Texas moves up to No. 24 in the On3 team recruiting rankings, and could move further up in July
Prior to the Wednesday night commitment of North Richland Hills (Texas) Richland offensive lineman and four-star prospect Daniel Cruz, the Texas Longhorns’ 2024 recruiting class was not even within the top 25 of On3’s Team Recruiting Rankings. Add Cruz, the third top-200 member of the class according to the On3 Industry Ranking, and the Horns now sit at No. 24.

With a bevvy of priority Texas targets set to announce in the coming weeks, the Longhorns could move up even further and pass several current and future conference mates in the process.
Texas is just behind several Big 12 and SEC schools grouped close together in the 20s. Texas Tech’s recruiting class is ranked No. 21, Ole Miss’s group is ranked No. 22, and Mississippi State’s commit list has 15 names on it.

Texas has something working to its advantage, as the Longhorns now have eight commits. The Longhorns’ score for their class is 88.422, just 0.105 behind the Rebels with a class with 16 members.
The recruiting class score is within one point of the No. 16 spot in the rankings, which is one place behind current No. 15 Texas A&M. With a number of major targets for Steve Sarkisian‘s program and programs around the nation set to announce in the first week of July following June official visits, Texas is likely to move up in the rankings.
The Longhorns currently rank third among Big 12 schools, and 13th among SEC schools.
