Christian Garrett is a top 5 DL (according to On3) from Georgia, could we see Baker pursue?

Sounds like it’s a flip to Georgia Tech.  UGA fans saying the recruit is being processed to make room for Justus Terry and the other 5-star DL leaning UGA’s way (E.Griffin).

Assuming so, maybe this opens the door for Texas with Hanne (should UGA land another two 5-star DTs in the coming days and weeks)?

Must be nice to have such strong DL recruiting 

Should have hired G Tech's DT coach😂😂

not like we are lighting it up in DT recruiting.  

DT doesn’t look any better in 2026 either.

With a DT coach that doesn't have a deep resume or connections what was to be expected. That's not on him totally. He has a chance to develop and build relationships , but takes time.

Unless we start opening the NIL vault to help it won't be great.DT is not a position to experiment with your 3rd or 4th choice for a coach. Yet here we are. A good DT year, up NIL and we might salvage some guys we need . I wish him well, but will never believe he was the best we could get period. 

Texas was never getting Christian Garrett.  There’s a reason why fans aren’t in charge of recruiting; which means some wouldn’t have been patient enough to get Banks, Campbell, Williams, Hill, Mack, Filasame, and other flips/commits later in recruiting cycles.
