Wednesday - Recruiting & Indoor Facility

Recruiting.

It hasn’t been front of mind for many given spring training just closed, but it is really starting to heat up behind the scenes.

Texas sits at nine commitments. That’s a solid amount.

Yet with the month of April coming to an end, we will likely see that number at least double in the next 60 days.

So naturally, recruiting is a primary focus inside the building.

A few recruits will make decisions in the next 15-30 days, while most are targeting a June decision. A few others will take it into the football season.

For Texas over the next month, it will be about closing out a couple of those major recruitments while getting ready for the large recruiting weekends in June.

It’s all about setting things up right and then getting it all to the end.

As of now, I like where Texas sits with this recruiting class. And more importantly, they like where they sit.

Many of you have asked about the new indoor facility and the timing of its opening.

The current plan is to have the indoor facility ready for football’s regular season. A grand opening is tentatively planned for the week before the football season opener.

That means the Horns will use the Denius practice fields in August before rotating into the indoor facility come late August, early September.

Texas will be able to show off parts of the new facility during recruiting weekends.

What is the plan for the Denius practice fields and the current indoor bubble?  Will it be redeveloped?

CDC is looking at a state of the art soccer field. I am sure that was an incentive in luring the new coach from UCLA.

Bobby, thanks for correctly using the word "tentatively". The word is not a synonym for timid or lacking authority or overly cautious.
