Longview’s Zaycoven Henderson Receives Texas Junior Day Invitation

Already with an offer from one of the schools involved in the Red River Rivalry, Longview's Zaycoven Henderson heard from the other Wednesday.

The junior defensive tackle, who already received an offer and junior day invitation from Oklahoma, told ETSN.fm on Wednesday morning that he has also received a junior day invitation from Texas (Feb. 23).

Henderson has become a hot commodity on the recruiting trail following his Next Level Athlete Texas Top 100 Defensive Line MVP performance in Pasadena on Jan. 20.

The 6-foot-2, 290-pounder had 48 tackles, 10 for loss, and two sacks as Longview finished 9-4 with a Class 5A Division II Region II semifinal appearance in 2012. Classmate and teammate Dorian Leonard, a 6-foot-4, 200-pound receiver, also received an offer from Oklahoma recently.

That duo joins fellow 2014 Longview players Stephan Maxey (safety) and Travin Howard (safety) with Oklahoma junior day invitations (Feb. 2).
