Texas Football: Chad Simmons’ high-impact freshmen for 2021

Three signees from Texas’ 2021 recruiting class were chosen as high impact freshmen for this upcoming season.

First-year head coach Steve Sarkisian joined the party late in the cycle, but Texas’ 2021 recruiting class still ended up No. 15 in the country and No. 2 in the Big 12.

There are 23 true freshmen on the Forty Acres this season. The class is headlined by the Longhorns’ lone five-star prospect, versatile athlete Ja’Tavion Sanders. Aside from the Denton Ryan star, 10 talented four-star recruits are in the class.

Will any of them make an impact as true freshmen?

Director of recruiting for On3sports Chad Simmons recently chose three high impact freshmen for Texas ahead of the 2021 college football season. Sanders is the clear no-brainer, but the other two selections — a speedy wide receiver and highly rated safety — were listed ahead of him.

Here are the three 2021 signees Simmons expects to play a significant role for Texas this season.

2021 Recruiting Class: Meet the Longhorns early enrollees

The Texas Longhorns football team has some early additions from the 2021 recruiting class. They have arrived on campus for the spring.

The Longhorns 2021 recruiting cycle will finish up early next week after the second signing day period. A portion of the 2021 class has already started arriving on campus in Austin. Nine of the 21 signees have started getting accustomed to the Forty Acres.

The current class is ranked No. 17 according to 247Sports composite rankings. While these players originally signed on to play for Tom Herman, they will have a new head coach and staff to get accustomed to. It will be an interesting dynamic with Steve Sarkisian running the show for the burnt orange, but many are hopeful for the future of Texas’ football program.

The Longhorns social media department recently put together a video of the early enrollees arriving to campus.

Watch: 2021 Texas commits Jonathan Brooks and J.D. Coffey shine on Friday night

If there is one thing bigger than CFB in the state of Texas, it is high school football. Two 2021 Texas recruits shined early in the season.

If there is one thing bigger than college football in the state of Texas, it is high school football. Friday night lights are back and a couple of 2021 Longhorn recruits shined early in the season.

Beginning with Jonathan Brooks, the running back had another big day for the Hallettsville Brahmas. Brooks exploded for five touchdowns on Friday. Four scores came via the ground, while Brooks was also able to secure a 66-yard receiving touchdown.

Most importantly, the Brahmas got their second victory of the season, beating Ganado 49-7. Now with a 2-1 record, Hallettsville has been riding the back for Brooks. The running back had three touchdowns in the Brahmas’ season opener against Shiner.

A three-star prospect, Brooks has been committed to Texas since May. As things stand, he is the Longhorns only running back in the 2021 recruiting class.

247Sports reporter Nick Harris was on the scene for Brooks’ spectacular night. You can watch the highlights here:

On just his second carry of the game, Jonathon Brooks takes it in from 33 yards out to open up the scoring for #8 Hallettsville.

Moving to the defensive side, four-star safety J.D. Coffey and Kennedale High School opened up its season with a victory against Sunnyvale. Playing safety and returning punts, Coffey was dealing with leg cramps all night according to Mike Roach.

However, Coffey still found a way to make an impact.
