and is going to continue working on him.
— If Banks does end up siding with Texas A&M, two in-state cornerbacks to know are Oregon commit Marques Caldwell and fast-rising Fort Bend Hightower product Isaiah Essissima. Caldwell visited Texas for junior day and has high interest in the program. If the Longhorns were to offer, they would be in a prime position to flip him. Essissima is an intriguing prospect and has blown up with P5 offers this spring. Washington will also see both on Friday.
— Texas defensive line coach Oscar Giles stopped by Fort Worth Nolan Catholic to see four-star defensive end/outside linebacker NaNa Osafo-Mensah. So where do things stand heading into his weekend decision? While Osafo-Mensah said some great things in the interview our Mike Roach had on the site, we are continuing to hear from those around him that Notre Dame holds the edge. I have my Crystal Ball on the Fighting Irish and am sticking with that pick right now.
— There have been some questions about some grad transfers along the offensive line. I have checked in with a source, and yes, Texas is evaluating some grad transfers up front. While there is nothing substantial to report at this time, don’t be surprised if one or two of the guys remaining on the market turn into real targets.
*I wouldn't worry about Banks... not impressed by him, and that probably means the staff has other CB's likely OOS higher on the board than him and they must feel we are in a good position with them.

does anybody else read the names of these kids in craig way's voice to see if it just makes sense that they end up with us? like essissima just sounds like a craig way call.
...no?... yeah me either
...no?... yeah me either
What? Kids who have no interest in A&M suddenly committing to them on their first visit out of the blue? Nah, nothing to see here.

Per TFB:
– The most recent commit (which was the latest shh) is a 2020 player. However, he may not be all the big news this week. There is a possibility Texas could be in store for more good news this week and if things go according to plan it’ll go public this week, as well.
***My guess Mookie Cooper (WR from MO) or Hudson Card (ATH/QB/WR from Lake Travis)
Another "Shh" and now I've lost count, this maybe the 4th now over the past week?
Some rumors that it's Tyler Johnson 5* OL
Supposedly it's going to be a good weekend and a few of these "Shh" may go public.
Work with Wiley’s mom. Pretty positive he will commit to the good guys tomorrow.
So nobody has brought up that Tyler Johnson and Hudson Card has committed to us?

Hey guys I think Hudson Card and Tyler Johnson just committed to us
On film,they look like very good players.Texas really needed a 5-star OL.Hook EM
If the horns can reel in 8-10 wins this year they will have the #1 recruiting class in the country imo. Might do it even without winning but on field results will seal it in my opinion.
Old news but I was out of pocket all weekend, this one is huge!
Again old news, but worth a post. Kid is a solid TE 2 take, and has freaky athleticism. (Plays QB for temple hs)
