But closing out for this recruiting cycle on a high note ahead of the Early Signing Period is critical for Texas to have a good group in via the 2022 signing class.
Where Sark and the Longhorns look to be losing some ground, though, in the 2022 class of late is with seeing key targets starting to get tighter connections with the coaching staffs of rival schools on the recruiting trail.
A few of the schools that Texas regularly finds itself competing with on the recruiting trail for its top targets are the Oklahoma Sooners, Alabama Crimson Tide, LSU Tigers, Georgia Bulldogs, and the Aggies.
Texas A&M is a key competitor of note, though, on the recruiting trail right now for the Longhorns in the 2022 class.
