Again, Texas posted a top 10 recruiting class at the start of the early signing period, according to the 247Sports composite ranking.
Again, the Longhorns came away with potential impact players at positions of need.
For all the similarities, the current class at the start of the early signing period differs from its most immediate predecessor in a key way. While Texas signed 11 of the top 15 in-state prospects as ranked in the 247Sports composite in the class of 2018, the current group is more eclectic. The Longhorns signed just two players in the state's top 25 - offensive tackle Tyler Johnson and receiver Jordan Whittington.
