National Signing Day Show to be Streamed
Fox Sports Southwest will be streaming their national signing day show here at 6 PM central time.
Not many surprises on signing day, with the notable exception of Dallas Skyline all-state linebacker Corey Nelson, who switched his commitment to Oklahoma after originally stating he was bound for Texas A&M.

Realignment & Signing Day
The 2010-11 realignment didn't seem to produce many surprises this year. Mostly it seemed to be a time of returning to the past, including, but not limited to the return of Abilene to the "Little SWC" out west and Longview rejoining class 5A.
Longview will be welcomed back to 5A with one of the toughest non-district schedules in the state as they travel to Allen and Lufkin, before hosting Abilene.
One of the best matchups forthcoming in 2010 will be a tilt between defending class 4A champs Lake Travis and Aledo at a location to be determined. It will be a home and home series the next two years.
Also, former class 2A schools, Aubrey and Pilot Point, who had outstanding 2009 seasons (Pilot Point garnered a state title), will move up to class 3A and join each other in district 9-3A.
On the heels of realignment comes national signing day tomorrow, with the Texas Longhorns scheduled to sign one of the most highly touted classes in school history. The late commitment of Plano West DE Jackson Jeffcoat put the cherry on an outstanding group that features a strong core of wide receivers and the second leading rusher in Texas high school football history in Cayuga's Traylon Shead.
And don't look now, but the Texas A&M Aggies have lined up a class considered top ten material by most analysts. The men in maroon appear to be on the rise.

U.S. Army All-American Bowl
The U.S. Army All-American Bowl, played in San Antonio, will be televised on NBC at noon today. The state's top recruit, DE Jackson Jeffcoat from Plano West, will not play today due to a sprained ankle.
As usual, some recruits will announce their college intentions, but don't expect a commitment announcement from Jeffcoat, who stated he is still in the process of deliberation.
