Big commitment for Texas Baseball.

Motley has a Perfect Game 10 rating on his prospect page, and was a standout to many during the 17U Perfect Game All-America Game in August up in Philadelphia. 

6-foot-5-inches tall and clocked a 6.8 in the 60m as well.

Left-handed stick that has a ton of raw power. Nice get for the Horns.

Seems like Schloss is still recruiting at a high level.  Maybe that Jack Marder he picked up from Oregon isn’t so bad. 😃 

We know the other coaches are top level. 
 

Maybe the sky isn’t falling after all 😃

Update on the 2028 class and their ranks in the Perfect Game Top 50:

#1 SS Theo Swafford (Sierra Canyon HS, CA)

#16 SS Jacob Welch (Lehi, Utah)

#26 OF Trendyn Motley (Huntersville, NC)

#40 RHP Chase Cotton (Whitney, CA)

 

That does not include 6-foot-10 LHP Colton Small, or either 6–5 RHPs Tommy Driver or Parker Klug.

Blake, 

First, thank you for the continued baseball coverage.   Second, can you give us a general breakdown on how we are doing recruiting wise & in particular vs the LSU’s, Ark, MSU’s, etc.  Also, what are the thoughts to date on the newcomers either portal or signees.   Did we do enough in the portal?     

Many thanks!

Per PG Texas has the #2 class for 27’.. 18 commits with 6 being in the High School top 100. LSU has the top class for 27’.  The 28’ Texas class is currently #5. It has 6 commits with 5 being in the top 100. Schloss, Marder, etc are recruiting at an elite level. 
 

For 28’ ATM currently has the #2 class with 10 commits (2 being top 100 in HS).. Cain hasn’t missed a beat unfortunately. Florida has the #1 class in 28’ but things are just started to heat up for everyone..

Legit pro prospect. It's a pretty swing, no doubt.

Yeah 2028 is just starting for Texas. They will continue to host prospects over the next couple of home games with several commitments still to come.
