Texas Class 2022 Recruitment Tracker

One of the main reasons Texas chose to part with Tom Herman was the decline in recruitments. The 2021 group finished as the No. 17 class in the country and second in the Big 12 behind Oklahoma.

Now that head coach Steve Sarkisian has taken over, recruiting has been immediately revived. The momentum began just a day after Sarkisian’s national championship win with Alabama, when four-star wide receiver Armani Winfield announced his commitment on January 12.

In its first month at the Forty Acres, Sarkisian has made a total of five pledges to the 2022 class and it is currently ranked No. 7 in the country according to 247Sports.

The coaching staff recently released the cycle’s motto as # 22EFFECT. Sarkisian is aware that this recruiting class will have a lasting effect on the foundation he builds with the Longhorns.

Here’s the recruiting tracker for Texas’s pivotal 2022 class.
