Texas football had the strongest part of its 2018 recruiting class haul in the secondary. Even for the 2019 recruiting class for the Longhorns, one part of the roster that really stands out is the group of talent in the secondary. The two top overall signees from the 2018 class for the Horns were a pair of five-star safeties in Caden Sterns and B.J. Foster.
Sterns was the top overall safety recruit in the nation for the 2018 cycle. Foster was the third best safety in the nation and still a top 25 overall prospect. Even the third best signee for the Horns for this past recruiting cycle was the sixth best cornerback in the nation in Jalen Green.
