Texas’ recruiting ace Bryan Carrington left to join USC as a quality control analyst earlier this month. The Longhorns have now zeroed in on his replacement.
Yahoo Sports college football reporter Pete Thamel reported on Monday that Brandon Harris, an offensive analyst at Texas, is expected to become the Longhorns director of recruiting.
Sources: Texas is expected to hire Brandon Harris as the school’s director of recruiting. He replaces Bryan Carrington, who left for USC. As a player, Harris was a highly recruited quarterback in the class of 2014 who played for LSU and UNC.

Harris is one of the few members left over from Tom Herman’s support staff and he was lauded for being a key factor in the the combination of running backs Roschon Johnson and Bijan Robinson.
The former college quarterback has only been a part of the Texas support staff in regards to his post-playing career, but after just two years in Austin, he has quickly ascended to a coveted position within the program. That says enough about how well-respected he is among his peers.
After the early commitment from rising three-star linebacker Trevell Johnson and five-star quarterback Maalik Murphy, Harris will have a nice head start in his new role.
