Sunday evening quick hitters
- Baylor might not land Keondre Coburn, but they are in his head a little bit. They've done a great job earning the trust of the family. His dad is the one who set up the visit today. - Baylor sits in great position with 2019 DB Jeffery Carter. He's my bet as Baylor's next 2019 commitment. Holds Illinois, OSU, Oregon and Texas Tech offers.- 2018 LB Joseph Ogunbanjo is inching closer. He might need to bring his family back for a visit, but it's a matter of when and not if in my mind.
