    Texas wrapped up their Junior Day festivities a couple of hours ago, but there might be a few more fireworks left in the chamber. 
    I am told everyone who wagered on over 0.5 commitments to come out of this weekend will be walking to the ticket window here soon to cash that ticket.

    - As I posted in the “Afternoon Notes” thread, both Boobie Feaster and Byron Washington met with Coach Sarkisian after the junior day concluded. However, I have learned that 2025 safety Sael Reyes also had a one on one meeting with the coaches as well. 
    - Reyes is high on Texas and had a great visit today. I was told he can easily envision himself playing in Austin. He’s originally from Illinois. OU, Missouri, LSU and Texas A&M have all offered.
    - Feaster was told that Texas sees him as a Julio Jones clone and wants to use him the same way Jones was used at Alabama. 
    - Texas, along with LSU and Texas A&M, are standing out for the 2027 WR. The relationships he’s built with the Texas staff, along with the Horns’ electrifying offense, has really caught the attention of Feaster. 
    - It’s just a matter of time before Washington is a Longhorn from what I’ve been told.

    The 5th offer of the afternoon has been extended to 2025 Lake Travis DE Gus Cordova. Texas did not have to go far for this evaluation with the Lake Travis end coming down to campus for the Junior Day.
    If you want to talk about toughness, Cordova showed up to campus today in a t-shirt with the sub-30 degree temperatures pestering just about everyone else in attendance.
    Texas joins the mix for Cordova, who now holds 18 offers – including Oklahoma, Texas A&M, TCU and SMU.

    I checked in with a few prospects and parents after the junior day concluded today.  Here's the rundown:
    - After the day was over, certain players were asked to stay longer for some more personal time with the coaches.  For the most part, these were guys who either received offers or who already held offers.  
    - DeSoto duo Byron Washington and Ethan "Boobie" Feaster were two of those players.  Washington, the 2025 four-star OL, is all Texas at this point and when I asked if anyone else was standing out, he said "nope."  That should tell you everything you need to know.  As for 2027 WR Boobie Feaster, he personally met with Sark a bit ago.  Both he and Washington hung out in the player's lounge up until their meetings.
    - Shadow Creek linebacker commit Anthony "Deuce" Williams was an ace recruiter for the Longhorns today.  He worked on Colby Sellers, Jacorey Watson, Haydon Caston and Kade Phillips the most over the course of the day. Williams added that his commitment is stronger than ever, despite continuous interest from other schools.  Texas A&M, TCU, Baylor and Utah continue to push for him to visit, but I doubt that ever happens.
    -  Four-star CB Colby Sellers (Shadow Creek) visited with Sark on Friday at his school and again today on campus.  He just wrapped up a visit to Georgia last week and will now visit both Oklahoma and Texas A&M next.  He said that OU, Texas and Georgia are standing out the most, along with Texas A&M.  It's worth noting that he likes Sarkisian a lot.
    - IMG Academy four-star linebacker Gavin Nix was a surprise visitor on the day and Nix was already pumped to see Austin in person, as both Jordan Johnson-Reubell and Jerrick Gibson have been hyping up the Longhorns for months now.  Expect Nix to return to Austin in the future for a closer, more personal look.
    - Kiotti Armstrong (Jasper) is wide open at this point, but former teammate and Texas linebacker signee Tyanthony Smith is in his ear non-stop. He said the visit went really well and that the Longhorns will continue to get a look from one of the nation's top tight ends. Armstrong mentioned that his meeting with tight ends coach Jeff Banks went great.
    - Lago Vista's Swayde Griffin, the son of former Texas DB Cedric Griffin, met with Terry Joseph in depth.  He was one of the first few cornerbacks to meet with Joseph and I was told a very productive conversation took place.
    - Sachse 2026 WR Hekma Harrison II, who is the son of former Kansas State player Hekma Harrison, met with Tashard Choice on campus. Choice will be by in the spring to see Harrison. He will visit TCU in March.
    - Ed Small, the Texas baseball commit, was also in attendance today. Small is one heck of a prospect on the diamond, but told me he wants to focus on football going forward. He met with Director of Player Personnel Billy Glasscock and was told they will be visiting with him in the spring.  TCU is a school to watch here, however, as they want Small in both football and baseball.
    - One other important note... a few parents told me that the coach's energy and optimism about the future is unmatched by any other staff in the country.  "It's a good energy like we haven't seen anywhere else," said one parent.

    Michael Terry Jr. from San Antonio Alamo Heights was offered by Texas today. Terry, who plays quarterback in high school, is expected to be a receiver on the college level.
    Terry also has offers from Oregon, Nebraska, Oklahoma and TCU.
    Terry was one of four new scholarship offers on the day after more than 100 high school football prospects descended on the University of Texas football facility.
