Welcome Jordan Scruggs to OTF!

On Texas Football is excited to welcome Jordan Scruggs to our team. Jordan joins us from Horns247, where he was the lead recruiting and portal reporter.

Jordan will expand our recruiting and portal coverage with more in-person footage, interviews, and insider knowledge from across the state and the country.

He has a deep passion for the Texas Longhorns (he grew up going to games with his dad, who still has season tickets) and for Texas high school football.

Please join us in welcoming Jordan to the team!

**

With Jordan’s addition, I want to make something very clear: Nobody in the Texas market comes close to our recruiting coverage or our commitment to it. No one.

Some outlets will break a story or two here or there. OTF won’t be first on everything—there’s simply too much information out there. Some will continue to lean on “national” resources within a larger network, or even rely on Twitter and pass that off as their own information.

But when it comes to Texas football recruiting and the portal, there is no better source than On Texas Football.

As someone who helped start this industry, I can say that with unequivocal authority. With Gerry Hamilton, Hank South, CJ Vogel, and now Jordan, no other group even comes close. Split our group in half and we’d still be Nos. 1 and 2 (and possibly 3 with one of them alone, in my book).

Others can (and will) still posture. But we’re the only ones committed to actually doing the work AND devoting the resources to prove it.

**

When we started On Texas Football as a stand-alone company, I said we wanted OTF to be best in class: to be the product that serious Texas fans wanted and deserved.

I promised that my goal would be to produce the very best video, podcast, and website content, and to build a welcoming, respectful, and insightful gathering place for all Texas fans.

While we're not all the way there yet, just two years in, I think we’re well on our way.

**

With the addition of Jordan, don’t think we’re stopping either. People thought we were done after adding Hank. Or maybe after adding Jeff, CJ, or Marcus before that.

We’ll have more announcements in the coming weeks and months. I think you’re going to want to be along for the ride.

We will never stop in our quest to build the best digital media company for Longhorn fans to enjoy. That's our pledge to you. We're not trying to squeeze blood from a turnip, we're building something special here.

**

As part of our ongoing community-building effort, I’d like to invite those of you who have not subscribed to OnTexasFootball.com to become OTF OG members. We’re making a special offer to new members.

Beginning later today, new subscribers can join for 3 months for just $3 total for a limited time. That’s a heavy discount from our normal pricing, but it reflects how much we want you to join us—and the faith we have in our product.

Over those three months, you’ll get wall-to-wall recruiting coverage in June and July, plus our best-in-class preseason camp coverage from late July into August.

If you’re already an OTF OG, please tell a friend. We’re committed to being the best gathering place for true Texas fans the world over. We need your help to keep building it.

And to think that all it might have taken to prevent all this was Eric Nahlin being a little less greedy with YouTube revenues. Oh well! Their loss is our gain. We love OTF! Great get, Bobby!! Keep dominating the market, doing it the right way, and giving us by far the best UT sports fan experience and news coverage anywhere.

Egos ruin a lot of things that could be the best.  I don't think it will be too long before OTF is back on a national network at this pace if Bobby wants it.

You have not failed in that promise. The content is second to none, and this community is welcoming, respectful, insightful, and fun! If the community wanders off track with its actions and comments, you quickly get us back on track! 
Thanks, Bobby!

I’m glad it worked out this way. Glad I left that place.

Quite honestly him being greedy was the best thing ever. When that placed turned it went downhill quick. Canceled the resub rather quickly

Welcome Jordan. I talked to Jordan off line multiple times while he was at 247. Definitely a great pickup. Bobby is right, OTF is the 5+++++ star. All others are 3 stars.

Clearly not. Both those places only have one reporter each.

@Bobby Burton how will you divide up of which regions which person would cover during recruiting?

Best guess on division of recruiting territories...

Gerry covers every High School within a mile of a Chick fil A !!!

I am with you.  My subscription history is directly correlates to where Bobby is as well.  It is really cool to see so many of my favorite reporters from the Texas sites join here.  Just gets better and better.

@Bobby Burton with a cryptic hint on C&F this morning about more big news this summer. What could it possibly be? Documenting Chip’s acid trips live and sponsored by Rogue Shop? Buying out OB just to shutter that cesspool forever? Bringing on Wiltfong just so that OTF can trademark the Fong Bombs? The possibilities are endless.
