Thursday morning notes...
- As you know, Cam Jones of Mansfield has set up his official visit to Baylor for this weekend, joining Mansfield teammate Jackson Gleeson. Joey McGuire is the lead recruiter for Jones, but Jones also spent time with Fran Brown during an in-home visit recently. https://twitter.com/camgonework15/status/938621606225764357- Baylor had an in-home visit with Texas A&M DE commit Tyree Wilson after recently extending an offer. I'm not sure which coaches were in attendance, but word is that an official visit could happen. - Four-star WR Tommy Bush had an in-home visit with Fran Brown and Bob Bicknell Wednesday evening. "It went well. Coach Fran is very easy to talk with and Coach Bicknell really showed m how important my length would be in this pro-style offense. ... Really liked the pro style with the ability to adjust routes based on coverage." Bush is set to officially visit Georgia this weekend leaving him two official visits to take. - Baylor is now out of the mix for four-star DT Christian Barmore. Signs are pointing to him heading to Alabama, but the Baylor staff has cut communication and beginning to focus on other options. - Texas has pushed further away from Baylor commit Joshua Landry after a recent offer to Katy DL Moro Ojomo (6-3, 275). The Longhorns are now the favorites for Ojomo and that could mean good things for Baylor holding on to Landry. Texas has also extended offers to other DL recently. - Four-star WR Miles Battle got a Twitter follow from Baylor co-OC Jeff Nixon. I can't give you any specifics on this right now, but I can tell you that Baylor was very high on Battle prior to his commitment to Oregon. Battle recently decommitted from the Ducks.
