The moral, political and PR implications of the Baylor situation have been discussed at length in other threads but let's be honest, this is a football recruiting site and we all want to know, how will the recent fall out at Baylor affect the recruiting landscape for the Longhorns?

- Kedrick James, a 4 star TE, has already decommited from BU. Texas had offered him and only has a tenuous commit from Major Tennison. Do they get back into the mix with James at this point?


- What about Hezekiah Jones? He hasn't commented on the situation yet and I'm not sure if he strongly considered UT prior to his Baylor commit. Will Texas pursue this top flight WR or just keep on their current targets?

- In terms of other 2017 recruits, this certainly has to make Texas (and any other school) look that much more appealing than Baylor. What Baylor/UT head to head battles may be decided by this controversy?

- Any current players that may look to transfer to Texas? Patrick Hudson comes to mind, on the fence prior to committing last year, and would have 4 years of eligibility if released from LOI as reported.
