Longhorns offer talented offensive lineman Peyton Miller
Longhorns offer talented offensive lineman Peyton Miller Longhorns enter the mix for Peyton Miller
The Texas Longhorns have been busy connecting with recruits in the 2027 class over the last few weeks. That continued on Sunday when they offered Texas native Peyton Miller. The talented offensive lineman is ranked as the 14th-best player at his position in his class. While the Longhorns have made their interest clear, they are not the only program pursuing Miller.
Their competition includes Arizona, Arizona State, Arkansas, Baylor, and Duke, according to 247Sports. While the Longhorns have a few teams to beat out, they have gotten to know Miller personally during the recruiting process. Their offer came after he attended the Longhorns Elite Camp in Austin on Sunday.
Over the last two years, Miller has made headlines while playing for Anna High School. That is partly why he has been on the Longhorns radar. The next step will be to get him to campus for an official visit. Although Miller has a few options to consider, he was excited to receive an offer from the Longhorns.
Miller said in a post on his X account, "I'm excited to announce another Div. 1 football scholarship offer from Texas Football. He also thanked Steve Sarkisian and offensive coordinator Kyle Flood.
As the recruiting process continues, Miller will be a player to watch. He has the potential to be a very good player with plenty of room to grow. If Miller chooses Texas, he will join a program that has become one of the best in the country.
So far, the Longhorns 2027 class has only one commit. However, there is still plenty of talent on the board, and it is early in the process. The Longhorns hope that Miller's recruitment ends with him in a Texas uniform.

Chapel's laser focus
SIOUX FALLS, SD (KELO) — A century-old chapel in the heart of Sioux Falls has been posing for its close-up. A drone, equipped with remote sensing equipment, has performed a flyover of the Glidden Memorial Chapel, located in Mount Pleasant Cemetery. Former mayor back in court for triple homicide The technology, called LiDAR, uses light and radar to map out every inch of the building, inside and out. It's the first phase of what will be an extensive makeover of the historic building. The chapel also shares a technological tie to the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris. This is a virtual blueprint of the 101-year-old Glidden Memorial Chapel. 'It gives you dimensions, it gives you space, you can ask the machine to take you upstairs or onto the next side to go 50-feet above and see what it's like from that view,' Doug Pederson of Pederson Contracting Corporation said. This 3-D imaging of the chapel contains millions of points that provide architects with precise 3-D measurements of the building. '4.947 feet from the bottom of that stone to the grade where the stone meets to the underside of that sandstone,' Schemmer Associates Senior Architect Robin Miller said. There's a learning curve to this new technology, behind every corner and every wall. 'The first time we used this technology, we were trying to show-off how good we were at it. And one of our operators got lost in the middle of a wall and couldn't figure out how to get out,' Miller said. Mount Pleasant Cemetery will use the data collected to begin a major restoration of the chapel. Moisture through the decades has weakened the chapel's floor to the extent that no one is allowed inside. The floor will eventually have to be replaced, as part of upgrades to this longtime landmark. 'When people ask me where's Mount Pleasant, I say, well, it's the chapel on 12th Street. Everybody knows this chapel. They didn't know what was Mount Pleasant, but they know the chapel,' Mount Pleasant Cemetery Association President Fred Gage said. The imaging will be a big time-saver in preparing the chapel for renovations. 'If you think about it, instead of having two guys in there with a tape measure moving a ladder around for eight hours, we came in with a drone for a couple hours and got better measurements than we would have ever got,' Mount Pleasant Cemetery Manager Matt Gage said. A hand-held camera took images of the chapel's interior, including the basement, where bodies used to be stored. 'And you can see right here was the opening, so they could have a casket down below and raise it into the opening of the floor above,' Miller said. Measurements provided by the imaging will also provide key data for a planned expansion of the chapel. 'If we put on an addition, for example, we want to make sure it's compatible with the building. We don't want to have it necessarily compete with the building, because you can't duplicate this. But you can make it something compatible and make it more functional,' Pederson said. This type of laser scanning was used to create a virtual model of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris after it was heavily damaged by fire in 2019. 'I saw a thing actually on CBS This Morning about how they had used LiDAR after the fire to find all the measurements of the things that were unsafe and they couldn't get to and all that stuff, and then they were able to re-create places that things were missing so they could bring it back to what it was,' Matt Gage said. The chapel is on the National Historic Register, so any upgrades will have to maintain its historical significance. 'As we refurbish this building and bring it to usable use, there are quite a few code conditions that were not in place at the time the building was constructed,' Miller said. With much of the preliminary, technical work now wrapping up, the actual refurbishing of the chapel can't get underway until the cemetery collects more donations from the public. 'And we've got to go step-by-step and basically we have to fund the project as we proceed, so that's very important,' Pederson said. Actual construction could still be months away, depending on how much money the cemetery raises. An ambitious project to preserve Sioux Falls' past, while remaining laser-focused on the future. 'This building was probably built by people who were born in the 1800s. And what they accomplished is nothing short of amazing and it amazes us to this day,' Pederson said. The cemetery hopes to hold not only funerals, but weddings in the chapel, once it's fully restored. Matt Gage says he's also fielded questions from churches that want to hold Sunday services there.

Texas' Reese Atwood swings at NiJaree Canady walk attempt, scores go-ahead WCWS runs
Texas softball's Reese Atwood pulled a Miguel Cabrera in the 2025 Women's College World Series. The Longhorns catcher was in the process of being intentionally walked by Texas Tech ace NiJaree Canady in Game 1 of the championship series, with Texas trailing 1-0 at Devon Park in Oklahoma City. Instead, a 3-0 pitch by Canady caught too much of the plate and Atwood drove a single to right field to plate a pair of runs. Advertisement REQUIRED READING: Texas vs Texas Tech softball live updates: WCWS finals Game 1 score, highlights The Longhorns took a 2-1 lead over the Red Raiders in the bottom of the sixth inning as a result of Atwood's heroics. For Atwood, it was a bit of redemption. She had appeared to catch Logan Halleman stealing second base in the fifth inning, but Leighann Goode was called for obstruction and Halleman was awarded second base. Mihyia Davis drove in the go-ahead run one batter later. This article originally appeared on USA TODAY: Texas' Reese Atwood swings at walk attempt, scores go-ahead WCWS runs
