Is it not a bit arrogant to commit to a school that hasnt even offered you yet?

Why do you think that's arrogant? He's a Grey Shirt. He has offers from LSU, South Carolina and OU's Bobby Jack Wright is recruiting him. His Brother went to UT as well.

they had obviously discussed a greyshirt opportunity behind the scenes. i think it shows the kid's love and desire to play at UT that he would rather take a greyshirt over LSU, South Carolina, and Baylor offers.

great job by the staff by being diligent with this offer. now I expect Darius James to follow his good friend soon. :cool:

The Longhorns have received a pledge from Killeen Harker Heights outside linebacker Naashon Hughes, who has agreed to a greyshirt offer to become Texas’ 11th commitment for 2013.
Being a greyshirt means that Hughes can either enroll in the fall of 2013 as a non-scholarship player and be put on scholarship in the spring, or enroll in the spring of 2014 on full scholarship.

not sure when the espn list releases, but here is the 247 list. i respect these guys the most b/c they actually watch the players in person instead of just watching tape.

This is easily the best start UT has ever had in recruiting. Every player so far are big time future contributor types.

bobby burton at 247 thinks he might finish next season as the top player in the state.

Could be right. Darius James is a heck of a prospect.

Nothing is guaranteed but he has the kind of talent that would allow him to be considered. That, in and of itself, is very, very high praise.
