HOUSTON - It has been a busy last month for Jordan Revels.
The North Shore defensive lineman had a receiving touchdown, six tackles, one forced fumble and earned 6A State Championship game Defensive MVP on December 22 to cap his senior campaign.
"Feels great knowing I left a legacy behind me," Revels said about leaving with a state title.
On Saturday, Revels picked his next stop giving new Texas State coach Jake Spavital a big get on the defensive side of the ball by verbally committing to the Bobcats.
"I've been having love for Texas State academically wise and I was very familiar with the new coaching staff," Revels said. "They came from Texas Tech, my teammates were committed to Texas Tech they always talked about how good the coaches where and things like that."

One of the main areas of improvement for the Texans this season, has been the running game with the addition of Joe Mixon.
Mixon rushed for 100 yards or more in 5 of his first 6 games with the team. But unfortunately for Houston, Mixon hasn't been nearly as effective recently.
When looking at his recent numbers, Mixon has failed to rush for more than 46 yards in 3 of his last 5 games. Posting only 26 rushing yards against Miami on Sunday.
With this in mind, is the state of Houston's run game a major concern, especially when the playoffs begin?
