Furr ready to visit the Cowboys

LeRon Furr is a three-star linebacker recruit from the Peach State. Furr, 6-3 and 225 pounds, plays for Columbus (Ga.) Carver High School and they have a bye week this weekend. With the free weekend ahead Furr has decided to make his first official visit.

"I am visiting Oklahoma State," Furr said. "I have heard so much about the team and facilities. I am really looking forward to visit."

Furr, who plays alongside Jarvis Jones, has multiple offers at this time but three teams stand out – Oklahoma State, Duke and Arkansas.

"I am pretty open with those three. I am going to see Oklahoma State this weekend. At Duke, I know they are short on linebackers and I really like coach (Ron) Middleton and coach (Jim) Collins. I also like the coaching staff at Arkansas. They are short on linebackers as well. That defense needs some help.

"Right now I think Oklahoma State is recruiting me the hardest."
