Four Crystal Ball predictions favoring Texas

Despite being ranked so highly already, UT is not done in the 2021 class. Here are the four players UT is predicted to land on Crystal Ball:

JD Coffey

Position: Safety

Class: 2021

Hometown: Kennedale, Texas

Other schools interested: Baylor, LSU, Michigan, Oregon, Washington

Outlook

If Texas has depth in one position group going into the 2020 season, it is the secondary. There is talent left and right, especially with B.J. Foster and Caden Sterns at the safety position. With those two off to the NFL within the next two years, replacements will be needed.

JD Coffey could be the replacement needed, as he is 100% on the Crystal Ball to commit to Texas. The seventh-ranked safety in the 2021 class, Coffey would join the Longhorns’ loaded defensive back roster.

For a couple years now, Texas has dominated in-state recruiting. Coffey’s commitment would be another great in-state prospect for the Longhorns. LSU may make a late push for him, but Texas seems to be the landing spot for Coffey.
