OTF Premium WR recruiting... | Friday, 11:40 a.m.

[Hank South]

We're roughly three weeks removed from Easton Royal flipping from Texas to Florida, and the Longhorns remain on the hunt for one more high school wideout -- if it's the right fit. 

The three names to know right now: 

Ja'Hyde Brown, 4-star WR, Louisville Christian Academy (Louisville, Ky.) -- Louisville commit 

Texas and Brown are in close communication. Oklahoma is also interested. If he flips to either the Longhorns or the Sooners, it will be for less money than the Cardinals are expected to pay. And at least in Texas' case, there's a steeper barrier to entry for early playing time. 

Ronnie Gomiller, 4-star WR, East St. Louis (East St. Louis, Ill.) -- Cincinnati commit 

Gomiller officially visited Texas last weekend for the Ole Miss game. He earned an offer from the UT staff earlier this fall. He's currently committed to Cincy. OTF reported on Sunday that buzz was favorable towards Texas. Now comes the timing. If Gomiller takes his decision to signing day in December, there's not likely going to be a spot for him in Austin. If he decides sooner, that's a different story. Gomiller looks like the likeliest addition at this point in time.  

Jacob Thomas, 3-star WR, Miami Senior (Miami, Fla.) -- Pitt commit 

Thomas will unofficially visit Texas this weekend. He does not hold an offer from the Longhorns to this point. Could that change? Yes, but it would likely take further evaluation by the Longhorns staff.

My uneducated vote is to offer and recruit the 10.3 kid out of florida HARD. This offense is pretty devoid of legit speed and space guys at wide receiver. Way too many big possession receivers with just enough speed.

More Xavier Worthy style WRs! (yes I know he’s insanely fast and rare)

Why would Brown be considering OU? Playing time?

Huh?

[HonkEm]

If there's one thing the last couple seasons have taught me, it's that college football can never have too much speed. Size is great. Route running is great. But when a guy can erase an angle, suddenly the entire field opens up.

Nothing stresses a defense quite like a receiver who turns a good play into six points because everybody underestimated his speed. You can scheme a lot of things. You can't scheme catching somebody who is already gone. 🤘🏻
