- Justin, Bobby, and Gerry move to IMG Academy where Texas holds two commits, Jerrick Gibson and Jordon Johnson-Rubell, and are on Jayden Jackson and and TJ Lindsey. The Horns have been fantastic at the private institution in Bradenton, Fla. Justin shifts to safeties, Myles Davis and Joshua Lair, where UT is holding serve with both. Davis wants to announce on August 25th, with Texas and Texas A&M be the top contenders.
- The guys wrap up the show on On3’s No. 1 EDGE in the 2024 cycle, Duncanville (Texas) five-star Colin Simmons. Texas and the staff continue to look great in this recruitment, with LSU, Alabama, Oregon, SMU, and others still in pursuit. The IT guys think this decision could happen before the end of the summer, if not sooner.
