Texas is on a roll, with Steve Sarkisian leading the charge to secure another top-10 recruiting class. As the Longhorns gear up for their sixth full season under Sarkisian in 2026, they've assembled a roster that's among the most talented in all of college football. This success is no fluke; it's a result of their elite high school recruiting. For four consecutive years (2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025), Texas signed a top-10 class nationally, including the No. 1 overall class in 2025. Their 2026 crop, which finished No. 10 in the Rivals Industry Team Recruiting Rankings, was the 'worst' of the bunch, with three five-stars and 15 blue-chip signees in total. But Sark and his team aren't after one-off success; they're recruiting to keep building and building into 2027 and beyond. And the 2027 recruiting class is further proof of that. Texas has already secured six commitments through mid-February and is sitting inside the top-10 again. In addition to a quartet of high three-stars, the Longhorns have two blue-chippers already in the fold, led by Easton Royal, the nation's No. 1 wide receiver prospect out of Louisiana. Royal chose Texas over in-state LSU, as well as Ole Miss, Miami, Georgia, and dozens of other offers. And he won't be the only elite prospect the Longhorns are in a position to sign come December. Texas Longhorns class by position: Quarterback: Ty Knutson (unranked) Wide receiver: Five-star Easton Royal (No. 7 NATL, No. 1 WR) Tight end: Three-star JT Geraci (No. 538 NATL., No. 27 TE) Edge rusher: Four-star Cameron Hall (No. 242 NATL., No. 24 EDGE) Linebacker: Three-star Cade Haug (No. 432 NATL., No. 32 LB) Safety: Three-star Greedy James (No. 583 NATL., No. 63 S)
