Texas Prospects React to Weekend Visit on Social Media

Over the weekend, recruits nationwide gathered in Austin, Texas to visit Steve Sarkisian and the Texas Longhorns.

Most notably, on Saturday the Longhorns picked up a commitment from elite 2022 defensive end Derrick Brown.

Equally important, Jaylon Guilbeau and Rueben Owens (both of whom de-committed) were back on campus on Saturday. Furthermore, Guilbeau was promoting himself and Bryce Anderson as a package deal. Anderson will decide between Texas and Texas A&M.

Now that Texas is joining the SEC, many of these uncommitted recruits may give the Longhorns a closer look.

Looking ahead, Texas will continue preparing for fall camp and the 2021 season. One key event to look for will be the quarterback competition between Casey Thompson and Hudson Card, which will ultimately be settled by Sarkisian.

Texas will open its season at home on September 4th against a dark horse Louisiana Lafayette football team.
