Inside Texas delivers the latest on a nice recruiting weekend for UT\u2019s Spring game, looking at a second quarterback in 2025, and which offensive lineman is trending Texas in Monday\u2019s Inside Scoop. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt was amazing,\u201d Russell told Inside Texas. \u201cJust great vibes and met with Coach (Steve) Sarkisian. He\u2019s a very great guy, but even better head coach. The other coaches are amazing as well, just a great overall experience.\u201d<\/p>\n
Texas, Florida, and Ole Miss are in the mix. Alabama coaches are set to see him at Duncanville on Tuesday. He\u2019s scheduled official trips to Ole Miss (April 27-29), SMU (May 17-19), and Florida (June 7-9) at this stage. But more could be on the way. <\/p>\n
\u201cI have Ole Miss this coming up week, then figuring some stuff out between schools,\u201d said Russell. <\/p>\n
Russell passed for 3,267 yards with 35 touchdowns and only three interceptions in 2023. He also had 304 yards rushing with four touchdowns on the ground.<\/p>\n
Texas is perfectly happy with 2025 Saraland (Ala.) four-star KJ Lacey in the Class of 2025. But with Quinn Ewers headed to the NFL next season, it leaves only two scholarship quarterbacks on the roster in January; Arch Manning and Trey Owens. <\/p>\n
Russell is the contingency with possibly more upside than the current take. This is just Sarkisian and that staff being diligent. <\/p>\n
The dynamic four-star had yet to bring his family to Austin for a look at the Longhorns until Saturday. It certainly went well. <\/p>\n
At 5-foot-11, 160 pounds, and star on the basketball court and track, Johnson has a number of programs clamoring for the ultra quick pass-catcher. After canceling his unofficial to USC in order to attend Texas\u2019 Orange-White game, Johnson was able to see the wide receiver play in action and catch up with Sarkisian and Chris Jackson<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n With offers from Texas, USC, Texas Tech, Penn State, Texas A&M, Arkansas, TCU, Florida, Kansas, and Tennessee, the\u00a0On3 Industry Ranking\u2019s No. 25-ranked wide receiver<\/a><\/strong> and No. 31-ranked prospect in Texas for 2025 has plenty of options. <\/p>\n If Johnson decides to jump in the Texas class, it was almost assure the Horns are taking four receivers this cycle. <\/p>\n After Texas A&M took a pledge from Prosper (Texas) OL Connor Carty<\/a><\/strong> last week, and Texas trending with the 6-foot-5, 295-pound Golden Triangle product, this could be one of the dominoes that determines how the in-state crop of offensive linemen settle in. <\/p>\n Christian recently made multiple stops in Austin and could be looking at a decision soon. He feels like he has most of the information to begin narrowing down the schools. Plus, with has official visits to Texas, Texas A&M, and Texas Tech scheduled, this recruitment might not last too much longer. <\/p>\n Christian is a guard at the next level, with center attributes and capabilities. <\/p>\n On3 ranks Christian as the No. 31 interior offensive lineman and the No. 71 player in Texas.<\/p>\n The post Inside Scoop: Latest on 2025 QB Keelon Russell, 2025 WR Kelshaun Johnson, and 2025 OL Jackson Christian<\/a> appeared first on On3<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Inside Texas delivers the latest on a nice recruiting weekend for UT\u2019s Spring game, looking…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-48683","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48683","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48683"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48683\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":48714,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48683\/revisions\/48714"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48683"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48683"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48683"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Jackson Christian<\/a><\/strong>, OL, Port Neches-Groves<\/h2>\n
