"Right now," he said after watching Oklahoma dismantle Texas 55-17 at the Cotton Bowl Saturday," OU seems like it's the team for me."

"As a guest of Texas -- the designated home team at the Cotton Bowl"

"Amid a sea of burnt orange 11 rows up at the 30-yard line behind the Oklahoma bench, Edwards secretly rooted for the Soooners."

"Edwards said he wants to escape the shadow of his dad and "start my own trend."

I would be SURPRISED if he didn't end up with us. Who wouldn't wanted to play on that defense! BTW, Mr. Green-Beckham, who wouldn't want to play on that offense!

That official trip to Texas kinda backfired on them, huh?

He's a favorite to sign with us now, let's keep it that way. His next official trip to OU will be the A&M game, don't **** it up OU.

I imagine there's more riding on that game than just one recruit.

Just sayin'.

A little clarification. He is still verbally committed to FSU, but he is leaning toward Oklahoma.

http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/highschool/recruiting/os-recruiting-mario-edwards-not-decommitted-fsu-20111009,0,2688038.story

"The 6-foot-4, 275-pounder out of Denton (Texas) Ryan High, also, however, told the Sentinel that he is leaning toward Oklahoma."

"Right now OU is above FSU ... I'm VERBALLY committed to FSU, but I'm still open and looking," Edwards said."

"He said FSU's losing its past three games in a row have had somewhat of an impact on his thought process, but it's not the only reason he has backed off the Seminoles a bit.

"Yes that part of it," he said, "the 3 games they lost .. and I'm just trying to see where I fit in as far as defense and what's best for me and my family."

Just sayin'.I would bet, just a guess, that our biggest rivals for the most recruits, are lassie aggy and orange aggy.
