Armanti Foreman recruit updates: 2014 wide receiver

The twins long wanted to play together in college, but the odds of that happening looked as if they were diminishing in late May when the brothers held no offers from mutual schools. The recruitment of the 6’0, 220-pound D’Onta as a running back finally started to take off during the spring, though, as his offer list had long lagged behind that of his more highly-rated brother -- who plays wide receiver -- prior to that.

A strong performance at a Texas camp earned D’Onta an offer from the ‘Horns back in the middle of June, increasing speculation that the two had ended their respective recruitments in favor of Texas. However, it wasn’t quite that simple because head coach Mack Brown and his coaching staff wanted to take commitments from both players at the same time. This appeared to be a problem at the time because multiple reports indicated that D’Onta was ready to end his recruitment whereas his brother wanted to extend the process. Armanti made an early commitment to Oklahoma upon receiving his first offer from the Sooners, but that ended with a decommitment in early April as his own recruitment took off.

Armanti Foreman never made it to Norman.

Despite being committed to the Sooners since October of 2012, Foreman never made a trip up to Oklahoma to visit the school. He had, however, made multiple recent visits to Texas and Texas A&M, the two schools that are thought to be most heavily in the mix for Foreman.

One of the best prospects in Texas in this class has already committed. Armanti Foreman has already pulled the trigger on a verbal pledge to a college of his choice, but his recruitment is probably far from over.

Foreman hails from Texas City (Tex.) High School. He currently stands at 5’11 and weighs in at 175 pounds and is considered a consensus four-star wide receiver. 247 Sports has him ranked in the top 200 of their national recruits and a top 25 wide receiver and Texas prospect in this class. Rivals places Foreman in their top 250 and gives him a four-star ranking. Scout has him as the 35th best wide receiver and a three star rank overall, and ESPN has Foreman on their early Watchlist.
