Texas set up for elite OL haul in 2026
Kyle Flood and the Longhorns are set up for an elite offensive line haul in 2026. Texas is expected to sign a class of five or six in the 2026 cycle, and the list of possibilities are setting up for some tough decisions.
OnTexasFootball takes a look at offensive line prospects Flood has been by to see already, and is scheduled to see this week before the dead period begins.
Flood's January stops ...
Sam Utu, OT/G, Orange (Calif.) Orange Lutheran
OnTexasFootball ranking: 4-star++
Note: OTF believes Texas has a legit shot here, and could be considered the favorite behind the scene.
Kodi Greene, OT, Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei - Oregon commit
OnTexasFootball ranking: 4-star++
Note: OTF believes Greene will make an unofficial visit this spring.
Nicolas robertson, IOL, Klein (Texas) High
OnTexasFootball ranking: 4-star+
Note: OTF believes Texas leads large currently. June 20 OV locked in.
John Turntine III, OT, Fort Worth (Texas) North Crowley
