Friday Morning Recruiting Nuggets

OnTexasFootball gets your Friday morning started with some recruiting nuggets.

Kaliq Lockett, WR, Sachse (Texas) High
The OnTexasFootball 4-star wide receiver prospect is expected to make a visit to Texas this spring. He will make that visit with family members.

OnTexasFootball spoke with a source close to the recruitment Thursday. USC, LSU, Texas, Ohio State, Michigan and TCU were the schools mention most. Locket’s father is from Los Angeles, and his mother is from Louisiana. 

The Texas school visit was very impressive for Lockett. Steve Sarkisian left zero doubt that the 6-1, 180 pound smooth moving wide receiver is wanted by the Longhorns. 

OnTexasFootball believes the Longhorns have a legitimate shot in the race for Lockett, as of Thursday. That is despite Lockett not attending Junior Day January 20. A June official visit is also expected, as of Thursday. 

One more note on wide receiver recruiting
OnTexasFootball doesn’t expect Texas to make a push for Garden State 4-star Quincy Porter (Oradell, N.J./Bergen Catholic). 

If Texas signs an out of state receiver in the 2025 cycle, the Southeast Region or Southern California is where that would come from. And there is a chance that Texas only signs in state WR’s in this cycle because the crop is ultra talented inside the state line.

A new name to know
The Texas Longhorns extended an offer to Cedar Hill (Texas) High 2025 IOL Jordan Coleman November 3 of 2023. Texas offensive line coach Kyle Flood has been in contact since that time. 

OnTexasFootball believes the Longhorns could extend an offer to twin brother and IOL Devin Coleman (Cedar Hill, Texas/High) in the near future. Coleman, 6-4 and 315’ish, caught the eye of Texas and a number of others in January when coaching staffs stopped by the DFW 6A school. January offers for Devin Coleman were made by Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Colorado, Duke, Baylor, SMU, Tulsa and UTEP. Coleman is officially on offer watch. 

Jordan and Devin Coleman attended Texas Junior Day January 20. 

April 6 could be a big visit day 
OnTexasFootball 4-star IOL John Mills (San Francisco, Calif./St. Ignatius) will make an official visit to Texas June 14-16. Mills, 6-6, 325 pounds, is also expected to make an unofficial visit in the spring. April 6 is the date expected. The Longhorns continue to make a big push for Mills. 

OnTexasFootball 5-star OT Michael Fasusi (Lewisville, Texas/High) is also expected to make a one day visit this spring with his family. April 6 could be that date as well. #RecruitThroughTheWhistle

There is a national 7v7 tournament in Dallas the weekend of April 6-7, so a few skill kids could make their way to Austin April 5 as well. 

Spring visit list (many, many names will be added)

This is really for @taxsaverand the golf guys ... Coach Surratt's son, sophomore QB Jett Surratt, is truly about to blow up nationally on the golf scene ... this was at David Toms' facility Wednesday 

For those that aren't avid golfers ... ball speed at 198.7 as a 16 year old is truly otherworldly ... that's more juice that Rory McIlroy and the longest hitters on tour. Plus the 133 club head speed, and the 65's he's putting up on 7,100 yard courses ... bright bright future for a QB that also has P5 offers from Texas Tech and Houston with more to come.

Looks like he's never set foot in a weight room.

Why didn't you measure his hands?

Question Gerry….Let’s say a young man is 3rd or 4th on UT’s Board at a particular position and we’re only taking 2 at the position…. Do we tell him exactly where he stands and simply ask him to wait, or is the process more nuanced than that??

I can say that Sarkisian was very upfront with a WR's HS coaching staff in the 2025 cycle at a school stop in January.

Dakorien Moore is a #RecruitThroughTheWhistle until December. And guys like Kaliq Lockett and Kelshaun Johnson were very high on the board right after DKM.

The Coleman twins are interesting. Both have good feet. Jordan plays up and down the line and Devin is primarily OG and sometimes in an Agbo role of a jumbo package. Both tick the size box.

Edit: The Ramos kid has some great flexibility

I’m hoping for a secondary of Terry(he’s a DB for me and safety), Brew and Sellers. That would be a great start with additional corner pieces. Texas appears to have a legit shot too.

 

Love the news on in state receivers. Absolutely stay in state. Too much talent in this state is right. It’s what we do around here. The Hitchcock kid, Lockett, Marsh and of course Moore. That’s four big time talents right there. That’s just scratching the surface.

Agree on WR. Would take a Jamie Ffrench level dude to have real serious interest for OOS to truly factor in right now. Not ruling Marcus Harris out totally, to be clear.

I haven’t been real high on Harris other than keeping the Mater Dei pipeline. You can find him in Texas or one that’s very close.

I definitely think he should keep playing football because it helps his overall athleticism.  As Arnold Palmer said, learn to hit it far, then learn how to play golf.  

Young Surratt certainly hits it long already.  He's got a good swing already as well.  Or as another great player said...Johnny Miller..."any 'ol swing will do and then learn to chip and putt."

The football workouts will certainly help as long as he's doing calisthenics and martial arts as his base workouts.  Lifting weights IMO should be to SUPPLEMENT your workouts...weights should not be the ENTIRE workout.    

Good luck to the young man.

Gerry….is Andrew Marsh right there with that threesome or is he a tad farther down??
