BREAKING: Cy Falls' Burns heading West
It’s July 1st. With that comes the end of official visit season (June) and the beginning of commitment season as many Top 2025 recruits look to lock in their future homes before their senior year.
Today, Cy Falls' LB Kaleb Burns started off the commitment season with a bang announcing his decision.
“Texas Tech was the first school to ever offer me,” Burns said. “The relationship I have built with Coach Bookbinder, Coach DeRuyter and Coach McGuire has been the biggest thing. They have been on me since the jump and I know they can develop me as a player and man there.”
The 3-star linebacker committed to Texas Tech over SMU and Baylor.
“I’m excited to see the new jerseys, excited for to start my new path and excited to be a Red Raider!," he said. "Their plan for me is to play me at the "Will" position, which will allow me to make a lot of plays for the defense. They were comparing me to Terrell Bernard, which I think is a great comparison, so I’m excited for their development plan for me.”
Burns chose the Red Raiders over fellow in-state school’s Baylor and SMU, which was a point of emphasis for him being able to play in Texas.
“It means a lot to stay in state," he said. "Being able to still move around and stay in Texas was a big deal for me.”
Now committed, Burns is excited for a big senior year wearing the green and gold for the last time.
“I’m looking to go back-to-back winning Defensive MVP," he said. "We want to come into the new district and win it, before making a deep playoff run. I’m locked in ready for one last year with my teammates.”
The Red Raiders are getting a good one in Burns, who is excited to head to Lubbock to continue his playing career.
BREAKING: Cy Fair DL and Under Armour All-American commits to Texas A&M
From the maroon and white, to the maroon and white.
Cy Fair defensive lineman Landon Rink decided to shut his recruitment down today and committed to Texas A&M.
The 4-star Bobcat committed to the Aggies over Ohio State and Oklahoma Wednesday. So, what was it that helped the Aggies earn Rink's commitment?
“Every time I went up there, it was like one big family. They already treated me like family, even though I wasn’t there,” Rink said. “I love Coach (Sean) Spence, Coach Tony (Jerod-Eddie), Coach (Jay) Bateman and Coach (Mike) Elko. They’re all coaches I want to play for, and I’m going to put everything I have on the field for them.”
The Aggies are under a new regime under new coach Mike Elko, who has brought an intense culture to the Aggie football program and Rink is excited for it.
“Coach Elko is bringing in a great attitude and culture to the program," he said. "Once they get that attitude that he’s trying to get there, there is no one who can stop them.”
Elko brought in DL coach Sean Spence, who has had NFL coaching experience, which really meant a lot to Rink.
“Coach Spence has coached so many NFL guys, so the development is obviously there,” he said. “Their defense fits me perfectly and they want me to play the 3-technique and big end, which I’m excited about.”
Now committed, the future Aggie plans on focusing on a big senior year aiming to get 20 sacks while playing for his Dad who is on the staff for the Bobcats.
“It’s pretty awesome to be able to play for my Dad and have him by my side,” he said. “He’s been coaching me up since I was young, helping me get to where I am today. I’m ready to enjoy my senior year with him.”
The path for the Under Armour All-American is paved maroon and white all the way down Highway 249 to College Station.
