2022 four-star linebacker Kobie McKinzie
Linebacker is another major need for Texas, and Kobie McKinzie seems to have serious interest in the Longhorns already. Texas is poised to lose DeMarvion Overshown, and would likely look to find someone to challenge Luke Brockermeyer for his starting spot.
McKinzie may be the first flip from the group of Oklahoma players that have decommitted, as the Longhorns have already received a crystal ball prediction in their favor.

The Longhorns currently only have one linebacker commit in their 2022 class, and McKinzie offers someone who can play linebacker or even as an edge rusher. He would be a perfect fit for Texas who is trying to revamp a weak defense.
