Top LB Recruit Anthony Hill Has 'Really Good' Relationship With Longhorns
The Texas Longhorns' plan to round up future defensive talent is well underway. Coach Steve Sarkisian and Co. have already received two commitments for 2023 and are looking to add a third.
Denton Ryan (Denton, TX) linebacker Anthony Hill is one of the most highly regarded defensive players in the country and has his sights set on Texas. He spoke about his relationship with the Longhorns on Saturday at Battle7 in Dallas.

“Oh it’s really good," Hill said. "I feel like I talked to them a lot. It’s been really cool. I just feel like a guy coming in maybe like day one, day two just being able to do good in their scheme and system."
Hill is the top linebacker prospect in the state of Texas and quite possibly in the entire country, and his relationship with Arch Manning, Johntay Cook, and Rueben Owens, three of Texas' top targets, should not be discounted either.

Still, Texas will have to watch out for rival Oklahoma and new head coach Brent Venables in the hunt for Hill. Venables was one of the top defensive coordinators in the country at Clemson over the past few seasons.
“I feel like that’s really big," Hill said. "A lot of defensive players (Venables) has been putting into the league the last couple of years."
The Longhorns' chances of landing Hill are alive and well, with more work on the recruiting left to be done.
