[Update]: This list will continue to grow and change over the coming days, so I'm going to go ahead and just update this post whenever a new name emerges. The most recent additions will be in bold. --Wescott
Even though the Longhorns aren't yet finished with 2012 recruiting with Dorial Green-Beckham and Mario Edwards still on board, as well as the decision still looming whether the staff wants to pursue a replacement in the class for the de-committed Thomas Johnson, the quick turnaround after Signing Day for the February 12th Junior Day means that the names are the prospects who will be attending the single biggest recruiting event for the 2013 class are starting to trickle out.
As usual, none of these players have been officially offered yet, but odds are high that nearly every one will receive an offer if they do indeed make it to campus. The question then becomes which of those players will commit during that weekend and if that number is closer to the four commitments secured last year or the 13 secured the year before.
