Newly hired Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian is continuing to build new relationships with recruits.
Over the last few weeks, Sarkisian’s staff has been busy re-offering several of the nation’s top prospects from the 2022 recruiting class. The latest recruit to receive a re-offer from Texas is four-star defensive end DJ Wesolak.
The 6-foot-5, 225-pound playmaker is listed as the No. 7 overall player in Missouri out of the 2022 class according to Rivals.com. He’s compiled over 30 offers from well-respected programs such as Notre Dame, Michigan State, Penn State, Oregon, Washington, and Nebraska.
Along with the Longhorns, five other Big 12 programs are targeting Wesolak — Iowa State, Oklahoma, Kansas State, West Virginia, and Kansas. Sarkisian has built a strong coaching staff that is highlighted with a few of college football’s top recruiters, therefore they should be able to pick up the pieces left behind from former head coach Tom Herman.
Take a look at Wesolak’s ratings and highlights below.
