Moderators Hank South Posted August 26 Moderators Posted August 26 A source close to the Ohio State commit Marcus Fakatou tells OTF that the five-star defensive lineman intends on visiting Texas for the Ohio State game on Sept. 12. This will mark Fakatou's second game visit at DKR after taking in Texas-Texas A&M last November. He returned in April and then again for an official visit in June. Recruit through the whistle... 41 3 Quote
Hornsdxx Posted August 26 Posted August 26 There was a video circulating recently where Fakatou was basically saying if he didn’t commit to Ohio state it would have been Georgia Quote

But if Texas wasn't second they were third, so not a huge drop off. He even admitted Texas wasn't in his top eight before the April visit, so they've made a big jump for him regardless over the last 4-5 months. 9 Quote
WRNC Posted August 26 Posted August 26 “Coach (Will) Muschamp and coach (LaAllan) Clark have kept contact with me since I committed. They haven’t broken it. Even though I’m committed, that shows a lot of love from their side so it’s only right I go show them love, too." https://www.elevenwarriors.com/skull-sessions/2026/08/163453/skull-session-ryan-day-shows-personality-at-monday-presser-marcus-fakatou-schedules-visit-for-ohio-state-texas-game 7 1 Quote
Wentwood Posted August 26 Posted August 26 We are playing the team he is committed too. That said, always like getting guys to Austin and the campus! 1 Quote
CageRader Posted August 26 Posted August 26 Gerry said earlier this should be viewed as a visit to watch Ohio State at this point. Never say never... 5 Quote
LonghornFan4Ever Posted August 26 Posted August 26 Hopefully he can bring DJ Jacobs with him too… Quote
BurntOrangeHorn Posted August 26 Posted August 26 Texas cannot flip him if he does not visit Texas again. There is a sequence to recruiting. 🤘🏻🤘🏼🤘🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿 Quote

BurntOrangeHorn Posted August 27 Posted August 27 His anOSU recruitment was at the Motel 6 level. Perhaps his eyes will open up this time. Baker and LaAllen Clark seem to have a channel with him. Will Muschamp turn it up?? 🤘🏻🤘🏼🤘🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿 Quote
Deep in the heart Posted August 27 Posted August 27 I've heard he is pretty solid with his commitment to Ohio St. Hopefully a win will open his eyes. Especially if Colin goes off. Quote
jcash02 Posted August 27 Posted August 27 An Ohio State commit attending an Ohio State game doesn't really move the needle. 4 Quote

If Texas was playing (insert school other than Ohio State) ... he wouldn't have interest in attending. Texas will continue to work to hang around the rim, however 1 Quote
