Texas Longhorns Secure Impressive Class on Early National Signing Day

 

AUSTIN, TX — With a little over a week until the Texas Longhorns play the Washington Huskies in the College Football Playoff Semifinals, many Longhorns fans found a distraction and are laser-focused on 2024 and beyond. On Early National Signing Day, the Longhorns signed four different 5-star recruits so far and find themselves at No. 5 in the rankings nationally for the 2024 recruiting class.

Next year’s recruiting class so far features 23 high school recruits and two players from the transfer portal. Four of those prospects are consensus five-star prospects. Notable additions include Xavier Filsaime, a safety who flipped from Florida on Monday, offensive tackle Brandon Baker, running back Jerrick Gibson, and linebacker for the Duncanville Panthers, Colin Simmons.
