Notes and Nuggets from the Portal (Friday 9:20 AM)

A few nuggets to pass along:

***

Texas has been kicking the tires on former Arkansas LB Brad 'Greedy' Spence out of the transfer portal as of recently.

The former four-star linebacker from Klein Forest High School in Houston entered the portal earlier in the week and I have learned that the Longhorns could be looking at Spence as an option out of the portal.

Texas recruited Spence a good bit during the 2023 class, though never got to the point of an official visit. Spence should be on visit watch for the weekend from what I have gathered so far.

***

On the note of Texas adding a punter – Bobby Burton added the nugget this morning that Texas was able to get former P Michael Dickson on the phone yesterday with Utah portal P Jack Bouwmeester, a cool piece of recruiting behind the scenes.

I was told the visit went well on Saturday and that there is momentum here. I am hopeful to go fully in depth about the visit details, say... early afternoon today.

***

As our @Gerry Hamilton has reported earlier in the week, Texas is expecting a visit by Purdue portal DL Cole Brevard.

Brevard was at SMU on Thursday and made the trip down south for the Texas visit soon thereafter. The magic number remains 4 at the defensive line position, even with the pending return of DL Sydir Mitchell out of the portal I am told.

Texas will go big game hunting here, but Brevard is certainly a good start to begin the hunt.

Singleton is super duper fast and tough

the bigger version/nfl size of Silas Bolden 

Would they break the bank for Singleton? The report is that he’s seeking $2 million. That feels counter to Texas’s MO the last few years. Do they think he’s good enough to break their own rule?
