Texas TE still favoring Horns
Houston (Texas) Jersey Vilalge tight endGabe Ratcliff continues to favor the home state Horns.
"Recruiting has been going about the same as always," the 6-foot-3, 230-pound Ratcliff said. "It has been steady at least. I haven't had any new schools call for quite a while. I still have Texas the No. 1 team on my list."

"Those are the ones that have called recently," he said. "There were more that called earlier in the month too."
The No. 16 rated tight end has scholarship offers from Arizona, Colorado, Pittsburgh, Oklahoma State, Texas A&M and North Carolina.
"I have not lined up any visits yet," he said. "I am waiting until our season is over to line them up. I want to stay focused on our season."
Ratcliff has not been on any unofficial visits this fall, but he has taken in one game.
"I went to the Texas-Rice game in Houston on my own," he said. "But I wasn't there as a guest of either school."
