Recruiting

If Texas does not get atleast 2 more interior D Line, 1 more LB, and 2 more CBs, can this recruiting class be considered a success?  There are still some very large holes in this class IMO that need to be filled.

If we get four 5 stars in the next few weeks as we may well do, I would consider it a success.

I understand wanting 5 star  recruits, but if we do not aquire the needed positions all the stars in the world won't complete the team.  It's usually the not so sexy players that are the difference.

If we pull in lots of offensive 5 stars, with mediocre IDL recruiting, isn't that what ou was under Riley? All offense, and couldn't stop anyone on D.

Need to fill needs on DL and DB. Texas did that at DB during the season in the 2024 class

but on the DL … the 2025 class is really more so Texas doesn’t have to be portal dependent after the 2025 season IMO
