Kenny Baker was busy Tuesday: Four new offers
Texas defensive line coach Kenny Baker has begun the process of working to cast a national net in the 2025 cycle.
When Baker was officially announced as defensive line coach January 30, there wasn't time to hit schools around the country and evaluate junior defensive linemen in person. Now that Baker is settled in and has had a number of recruiting/staff meetings, the evaluation process, new offers and work to get top targets on campus in March and April has begun.
OnTexasFootball takes a Wednesday morning look at the four new offers made by the Longhorns Tuesday.
