    There will be some mid-week officials locked in for early/mid June. Texas is still pushing for two big weekends towards the back half of the month with the June 21-23 weekend being one of the big one.

    As y'all know, yesterday I took a quick trip to San Antonio to catch up with the country's top athlete – 2025 Alamo Heights ATH Michael Terry III.
    I dropped some quick tidbits yesterday on the trip, but wanted to go more in-depth from our conversation today. Terry is up to 19 offers now in his recruitment and the Longhorns are squarely in the fold after offering officially during the January 20 Junior Day.
    "It is a pretty fun process," Terry said of his recruitment. "Getting to meet all of the new coaches and seeing the facilities of where I could be playing. It is really cool."
    The nation's top athlete has been recruited all over the place on the offensive side of the ball. Many programs see him as a do-it-all catalyst, while others envision the 6-foot-3 playmaker as a wide receiver and others at running back. Texas has yet to pick a side on the argument and instead are wanting to get Terry to campus again before truly siding with a specific position.
    Luckily for the Longhorns, offering Terry on the Junior Day left a positive impression.
    "That was a pretty cool experience," Terry said. "We went to Coach Sark's office and we all talked together. It was a pretty cool experience getting (the offer) from him."
    Communication with the Texas staff bounces back and forth from Steve Sarkisian to Tashard Choice – it is worth mentioning that Tashard Choice was the first coach to extend an offer to Terry during his 8th grade season. Choice was still at Georgia Tech at the time.
    As for spring visits, Terry has the Nebraska spring game on April 27 circled as a visit he is hoping to get out to. Aside from that, no other trips have been locked in just yet.
    On the Texas Junior Day, Terry mentioned an unofficial top three of Texas, TCU and Texas Tech. Since then, other schools that have made a solid impression include Oregon, Nebraska and Texas A&M.
    Texas is hanging around this recruitment right now, though I would throw caution anyone into pencilling Terry into the class at the moment. I believe it is a pretty open recruitment, though the staffs that are able to pitch position specifics and usage plans will have an upper hand in my eyes.
    As we move forward, I would focus on Texas, TCU, Texas A&M out of the in-state schools. We will see if Terry gets up to Oregon, and I will follow up with how the Nebraska trip went.

    Four-star LB locks in Texas and USC official visits
    OnTexasFootball 4-star linebacker Riley Pettijohn (McKinney, Texas/High) has locked in two official visits in June, and Texas is one of the two. 
    Pettijohn, 6-2 and 215 pounds, told OnTexasFootball Wednesday night he is scheduled to make an official visit to Texas June 14-16. The official visit will be preceded by an unofficial visit for the Longhorns Spring Game April 20. 
    The two visits to Texas will add to a list of several, including January 20 Junior Day. Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian made a stop at McKinney High in late January as well. 
    The DFW are athletic and instinctive linebacker is also scheduled to make an official visit to USC June 20-22. 
    USC will also receive a spring unofficial visit, April 6. 
    Texas and USC are two of five spring unofficial visits. Pettijohn is scheduled to visit Florida State March 23, Ohio State March 30 and Texas A&M April 13.
