The Longhorn staff continues to build an increasingly strong national footprint in the 2024 cycle, while attacking the home state. The January 21 junior day was one of the most impressive in Austin in quite some time with sights set on March for another huge recruiting weekend.
Today, Inside Texas takes a look at the 2024 offers in a two-part series. First part is where inside the state lines the offers are coming from broken down by regions within the Lone Star State.
A reminder that all offers are not the same.
