Early Monday Morning Post-Junior Day Notes & One Quick Team Note


Recommended Posts

  • Moderators

This will probably be the last of the junior day information you see from me, but wanted to share what I rounded up late last night/early today.

- This morning marks the start of winter workouts for the Longhorns. After about three weeks off, they're back in the saddle in preparation for the 2024 season.

- CJ Vogel spoke this weekend of how impressionable new Texas linebackers coach Johnny Nansen was this weekend and that he hit it of well with many recruits.  I also heard rave reviews on both wide recievers coach Chris Jackson and running backs coach Tashard Choice.  The two of them, along with Nansen, were mentioned as coaches who stood out the most and made parents feel really good about where the program is heading.

- Texas may have landed a 2026 RB in Aledo's Raycine Guillory over the weekend, but another name to keep an eye on at the position is Forney's Javian Osborne. Running backs coach Tashard Choice offered him nearly a year ago and the two spent an ample amount of time together this weekend in Austin for the junior day as well. Osborne, who already holds offers in the double digits, was already high on Texas and this past weekend has only helped their chances more.

- It's still very early in the process for 2026 CB Braylon Edwards (Wilmer-Hutchins), but he was on campus Saturday for the first time. He checked in at 5-foot-10, 185-pounds and caught the attention of cornerbacks coach Terry Joseph and safeties coach Blake Gideon and they told Edwards they could envision him playing either position. Edwards will visit Texas A&M this upcoming weekend, followed by LSU on February 3rd. One other thing worth noting in this recruitment is that Edwards is the cousin of Jordan Johnson-Reubell.  

-  Dallas Kimball's Kevin Jacobs is a 2025 defensive back, but he spent a lot of time with Tashard Choice as well.  One thing Jacobs noted is that he felt Texas did a phenomenal job of explaining their plan for the future, both on the field with their play and off the field with their recruiting.  Jacobs said that, without a doubt, he will be returning.

I think Choice doesn't necessarily think that way. He has guys he would take regardless, so they're not necessarily ordered. Ball is one of those.

Sounds like a first come first served. Get a spot while it’s available.

I was at the Baylor BB game and saw the recruits there as well as Sark. Stroke of genius as they all seemed to enjoy that! Yeah I was worried we might lay an egg, but they didn't ha! And Sark was there to support RT so awesome all the way around🤘
