DEC 12 BURKS TO OU One of the Texas Longhorns’ top targets in the transfer portal is now heading to an arch-rival.

Former Purdue wide receiver transfer, Deion Burks, who was set to visit the Longhorns this week, committed to the Oklahoma Sooners on Tuesday, he announced on Twitter.

Burks has 47 catches for 629 yards and seven touchdowns with the Boilermakers in 2023.

DEC 10 BURKS VISITING According to a report from 247Sports, the Texas Longhorns are set to receive a visit from star Purdue transfer wide receiver, Deion Burks.

According to the report, the dates for the visit are still being determined, but he will make his way to Austin at some point during the week. Burks will also visit the Oklahoma Sooners in Norman next weekend.

One of the top receivers in the Big Ten while catching passes from former Longhorn Hudson Card Burks has 47 catches for 629 yards and seven touchdowns with the Boilermakers in 2023.

DEC 8 MUKUBA COMING TO ATX According to reports from On3, former Clemson Tigers safety Andrew Mukuba has set multiple visits after entering the NCAA Transfer Portal earlier this week.

And one of those visits is to the Texas Longhorns in Austin.

Mukuba, an Austin native, is the No. 1 ranked safety in the portal and was a key part of a Clemson that ranked No. 24 in the nation in scoring defense, No. 5 in pass defense, No. 27 in rush defense, and No. 7 in total defense.

Mukuba ranked third on that defense in tackles with 42, to go along with two tackles for loss, and six pass breakups.

Over the last three seasons, Mukuba has played in 35 games, making 143 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, one sack one interception, and 16 PBUs.

He has also scheduled visits to Ole Miss, Oregon, USC and Oklahoma – where his former defensive coordinator and lead recruiter, Brent Venables, is the head coach.

DEC 8 NEYOR TO PORTAL Per reports from On3, Texas Longhorns reserve wideout Isaiah Neyor has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal.

Neyor was once a highly-anticipated addition to the Longhorns roster after transferring from Wyoming, but after injuries derailed his first season in Austin, he was never able to find time in the receiver rotation.

DEC 7 TREY MOORE TO TEXAS? The Texas Longhorns have reportedly already been in contact with some elite receivers in the transfer portal, but what about on defense?

There’s been no reported contact just yet, but the Texas-sized buzz surrounding UTSA EDGE transfer Trey Moore has been something to watch after he entered the portal Tuesday. Now, recruiting analysts are making their crystal ball predictions, which is giving some life to the speculation of Moore joining Texas.

247 Sports recruiting analysts Jordan Scruggs and Hank South both submitted their official predictions for Moore on Thursday, saying that Texas will be his portal destination after a incredible individual season with the Roadrunners.

Moore posted 14 sacks during the regular season, the third-most in FBS. In 2022, he had eight sacks and two forced fumbles.

Should these predictions come true, Texas and coach Steve Sarkisian would be getting one of the country’s most promising pass-rushers.

DEC 7 TURNER-GOODEN TO PORTAL Texas Longhorns safety Larry Turner-Gooden intends to enter the transfer portal, per reports Thursday from On3.

A member of the 2022 recruiting class, Turner-Gooden appeared in four games last season, including in the Alamo Bowl against Washington. He posted two total tackles last year.

He will have three years of eligibility left.
