Texas Longhorns Offer 2021 Four-Star Running Back

The Texas Longhorns and head coach Tom Herman have offered 2021 four-star running back Donovan Edwards of West Bloomfield, Michigan.

During the Longhorns recruiting event in Austin on Saturday, they met with four-star running back Donovan Edwards of West Bloomfield, Michigan. Edwards is currently the number two ranked running back in the nation and the third-highest rated recruit in the state of Michigan.

The Longhorns have extended an offer to the highly touted back. The three schools highest on his list at this point are Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State according to his 247 profile. Edwards marks the sixth running back that Texas has extended an offer to. Phil Mafah is the only one who has committed elsewhere. The other five have yet to make a commitment.

It is hard to fathom that Edwards will go with Texas over his top three with Bijan Robinson (the nation’s top-rated 2020 back) on his way to the Forty Acres.

Texas offers 2021 Five-Star Linebacker

UT has offered 2021 five-star linebacker Raesjon Davis. Playing at Mater Dei High School, Davis is the highest-ranked OLB in the country.

Texas has offered 2021 five star linebacker Raesjon Davis from Santa Ana, CA. Playing his high school football at Mater Dei High School, Davis is the highest-ranked outside linebacker in the country. The 19th ranked player in the country, Davis is 6 feet 1 inch and 215 pounds.

Currently committed to LSU, Davis announced his commitment to the Tigers on New Year’s Day. With the LSU’s defensive coordinator Dave Aranda off to be the head coach of Baylor, teams have started to start talking to Davis again.

Aranda and the Bears have also offered him since taking over as the head coach and the two schools are the fourth and fifth Big 12 schools to offer Davis. Kansas, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State have are the others.

In the past, Mater Dei High School has been a pipeline for future USC players. According to 247Sports Crystal Ball, Davis is 50% on LSU and 50% on USC right now. While Texas may not be the favorite right now, Chris Ash and the defensive staff are trying to get their hands on one of the best defensive prospects in the 2021 class.

Texas offers 2021 four star quarterback

Texas has offered 2021 QB Sawyer Robertson out of Coronado High School. Listed as a four-star QB, Robertson would join a busy QB room.

Texas has offered 2021 quarterback Sawyer Robertson out of Coronado High School in Lubbock, TX. Currently rated a four-star prospect on 247sports.com, Robertson is the tenth highest pocket passer QB in the 2021 class.

The Longhorns are his tenth offer, receiving them from Power 5 schools like Louisville, Mississippi State, Washington State, and Wisconsin. Other local Texas schools like SMU, North Texas, and Texas State have also offered Robertson.

While 2020 will be a full quarterback room with Sam Ehlinger, Casey Thompson, Roschon Johnson, and Hudson Card, 2021 will be an open battle for the role of starter.

A quarterback has already committed to Texas in the 2021 class, with Jalen Milroe verbally committing in July. If Robertson were to join Milroe in the class, it would be even busier in the quarterback room than it will be next season.

The No. 1 quarterback in the 2021 class has de-committed from the Sooners.

Brock Vandagriff, a five-star quarterback, and the No. 4 overall prospect in the 2021 class has announced that he will re-open his recruitment process after being committed to Oklahoma since June 20, 2019.

The 6-foot-3, 198-pound pro-style quarterback out of Bogart, Ga. (Prince Avenue Christian School) has offers from nearly every single power-5 school in the country.

Although a big blow to Oklahoma’s 2021 outlook and a pretty unexpected decision by a lot of fans, the Sooners are still in good shape. Lincoln Riley still has all of his cards in play when it comes to the 2021 class, including the No. 1 dual-threat quarterback and the No. 5 overall prospect via Rivals, Caleb Williams (Gonzaga High School; Washington D.C.).

Williams is a 6-foot-1, 200-pound dual-threat and took a visit to Oklahoma on Sept. 28 when the Sooners beat Texas Tech 55-16. Per Rivals, Williams is favoring LSU and Georgia but with an opening at Oklahoma and Riley’s history with quarterbacks, Williams could reconsider.

Arkansas making a push for 2021 Texas quarterback commit Milroe

Arkansas recently met with 2021 QB Jalen Milroe. Meeting with CB coach Sam Carter, Milroe was “impressed” with Arkansas after speaking.

According to Richard Davenport of WholeHogSports.com, Arkansas recently met with long-time Texas commit and 2021 four-star quarterback Jalen Milroe. Meeting with Hog’s cornerback coach Sam Carter, Milroe was “impressed” with Arkansas after speaking with him.

He was also informed that the Razorbacks would be offering him a scholarship, extending his list of offers. Recently hiring former Georgia offensive line coach Sam Pittman, the rebuild of Arkansas has already begun.

You can read the full story from the Arkansas perspective, here.

Milore had an incredible junior season at Thompson High School in Katy, TX, winning the District 19-6A MVP. Listed as a dual-threat quarterback on 247Sports, Milroe threw for 2,689 yards with 29 touchdowns and eight interceptions, while also rushing for 378 yards and eight touchdowns. Add in his 4.6 speed and he will be something special if he stays committed to the Longhorns.

Having offers from other big time schools like Alabama, Florida, Nebraska, and Oregon, Milroe is a wanted man. He has been a huge foundation piece for the Longhorns in building the 2021 class. Losing Milroe would be a huge loss for Texas and they must keep him committed.
