The 2018 recruiting cycle was the first full year for Tom Herman and his staff to actually go out and recruit the talent they felt would fit their system perfectly. From an offensive standpoint, it was imperative to the staff to recruit field generals that would potentially hold the keys to Tim Becks offense. The Longhorns were able garner two quarterback commitments last cycle from Cameron Rising and Casey Thompson, though the two have yet to see any game action this season.
Yet another insanely gifted quarterback will soon be headed in Herman and Beck’s direction, and he’s one of the nation’s best playmakers at the position.
