Texas Longhorns 2025 commit visiting Auburn Tigers today
With Early Signing Day moving up a couple of weeks in December, those who follow recruiting can expect November to be a bit more active than normal. This is both good, Texas is set to host at least two out-of-state defenders next week for the Florida game, and not so good.

Inside Texas has learned offensive line commit, Nick Brooks, will attend the Auburn-Vanderbilt game as a guest of the Tigers.
The Loganville (Ga.) Grayson mammoth committed to Texas on August 23rd over overtures from USC, Iowa, and Georgia.
Of course, the nature of recruiting means Texas is still recruiting hard, even at a position like offensive line where Kyle Flood already holds five commitments. On Friday night, Steve Sarkisian stopped by Lewisville’s game against Denton Guyer to check in on five-star Oklahoma commit Michael Fasusi.

Below is IT’s take on Brooks as a player.
Evaluation from the Recruiting Notebook
Brooks is another large human of the sort we’ve become accustomed to seeing at Texas in the Flood era. He’s an easy mover at 6-foot-7, 360 pounds who reminds of Cam Williams or Andre Cojoe from previous classes. Brooks can get low and move well for such a big man on zone concepts but also pulling on counter runs. He’ll profile as a right tackle but there’s a chance he could end up as a left tackle if his pass protection skills develop. Moving inside to guard at that height probably isn’t in the cards but he is a physical run blocker. – Ian Boyd
More from our Charlie Williams:
- Big human
- A mauler with tremendous athleticism
- Can really move and run for his size
- Finishes blocks and plays with a nasty attitude
- Very violent hands and punch
- Can move in space and be a lead blocker on screens or reverses
- Has really good feet and technique
- Shows great upper and lower body strength as he overpowers his opponents
- Very versatile and can play left or right tackle

Brooks gives Flood another big guy who can play tackle. There’s a reason schools known for developing O-linemen like Texas, Georgia, Iowa, and USC want him. He has the size, skills, and tools to be a future first-round pick. He has the ability to step in and be on the two-deep at Texas on day one.
