The state of Texas produced seven five-star prospects in the 2022 recruiting class.
Both Texas and Texas A&M are doing their part in assuring that the top in-state talent stays in Texas. We’ve witnessed Ohio State and Alabama come into the state and pluck the top prospects far too often in the past.
For the 2022 cycle, the Longhorns and Aggies either already signed or are in great position to sign eight of the top in-state recruits in the class. The top prospect from the state of Texas is five-star linebacker Harold Perkins, who has yet to officially sign with his school of choice. However, Texas A&M is emerging as the clear-cut favorite.
The Aggies have put together the No. 1 recruiting class up to this point, in large part due to the in-state talent. They’re in great position to land 10 of the top 20 prospects in the state. Texas isn’t far behind with the No. 5 class in the country, and expected to sign five of the top 20 in-state recruits.
It’s no secret that Texas High School Football produces some of the best talent in the nation. Take a look at where each of the highest rated in-state prospects have signed up to this point.
