Texas Football Recruiting: Dual-threat quarterback receives offer from Longhorns

Four-star quarterback Conner Weigman picked up a Texas offer on Thursday. The Longhorns will be trying to replace five-star Quinn Ewers.

Entering the season, it seemed as if quarterback was not going to be an issue in Texas’ 2022 recruiting class. Five-star Quinn Ewers was committed and possibly taking the Longhorns’ program to a different level.

A couple of mistakes later, Tom Herman lost the generational talent to the Ohio State Buckeyes. A lifelong Horns fan, Ewers, will be the next example of elite prospects leaving the state of Texas.

Luckily, the state still has two elite quarterback prospects the Longhorns can duke it out for. Cade Klubnik is a four-star pro-style quarterback out of Westlake High School.

On Thursday, dual-threat quarterback Conner Weigman joined the mix. Weigman is a four-star prospect, and Texas will be heavily invested in trying to sign both.

Texas Football Recruiting: 2022 five-star wide receiver lists Longhorns among top schools

Five-star wide receiver Kevin Coleman Jr. announced his top 13 schools Wednesday night. Texas is the only Big 12 school to make the cut.

[jwplayer CcVChl0T-er0jUifI]

Texas’ 2022 recruiting class has the chance to be special, highlighted by five-star quarterback Quinn Ewers. Four-star cornerback Jaylon Guilbeau and four-star wide receiver Phaizon Wilson join Ewers in the class at this point in time.

With the firepower that is already present, Tom Herman will be trying to bring in even more talent, especially on the offensive side of the ball.

Wide receiver Kevin Coleman Jr. is one of those players and the five-star announced his top 13 schools on Wednesday night. Alabama, Auburn, Arizona State, Florida State, Georgia, LSU, Miami, Notre Dame, Oregon, Penn State, Purdue, and USC join the Longhorns in the race for Coleman.

Nationally, Coleman is the No. 19 player and the No. 4 wide receiver in the 2022 class. He also ranks as the No. 2 player in the state of Missouri. Current Oklahoma Sooners wide receiver commit Luther Burden is the only player who ranks ahead of Coleman in-state.

With a five-star quarterback, blue-chip targets are bound to follow Ewers to Austin. Wide receiver is going to be a position of strength for Texas in the 2022 class, possibly headlined by in-state guys Caleb Burton and Evan Stewart.

If those two commit to Texas and are joined by Coleman, Mike Yurcich’s offense will be one of the most stacked groups in the entire country, let alone the Big 12.

Watch: 2022 Texas Longhorns commit Quinn Ewers in action

Texas top commit in the 2022 class was in action on Thursday night. Check out some of the highlights from Quinn Ewers.

As we get deeper into the month of September, high school football is starting to ramp up. That includes the state of Texas where 2022 quarterback commit Quinn Ewers finally is back on the field. Southlake Carroll was in action against DeSoto and Ewers was on full display early on.

The No. 1 quarterback of the class, Ewers committed to Texas early on in the process with another year plus before he can sign his letter of intent. He is the highest rated quarterback to commit to Texas since the legendary Vince Young. At the time of his commitment, he had a perfect rating that has since dropped ever so slightly.

On Thursday night, Ewers was showing off his arm talent. This backfoot throw with a flick of the wrist went 60 yards on target. That was, dare I say, Patrick Mahomes-esque? He definitely has a live arm.

Seeing the top recruit in their 2022 class should give fans a lot of excitement about the future. With his arm talent, the sky is the limit for the Texas offense. Whoever is the quarterback after Sam Ehlinger moves on to the NFL will be put on notice. Ewers is coming in hot to take the starting role at the school he grew up rooting for.

Texas trending towards 2022 four-star cornerback on 247Sports crystal ball

Issac Thompson, a four-star cornerback out of Saint Louis, has been trending towards Texas on the 247Sports crystal ball over the weekend.

Texas’ 2022 recruiting class got off to a hot start on the offensive side of the ball with five-star and No. 2 overall player Quinn Ewers and four-star wide receiver Phaizon Wilson. Now, cornerbacks coach Jay Valai is seemingly about to land another blue-chip player.

Issac Thompson, a four-star cornerback out of Saint Louis, Missouri, has been trending towards the Longhorns on the 247Sports crystal ball over the weekend. Three people have inserted picks for Texas since Sept. 11 with the confidence level of six. Sean Bock, an Iowa insider, is the most confident with a score of seven.

Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, and West Virginia are the other six Big 12 teams to offer Thompson. Top schools from the rest of the country such as Florida, LSU, Michigan, and Miami have also extended a scholarship to the cornerback.

Thompson has been open about the possibility of committing to Texas on Twitter. After Kevin Lamar Coleman Jr., another St. Louis native, received an offer from the Longhorns, Thompson tweeted out his support with a hook ’em emjoi.

See what Thompson can bring to Texas if he becomes a member of the 2022 recruiting class:
