Johntay Cook and Malik Muhammad are excited to get to Texas

“Bringing that 214 tradition to the 512.”

Johntay Cook and Malik Muhammad are two of many Texas signees representing the Longhorns at the Under Armor All-American game in Orlando this week.

Cook has been cooking opposing defensive backs in the practice portion of the camp. The five-star wide receiver has a knack for creating separation and making big plays.

Muhammad is impressive with his athleticism and instincts in Florida so far. He snagged an interception during Friday’s scrimmage and showed off some great reps vs. elite wide receiver talents.

The two are coming off state championship runs for DeSoto and South Oak Cliff, respectively. Cook and Muhammad are ready to bring their championship pedigree to Texas.

Tune in to EPSN at 4 p.m. CT to watch the 2023 Under Armor All-American game. It is the last chance Texas signees have to showcase their skills before arriving on campus.

Texas included in top schools for four-star LB Liona Lefau

Texas is in the mix for the best player out of Hawaii.

Even with all the offseason additions Texas made ahead of the 2022 season, they were unable to address the linebacker position.

It is very likely that this position will be a huge point of emphasis for Steve Sarkisian and his staff when it comes to recruiting the 2023 class. After the 2022 season, the Longhorns are set to lose some key players at the linebacker spot as players like DeMarvion Overshown are set to move on from Texas after the season.

They received some positive news via Twitter in terms of their standing with one of the nation’s best linebacker recruits, as four-star Liona Lefau released his top eight schools and it included the Longhorns.

The Kahuku. Hawaii native is also deciding between schools such as USC, Oklahoma, and Oregon. He ranks as the No. 181 player in the country, No. 15 linebacker, and the best player in the state of Hawaii according to 247Sports.
