D'Vonta Hinton took an unofficial visit to Lubbock this weekend to take on the Spring Game.  Soon afterwards he would commit to the Raiders making him their 5th 2015 Commit.
 
Comments:
"I went to the spring game yesterday and they showed me a lot of love," Hinton said. "Even random people I didn't even know, everyone there was just really nice.

"After the game I talked to coach (Kliff) Kingsbury in his office and he said that they really liked me. He told me that I was the best inside linebacker they have seen on film and that I would be a perfect fit at Texas Tech."
 
"The coaches have always told me that they believe in me even though I'm a shorter linebacker," Hinton said. "Coach Kingsbury told me that other undersized guys like Zach Thomas and Wes Welker came to Tech when nobody else believed in them, now they are household names headed to the NFL Hall of Fame."
 
"They are building something special at Texas Tech," Hinton said. "I just feel comfortable there because a lot of the coaches actually played there and are younger. They have fun, listen to good music and I know you saw that dancing video the other day.

"It was a lot of people for a spring game too. The facilities and uniforms were sick. I got to meet Will Smith and the quarterback commit for my class (Jarrett Stidham), he had seen my highlights and told me, 'We need that!'"
 
"I met with some of the coaches this morning, then met individually with coach Curtis," Hinton said. "We sat down and talked for a little bit, then I told him that I wanted to commit. He was excited and we called Kingsbury to talk with him too.

"I'm ecstatic about my decision."

Texas State has offered Coperas Cove LB Jaylen Waters. The 6'1" 230lb LB timed at a 4.58 was offered at Texas States Jr Day a few weekends back. As a Jr he logged 102 tackles, 13 TFL's, 4 sacks & 4 forced fumbles. Texas State is his first offer but he reports he has interest from Baylor as well.

Thought this was pretty cool.  I would like to see one done for every one of 12 FBS teams in Texas and see how gameday atmosphere's compare; especially the P5 programs.

Per a Rivals Site former Longhorn players RB Jalen Overstreet and DB Chevoski Collins are both likely to enroll at Lamar.
 
 
Joe Bergeron's transfer has been discussed also but he was waiting to appeal Strong's decision before making the move.  Per Orangebloods.com, that appeal was denied at Texas last night and he is now seeking a new home.  West Texas A&M, Lamar, SFA and Sam Houston State are the schools being mentioned as a possible destinations.
 
 

It's called Sense of Entitlement, this is what clouds their potential.

Texas State has offered 6' 179LBS WR Peyton Hall of Brandeis HS in San Antonio. This 4.48 Speedster was extended an offer recently.  This guy is well below the radar and I have zero film on him.   Currently holds offers from both Texas State and UTSA
 

Per Scout Xaiver weighs in on his offer:
"They're my first offer. It puts a tender spot in your heart.... They have a beautiful campus and they run the same exact offense my high school runs. It's very nice."

Texas State could use a LB also
