LB Jordan Hicks - Hicks is expected to announce Friday between Texas, Florida and Ohio State. The feeling here is that the Longhorns will come away with a big win. Florida is the biggest threat, but they fell off when Charlie Strong went to Louisville.

Uncommitted: Where will Jordan Hicks choose?
Thursday, January 28, 2010
By: Mitch Stephens

...
Texas (50 percent): Supposedly, Hicks has always dreamed of being a Longhorn. It?s hard to break those childhood wants. Texas rarely goes out of state, so Hicks certainly feels wanted and special there. He also has a special connection with defensive coordinator Will Muschamp, who has already been announced as Mack Brown?s successor whenever he leaves. As attractive as the other two-thirds of this triangle is, Texas, we believe, already has Hicks hooked.

Friday is big day for Longhorn recruiting
By Alan Trubow | Thursday, January 28, 2010, 03:20 PM

...
Lakota West (Ohio) linebacker Jordan Hicks is making his announcement at 11:30.
Both players are considered two of the top 50 players in the country by Rivals.com and Scout.com. And both players have had Texas at the top of their list of schools for a long time.

...
Hicks is choosing between Texas, Florida and Ohio State.

...
If we had to guess, we?d say Hicks will wear burnt orange and Jeffcoat will surprise the Longhorn faithful and choose Oklahoma.

Like James, he seems like he's looking for a reason to not go to OSU.

He's had his reason...he wasn't into OSU in the first place. Hicks has (as of late) been iffy between the final 3, but Texas has just been there the longest. Florida apparently just recently fell off, I would say if he happens to shock the world and not pick Texas, I would say it would be OSU. Oh well, we are more than fine at LB...a LB class of McVey and Turner, with possibly Durham and Hagan, is just dandy.

Jordan Hicks to make announcement today
January, 29, 2010 Jan 299:28AM ET
By Tim Griffin

Heralded linebacker Jordan Hicks of Lakota West High School in West Chester, Ohio, is expected to make his announcement later today on which scholarship offer he will accept.

Hicks will reveal his decision between Ohio State, Florida and Texas at his school at 1 p.m. ET. He is ranked as ESPNU's No. 4 prospect nationally.
It would mark the first time that Mack Brown has ever attracted a player out of Ohio and would be his biggest victory there since he upset Ohio State at Ohio Stadium early in the Longhorns' 2005 national championship run.

It will be hard to beat Jim Tressel and Ohio State for a top Ohio recruit -- and would be a rare occurrence during Tressel's recent coaching tenure with the Buckeyes.

Florida's influence in the recruiting battle has waned since Charlie Strong, who had been in charge of recruiting Hicks, accepted the head-coaching job at Louisville.

It will be an interesting announcement and one that potentially has huge ramifications for Texas and its defense. Attracting Hicks, who won the Dick Butkus Award, which is given to the nation's top high school linebacker, would be the biggest recruit for Texas so far.
