Who does Texas turn to at RB with Noah Cain, Trey Sanders committed elsewhere?

Throughout much of the recruiting process, elite IMG Academy (Fla.) running backs Trey Sanders and Noah Cain have remained as the top two Texas Longhorns targets at the position, and understandably so.

Ranked No. 1 and No. 7 at the running back position, respectively, Sanders and Cain are among the absolute best ball carriers the 2019 class has to offer — in Sanders’ case, the best — but neither of the two will be playing their college ball in burnt orange.

During an early national signing day ceremony televised on ESPN2, Cain, who began his high school career in Texas at Denton Guyer, announced that he is taking his talents to Penn State.
