In a morning signing ceremony at his high school with family and friends in attendance, Torshiro Davis donned a white ball cap with a prominent, embroidered burnt orange HORNS and announced his commitment to Texas.
Defensive Line coach Bo Davis has been recruiting this highly ranked Shreveport recruit since he was at Alabama. Reports indicated that Torshiro's football coach texted Texas pay site information traders last night but requested secrecy on the pick. Some pay sites leaked the information that the signing day flip was possible.
In the end, Texas is able to shore up a defensive end position with much needed backup given the possible attrition schedule in upcoming seasons.
Congratulations to Torshiro Davis. T.G.O.D.
Hook 'em.

that we can call our future front seven The Seven Samurai?

Happier with Davis than DGB
Not that he is a better prospect – but he is a better fit for our team. We do not have an edge speed rusher in the underclass ranks. WR much less of a need with the RBs in the stable.

I remember
According to reports at the banquet, Toshiro seemed to be the most reserved and reports were that he was the least likely to sign with us. And now this. Excellent job by the coaching staff.

Have heard
that he is just a quiet guy by nature.

was it 1 week ago?
that Torshiro nixed the in-home with Texas? Now he is clad in burnt orange. Can not wait to hear what happened
codaxx - February 1, 2012
The coaches reportedly killed the in-home.
Perhaps trying to keep this under the radar.
By the way, Bill has a new thread up on the main page.

Didn't see this coming at all
Has Landon Collins signed yet? Louisianna’s top two prospects are both going elsewhere. Sucks for LSU but good for us.
