While the current focus in recruiting right now is on the 2016 class, Charlie Strong and his Texas staff are already building their 2017 haul with its latest in-state commitment.
Four-star wide receiver Damion Miller, who is currently ranked as the No. 41 receiver and the No. 246 overall player for the Class of 2017, committed to Texas on Thursday morning.
Miller's high school team, John Tyler High School in Tyler, Texas, announced the news on Twitter:
Miller is the first pickup of the 2017 class for Texas. He recorded 614 receiving yards and eight touchdowns as a sophomore for the Lions, who made it all the way to the Texas state semifinals last season.
