Kevin Wynn Update OnTexasFootball caught up with a source very close to Greensboro (Ga.) Greene County 4-star+ Kevin Wynn Monday afternoon. The Texas Longhorns continue to work on getting Wynn on campus November 23rd, with his father. As of Monday around lunchtime, there has not been a visit locked in. OTF gives a rundown of the key news and notes around the Wynn recruitment: 1. Wynn remains committed to Florida State. And FSU still has a chance to sign him. 2. In Wynn's mind, the top three are FSU, South Carolina and Texas. 3. Georgia would be a compromise school. The Dawgs are not a top three choice for Wynn, himself. 4. USC remains…

Kevin Wynn Visit Update Florida State commit and OnTexasFootball 4-star+ DL Kevin Wynn (Greensboro, Ga./Greene County) will not be making the visit to Texas this weekend per a source very close to the 6-2, 324-pound defensive tackle. Texas wants Wynn to make his next visit to Austin with his father, who was not able to make the June OV. That is not possible now this weekend, so Texas and Wynn are rescheduling. Wynn still wants to get back to Texas prior to December 4, so finding the date when both parents can attend is key. Wynn made a visit to USC last weekend. That visit was also made without his father. Visits to FSU and Georgia are ones his fathe…

Texas has hit a bit of a wall in recruiting to wrap up the month of June. Is it time to panic? No. Is it frustrating? Yeah, probably. The Texas staff has extended its net more than it ever has before with national recruiting in 2026. It is a sign of the Longhorns hoping to reap what they have sowed over the last handful of seasons, plus the ever-important factor of NIL. With that said, winning out of state, and even out of region, recruitments is not easy. Texas has put 23 players into the NFL Draft over the last two years – the most of any school in the country. Yet still, packing up and moving to Austin remains a large decision that some recruits just aren't r…

Key year loading: 2024 recruiting class The 2024 recruiting class was a third straight top 5 level ranked class when they signed in December of senior year. The class was headlined by National Freshman of the Year Colin Simmons and 5-star wide receiver Ryan Wingo, who were both impact players. As it stands starting this week, there are nine players in the "two deep" and With the No. 1 ranked 2025 class right behind the 2024 class, the 2025 season is a key one for a number of members of the 2024 class when it comes to holing off a number of talented payers behind them from the 2025 class. OnTexasFootball take a look at the 2024 class headed into week…

Let's get right to. What does Texas need to do to take care of the Cotton Bowl and head to the National Championship? To me, there are five key areas the Longhorns must have success in to ensure the victory and book their third flight to Atlanta in a month span. *** Coming Up Golden Over the three postseason games for the Longhorns, WR Matthew Golden has 360 yards on 17 receptions for an average of 21.2 yards per reception. He has come up clutch time and time again for the Longhorns during this run, especially down the stretch and in overtime against Arizona State. Texas must continue to feed Golden. I am looking at the range of 13-15 targets on Friday…

Felt weird typing 2025 on the title line. But here we are, preparing for the first day and game of the new year. Texas and Arizona State will kickoff at noon central time Wednesday in the first game of a three-game slate for the CFP Quarterfinal. My keys to the game. *** Limit Skattebo in Space Of course it would be huge for Texas to completely take away Skattebo from the ASU game plan, but that is unreasonable. Skat is a heck of a football player and the Sun Devils are going to force feed him the rock as much as Texas has seen from a single player this season. But what the Longhorns can focus on is limiting the top-five Heisman finalist in space.…

Come Early, Be Loud, Stay Late, Wear Orange. To no surprise, Texas and Ohio State will square off under the lights of Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 12 at 6:30 p.m. CT on ABC, the University announced on Tuesday afternoon. College GameDay will be on hand on the Forty Acres for the occasion. To go with that, the Longhorns learned their Black Friday kickoff time for the Lone Star Showdown with Texas A&M. That, too, will kick at 6:30 p.m. CT on Nov. 27 from Kyle Field, also on ABC. The Longhorns are looking to avenge back-to-back losses to Ohio State the past two seasons, while Texas will be going for its third straight win ag…

Manning's Absence Leads to Fantastic Opportunity for Lacey to Grow in Live Setting *** The back-up quarterback. In college, it's a position where fans and talking heads speculate often about how bright the future of the program could be. In the pros, it's all about longevity and holding the clipboard for as long as possible. Across all levels of football, it’s a reminder that a season can change in a single snap. Texas fans know this reality all too well after the past two decades. Fortunately, the Longhorns appear to be in strong hands at quarterback this fall, and the reps redshirt freshman QB KJ Lacey is currently getting with the first-team offense…

Texas is wrapping up practice 14 of the spring, and the local media will get a chance to speak with the offensive coaches. Similar to last week with the defensive coaches, we will start with word from the offensive coordinator Kyle Flood. Will post updates from Flood in the comments below. Updates from the position coaches will come this afternoon. View full news story

EDGE Colin Simmons to Add More to Pass Rushing Bag Under LaAllen Clark Texas EDGE Colin Simmons spoke with the media on Wednesday for the first time this spring. Following up on a phenomenal freshman campaign, Simmons is looking to add to his pass rushing arsenal with the addition of new edge rushing coach LaAllen Clark. When speaking with the media, Simmons singled out Clark's instruction as something that gets him excited for what is to come this fall. "Amazing," Simmons said of Clark since his arrival. "I love him, dog. That's my guy. He has taught me a lot since him (got) here." Simmons, the Shaun Alexander Freshman of the Year for 2024, recorded n…

Texas EDGE Lance Jackson Honored on SEC All-Freshman Team *** Texas edge rusher Lance Jackson capped a breakout freshman campaign by becoming the second Longhorn named to the SEC All-Freshman Team, joining Colin Simmons last season. Jackson appeared in all 12 games and quickly established himself as one of Texas’ most reliable young disruptors, finishing with 15 tackles, 2.0 sacks, and four quarterback pressures. Jackson made an impression right away, starting the season with two tackles and a quarterback hurry in the home opener against San Jose State. He followed that up by recording his first collegiate sack against Sam Houston. Then, as Texas moved…

AUSTIN, Texas — CJ and I were out at Westlake High School this morning to watch Lance Jackson and Colin Simmons work out. Joining the Texas duo were some top collegiate athletes from across the country. On hand coaching the edge players that included Simmons, Jackson, Ole Miss freshman Landon Barnes, and Texas A&M freshman Bryce Perry-Wright was renowned player development and pass rush specialist Brandon Tucker (Trenchwarfare). He spoke with OTF afterwards to share his thoughts on the two Longhorns. (This is just a snipped from Tucker, you can watch the full interview below.) On Colin Simmons: “So Colin is a generational talent. He’s one of those guy…

Landen Williams-Callis Announcement Live Thread The record-setting running back out of Richmond Randle High is set to announce his commitment at around 6:45pm CT tonight. Texas, Missouri, SMU, Texas A&M and Houston are the finalists. Texas has been considered the favorite for the last few weeks. Confidence remains in Austin headed into the weekend, but as always we must await the announcement from Williams-Callis. Williams-Callis' announcement ceremony will take place at the Rosenberg Civic Center. OnTexasFootball will be there live. View full news story

Landen Williams-Callis chasing Texas High School records in 2026 Texas fans are awaiting the Saturday announcement by Landen Williams-Callis with hopes that the 5-8, 197-pound record-setting running back will pick the Longhorns over SMU, Texas A&M, Missouri and Houston. Following Williams-Callis' commitment ceremony, all headlines about the Houston area star will turn to a senior season that could end with his name littered all over the rushing and scoring record books. OnTexasFootball takes a look at where Williams-Callis stands in the record books headed into the season. Career Rushing Yards 11,382 Kaegan Ash, Mount Enterprise, 2022-25 11,2…

As Texas gears up to head to Omaha for the College World Series, the Longhorns have also geared up to be very active in the portal. They started it off with a bang, landing Texas Tech INF Linkin Garcia last week. Garcia, who is considered one of the Top 25 portal players, will play the hot corner for the Longhorns. He will have three seasons of eligibility remaining, but it’s worth noting he will be eligible for the 2027 MLB Draft. — It didn’t stop there, however, as a handful of other players made their way to the Forty Acres later in the week. One of those players was TCU catcher Nolan Traeger. Traeger went .287 this past season, with four …

If you’re wanting good news, stop here and press the back button on your browser. Do not go any further. As of tonight, I do not expect the following to end up in Austin: Beau Peterson Brody Bumila Cooper Harris Grady Emerson That’s obviously a huge turnaround from what I reported earlier in the week, which was that Emerson was the only one that was a 100% for sure thing. This is a worst case scenario situation for Texas and was not expected to happen. I will go into this more later along with what the plan is now. Will Texas be okay? Absolutely. Does this suck? Absolutely.

Following the Horns series clenching win over the Aggies on Saturday, I spoke with some sources regarding freshman Jonah Williams. Originally the plan was to play Williams this weekend, if he was ready. As of Friday morning, there was a good feeling he would be back against the Aggies. That changed later that day and we didn’t see Williams in the lineup yesterday or today. You won’t see him tomorrow either, I’m told. Williams tweaked his hamstring against Texas State and the staff is in no hurry to put him back out on the field until he’s good to go. I also wouldn’t expect to see him on Tuesday against Prairie View A&M either. With t…

A couple of recruiting updates on some elite 2026 and 2027 prospects in attendance for the Georgia game this weekend. *** A few notes on 2026 visitors: – 2026 Miami Trace (OH) OL Adam Guthrie was able to spend time with Kyle Flood prior to the game. A big attraction for Guthrie prior to his Texas offer was the commitment of QB Dia Bell in the 2026 class and the two were able to catch up a good bit during the afternoon. "We got to hangout and take it in together," Guthrie said about his time with Dia Bell. "I spoke to Coach Flood pregame and then after the game." Guthrie stuck around for a campus tour on Sunday as well. – 2026 Port Arthur Memo…
