The responses we received revealed a strong vote of confidence in Texas, with most of these elite prospects picking the Longhorns. This level of support goes beyond excitement for a single game—it signifies a genuine belief in the direction and potential of Texas football under Steve Sarkisian.
The renewed confidence in Texas football is a testament to the tremendous impact Sarkisian has made in his three years as head coach. Through strategic recruiting, a commitment to building a winning culture, and a clear vision for the future, he has successfully reestablished Texas as a destination for top talent. Many of these young recruits, who have never seen Texas as a dominant force in their lifetimes, now view the Longhorns as a serious contender on the national stage.
This shift signals that the “sleeping giant” of college football is truly awakening, poised to reclaim its place among the sport’s elite. Sarkisian has brought Texas back to national relevance, inspiring confidence not only within the team but across fan communities throughout the state.
The palpable buzz around Texas football today is reminiscent of the electric atmosphere surrounding the program during its peak years in the mid-2000s. When visiting high school games on Friday nights, it’s easy to see that Texas is back in the spotlight, with fans, parents, and recruits buzzing with renewed pride.

Comments from recruits like 2026 four-star OL Felix Ojo capture this sentiment perfectly. Ojo shared, “I’ve been a Texas fan all my life, and they haven’t been that good, but to see them back dominating brings me great joy.”
Another recruit, 2026 OL prospect Zaden Krempin, echoed this excitement, saying, “It’s good to see Texas play well. They are absolutely rolling right now.” These statements underscore the contagious energy around Texas’s resurgence. For recruits and their families, Texas isn’t just “back” but stands on the brink of something truly remarkable.
