Texas linemen heading to West Texas
One of the stars of the Greater Houston Coaches Combine and one of the better offensive tackle prospects in Houston has made up his mind.
Houston Second Baptist offensive tackle/tight end Glen January, who is 6-foot-6 and 250 pounds, committed to Texas Tech on Friday.

The commitment comes as no suprise since January's father, Glen Sr., played at Tech in the mid-70s.
"It's like a dream come true," January said.
"I've wanted to go to Tech for a long, long time. So when the offer came on Thursday, we sat down and talked things over as a family. By the time we were done, it made sense - Texas Tech was also the place for me."
While January plays tight end in high school - his frame, 5.1 second time in the 40-yard dash and his 23-inch vertical make him a very solid tight end prospect.
January picked the Red Raiders over Texas A&M, TCU, SMU, Notre Dame and Rice.
