The delayed recruitment of Bryce Anderson has taken another step toward a commitment.
After originally saying he would shut it down on July 4, Anderson decided to push his decision back. Coming off an official visit to Texas the final weekend of June, the four-star defensive back seemed destined for an in-state battle.
On Sunday, Anderson announced that would be the case: Texas and Texas A&M are his final two schools. You can tell how important both head coaches are taking this recruitment, with Steve Sarkisian and Jimbo Fisher attempting to lock him down during the official visits.

No timeline has been given by Anderson. Trimming his list to two was the next step after removing LSU, Michigan and USC from his top five.
Texas brought Anderson and four-star cornerback commit Jaylon Guilbeau down for the same weekend. Texas ex Michael Huff was there to pose for a few photos as well. The full-court press was on; the Longhorns need a win over Texas A&M.
Anderson is one of the most important remaining targets on the board after Texas missed on Kelvin Banks. A top-50 prospect on the composite, Anderson is the No. 3 safety in the country.
