Wednesday 12:40 p.m. update - Adding another big official visitor for the weekend of December 14.
I'm told JUCO OL Myron Cunningham will take a Texas official visit that weekend. Cunningham has already visited Oklahoma and is supposed to be at Arkansas this weekend. Tom Herman was in Iowa on Sunday to see the Iowa Central Community College prospect.

--- I exchanged a few texts late last night with Texas linebacker target Caleb Johnson, who took his Oregon official visit last week and had an visit from Texas yesterday.
Johnson said his Oregon visit was "really good" and he can definitely see himself living there. He also raved about the Oregon facilities.
Texas, Colorado and Arkansas did visits with him this week. Oregon will go in on Wednesday.
Prior to the Oregon visit, Johnson told me Texas was still the team to beat. Now he tells me he's torn and trying to sort things out.
"I'd say no one is on top for sure right now," Johnson said.
The Fullerton Community College standout is hoping to have a final decision next week, so look for Texas (and Oregon) to go back in early next week for one more in-home visit.
--- I've mentioned this before but it's kind of flown under the radar. Baylor is expecting Texas commitment Peyton Powell on an official visit this weekend. Powell also told another Rivals reporter that he will be talking to the new Texas Tech staff soon. Situation worth monitoring.
--- One more name to remember ... Deondrick Glass. The Katy running back's father told another reporter (who relayed the info to me) that Texas was one of his top schools, along with Alabama and Oklahoma State (Glass himself did say a few days ago he was focused on Alabama, Oklahoma State, Ohio State and Miami). Glass told me this morning that he is expecting to receive an in-home from Texas but they haven't locked in a date yet.
Glass doesn't plan on signing until February, so it's possible Texas could try to get him in for a visit in January if the staff decides to push there. Obviously, guys like Noah Cain, Trey Sanders, D.J. Williams and JUCO RB Rhamondre Stevenson are still in play so we'll see where this one goes, but Texas does want a second back and Glass could be a guy to keep an eye on.
