Small note, but OTF reporting Andre Cojoe got reps at first team RT today.
I'll report back if I see why Texas isn't here.

OTF posted that Texas was not expecting this, and they definitely want Katoa.
He was scheduled to visit campus next weekend, and then take an official visit in June.
According to 247, DT offer Kendall Guervil of Fort Myers, FL has set his Texas official for June 20th.
Originally he was looking at June 6th.

'27 S target JayQuan Snell of Waxahachie will be returning to Austin on April 12th, per OTF.

IT added that once Nicolas Robertson committed, they feel that was likely the end of Texas' chances with Katoa.
I think SMU is now a team to watch with their recent hire of Langi.
My fault, forgot to come back to this.
I think it's most important to emphasize Sark is taking a "best players available" approach, and not just positional needs, as long as the NIL allocation makes sense.
As far as top-tier needs:
• WR - I'm definitely on the Livingstone hype train, but would like to see a 1B to Wingo's 1A. Stanford's second leading WR Emmett Mosley, who also led the ACC in freshman receiving, just entered the portal but not sure he'll have the experience Sark covets a la Bolden, Bond and Golden last year. Mosley held a Texas offer in high school.
• TE - Even before Washington got hurt last week, the staff was planning to address this and IT mentioned recently they're confident the staff has it covered already.
• RB - I'd feel more confident here if Baxter and Clark weren't coming off of major injuries, and anxious to see if Coach Scott tries to take advantage of his close relationship with Jahiem White from West Virginia as he's run for 800+ yards in the past two seasons.
• LB - I was thinking the staff could go shopping here, but moving Moore over from DE seems to make that much less likely.
• DT - Coach Baker did quite well in the winter portal imo, but I'd like to see them add one more guy even if it's for depth with the seasons getting longer.
247 confirmed Pepe will be in Austin on June 20th, and that's his last official of the summer.
Texas is casting a wide net at a lot of top prospects on the OL. There will be a lot of great players that don't sign with Texas, but the horns will have a top-notch class on the OL nonetheless.
Agree ��. I think if the right players are available, Sark might go with 2 WRs.
Super talented room, but very inexperienced.
