Texas State picks up another transfer, but this time it's a big one from the Big 12.

 

Easy Anyama committed to Texas State for football back in 2012/2013, Anyama ultimately decided for track over football and signed with the Longhorns. He recently received his full release from Texas and will finish up his last class in Austin this week, before reporting to fall camp in San Marcos. 

Anyama, now checking in at 6-3, 206, has the size and speed to play multiple positions.  Coaches will be giving him a look at both OLB and safety.

Due to NCAA rules, he will sit out and redshirt this season, eligible in 2015 as a redshirt sophomore.

Here's what Eric Nahlin of Inside Texas had to say:

"To me this is a very big development. I like Anyama's film when he came out of Stafford and thought he was crazy for choosing track at Texas over football at TXST. I told him that then and I told him that five minutes ago.

Anyama is a bit of a rarity. If he was a more refined football player he'd be a high offer prospect. He has the two things every coach in the country is looking for; length and speed.

He tells me TXST wants him to play linebacker and at 206 pounds right now and with a year to gain weight, he's confident he'll add the 20-30 pounds necessary to man the position. Speed won't be a problem. Adding weight shouldn't be either. From a skill-set standpoint, Anyama will be one of the most gifted players on the team. I fully believe he could have contributed at Texas.

Leaving Texas won't be easy, but it won't be hard either. He tells me he was struggling to overcome nagging track type injuries and when you're hurt you're nonexistent to the coaches. "That's not the coaches fault, that's just the way it is. I wanted to go somewhere I could be more useful." Anyama picked up the phone and a door he once closed himself was gractiously opened by Franchione. He'll enroll in the fall and pay for his first semester and then go on scholarship in January.

Positive development to say the least."

Commitment #7 is in! 

Jacob Rowland 6'5" 297lb OL of Wills Point has chosen Texas State over Arkansas State and ULM.

 

Per Scout site:

"Around 6:30pm I made the call and talked to staff. I did it over the phone. I talked to the O-line Coach first and he handed the phone to Coach Fran. He asked me if I was ready to be a Bobcat and was very excited. He was glad they we're getting a chance to coach me. He was happy for me and glad that I'm joining the Bobcat family. He wants me to come down and take an official visit during the fall. I've been weighing the pros and cons of it, I just really knew it was yesterday that I really figured it out. It seemed like the best fit for me and I pulled the trigger today," said Rowland.

Commitment #8 is in

 

Aledo HS athlete Johnny Durham (6-0, 171)  confirmed last Wednesday that he has commited to Texas State.

He currently holds offers from Cornell, New Mexico, Ilinois State and SFA.  And it doesn't look like his offer count will stop. Texas Tech, Kansas State, Purdue, and Stanford are all showing interest in the Aledo defensive back.

 

He has been the #1 DB on the coaches board this year and the Bobcats hope they can hold onto him until that ink hits the paper on NSD.

 

"I really wanted to stay in Texas, and Texas State felt like the right fit for me and my family," said Durham. "A big factor in my decision was their commitment to me, when they told me that even if i got hurt in my senior season, they would not withdraw my offer."

Commitments #9 and #10

 

6'4" 240LB DE Dustin McWhorter of Graham HS and 6'1" 255LB DE Josh Uluocha of Stafford HS

 

Dustin says he will be shutting down his recruitment, and is 100 percent a Bobcat.  He chose Texas State over offers from Colorado State and North Texas.  And Josh had offers from Army and UTSA, with current interest from Rice, Houston, Texas A&M, Texas, Oklahoma, Texas Tech, Wake Forest, Purdue, and Baylor.

 

Per Dustin on his decision:

 

"The Coaches make it feel like home. They took me in and told me how much they wanted me to be a Bobcat," said McWhorter.

 

"Another thing was I was told that I had a good chance to be a starter as a Freshman, if I don't redshirt, but I want to earn my place and role on the team. I definitely don't like to sit on the sideline," said McWhorter.

"What really stands out about Texas State are the fans, they are energetic the whole game.  I'm considering Texas State heavily right now.  I'm just so familiar with the program." said Bullock.
