I was wondering that myself. Anyone have some insight? Seems like he must have family in Texas, or used to live here?

Sounds like a lot of guys are interested earlier than they have been in past years.
Keep it up, coaches!

Found a little more on the guy from Seattle:

Bankhead was All League, All Area and All State during his junior year and was All League and All Area during his sophomore year. He grabbed 71 solo tackles during this past season on one of the top programs in the Seattle area. Bankhead is physical, aggressive and has tremendous instincts. A definite D1 prospect.
