    The Texas Longhorns weekend featuring top offensive targets in the 2025 class is April 6th and 7th. There are already two key offensive line visitors confirmed, and now one of the nations fastest prospects in the cycle will be back in Austin.
    Hitchcock (Texas) High speedy playmaker Kelshaun Johnson (5-11, 165) told OnTexasFootball Wednesday night that he will be back in Austin April 6th. Johnson, considered a Texas lean over Texas A&M, Penn State and USC, attended Texas Junior Day January 20. 
    Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian and area recruiter Blake Gideon made a stop at Hitchcock High January 18 prior to the Junior day visit. 
    The Longhorns offered Johnson June 11, 2023 after a standout camp performance. Sarkisian, Gideon and Chris Jackson have remained in constant contact since that time. 
    Johnson attended Texas A&M Junior Day January 27, and was very impressed with wide receivers coach Holmon Wiggins.

    One of the top defensive targets for the Texas Longhorns in the 2025 class is returning to Austin in April.
    McKinney (Texas) High linebacker Riley Pettijohn tells OnTexasFootball that he will make an unofficial visit for the Texas Spring Game April 20. 
    That will be the last of five spring visits for the 6-2, 210 pound defender out of the DFW area. 
    Pettijohn will visit Florida State March 23, Ohio State March 30, USC April 6, Texas A&M April 13 prior to Texas April 20.
    Headed into January, Texas and Florida State were the two schools mentioned first and second according to a source close to the recruitment. USC was the third. A January 27 Junior Day visit to Texas A&M moved the Aggies into the top group. Ohio State's Ryan Day visited McKinney High the same day in January as Steve Sarkisian. 
    OnTexasFootball continues to hear the Longhorns are in a very good position headed into the spring visits.
