No. 1 prospect Zachary Evans is one of the most important Texas targets in recent memory

Despite inking yet another No. 3-ranked recruiting haul to cap the 2019 cycle, most would agree the Texas Longhorns missed on the highest-rated targets at the running back position.

While Texas did sign four-star Buford star Derrian Brown, a pair of National Signing Day disappointments largely overshadowed that early addition, as Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy running backs Noah Cain and Trey Sanders each spurned Texas, taking their talents to Penn State and Alabama, respectively.

The best way for Texas to overcome those losses? Sign an even more highly-touted running back in 2020. At this early juncture, the Longhorns are in a fairly ideal position to do exactly that with Galena Park North Shore ball carrier Zachary Evans headlining the big board.
