The 2021 Texas football recruiting class got off to a hot start last offseason thanks to a scorching stretch in terms of landing commitments for head coach Tom Herman. In the latter portion of the 2019 offseason, Herman couldn’t slow down for Texas on the recruiting trail. The 2020 and 2021 recruiting class were picking up a lot of momentum at that point in time.
However, the Texas Longhorns football program really saw their fortunes on the recruiting trail slow down for their 2021 class of late. The Longhorns are needing to build back up the relationships they once held with their top targets on the recruiting trail prior to all the coaching staff turnover that transpired since the end of the regular season.
