Bobby Burton Posted January 24, 2024 Share Posted January 24, 2024 Josh Gibson, the head coach of Texarkana Pleasant-Grove, tells On Texas Football that Lance Jackson, the 6-foot-6, 245-pound defensive end who committed to Texas on Sunday, is expected be a mid-term enrollee. In other words, if everything goes right, Jackson would join the Longhorns in January of 2025. View full news 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoHorns1 Posted January 24, 2024 Share Posted January 24, 2024 Appears that top recruits not being a early enrollee will be an expectation in the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted January 24, 2024 Share Posted January 24, 2024 We need to maintain a steady recruiting focus on Lance, he's in that northeast part of Texas where the communities in that area are HUGE fans of Arkansas. I was in Emory, Texas a few years ago for a fishing tournament at Lake Fork, and the night before the tournament, my buddies and I watched the Texas/ Arkansas game at a local sports bar where Casey Thompson and Company got torched by the Razorbacks. I could not believe the amount of Arkansas fans that were in that sports bar. (As far as sports bars go, the building was formally a small town Wal-Mart that had been converted into a sports bar and dance hall). 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Burton Posted January 24, 2024 Author Share Posted January 24, 2024 Arkansas used to be as big of a rival as anyone. Younger generation of Longhorns fans just don’t realize it because they never experienced it. I’m hoping that returns with the SEC and perhaps we can get a little something going with LSU, too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted January 24, 2024 Share Posted January 24, 2024 LSU definitely owes us a game in Baton Rouge after dodging our team in 2020 due to the covid pandemic. To march into Death Valley and get a win over the Bayou Bengals would be HUGE for Longhorn nation, as well as to further put the SEC on notice that this Sark era of Texas football is NOT the Tom Herman era or Charlie Strong era. Recruits would take notice as well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand LSU will be very vocal in their hatred for us from the start. Just remember all the BS when Orgeron lied about the A/C being broken and all their fake cramps. Louisiana is a one school state, and their fans are almost as methed up as Thooners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
