OTF reporting Texas is expected to seriously pursue five-star '26 OL/DL Lamar Brown of Baton Rouge, LA.

They believe he'll be recruited as a DL, and the staff will have a shot with a "big push" since he's currently not a lock to stay close to home.

Any rumblings on Madden Faraimo?

Status quo there.

It's Notre Dame, Texas and USC.

It's Notre Dame, Texas and USC.

USC back in the picture? Damn it.
Must mean the USC win against LSU demonstrated impressive defense which is fair. USC did look much better on D.
Gerry Hamilton did have this strictly as ND v. UT . Must have changed.

The second play from the highlights was awesome!
Look at his change of direction running down the QB! His foot work!
Even with a blocker who looked to be stuck in concrete.

On the last highlight play he did not even get blocked… not sure what that illustrates… staying home and enveloping?

'26 five-star S offer Zelus Hicks of Carrollton, GA tells 247 he's committing on Thursday.

Not expecting it to be Texas.

https://247sports.com/player/zelus-hicks-46138000/

IT commented on this tonight and the finalists are Auburn, Clemson, Georgia, Tennessee and Texas.

Their source says it's definitely not Georgia, and they're hearing some Texas talk.

One thing he told 247 after he visited campus earlier in the summer is that he has family in Dallas, and his parents want to move to Texas when he's in college no matter what university he signs with.

He said the Texas staff feels like they're very much in the race, and a source at Hicks' high school thinks it's at least 50/50 that he picks the Horns.

Burton of OTF on Texas' recruiting right now:

Just three weeks ago, Texas had solid recruiting momentum, the snowball was definitely rolling downhill but it wasn’t overwhelming.

But right now, I’m here to tell everyone that that snowball has become an absolute avalanche behind the scenes.

Recruits are calling Texas, including a couple of national prospects on no one’s radar. Recruits are initiating contact just as much as Texas is doing the same.

The conversations with previously targeted elite prospects, those committed elsewhere, are becoming longer and more productive. Visits, official and unofficial, are being set.

And it’s not just in the class of 2025.

Going on the road and beating Alabama and Michigan in back to back years, having a true Heisman candidate, making the college football playoff then coming back and being ranked No. 2 in the country, 11 NFL draft picks, NIL engagement, Sark and his recruiting staff’s style, those things are all contributing to this avalanche.

I’ve seen this sort of momentum before, and not just at Texas. Remember, I’ve been covering recruiting for 30+ years professionally, so I’ve seen runs by other teams like Florida State (1990s), USC (2000s), Bama (2010s) and Georgia (2020s) during that time frame. Texas is absolutely headed in that same direction.

The flood gates are about to open. That’s the feeling I get. There is no hotter team or program in college football than the Texas Longhorns.

Quotes from '26 S Zelus Hicks after committing to Texas (On3):

“Things moved quickly with Texas,” Hicks told On3. “They came out in the spring and offered, they came heavy after me, and after that visit, I felt great about Texas. I liked the school, I meshed with coach Blake Gideon, they just kept applying pressure like no other school and I made my decision."

“They tell me I am No. 1 on their board and they are No. 1 on my board, so it is a perfect match. Me and my dad have been talking about it and I made my decision earlier this week.”

“Texas is a top program. I want to be an impactful player that is competing for championships at a top program like Texas. They are elite with elite players. I can come in, make an impact and help the program keep winning."

“And I get to play for great coaches. Development under coach Gideon was big in my decision. He has done what I want to do before. He has been in my position, he played at Texas, so he knows what it takes."

“The relationships with the Texas coaches was a big factor too. Coach Gideon, coach Sark (Steve Sarkisian) and the whole defensive staff has gotten to know me. The environment was the other thing. My family and I like Texas a lot. My aunt lives in Texas, so it is a great place for me and my family to be.”

“I like coach Gideon a lot,” Hicks said. “It was great working with him when I was out there in June. He has a great coaching style and we just quickly meshed together. He played at Texas, he knows what it is like to be a player there and he knows what it takes to be successful."

“When I worked out with him at camp, he gave me great tips, he was always trying to help me and it was great working with him. I saw our connection and getting that coaching from him for three years, I can be a crazy athlete in the NFL.”

“It meant a lot for coach Sark to recruit me the way he did,” Hicks said. “He is a chill guy, easy to talk to and he is not one of those head coaches that is stuck up that doesn’t know his players. Coach Sark knows his guys. He has real relationships with his players and he really got to know me."

“He talked to me a lot and it meant a lot that he recruited me. Coach Sark made me feel wanted. He is a great coach with a top program and it was a great fit.”

This is the time of year he gets hurt, but it's the ideal time to do so with Louisiana-Monroe, Miss St and then a bye week before OU.

I get that. But I'm not trying to go after the Heisman if it comes down to Quinn not being ready to go. If he has to sit out until the Red River then so be it

[pgardn]

I really think Sark can open up a larger playbook with Ewers just due to experience.
Alternatively, the R in RPO really means something with Arch.
Whatever it takes to win every game.

The Heisman stuff would be a nice addition as it would mean we would always get a look from the best quarterback prospects out of high school. Might also mean we could be a real two deep at the quarterback position in the future. Example: Dillion Gabriel had to leave because Jackson Arnold was not going to wait for OU. Imo there is no way Jackson Arnold is more competent than DillionGabriel right now.

'26 RB priority Javian Osborne of Forney talks his visit to Texas for the UTSA game (On3):

“The Longhorns did an awesome job taking care of business Saturday night,” Osborne told On3. “Excitement is not the word I’ll use. I’ll say what continues to make me go down there is just to continue to feel out the campus the team and everyone else.”

“The utilization of the backs,” Osborne said. “Obviously you seen all the backs doing there thing last week but also seeing how they thrive in the offense and seeing the success they are having the playbook is phenomenal. How Coach Sark uses his guys.”

“Now it’s all about being able to see the depth of the room and where can I fit in and make an instant impact but also making those same connections with other schools,” Osborne said.

And each little tic mark is uhhhh? 15 seconds… put a zero under the 15 as well? The black part of the pie turns white after the time is less than 2 minutes? Or alternatively, this workout has lasted 13 minutes so far… with 2 minutes left?

Arch would have come in halfway in the 3rd any way

[Biily Ray Valentine]

You never want QB1 to get injured, but this could possibly be the perfect scenario. Arch starts the next game, IF fully healthy, both play a half against Miss St., then you have ou preparing for 2 QBs and with a bye week, they are fully healthy and ready.
As far as the Heisman, I always thought that the winning QB of the Tex/GA game, would come out the favorite. Enough of the season left for Ewers to showcase himself.

With all of the things that go with being a QB its best to stay sober.

But the contrast in athleticism between Arch and ALL OUR other QBs is so apparent it is dizzying.
It’s like his dad and his grandpa athletic. Not his Uncles. Also it’s more than a highlight against UTSA. Some very good athletes on UTs defense see him all the time, along with all the coaches. Sarkisian has told fans to pump the brakes but Sark sees the next few years as very positive. I think Sark would be more vocal about it. He did point out that the middle part of his time against UTSA was not what he wants. I think Sark is somewhat giddy as well. But every week it’s show me.

Finebaum is making $ trying to finger his SEC fanbase with a “Texas will rule” tease. These guys know how to get hits and views. JD Pickles does in depth analysis of praise for almost every large college fanbase that is doing well.

If Ewers is healthy, he's gonna play the full game vs Miss St and OU won't prep for Manning. This year is still all about Ewers.

The Arch mania is hilarious after one partial game against lolutsa. But you mix college football fans + that last name + one highlight run and that's what you get.

its definitely over the top, no question. but to be fair, its definitely also not based on one highlight run. while he had some moments where his inexperience clearly showed, he also made some incredibly accurate and difficult throws look easy and natural.

the only way quinn doesnt finish the year out (barring injury) is if he just completely implodes, which i dont see happening. his talent level is clearly high as well, and even last year with what seems to be an inferior team to this season, he led them to being 1 play away from getting to the NC. its really unfair and ridiculous for fans to think that arch already deserves to play over him.
