Texas is trending for 2024 Lancaster CB Corian Gipson over the weekend

Texas, not Clemson, might now be in the driver’s seat for Corian Gipson.

Four-star cornerback Corian Gipson is trending to the Longhorns as of Saturday. Inside Texas’ Gerry Hamilton and Eric Nahlin addressed the specifics in their recruiting update.

There’s been plenty of noise about Gipson and Clemson in recent days after visiting the team’s campus June 2. Many were under the impression Gipson was leaning toward the Tigers because of recent developments in his recruitment. Perhaps that isn’t the case.

Inside Texas’ Eric Nahlin appears to be confident in the Longhorns’ chances after predicting a high confidence RPM pick for Texas and the Lancaster defensive back. Nahlin was confident in Arch Manning choosing the Longhorns early when many thought Manning would go elsewhere. His prediction should carry a little more weight with Texas faithful.

The On3 recruiting prediction machine gives Texas a 78% chance to win out with Clemson sitting at 18.9%. The Longhorns will look to close on the elite Dallas-Fort Worth area cornerback in the upcoming months.
