Rivals Analyst: Texas Losing Grip on Lone Star Recruiting

Rob Cassidy of rivals.com posted his interesting perspective on recruiting battles in the state of Texas.

Many of us who followed the recruiting class of 2015 observed tense battles between the University of Texas and Texas A&M for key players. The Longhorns were able to sign Kris Boyd, Holton Hill and Malik Jefferson, while the Aggies landed Daylon Mack and Kyler Murray, among others.

Rivals.com analyst Rob Cassidy provided some insight into how the class of 2016 is shaping up, and from his view (and from others), the Longhorns are currently operating from behind.

It's a reality that the once-dominant Longhorns have finished second to Texas A&M in the state recruiting rankings each of the last three years.
