Texas is no longer is in the running for Thornton - he's totally solid to LSU and won't take an OV to Texas.
I’m shutting things down. I haven’t really been talking with the Texas coaches lately, and I’m comfortable with everything with my commitment to LSU. Texas just wasn’t the school for me at the end of the day.
Honestly, I’m from Louisiana, so I’ve always wanted to go back home. Ever since I was a little kid, I dreamed of playing for LSU one day. When I got that opportunity, I took it. I listened to Texas because I loved it at one point, but LSU was always my dream school.
I would have loved to have had him in burnt orange - he'd have filled a beastly need for us.
