Head coach Shaka Smart isn’t off to the hottest start for the 2020 Texas basketball recruiting class. He is looking to change all that soon, though. Texas basketball did finish out the 2019 signing class with a solid group. But that trend needs to continue for a head coach that could soon be on the hot seat, even with Texas Longhorns athletic director Chris del Conte, if more success isn’t found on the court in 2019-20.
However, Smart did see a bit more success on the recruiting trail by landing in the top 11 for a key 2020 high school prospect.
