Offensive line recruiting will be the most critical part of the Texas’ 2022 class. Tom Herman’s staff neglected the positional group during his last year in charge, leaving the depth chart thin and without elite talent.
With the new staff, Steve Sarkisian and Kyle Flood continue to reach out to the top offensive lineman in the country. On Thursday, they went up north to Wisconsin and extended an offer to Carson Hinzman, a four-star offensive guard.
Eight Big Ten schools have offered Hinzman, the most out of any conference. Iowa State and Kansas State are the only other Big 12 schools that have gotten into the Hinzman sweepstakes.
