With a sister and brother already at Houston, it may be tough to get this kid away from the Coogs.
But more importantly: 5' 11" 187 lbs .... as a LB/FB? Is this kid playing Pop Warner ball? Is he being moved to WR/CB?
Fox 7 - can you help us out with a little insight here?

Here's the story. He spent the spring running track as a sprinter and dropped down from his playing weight this past fall of 205. He's spending the summer doing the Adams Course so you can expect him to bulk up quite a bit before the season starts. We don't expect his weight to be a negative factor. Remember, he's just finishing up his junior season.
Frankly, DeMarreo is getting quite a bit of attention from schools as a fullback as well. His backfield mate, Quinton Smith, has had tons of schools checking out his tapes and the coaches keep remarking, "Who is that fullback opening all of those holes?"
