Four prospects to watch for after Texas’ big recruiting weekend

No team in the entire country is as hot as Texas is on the recruiting trail. Steve Sarkisian and his staff enjoyed one of the most successful recruiting weeks in recent memory.

The Longhorns’ class ranking is up 22 spots from No. 27 to No. 5 after landing seven commitments in the last few days. Five-star quarterback Arch Manning got the ball rolling with his surprise announcement on Thursday and the domino effect quickly followed.

Texas capped off the weekend by landing a whooping five prospects on Sunday afternoon alone. Kyle Flood pulled off a clean sweep with four offensive linemen joining the class.

The newfound momentum has no signs of slowing down anytime soon. Texas is picking up crystal ball projections left and right for many top prospects in the state of Texas.

Here is a look at four 2023 prospects to watch for that Texas is trending in the right direction for.
