The Longhorns will get their opportunity to make more inroads with the LSU commit on June 16-18. Texas, along with others like Florida, USC, Louisville, and UCF, are still strongly recruiting the former Grayson (Ga.) standout.

Stone took an unofficial visit to Texas earlier this year.

On3 Scouting Summary

Versatile athlete who plays a number of positions for perennial Georgia power, Grayson High. Plays quarterback, running back and wide receiver at Grayson. Shows good agility and adequate play speed with the ball in his hands. Has worked out as a wide receiver on the camp circuit, but could also project as a defensive back at the next level. Shows a good feel for working in space as a ball carrier. Has grown over an inch since his sophomore year, now checking in around 5-foot-10.5, 180 pounds. Does not have many athletic testing numbers to speak of, and ran track as a sophomore with a personal best of 11.70 seconds in the 100 meters. Has some genuine positional ambiguity that should be hammered out moving forward.
