This is what was said in the story:

"Former Jenks football player and University of Texas signee Reese Leitao was arrested at Jenks High School Tuesday on possession and delivery of a controlled dangerous substance with intent to sell within a thousand feet of a school.

"According to the Jenks campus police report, Leitao had 20 Xanax pills and more than $1,300 on him. According to the report, Leitao admitted to a Jenks administrator he was selling the Xanax."

Here is the press relase from UT:

"We're aware of the situation involving our signee, Reese Leitao. We're collecting information, will talk to Reese and his family, let the legal system run its course and then address it further at the appropriate time."

Laeitao was expected to compete for playing tight right away as a freshman. Cade Brewer was the other tight end signed in the 2017 class.

"And then I think Reese Leitao, there's a guy that was committed to Nebraska," Texas football coach Tom Herman said on signing day. "They know a thing or two about recruiting tight ends. And we're excited about both those guys. Because the tight ends in this offense is very, very critical."
