’HORNS MAKE LATE ADDITION

It’s obviously quite late in the recruiting cycle for a program to add a freshman for the 2011-12 season, but Texas — which was hammered by NBA decisions made by Jordan Hamilton, Tristan Thompson and Cory Joseph — needed depth and added some by getting the nod from PA BF Jaylen Bond.

Previously a Pittsburgh signee, Bond and the Panthers parted ways this past spring and Bond was expected by many to attend prep school this season. Instead, however, the Longhorns swooped in and added an impressive athlete for the high-major level. Reports online were that Bond still is awaiting his formal release from Pitt, though that situation is expected to be resolved positively soon.
